Bill Kristol Announces, ‘There Will Be An Independent Candidate’
Breitbart ^ | 29 May 2016 | Patrick Howley

Posted on 05/29/2016 7:16:43 PM PDT by detective

Neoconservative political operative Bill Kristol announced Sunday that an independent candidate will enter the presidential race to challenge both Donald Trump and the Democratic Party nominee.

Kristol, the editor of The Weekly Standard, has been trying for months to find a third-party challenger since his preferred candidates lost in the Republican primaries to Trump. Now, just weeks after meeting with Mitt Romney to talk about a third-party run, Kristol hinted Sunday that his plot is coming to fruition.

Glad my kids always called me a PALEOCON (as in Paleolithic), they both think I am some kind of Attila/Genghis Kahn type of personality.
THANK GOD.

Nope, still lots of time to hire canvassers to get signatures on petitions from Dem voters.

Kristol thinks he’s Randolph Hearst LOL!

I’ll fill in the blank for you.
Bill Kristol needs to be HORSE-F#CKED by a really big __________ gangbanger in the nearest State Prison.
You get to fill in that blank.

From WIKI-

"Neoconservatives typically advocate the promotion of democracy and promotion of American national interest in international affairs, including by means of military force, and are known for espousing disdain for communism and for political radicalism.

I agree with the above characterization, thereby making me a "NEOCON".

More from WIKI:

Prominent neoconservatives in the George W. Bush administration included Paul Wolfowitz, John Bolton, Elliott Abrams, Richard Perle, and Paul Bremer. Senior officials Vice President Dick Cheney and Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, while not identifying as neoconservatives, listened closely to neoconservative advisers regarding foreign policy, especially the defense of Israel and the promotion of democracy in the Middle East. Neoconservatives continue to have influence in the Obama administration, and neoconservative ideology has continued as a factor in American foreign policy.[2][3]

Dick Cheney, John Bolton, and Donald Rumsfeld are the recent officials that I have the greatest respect for. I pray that they all find positions of influence in the Trump 1 administration.

Given that Trump has repeatedly expressed his disdain for the Bush/Cheney/Rumsfeld Iraq policies I don’t think you should expect to see Cheney or Rumsfeld involved with a Trump administration.

I have to say that I strongly supported the Bush admin. Iraq intervention at the time, but I never imagined or expected that the aftermath could be handled so badly. I dislike the way that Trump describes the issues wrt Iraq, but I’ve come to agree with him that we never should have gone into that ####hole in 2003. Hindsight is too easy, of course.

Biil Kristol, Mitt Romney, Ted Cruz.....they all are just similar versions of “Nutcase” Glenn Beck. I suspect their powerful candidate is either Eric Cantor or, Michelle Fields!!! LMAO!!!

Kristol is the consummate Globalist. His greatest fear is the end of our “rulers.” He’s done and is too stupid to see it. As it turns out, the great “unwashed” is a lot smarter than he is. We can see right thru him. Get a clue, Bill. We are strong. We are steadfast. We’re done with the likes of you. Now sit down and shut the heck up! Keep it up and you will join the ranks of traitors of the USA. We’re in no mood to tolerate traitors. Pack it up and get the H*ll out of the USA.

Of course. Hillary is one of them, the Globalist cabal pushing for the NWO and the dissolution of the USA. It’s that last hour and we’re hanging by a thread. Unite NOW to stop their destruction of all we hold dear. Kristol has so thoroughly exposed the R&D as co-conspirators to take our nation away. Not happening Kristol. Tar and feathers are in your future. Traitors to our United States. Watch what you ask for, you just might get it. History will not be kind to the GLobalist conspirators.

The timeline falls basically in June, July, August 2016 for an independent candidate to
submit the required signatures to get on the general election ballot. Some may do it in
a state or two just for self gratification but serious attempts will be limited, imo.

They should get zero attention. There is NO candidate who could conceivably pull from Trump.

“I truly despise these people. Cannot do what is right for this country if their lives depended on it.”

I agree 150%. Irony is, 10-15 years ago, I subscribed to the Weekly Standard & National Review. At the time, it seemed to me that they put forth completely reasonable Conservative positions. I had no idea whatsoever what traitors they were. I’m truly amazed how I (we?) can be fooled by these hucksters. Also makes me wonder if I am being similarly fooled today, and by whom.......

Names that go down in history which will it be Mitt Romney or Mitt Benedict Arnold Romney? Where has honor gone? I feel so much shame for the those who refuse to stay the course which should be Never Hillary Never a Democrat. True allegiances seem to be emerging, shameful.

They had me conned too, they had us all conned; but I woke up and the country is walking up. What he is doing now is tantamount to treason.

Kristol is way past his sell by date. He needs to retire and contemplate his navel.
