As I’ve been reading and listening around the web, I find very few now who are willing to jump the shark with George Will and declare John Roberts an absolute genius.
Last night, Charles Krauthammer backpeddled and said basically he, as a psychiatrist, was attempting to explain why Roberts did what he did. His best bet was that Roberts thought Roberts was doing something good (to which O’Reilly interjected “that’s insane”), but that his analysis is only an attempt to explain. He thinks personally that it was a terrible decision.
Steyn thinks Roberts would be on the left in Dear Old Canada.
Rush thinks it’s deceitful betrayal.
Paul Ryan says it’s a terrible decision.
Against that are a few lightweights who would have us believe that by surrendering on the issue that Roberts has stepped into the realm of Eternity-Class Strategerists.
Let me suggest that Eisehower should have approached FDR with this plan: “Franklin, here’s what we’ll do. I will cross the channel and then surrender the entire army to the Bosch. That will so over-burden their prison system that they will topple from the inside.”
It’s called the “Unconditional Surrender” Strategy...the same that was used with tremendous success in....uh...and uh....
