Krauthammer is also an avid gun control advocate, so I’ve never considered him much of a conservative, or any kind of voice for the typical Republican...
Yes, he does slip up and show his elitist side once in a while. He may be a “conservative” as far as beltway TV goes, but he is not conservative as I understand that to mean in Texas.
That's because Krauthammer is and has long been a voice for establishment Republicans, just like Bill Kristol, Fred Barnes, et al. It was Krauthammer who said on Special Report "An Obama administration won't be that bad".....
I'm tired of the CK is Smart meme. He isn't. He was part of the slavish Obama worshipers a mere year ago, calling him "eloquent."
I looked up his creds on Wiki. He majored in poly sci, and got into med school at Harvard.
Just how did he manage that? Every doc I've ever known had a degree in some science because of all the math and science prereqs for medical school. I did know one who first got a degree in art, but went back and did her prereqs for med school, which gave her a second degree in bio.
How did he get into med school? Family connections, maybe?
So he gets to say he's a doctor, but he doesn't seem to have ever had a clinical practice.
