Nolte: Bill Kristol Reminds Me of a Guy I Knew Who Went to Prison
Big Journalism (Breitbart) ^ | January 30, 2018 | John Nolte

Posted on 01/30/2018 8:39:12 PM PST by Tolerance Sucks Rocks

Reading Bill Kristol’s latest emasculated flail of a troll — the desperation, the manipulation, the intellectual dishonesty, the mind and word games, the cuddling with evil at NBC News — it all took me back to early 1985, to a guy I knew who ended up in prison.

Eager for adventure and to be on my own, just a few months after (barely) graduating high school I lit out for south Florida from rural Wisconsin. It was an amazing time, the Miami Vice-era. Although I was on the Gulf Coast and not in Miami, the pastels, neons, and building boom were in full swing. So was the drug trade.

In short time, I rented a room for $50 a week and found a job at the local mall.

Tony was probably not his real name. I don’t remember his real name. This was over 30 years ago. But I do remember Tony.

Just a few weeks after I arrived, Tony and his meager belongings rented one of the other three rooms in that broken down house. He was about 40 with slick black hair and a wiry frame; a sweaty little guy, a chain smoker and beer drinker. But his pencil-thin mustache did give him a debonair quality.

Tony’s clothes were like Tony — flashy, but frayed. From far away, he looked like Robert Goulet. Up close, he looked like what he was — a low-level con man and dealer who hustled up just enough to keep himself in smokes and Budweiser. Even making minimum wage, I worked fewer hours and made more money than Tony ever did. He didn’t care. He loved the grift, the self-delusion he was getting one over on the rest of the world.

He has always reminded me of the German tank officer in Kelly's Heroes.

Hilarious.

The Kristol engaging in revenge-sex with, oh, Elizabeth Warren.

We just laugh our derision.

Bill Kristol is fading away like the faint buzzing of a mosquito in the very far distance, possibly slightly annoying, but of no real consequence and soon to be of no consequence at all.

Is that the guy that Don Rickles said, “Maybe he’s a Republican” when asking him to blow up the bank vault?

It seems his son in law was the original guy that initiated the dossier, if memory serves me.....this is why Panty Waist Kristol is out there moonwalking on the circuit.....he’s gotta try to deflect attention away from his family on this dossier thing

Off subject but not much— have got another for you— Adam Schiff with bulging eyeballs.... looks a lot like Andy Kauffman— a real looney looking liberal liar. He and Kristol would get along real well.

Once I woke up and immediately puked a little for no discernible reason. He reminds me of that.

Schiff = Sheriff Woody (Toy Story).

I can also buy-in to A. Kaufman as Latka (Taxi).

Kristol and Schiff both make me think of guys that hang around bus stations trying to pick up young boys.

“The Washington Free Beacon, a neoconservative news website edited by Bill Kristol’s son-in-law Matthew Continetti, is revealed to have been the original financier of Fusion GPS’ anti-Donald Trump effort.“
