KRAUTHAMMER TO PBS HOST: YOU MANAGE TO INTRODUCE A ‘HELL OF A LOT OF BIAS’

Wow. I said it the other day and I say it again. What in the world is come over Charles Krauthammer? Some of you guys said he sees the "writing on the wall". Maybe. However, this is the 3rd time in the last few days that I've counted where he's made some really refreshing commentary.

First he says Gov. Sarah Palin has a good chance of winning the Presidental election & he didn't diss her. Then, he slammed Obama for "summoning" the Speaker of the House to the White House and schooled Obama that the three branches of government are EQUAL. Now, he seems to take a stand for the Tea Party against a liberal PBS host' bias questioning.

Keep it Krauthammer, and maybe we'll take back some of the things we said about you. LOL.

Indeed. Please do keep it up Krauthammer. It's nice to have you back.

I'll bet he's started to read FR.

Maybe he's even joined; tried to mouth the DC talking points; gotten completely PWN3D; and then started to adjust his thinking.

Cheers!

The Hammer has finally begun to understand just how corrupt and decadent the Beltway elites really are.

And the scales fell from his eyes.

Well, we do our best. We don’t have the vast resources of Rupert Murdoch and Fox News

And then Nina Totenberg LAUGHS like it's the most hysterical thing in the world--to make a joke about FOX! HA HAAAAA HAAAAA!

This is what passes for witty comebacks with libs, I guess.

I saw him on Fox last week, can’t remember the specifics, but I think it was him NOT bashing Michele Bachmann and I was surprised. If this is the new and improved Krauthammer, not bashing conservatives especially female conservatives, I welcome it. I’m not ready to sing Kumbaya with him yet, though, lol. We’ll see.

Maybe he’s finally grown a pair. If he keeps this up I might actually start respecting him again

What a hyena hag .. she’s detestable, an outright liar.

The Kraut’s been getting in a lot of digs lately on that show, on which he’s the only non-kool-aid sipping lib. He’s very quick and was supreme on this one .. worth watching.

Her laugh was so phony, like she wasn’t laughing about a funny line (which it wasn’t) but in glee that the evil FOX was getting a dig—as if FOX is the only news organization with, you know, an owner.

Damn, every time I see her, I get the image of Lily Tomlin’s phone operator stuck in my mind. Nina Totenberg really does look like someone who sucks lemons.

No great insight here. Given a few more weeks, even Charlie Sheen will be able to knock off the Wee Wee.

Then, he ... schooled Obama that the three branches of government are EQUAL ...

Krauthammer is wasting his breath. The Community Organizer and Constitutional Scholar has such a deep mind that he has threatened to veto a proposed constitutional amendment before it is sent to the 57 states for ratification.

Now, he seems to take a stand for the Tea Party against a liberal PBS host' bias questioning ...

... which is like pointing out that the sky is blue and dirt is brown. Where I grew up, we used to call this "poofing marshmallows."

Bottom Line: I don't see any great change or great new insights coming from the former Carter adviser / Wally Mondale speechwriter.

MJaybe he got to thinking: Wow, I’m sounding just like the a-holes I have always rejected. Maybe I should say things differently.

He's no fool, maybe he sees that the tide has turned. Either that or he ran into Gurgan or Noonan and had what they call a “scared sober” moment.

Good grief. You’re missing the whole point. What you say is your opinion and you may be right. The point is that at least he’s not turning on and dissing conservatives. Even if it seems to you that he’s wasting his breath on schooling Obama, at least he’s speaking out and criticizing the idiot. Again, he’s taking a stand and not just sitting there letting the liberals get away with out challenging them or pressing back.

Good grief man!

NO, you are missing the point. As much as I and most conservatives admire and respect Charles Krauthammer, he has been a reluctant and inconsistant supporter of hard core Tea Party Conservatives. He has consistantly supported the establishment RINO republicans.

that is quite a change...he used to snort at her...Krauthammer is a NeoCon...Jewish or not...he just is

a lightweight what culture war refugee from Marty Peretz's New Republic..along with plenty others..not all Jewish either but they kind of got a new thing going late 80s or so

Kraut is wrong on abortion, stems, illegals and guns..and prolly some other stuff but those are the biggies

you joking...Kraut is no Levin

not even close

William Kristol is more a culture warrior than Chuck

Krauthammer would loathe Free Republic...you might as well find Colin Powell or Scott Brown lurking

Darn it, no they aren't.

Congress can impeach and remove from office any executive official or judge, giving it in the final analysis ultimate control over the executive and judicial branches. Congress also can defund any executive action or agency and can limit the jurisdiction of federal judges.

Meanwhile the executive and judicial branches have no real powers usable against Congress, unlike the British system for example, where the executive can call new elections at any time.

Maybe Kraut has finally joined the party. Tea Party that is.
