“Krauthammer may have some odd opinions from time to time, but he is not a liberal for cripes sake.”

He may not be a leftist but he is a liberal, like many neoconservatives- essentially they were once the Scoop Jackson wing of the Democratic Party who parted company with the Democrats over Carter’s foreign policy and decided to ally themselves with Ronald Reagan.

Clyde Wilson wrote of this invasion of re-badged liberals:

” The offensives of radicalism have driven vast herds of liberals across the border into our territories. These refugees now speak in our name, but the language they speak is the same one they always spoke.”

However unlike many neocons Krauthammer didn’t support Ronald Reagan; in fact Krauthammer wrote speeches for Walter Mondale in 1984, trying to defeat Reagan in the 1984 campaign.

So I’m not sure when Kraut began passing himself off as a sort of conservative, but he’s been doing it for long enough to convince people that’s what he is. So while I’m glad that he’s not working for the other side anymore, I don’t trust his judgement or his motives. The same goes for Michael Medved.

I think this pretty well sums up his 2008 vote:

Gee, if you think that facts matter anymore around here, think again............

Why would you be willing to criticize someone who criticizes Obama?

Think.

Ditto on both. These are former moderate liberal Democrats.
Krauthammer was absolutely giddy on Fox News, when they announced Obama the winner. I’ll never forget that lugubrious unrelenting grin on his face. I was mortified!!

“”krauthammer is a liberal... he was born to liberal dim parents... registered as a dim... worked for mondale and then carter... attacked Reagan for a paycheck... plays a conservative for the pay check. He and fred barnes were both orgasmic on fox news election night 2008... I have it recorded to DVD. “ LLS I don’t have to see the DVD...I remember it like it was yesterday. see post 28

A lot of us know Kraut’s liberal past and his neo-con leanings, but you made a claim about his 2008 vote and jessd smoked you on it.

“I’ll have no truck with the phony case ginned up to rationalize voting for the most liberal and inexperienced presidential nominee in living memory. “
- C. Krauthammer, Oct 2008

He is paid well to write whatever his bosses tell him to write. george will, peggy noonan and bill kristol are no different. When you need them most... their true colors show... and have since they began their careers. I know what krauthammer is... you are still in denial... so are many more. Some even think fox is still conservative. Some do not want to see the truth... I trust no one but GOD so it matters not to me.

Smoked me? Did he wrap me in a small thin paper beforehand or did he just pack me into the bowl of a pipe?

You mean like the editorial I gave you a LINK to that tore Zero a new one, a few days before the ‘08 election? Cripes.

A lifetime of liberalism is not changed by a handful of op- eds, when the world can see the failure of who and what obama is... and that does not make krauthammer a conservative. I do not care what you think... we can disagree about krauthammer. I am an extreme right wing Conservative so maybe what passes for Conservatism for you does not pass the test for me. It does not matter... my opinion and yours will have no effect on anything beyond this thread.
