Why defend Kristol, EV?

I don't...I don't even like him...I consider him to be an arrogant *ss.

It's just that some here tend to go off into tinfoil-land about him sometimes. They seem to see him behind every tree trunk.

That's because every time there is an issue that is quite divisive to the party, I look over at a nearby tree-trunk, and by golly, there is Bill Kristol!

I suppose it could be a coincidence.

Just like it was a coincidence that Kristol reported this conference call story on NPR.

Or the coincidence that he had the scoop on Jeffords' switch.

Or the infamous "Our National Humiliation" column he wrote about the China plane incident, before we had the crew back.

Or the fact that he was pushing Colin Powell for President before he ended up with McCain.

Or the fact that he now consistently disses Powell, the same man he pushed as a presidential candidate 3 years ago.

The pattern is that he almost always surfaces whenever there is an issue divisive to the Republicans, and very often if he has not actually instigated it, he makes sure to fan the flames of discord.

So you can think I am in tin-foil land. I don't care. Kristol got information from someone, and I want to know who. I think it quite possible that he has embellished and /or manufactured a portion of this story.

Oh good, I do too. It's just that I remember that he was Alan Keyes roomate in college, and ran his Senate campaign. And at times, it's strange where the support for Kristol will pop up......
