Nail on the head. It’s nothing but power for the ruling class, whether it’s right or left.
Beck knows Kristol is bona fide Bilderberger. That worries me about Palin. Maybe she was a “patsy”.
Kristol has always seemed to be a snarky, elite member of the “Ruling Class”. Sometimes George Will strikes me the same way.
He isn’t wrong about them.
What the heck is he talking about? In what way is supporting democracy (a la Kristol) in Egypt a power-preserving ploy? What Beck says doesn’t make any sense. Sorry.
Um...Glenn...no...Dole isn't the one who Kristol is (or was) pushing.
But, I still love ya, Glenn.
agree.
i’ve always thought that bill kristol was a rino.
Hosni is likely FAR preferable to what's coming, and Kristol recognizes that. Kristol has also been one of Sarah Palin's biggest supporters, so he hasn't exactly taking the RINO party line lately.

It sounds like Glenn Beck needs to hold another million person gathering at Washington DC just to let Bill Kristol know in no uncertain terms that most conservatives listen to Beck and a few conservatives put up with Kristol.
Kristol is a faux conservative.
Beck is right on target.
The other journalists who met Palin offered similarly effusive praise: Michael Gerson called her “a mix between Annie Oakley and Joan of Arc.” The most ardent promoter, however, was Kristol, and his enthusiasm became the talk of Alaska’s political circles. According to Simpson, Senator Stevens told her that “Kristol was really pushing Palin” in Washington before McCain picked her. Indeed, as early as June 29th, two months before McCain chose her, Kristol predicted on “Fox News Sunday” that “McCain’s going to put Sarah Palin, the governor of Alaska, on the ticket.” He described her as “fantastic,” saying that she could go one-on-one against Obama in basketball, and possibly siphon off Hillary Clinton’s supporters. He pointed out that she was a “mother of five” and a reformer. “Go for the gold here with Sarah Palin,” he said. The moderator, Chris Wallace, finally had to ask Kristol, “Can we please get off Sarah Palin?”
The next day, however, Kristol was still talking about Palin on Fox. “She could be both an effective Vice-Presidential candidate and an effective President,” he said. “She’s young, energetic.” On a subsequent “Fox News Sunday,” Kristol again pushed Palin when asked whom McCain should pick: “Sarah Palin, whom I’ve only met once but I was awfully impressed by—a genuine reformer, defeated the establishment up there. It would be pretty wild to pick a young female Alaska governor, and I think, you know, McCain might as well go for it.” On July 22nd, again on Fox, Kristol referred to Palin as “my heartthrob.” He declared, “I don’t know if I can make it through the next three months without her on the ticket.”

Right on, Beck. Of course Kristol doesn’t understand what conservatism is - he’s a neoconservative, a ‘new conservative’, intellectual descendants of former Marxists, come to tell those always-conservative what conservatism is to become now. They make as much sense as an ‘old-fashioned modernist’.
BINGO!
