and 24 months after the election
May I utilize these 2 clever noms de plume? Huckabigot and pig eyed fornicating Newt
Years ago I would read Will’s columns religiously in the newspaper. On Sundays I would watch him on that David Brinkley show with Sam Donaldson and Cokie Roberts. I watched that show for a while even after Brinkley left. Methinks that Will spent far too much time around Donaldson and Cokie. Slowly, and after a while, I stopped watching that show, and eventually gave up on Sunday newspapers too. I haven’t read Will in years. There’s no point. He passed the expiration date stamped on his forehead about 10 years ago. Meaning, he should have retired and just gone to ballparks to spend his declining years watching ballgames, and maybe issuing an occasional missive about the sorry state of major league baseball.
George Will never explained why Steve Malzberg’s question isn’t relevant to America. He simply ASSUMES that those questions are the stuff of conspiracy theories.
But the fact still remains, all of the above things that Malzberg wants America to know about were STANDARD information open to the public by previous presidents.
For instance, We know the college grades of Al Gore, John Kerry and Dubya (we also know that all of them did not get good grades). We know that Hillary wrote her college thesis about Saul Alinsky.
Now, we know almost nothing about Obama’s academic life in college. Why is ASKING that question out of bounds? Goerge Will never answers that question in his column.
Huckabee is either remarkably uninformed, or has access to information that no one else seems to have. Obama grew up in Kenya with his father? People who get stuff like that wrong are extremely dangerous to our side, IMHO. Little hooks like that will be used by our enemies to discredit even guys like Rush.
ML/NJ
I think Will is one of those alleged “conservatives” that continues to feed the impression of a tired, elite, appeasing has-been.
While I am sure that he is a very smart guy, smart guys are just as prone to staying in the same old groove that they so fondly remember from years ago.
Things have changed, and it appears that Mr. Will, intellect and all, does not get it at this point. Perhaps he’s been on the lefty “cocktails 7:00” list a bit too long.
And everything the Post tells him they learned from reading Ubama's two books.
Meanwhile...
For the purposes of discussion, let’s stipulate that Obama was born in Hawaii and is legally qualified to be POTUS. How is it I know W had a better academic record than either Kerry or Gore but I know nothing about Obamas record? Why does he have a CT social security number and why did he not register for Selective Service as required?
Why all the secrecy about this man?
If he had exclusive information, he would not be walking it back as misspeaking. Our natural inclination to infer innocent motives can cause us to err. Huckabee knew he was bearing false witness. The truth is all we need. His self promoting lies make the truth all the harder to obtain.
American Thinker is a group of attorneys who blog in their spare time between major cases, so their writing skills are necessarily excellent.
Well, maybe I should reconsider that “necessarily”. Obama is a lawyer and the only example of his writing, that we are sure wasn’t really written by William Ayers, was terrible
They say Einstein couldn’t write either. Do the math... If O is 10X as brilliant as AE, (and he surely is) then he obviously can’t be exected to write. :)
George Will’s introduction of Daniels at CPAC was enough to make me realize that Daniels does not have a chance. It was all too clubby and chardonnay.
This deserves to be at the top of the list.
