Are the neocons losing it?
William Kristol of the Weekly Standard now demands the firing of Donald Rumsfeld. William F. Buckley, whose National Review branded the anti-war right "unpatriotic conservatives" who "hate" America, now calls upon Bush for an "acknowledgement of defeat."
But it is a March 20 essay in the Wall Street Journal that suggests the neocons may be coming unhinged. Written by Weekly Standard executive editor Fred Barnes.. calls on Bush to fire press secretary Scott McClellan, chief of staff Andy Card, political adviser Karl Rove, National Security Adviser Stephen Hadley, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, Treasury Secretary John Snow and Vice President Richard Cheney.
"The trickiest issue is how to handle Karl Rove," says Barnes.
That Bush is in trouble is undeniable. But his people are not Bush's problem. His policies are. It is these policies, not his advisers, that have given us huge deficits, 12 million illegal aliens, a trade deficit running at $800 billion a year and a no-win war that is bleeding our country.
If Bush should follow Barnes' advice and throw his most loyal people to the wolves as a PR stunt, he will have earned their lasting contempt, and that of the country. For all will know he was scapegoating them for his own failures failures that come of having listened to the neocons who are even now slipping out of camp, rehearsing alibis and blaming Bush for not heeding their brilliant advi

Did you hear Pat lost an uncle at Auschwitz?
He fell out of the guard tower.
"Pesky Joooooooos" ping.
Another Recycled joke.
Any comment on the article?
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ... (puke)
The usual suspects..........
Yes. We should all pay attention because Pat is an expert on "losing it."
Pat's the one on the bandwagon playing the trombone with the fancy, swastika-spangled cloth cover.
That's right Pat, they're losing it. Who was that running mate you chose a few years ago?
There are no neo-cons. They are a made-up category of strawmen. If the neo-cons seem to be disenchanted now, it is that the straw population of the category can do whatever Pat imagines.
The only people besides Pat that I'd like to never hear from again is Bill Kristol and McCain.
Buchanan's neoisolationist drivel is getting tired. Nothing new in that article. Pat must have wore his forearm out wacking off the day Buckley wrote that statement: "AT LAST, SOMEONE AGREES WITH ME!"
The Iraq war is unwinnable? Yeah, for the Jihadists maybe...unless we follow Pat's script and quit. Then we will have handed them a major victory on a silver platter. That strategy worked just great in Beirut and Mogadishu! Good idea Pat!
The cost of failure by pulling out of Iraq would be many times worse than the impact of losing the Vietnam war. Pulling out of Iraq will not make the Islamofascists leave us alone. Their goal is still the re-establishment of the caliphate and imposition of sharia law around the globe. Pulling out of Iraq will only embolden them. And the only way we can lose in Iraq is to quit.
Time for Pat to retire.
Pot and age.

Can't deny that!
So anyone who hates Bush automatically "hates America?"
Bush = America?
Inside the "Beltway" conservatives versus "butthead conservatives"...

Bill Kristol could would have to get as nutty as Buchanan for me to ever forget the hilarious quip he made to Sam Donaldson on this week with David Brinkley. He's my idol just for that.
