The Conservative Sensibility - George F. Will (new book)
youtube ^ | 6/2/2019 | Self

Posted on 06/02/2019 12:20:22 PM PDT by Eddie01

George Will has a new book.

Conservatives hate him.

The left hates him (or do they?).

Who is his market other than Fred Barns, Mort Kondracke, Bill Kristol, Michael Medved, Chris Wallace and possibly Ann Coulter?

At least his wife still lets him watch her put her socks on.

George Will was semi useful back when the debate was about marginal tax rates and the Soviet Union. He has no answers for tranny reading hour or the invasion at the border. His time has passed.

About 30 years ago George Will wrote a preachy book called The Pursuit of Virtue and Other Tory Notions. He wrote this book about "virtue" while he was banging his secretary and cheating on his wife. That told me all I ever needed to know about preachy George Will.

“George Will was semi useful back when the debate was about marginal tax rates and the Soviet Union.”

In the nineties he was telling audiences Americans are “underrated”. I think he got over that eventually

I was so surprised to learn he’s an atheist or some variety of nonbeliever. Always assumed he was a high church Episcopalian

Will had a great article about abortion back in the late 80s. He has a son who is mentally affected and wrote a good editorial on a society which values such people as throwaways.

Otherwise, I haven’t had much use for him in decades. Credit where credit is due, though. It was a fine and courageous piece.

Obviously, that's what he considers the conservative sensibility - ignoring problems, and letting the rot take hold.

All the old pretend right-wingers are coming out of their respective holes. Hope they duck right back in. They should all finally retire and raise chickens somewhere.

Had never heard the story of Will’s infidelity.
My opinion of will will change from:
He is a scumbag who was good to Scumbag

Eff you George Will and your Communist Red Book full of nonsense.

You were a smart man whose brain went sideways, and you should NOT have allowed that to happen.
