We may have hit a new low in the category of tasteless, ignorant comments made by one pundit about another . . .
Politico has an article today about Charles Krauthammer rightly depicting him as an eminently articulate and influential conservative critic of Pres. Obama. Then comes this [emphasis added]:
“There’s something tragic about him too,” Klein said, referring to Krauthammer’s confinement to a wheelchair, the result of a diving accident during his first year of medical school. “His work would have a lot more nuance if he were able to see the situations he’s writing about.”

What a scumbag-—typical too!
I’m sure his mamma is/would be proud of him and the way she raised him: utter lack of class.
Wow a homerun in one sentence! Liberals are fond of making fun of the disabilities of people they don’t like AND of accusing anyone they disagree with of not being “nuanced” (whatever the hell that really means) but I don’t think I’ve ever seen it done before in the same sentence!
What a douchebag.
Leftists should be shunned, and “we” allowed them to be mainstreamed. They were always an ignorant boorish bunch of commie instigator SOB’s, never to be taken seriously.
During WWII Hitler took ever tighter control of the military, sending ever more detailed commands from Berlin - yea, down to the platoon level. Of course, Hitler was giving those commands only on the basis of radioed reports; he couldn't see the facts on the ground.So if we are ever tempted to put Charles Krauthammer in the pentagon and give him operational control of a squad of troops in Afghanistan, I think the issue of his not being able to see the terrain and talk to the troops might come into play.
Not sure if this is worse for the companies he represents
or ..
if it indicates that he still confuses his DNC-procto exams
as some kind of special radar for him or periscope.
According to the left the disabled are a protected class, and like blacks, the homeless, women, the poor,they are always presumed to be noble - until they get out of line.
The leftists would be more than happy to imprison or even kill someone like Krauthammer, who they consider “dangerous”. That is theitr favorite word for any non-leftist, especially a smart one.
Being a Moron does classify as a disability under 0bama.
Leaving aside the ugliness of the comment, what does it even mean?
It’s like the Special Olympics, or something...
Joe Klein is an asshat. I saw him recently on Howie Kurtz’s show (can’t remember the name), with Amanda Carpenter, and he basically bullied her on the air, totally discounting her point of view.
He’s written vile crap for years. He, and Barbara Ehrenreich are the major reasons that I do not subscribe to Time Magazine anymore. ‘Pod.
I told someone yesterday...I’d rather be a liberal trapped in a room of conservatives, than a conservative trapped in a room of liberals. I reminded him that liberals are the most hateful people I’ve ever encountered.
My liberal friend (whom I’m workin’ on) paused quietly and said “It’s possible that there is a tiny bit of truth in what you say.”
This “project” is going to take a while, I’m thinkin’....
Klein is a lowlife. Just look at him. Total sleazebag.
Dr Charles is one of the very best and brightest on our side. The only show I watch regularly is Special Report All Star segment.
I see Charles on the FOX panel all the time and - until I saw this post - forgot Charles was in a wheelchair.
Liberals never grow up. They never mature.
What is this phallus head saying? That Charles would be a liberal like me if he could walk?
In his zeal to insult the man, he nuanced himself right out of the ballpark. Disgusting really.
Nuance what a ridiculous word to use why is subtle so important?
