I am well aware of your dislike for Bill Kristol.

So he didn't want GW to be president (no secret). It does not mean he wants the administration disgraced by scandal. It wouldn't be good for Republicans of ANY stripe. For the record, I originally said he doesn't want the Bush adminstration to "go down," not that he didn't want any harm to come it.

I suggest you gather more evidence to support your Jeffords theory. Grins on television just doesn't cut it.

Kristol is and will continue to remain one of the brightest minds in the conservative movement.

This bright mind of the conservative movement was pushing Colin Powell as president for quite some time. Do you have a conservative explanation for that?

Yes, I dislike Kristol. I gave reasons why, and even sai that my suspicioun about Jeffords was just that...a suspicion.

How about addressing all the rest of my points?
