Kristol Offers Neoconservative Prescription For America’s Woes: ‘Be Happy!’
Kristol Offers Neoconservative Prescription For America’s Woes: ‘Be Happy!’
In Time Magazine yesterday, Weekly Standard editor Bill Kristol wrote a rosy piece on why Americans should get over their “adolescent moodiness” and embrace the “heartening developments” of the past six years.
In the op-ed, Kristol came to the conclusion that “no other people in human history have ever had it quite so good” as Americans. But in reaching that false conclusion, Kristol severely distorts and even lies about major developments:
Claim #1: There have been “very limited terrorist successes in Europe or even in the Middle East.” Between 2005 and 2006, international terrorist attacks increased 29 percent, reported U.S. intelligence. Forty-five percent of the attacks took place in Iraq. Between 2004 and 2005, international terrorist attacks tripled to nearly 10,000, in part due to the war in Iraq.
Claim #2: “We’ve had 5 1/2 years of robust economic growth.” Today, the top one percent of earners have a greater share of national income than at any time since 1920. Wage growth has slowed to a crawl, and “overall pace of job creation, which has slowed compared to prior years, is barely enough to keep pace with population growth.”
Claim #3: “The balance sheet is uncertain” in Iraq. Since January, violence “has increased in most provinces” and U.S. and Iraqi forces “have been unable to diminish rising sectarian violence contributing to the volatile security situation,” says a recent Pentagon report.
Kristol’s policy prescriptions have failed time and time again. In 2003, he claimed there was a “pop psychology” that “the Shia can’t get along with the Sunni. … There’s almost no evidence of that at all.” He advocated escalation, provided “optimistic” depictions of violence in Iraq, and supported the war so the U.S. can bomb Iraq and Syria.

Comment by Flaco — July 6, 2007 @ 2:17 pm
Hey Flucko, I consider every act of violence terror, so it’s been .0008 seconds since our last attack, and violence is on the rise in this country.
What a coincidence .0008 seconds is how long your GF said you last in bed. No wonder wackos like you think sex is only for creation, and not fun.
July 6th, 2007 at 2:25 pmHeh. Kristol’s always been good at this. Never fails to get under your skin while delivering good news to our own moron wing. We create the reality which you will then study - judiciously.
July 6th, 2007 at 2:26 pmOK, I’ll start the sing-along:
Though the war has no end in sight
July 6th, 2007 at 2:27 pmBe happy
Though we’re spied on day and night
Be happy…
“Kristol came to the conclusion that “no other people in human history have ever had it quite so good†as Americans”
Yeah, see? So what’s with all the complaining? IMPEACH!, IMPEACH! According to some guy in the Bush Admin. you’ve all got it better than anyone ever has! And by God, he should know!
Now, TP’ers…”should get over their “adolescent moodiness†and embrace the “heartening developments†of the past six years.”, if you can do this, you’ll truly be progressing. Where you’ll be progressing TO is anyone’s guess, though.
July 6th, 2007 at 2:28 pmThe answer is….Kristol, Rush, Laura!!!
The Question:
July 6th, 2007 at 2:28 pmThe Pharmacist for the following people is a multimillionaire?
Robust economy? Record national debt, zero net job growth (therefore no increase in the tax-base), increased living costs, lower real wages, lower GDP growth than half a dozen European nations… etc, etc.
Kristol is of course is touting assets and not liabilities, as usual.
July 6th, 2007 at 2:28 pmSo he was wrong in the beginning. He is wrong through the middle. And he is still wrong today. Quick question for TP: If you screwed up every portion of your job and your analysis was incorrect at every turn, would you still be employed? I didn’t think so. Why does kristol still have an audience?
July 6th, 2007 at 2:28 pmLauging and pointing isn’t ’studying judiciously’ to anybody but a Bushie…
July 6th, 2007 at 2:29 pm#26: WTF? Our unemployment rate is less than 5% wheras in Europe it’s typically oer 10%.

There is only one thing that can be said about Kristol - he’s an idiot. I don’t understand why anyone gives him a platform to spout his blather considering the fact that he is NEVER correct in what he predicts and what he says are usually gross distortions of the truth.
July 6th, 2007 at 2:33 pmDear William Kristol,
You have betrayed your father and the ideals of this nation. To coin a phrase, go f*ck yourself!

Comment by BottomBoy
Thoughtful people would not compare our unemployment rate with another country - let alone another continent. It doesn’t work that way. And rather than simply look at how many of us are working - you may want to consider what types of jobs are available for those who wish to work. yeah, go get a job at Mcdonalds or sweep floors - all kinds of jobs, huh? Problem there is they only pay a little north of minimum wage. We all know the minimum wage is not enough for most anybody to survive on. So I value your words, I just don’t know what idea you wanted to express.

July 6th, 2007 at 2:38 pmKristol: If you want to see Americans enjoying peace and prosperity, just look at the Clinton presidency. Outshines Bush on every front. Whereas Bush has failed by nearly every measure, Clinton succeeded. Jobs + Growth + Peace + Lower Poverty + Stock Market Boom = Happiness.
Thank you, President Clinton. Our prayers were answered.

You do realize that the 5% number is a skewed statistic based only on those who receive unemployment benefits, right? If your eligibility period expires and you still haven’t found work, you aren’t counted as unemployed anymore.

On topic. Kristol has been wrong about everything, I don’t know why he or the national review is even talked about anymore.
July 6th, 2007 at 2:41 pm#53: That seems to be the consensus in the fringe left. It doesn’t really matter if someone sets up a company, borrows a lot of money and takes all the risks. Somehow everyone in the company should be equal. Doesn’t make sense to me.

It’s funny. I looked at my words. I even had my boss look at my words. Neither of us could read where your comment would be appropriate. My position was not judge people working or wishing to work. My position was in not comparing dis-similar economies (USA vs Europe). I for one would always encourage people to work rather than rely on welfare (even two or three jobs). Your point there is correct. But still, even working people have trouble due to many factors related to lower wages, lack of health insurance, lack of transportation, etc…Thoughtful people would look at the gap being created which accounts for the difference between the highest paid and the lowest paid workers. the gap is expanding faster than ever - with no end in sight. Strong employment decreases elements of terrorism and creates strong self worth in people - just what the world needs now, no?

Seriously, if I were William Kristol, I wouldn’t be so smug right now. The fact is that the information about his complicity in everything from 911 to the present debacle in Iraq (he was one of the infamous “Architects”) is going to bite him where the sun don’t shine. His charade days are over and the public is onto his gig.

The many times I said it, I said UNIVERSAL healthcare. Where you see the word “free”? What makes you think that paying taxes AND a private insurance healthcare is being smarter than paying only taxes to have healthcare?
BTW, Mexican? Not close.

Ha ha ha!
All of the Straussians are being outed….finally!
Check out the book by Shadia B. Drury, “LEO STRAUSS AND THE AMERICAN RIGHT” and you will see that these thugs who are taking the kudos for inventing something new are simply whining plagiarists! Leo Strauss, Fascist Father of the Neo-Cons, had it all down pat back in the 60’s and early 70’s (he died in 1973).
Prior to old Leo The Fascist’s death, however, he managed to push through some 100+ PhD’s….who are now scattered through the country’s philosophy departments….in the Federalist Society….and the Bush Administration. The PNAC (those responsible for 911 and the Patriot Act) are all “Straussians”.
Chief among Straussian proteges is none other than the fraud, Paul Wolfowitz!! Imagine that??!!
Judge Clarence Thomas, Robert Bork and guess who???? None other than the neo-propagandist and former Dan Quayle Chief of staff:: THE ONE AND ONLY…….(DRUMROLL)……WILLIAM KRISTOL!!
But let’s certainly not fail to out the others here: former Sec’y of Education William Bennett, William Buckley, former Reagan Admin. official Alan Keyes, white house bio-ethics advisor Francis Fukuyama, John Ashcroft and William Galston….
Let’s bring all of these criminals to justice!

July 6th, 2007 at 3:03 pm#113: Those cooks wouldn’t be generating that revenue without the CEOs that run the infrastructure that actually employs those cooks. Do you think those jobs just appear out of nowhere. Do you think the corporation just appears out of nowhere? Do you think it would still stand if the CEOs left?
July 6th, 2007 at 3:04 pmJoker, you’ve said the Left is for Iran and the Right is for the Saudis, and the entire country is controlled by Muslims.

Bill also said on Fox that he thought American families could afford to sacrifice a few more sons and daughters. Even Chris Wallace went ballistic when he heard that.
July 6th, 2007 at 3:05 pmowlbear1. It boils down to this: there are always more people who’re capable of beings cooks and fewer of those who’re capable of doing what CEOs do. That’s why cooks are paid less.
July 6th, 2007 at 3:06 pmAnd the photo on this thread epitomizes the swine that Kristol, the neo-nazi, really is - smirking like a jacka$$! That smirk will be handily wiped off as he trots himself into jail one day.

Since I am an educated man, I always consider peoples words and how they pertain to myself and the world around me. And since I am an educated man, I looked at your words and tried very hard to make sense of them. I could not. YOU claim progessives are communist. YOU don’t cite any authority except YOU. YOU presume to label me (and millions of your neighbors) as a communist because we embrace change and a sense of fairness. YOU have decided things that your intellect is not built to withstand. YOU have written mental checks your brain cannot cash. It is unfortunate that people like yourself cannot see the damage you are doing to your reputation in the blogosphere. Anyway, I am glad you can write the english language. At least that is a start. Sheesh, please don’t have any children - they deserve much better than YOU.

#126: Wikipedia has a decent entry.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceo
CEO is in charge of total management . In contrast to cooks, plumbers and construction workers, it is impossible to to assign specific tasks for such a high level position. They are just in charge of everything - the buck stops on their desk. It’s the same thing as in academia when it comes to professors. They run the lab, only a handful of people could keep all those balls in the air at the same time and that’s why they’re paid more than a post-doc. A research group can’t exist without professor or the postdocs and students, but profs get paid more because they can’t be replaced. Postdocs and students can be. The same goes for cooks.
July 6th, 2007 at 3:13 pmJust think, in 563 days folks such as Kristol are going to become history.
Is there any doubt that their credibility will disappear when George W. Bush disappears?

Again, thoughts without attribution. Accusations without proof. Claims without support. Maybe if you read your own words and considered what they indicate as to your ability to communicate - you might just answer your own question. Compared to your example of thoughtful writing - a small pile of mulch would have created a much better point. If you think the left is holier than thou (we aren’t) you may want to stop writing as that just gives us plenty of reason to think we might be. Are there more like you at home (please no God).

See, it’s that ’sense of fairness’ that gets you labelled a communist. Socialism is all about the ‘greater good’ and redistribution of wealth. Some of your posters have been talking about it here, today as a matter of fact.
No one argues (well, that may not be entirely true) against folks being paid a livable wage, what they argue is the idea of taking from the rich (just because they have ‘more’) and re-distributing it to the poor (the have-nots).
July 6th, 2007 at 3:22 pmGod, I hate this smug SOB - that non-stop smirk and his serene conviction that he is a superior being just make we want to smack him. I’ll bet he got the snot pounded out of him in high school.

Comment by SGT Higgins
I get labeled by a nutjob as a communist and YOU support it? My sense of fainess has nothing to do with the type of government we (or any other country) has. My sense of fairness has nothing to do with politics, per se. Workers who bring more to the table, or take greater risks should be paid more. Why would anybody better themselves if we all got the same money? We wouldn’t. Nobody is claiming the cook should get more than the CEO (unless the cook IS the CEO). Some could argue that the CEO earning 1800 times what the average worker receives may be excessive - maybe, maybe not. That’s not my call. Again, I would caution you against presuming to know anything about me - certainly to the degree where you label me (or anybody) a communist. You make yourself appear foolish.

people like flaco, patrick1, and others are startingto get nervous because they are becoming increasingly aware of the fact that they elected a moron for president who ran the who conservative thing into the ground. even most ols school conservatives are having difficulty with this Big Spending brand of conservatism.
seriously–you guys had the upper hand for a while and the country gave GW a chance. now your own people are bailing on him. why do you think thats the case? how could so many generals get discusted with him? how could so many republican reps and senators get to the point where they had to stop drinking the koolaid? and why do almost 80% of the people in this country dislike that little monkey in the White House? could it be that you are supporting someone who is actually a VERY BAD PRESIDENT?
i see that a majority of people now want to impeach that Satanic vice president we have. how did that happen? the ‘liberal media’? or was it the day Rush Limbaugh said he was done ‘carrying water’ for the administration?
mark my words–even the King Bush apologist du jour, Wm. Kristol will bail before its over. Mary Maitlin has. Rush has. ill bet you even Georg Sr. has, privately. Rice is even concerned. so if thats the case–and it is, you must be too.

Oh, and to the “whites” reading this interchange, yours isn’t either a pure race. Britain, Germany, Poland, or Ireland suffered a good bunch of invasions along the years. So much for the “purity of blood”.
Sique Mamando los cojones del los Anglos!
Spanish orthography lesson #1 for bums: proverb and article contractions. Some proverbs followed by articles can be contracted in a single word. So, “del” is a contraction of “de” (proverb) and “el” (masculine singular), Lesson #2, putting two articles in line is WRONG, specially if you are referencing a different number and/or genre. So “del los” is WRONG WRONG WRONG, dum bass. Lesson #3: Do the ph#cking favor of not changing g per q. It makes you look very analphabetic. And “Anglos”? Please. Even in the white majority of the USA the “Anglos” are a minory. There are a lot of germans, poles, irish and mixed descendants. It’s a bad word even for slang. Oh, and “mamando” (sucking), although it sounds harsher than “chupando” (licking), it’s innacurate because the cojones haven’t a hole in them that can produce any liquid.

As a language, English is derived from the Anglo-Saxon, a West Germanic variety, although its current vocabulary includes words from many languages. The Anglo-Saxon roots can be seen in the similarity of numbers in English and German, particularly seven/sieben, eight/acht, nine/neun and ten/zehn. Pronouns are also cognate: I/ich; thou/Du; we/wir; she/sie.
You really are a dumbfu(k, aren’t you?
July 6th, 2007 at 4:09 pm#29 -
The 1.5 million people in US jails (7 times more than in the EU) are not considered “unemployed” in the US, nor are the millions who have stopped looking for a job. (Go check the US govt definition of unemployment.)
Once you get rid of distortions like this, you’ll find that the unemployment rates in the US and the EU are roughly the same. Labor force pariicipation in France is actually HIGHER than it is in the United States. So is social mobility - people born poor who move up.
And if we didn’t have 2 million people in the Armed Forces, our unemployment rate would be even higher.

July 6th, 2007 at 4:13 pmErr, ‘Stalinist Right-Wingers’? Let me fix that for you. ‘Nazi Right-Wingers’. Stalin’s economic philosophy was strongly left-wing — ultimate political control over the economy. Hitler and Mussolini were strong Right-Wing in the economic sector — both of them wanted hands off the Economy. But they did share something in common, along with Dubya. Both were intensely for the idea of taking control of the Citizen’s lives.
Oh, and Mr. P? Next time you want to spout off bullshit? Go to Wiki first.
“English is a West Germanic language originating in England, and the first language for most people in Australia, Canada, the Commonwealth Caribbean, Ireland, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States (also commonly known as the Anglosphere). It is used extensively as a second language and as an official language throughout the world, especially in Commonwealth countries such as India, Pakistan and South Africa, and in many international organisations.”
Will make you look less like an idiot. If you ment that English has been influenced by Latin and Greek during its development, you’d be closer on the mark, but German is English’s closer relative than either of those two languages.
July 6th, 2007 at 4:13 pmB & K are not lying, unless you’re using an old, outdated, bourgeois definition of ‘truth’ — a statement comporting with reality.
The ‘truth’ of an utterance is a function of whether it supports the Party and its leading role as Vanguard of the Revolution.
A ‘lie’ is a statement that does not advance the interests of the Party.
Brooks and Kristol are simply providing this new, revolutionary kind of truth.
And sailing the seas still depends on the Helmsman.

I guess TP is trying to weed out anyone who has a brain, so that all who are left will be the mindless followers of Islamo-Stalinism.
July 6th, 2007 at 4:16 pmWasn’t it Jon Stewart who recently asked if anyone has ever been seen actually buying The Weekly Standard?

You hit the nail on the head in focusing on the Neoconservative principles of Strauss. Francis Boyle had a very interesting piece on Infowars in January, and I have excerpted below.

Leading Academic: Neo-Nazis Have Signed Us Onto WWIII
Destroying World Order: Analysing the war In Iraq and the Middle East with Dr Franics A Boyle
Steve Watson & Alex Jones

Friday, January 5, 2007
Alex Jones was joined on air this week by eminent American Professor, Dr Francis A Boyle, to discuss the current situation in Iraq, the wider implications for International Relations and the ruthless mentality of the Straussian neoconservatives that have seized global power in the twenty first century.
Boyle is a leading American professor, practitioner and advocate of international law. He was responsible for drafting the Biological Weapons Anti-Terrorism Act of 1989, the American implementing legislation for the 1972 Biological Weapons Convention. He served on the Board of Directors of Amnesty International (1988-1992), and represented Bosnia- Herzegovina at the World Court. Professor Boyle teaches international law at the University of Illinois, Champaign. He holds a Doctor of Law Magna Cum Laude as well as a Ph.D. in Political Science, both from Harvard University.

“There is the other factor of deliberately stirring up animosity between the Shia and the and the Sunni, which this lynching was also designed to do.” Boyle said.
Dr Boyle went on to say that National Security Advisors and leading Neocon hawks Elliott Abrams and Stephen Hadley gave the green light to deliberately stir up sectarian tensions, not only in Iraq between the Shia and the Sunni, but also in the Muslim world. So they picked the holiest day, Eid al-A
