'Conservative' Bill Kristol mocks as Pence touts keeping Bibles in VA hospitals
Bill Kristol ^ | Aug 28 2019 | Bill Kristol

From Bill Kristol's twitter feed tonight:

''For some reason, Mike Pence portentously proclaiming that “The Bible Stays” reminds me of the popular two-line bumper sticker in Boston during my college years: First line: “Jesus Saves” Second line: “But Esposito Scores on the Rebound.”''

All Freepers who used to love Kristol and his Iraq War should reconsider what conservatism is really about.

For the Kristol war-lovers, the sum and substance of "conservatism" is a brutal foreign policy of never-ending "regime change" wars. That's their agenda, start to finish. When Trump didn't embrace it, they abandoned him, willing to let Hillary pack the Supreme Court and set national policy, including discrimination against people of faith. Kristol was ok with Hillary because Kristol is not a conservative - just a war monger.

Take note of any Republican who hires this smirking t-rd as a consultant in the future.

Mr. Bill, you’re sounding catty, snotty & weak here lately.
Was that your intention?

Kristol is a complete has-been looking for some way to grab a hand-hold on his descent into total anonymity.

Ridiculously railing against Bibles in VA hospitals ain’t gonna do it.

Labeling Kristol “ conservative” is a flagrant violation of Truth In Advertising regulations!

He’s one of the “chosen.”
Chosen but for what?

Bill Kristol is the personification of the Washington Elite. The elite at the top may be Republican or Democrat but they are elite first and have no real inner standards except power for the elite. They will defend each other even though the other is of the opposite party as they are the true party of the elite.

They hate Trump as he is not the elite but of the American people which the elite not only despise but hold in contempt.

You know I have never cared what this man has ever had to say, TV being my only source and his expressions and mannerisms just did not sit well with me, I suppose.

They hate Trump as he is not the elite

As Tucker Carlson shows in his book, Kristol hates Trump for a very specific reason: Trump denounced the Iraq war. Trump was the first major GOP candidate to break the Republican taboo about speaking publicly against the Iraq War. Kristol is a war monger who was one of the Iraq wars major advocates. He wants the GOP to stay in lockstep behind the neocon warmongering foreign policy. Trump threatened Kristol hold on the GOP’s mind and policy, turning the party away from supporting perpetual war. This infuriates Kristol

Tucker documents it. He shows that Kristol wasn’t objecting to Trump - until the South Carolina primary debate, when Trump denounced the Iraq War. That transformed Kristol into a raving nevertrumper, and he’s only become more fevered as the years have gone on

Looks like his hate of Trump is steeped in communism forbiding that citizens have bibles to moralize a corrupt government.

Wtf , the Kristol who went after Saddam is just as bad as Saddam

Bill Kristol has a warm, bright future as a charcoal briquette wherein he will burn, writhe and smoulder for all eternity. Keep up the great work, Billy boy. You're batting 1000.

Yes but please don’t become a Putinista or Pat Buchanan mouthpiece in response. (Not that Buchanan doesn’t make any right points...at times he does) — but sometimes anti “neocon” mania drifts off into bizarre World War II revisionism. (“America should have never entered the war.” “The Marshall Plan was a waste.”) Oh and anti-Semitism.

Not EVERYTHING the US has done abroad in 20th Century is all bad.
