Weekly Standard Responds: Kristol Is Far More ‘Respectable’ Than The Netroots
Weekly Standard Responds: Kristol Is Far More ‘Respectable’ Than The Netroots
On Fox News Sunday yesterday, Weekly Standard editor Bill Kristol attacked the upcoming YearlyKos convention and its namesake, DailyKos founder Markos Moulitsas Zuniga, as out of the mainstream and “not respectable.”
ThinkProgress, DailyKos, and other progressive blogs responded to Kristol’s baseless charges, pointing out that what Kristol describes “as left is now center” and that the viewpoints of the progressive blogosphere reflect mainstream America.
On the Weekly Standard’s blog today, Sonny Bunch defended his boss by going on the attack, recalling a brusque comment Markos made in 2004, for which he has apologized:
The Daily Kos, Think Progress, and a host of other lefty blogs seem to be shocked that someone might question the respectability of Markos Moulitsas…Is that the kind of thing respectable people say?
ThinkProgress has created a compilation of the highly-esteemed rhetoric of Bill Kristol, presumably the type of language Bunch considers emulatable:
– “It is insane for this country to be obsessing … about a small prisoner abuse scandal,” referring to Abu Ghraib. [5/16/2004]
- “Cheney’s statement” that Ned Lamont’s primary victory helps al Qaeda “is indisputably correct.” [6/13/2006]
- “The voters in Florida, I guess, who elected him” are responsible for former Rep. Mark Foley’s illicit sexual behavior. “Maybe they should have known better.” [10/3/06]
- Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) is “sort of the opposite of Lincoln. He would have been with Stephen Douglas in 1858″ in appeasing slave owners. [2/10/07]
- Sen. Harry Reid (D-NV) saying the war is lost “is much more disgraceful than anything Trent Lott said” about the country being better off if it had maintained racist segregation policies. [4/22/07]
Bunch seems to consider such commentary to be “the kind of thing respectable people say.”
UPDATE: Atrios notes:
Over the next couple of weeks there will be a grand effort by the wingosphere/conservative pundits/Falafel boy/their mainstream media enablers/etc… to try to undermine Yearly Kos and to marginalize anyone who attends.
UPDATE II: In the Washington Post last week, David Corn laid out Kristol’s less-than -”respectable” record as a shill for the Iraq war.

kristol is a hack for the right wing. Does he merit anything beyond a “yawn”?
July 23rd, 2007 at 1:17 pmLittle Billy Kristol is only respectable in the social circles that condone wars-for-oil (e.g., Iraq), dysfunctional government (e.g., the U.S. 2001 to current) and smirking, swaggering, ignorant cowboy-presidents (e.g., GDumbya).
Beyond that small circle of dead-enders, Kristol could drink Drano and die. It would be a good thing.

July 23rd, 2007 at 1:22 pmWeekly Standard says that Kristol is “respectable”??? Now THERE’S a neutral source…
July 23rd, 2007 at 1:23 pmSen. Harry Reid (D-NV) saying the war is lost “is much more disgraceful than anything Trent Lott said†about the country being better off if it had maintained racist segregation policies.
I love how Reid’s comment “the war is lost” is always truncated to leave out the “if we stay on the present course” clause that preceded it. Everybody spins, but nobody does it with such unabashed intent to deceive as the Republicans.

July 23rd, 2007 at 1:24 pmFew pundits have been more wrong about more things than Kristol, but he’s accountable to no one so he can keep yapping his mouth.
July 23rd, 2007 at 1:25 pmI guess today has been declared “bizarro pundit world day” in which the influence and “respectability” of pundits who should be in other lines of work, or even prison, is highlighted.
July 23rd, 2007 at 1:28 pmCall Congress Today for Impeachment
We’ve reached the impeachment moment for Vice President Dick Cheney. We’ve pushed the cosponsor list for H. Res. 333 up to 14. Chairman John Conyers says that if we get 3 more he’ll begin the impeachment proceedings.
And many Congress Members must be recognizing that there is no other path available. Cheney and Bush have repeatedly refused to comply with subpoenas, ordered former staffers not to comply, and announced that the Justice Department will not enforce contempt citations from Congress. When a special prosecutor attempted to hold this administration accountable, Cheney’s chief of staff obstructed justice, and Cheney persuaded Bush to commute his sentence. There is no course left for Congress but Impeachment.
On Monday, July 23rd, the fifth anniversary of the meeting that produced the Downing Street Minutes, Cindy Sheehan, Ray McGovern, Rev. Lennox Yearwood, Ann Wright, Debra Sweet, Dave Lindorff, David Swanson, Jodie Evans, Medea Benjamin, Kevin Zeese, and Tina Richards will lead a march to Chairman Conyers office and not leave until he agrees to begin impeachment proceedings.
If you cannot be there, you can take two minutes on Monday and do two things: phone Chairman Conyers at 202-225-5126 and ask him to start the impeachment of Dick Cheney; and phone your own Congress Member at 202-224-3121 and ask them to immediately call Conyers’ office to express their support for impeachment. Your Congress Member might be one of the three needed, not just to keep impeachment activists out of jail but to keep this nation from devolving into dictatorship.

July 23rd, 2007 at 1:32 pm“SCREW THEM:†NOT A JOKE
By Michelle Malkin • April 1, 2005 03:41 PM
A year ago today, left-wing blogger and Democratic strategist Markos Moulitsos Zuniga of the Daily Kos cheered the brutal murders of four American civilian contractors in Fallujah–all of them war veterans with distinguished records, three of them fathers–with the following infamous words:
“Screw them.â€
July 23rd, 2007 at 1:32 pmyou took the words right out of my mouth, spit take.
July 23rd, 2007 at 1:34 pmUnless, of course, respectability means never having to say you’re sorry for supporting convicted former executive aides, treasoners, pedophiles, holier-than-thou customers of brothels, homophobic born-again closeted homosexuals, indicted former congressmen, and Ken Lay types, of course.
The Right are respectable in the same sense Macbeth was respectable.
July 23rd, 2007 at 1:35 pmto Eck & Michelle Malkin:
July 23rd, 2007 at 1:37 pmcivilian contractors going into Iraq are all given four or five times normal pay for operations inside a war zone…..does no one get it that you’ll probably be killed if you go there? The difference is that our men & women in uniform, the underpaid and under equipped “volunteer army” can’t take a pass when ordered there…..
Markos “Screw them” Moulitsos Zuniga. A real patriot yea!!!

Comment by The Eck — July 23, 2007 @ 1:32 pm
Well, burning and hanging them seemed the better idea. Former decorated veterans should know better than to commit murder and abandon their families for the Bush Cabal. They got and deserved exactly what they asked for.
July 23rd, 2007 at 1:40 pmIt is disheartening to hear that Bill Kristol is so outspoken on issues that should be taken more seriously; especially poverty. Every 3.6 seconds that politicians bicker with one another, another person dies of Starvation [Borgen Project]. How sad is that? Especially if all it takes is 19 billion dollars (compared the 540 billion spent on military security) to end malnutrition and starvation worldwide. These real issues should be the focus of these politicians, regardless of how far left or right they stand on.
July 23rd, 2007 at 1:40 pmThanks for that diversionary tactic, “The Hack”. And from no less a “respectable” source than the ever-sober and reasoned Michelle Malkin!
I’m sure that the quote she pulled did not come out of contexst in any way, and that Kos literally “cheered” those deaths as MM so even-handedly states.
Thanks again. Your contributions really help line my cat box.
July 23rd, 2007 at 1:40 pmMarcos isn’t running the event. So are all these clear minded righties going to acknowledge that? Or are they going to muddy the waters? hmmmmmmmmmm.
Meanwhile the Bush administration continues to hold back information regarding Pat Tillman’s death. A death this administration used as a recruiting tool. All the while knowing the truth of his death was something far different than the official story that first went out.
Stand by that but attack others. You don’t have an argument in the logical world.

Are you willfully stupid or just another repuke liar? Or both? don’t worry about impeachin g Congress, we’ll clean the Right side of that body shortly. Bush will be impeached, even if it’s after his term is over. He will also stand trial for war crimes, and be convicted, unless he hides out in Paraguay, which would be his style, as shown by his running and hiding on 9/11.

That doesn’t bother ‘em, hellinabucket. Because they don’t operate in the “logical world”. They don’t even vacation here.
The “logical world” is just for those of us in the “reality-based community.”
July 23rd, 2007 at 1:43 pmAt the Weekly Standard, long-time Iraq war cheerleader Bill Kristol proclaimed in June that the surge is working “better than expected.” A chickenhawk himself who never served in the military (unlike Markos), Kristol offered President Bush some martial advice in warding off his surge critics:
“When you find yourself in an ambush, attack into the ambush. Don’t twist and turn in the kill zone, looking for a way to retreat. Especially when the ambush is not a powerful one, and the Democrats’ position (to mix military metaphors) is way overextended.”
For the details, see:
July 23rd, 2007 at 1:43 pm“Iraq Surge Wins Rave Reviews.”
William Kristol, grandson of Irving Kriston, Grandfather of the Leo Strauss School of Fascism, is the epitome of a “reich-wingnut”. ‘nuf said about this psycho.
July 23rd, 2007 at 1:44 pmi am unable to find any respect for kristolnacht.
July 23rd, 2007 at 1:44 pmBut now his task is not to educate or persuade us. It is to defeat Saddam Hussein. And that will require the president, at times, to mislead rather than to clarify, to deceive rather than to explain….Victory in war, over the next few weeks or months, will require using the fog of war — creating that fog — to keep Hussein off balance, wishful and confused.”
Andrew Sullivan, the gay British journalist who once edited the New Republic, has castigated Kristol for speaking at a conference that described homosexuality as “the disease it is,” and for his determination to outlaw abortion as the “key to a conservative reformation.”
December 2, 1993 – Leading conservative operative William Kristol privately circulates a strategy document to Republicans in Congress. Kristol writes that congressional Republicans should work to “kill” — not amend — the Clinton plan because it presents a real danger to the Republican future: Its passage will give the Democrats a lock on the crucial middle-class vote and revive the reputation of the party. Nearly a full year before Republicans will unite behind the “Contract With America,” Kristol has provided the rationale and the steel for them to achieve their aims of winning control of Congress and becoming America’s majority party. Killing health care will serve both ends. The timing of the memo dovetails with a growing private consensus among Republicans that all-out opposition to the Clinton plan is in their best political interest. Until the memo surfaces, most opponents prefer behind-the-scenes warfare largely shielded from public view. The boldness of Kristol’s strategy signals a new turn in the battle. Not only is it politically acceptable to criticize the Clinton plan on policy grounds, it is also politically advantageous. By the end of 1993, blocking reform poses little risk as the public becomes increasingly fearful of what it has heard about the Clinton plan.
July 23rd, 2007 at 1:44 pmHa!!! The weekly standard has a circulation of about 60,000. Dailykos has millions daily. I guess credibility has nothing to do with how many people read your opinions. Either way, I don’t know why anyone would brag about the credibility of a national political magazine that has a lower circulation then most community happenings magazines.
July 23rd, 2007 at 1:45 pmI can only dream that one day my blogosphere will be lambasted by the likes of Bill Kristol and Bill O’Reilly
July 23rd, 2007 at 1:45 pmI gotta say, TP finds the best pictures of these guys to use.

July 23rd, 2007 at 1:56 pmGood to know that Kristol is so scared he’s put out a hit on the Kos Convention. From Kristol’s perspective, the only thing the Republicans have to fear is that citizens should know the truth. And he’s gonna keep it from ‘em by promoting those who’ll never tell it, starting with Kneepads Lieberman.

WHO: CODEPINK Women for Peace and Breast Not Bombs
VISUALS: Pink Banners, Signs, Topless Protest
Women peace groups make an urgent plea to Nancy Pelosi and Hillary Clinton to take immediate action in response to the ongoing indecent and illegal behavior of the Bush administration.
“We want to invoke for them the feminine priorities of nurturing, safety, and justice,†explains Sherry Glaser of Breasts Not Bombs. “The American people are tired of the rising body count and spending $1.8 billion a week on the war in Iraq, and they have made clear their priorities are the health and well being of this nation.â€
The groups also choose this form of political theater to symbolize the vulnerability of the Iraqi people, US soldiers, and women and children everywhere, and to represent a culture of nurturance.
…”Last November voters gave a mandate for peace to the new Congress, but Congress, under the leadership of Nancy Pelosi, has not done enough to end the war, and neither has Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton,†says Vicki Leidner of CODEPINK San Francisco, “As women peacemakers we have a special responsibility to ensure that women in power are representing us.”
“We take our lead from women throughout history who have used creative nonviolent actions to reveal the undeniable power of the feminine,†adds Margaret Howe of Breasts not Bombs.

Poor trolls. They latch on to something that is pleasing to them and they just repeat it over and over as if it’s true. Bush’s average poll rating is well into the 20’s and try as I may, I can come up with no data to support this much repeated 14% Congressional approval number. The latest congressional poll gives Dems a 31% approval and Repubs 21%.
Oh, and Flaco, it’s just not constitutionally possible to “impeach congress.” You must have been napping during civics.
But, this is about William Kristol. Can any of these trolls find even one thing Kristol has been correct about?
July 23rd, 2007 at 2:08 pmBut feel free to spend your time looking for grammatical errors if you’d like.
Maybe we can find you a job as a 3rd grade english teacher.
But the rest of us will most likely continue to talk about matters of substance. Like Spudge correcting him for spelling the name of our “COUNTRY” with a lower case “a”, which was a sign of respect to our “country”.

Let’s face it – TP and their hateful allies in the Demonic Party want us to lose the war. You will burn in hell for this.

I was talking to God over the weekend, and over a nice glass of Penfold Grange, 1996, and he said he is really pissed at the right wingers using his name to support the devil’s work in Iraq.
He specifically pointed out KKKarl and said he has a special place in Hell for that pudgy f*ck.
I know, hard to believe God would say pudgy f*ck, surprised me too, but it just shows how pissed off he was.
So be careful how you support this evil cabal and Bush’s War. You might end up with a flaming trident up your ass for eternity.
Oh shit! Now I did it, I invoked Daryll, Saint of everything Holy and up your ass at the same time.

I have a personal relationship with Zeus. We talk all the time. He tells me this Jehova is a very disreputable fellow who has actually left the area and is currently whipping up trouble in another remote part of the cosmos. He also informs me that there is almost universal disdain for Jehovah’s followers in the God community. They’re considered lacking in mental ability and easy to manipulate. Zeus tells me he’s very put-off by their hatefulness. Just thought you’d like to hear another view from the God community.

With all due respect, you’re a f*cking idiot.
I don’t know whether you’re too lazy to debate or too intimidated, but it’s cowardly and ignorant to fall back on the pathetic “the left hates America” meme.
We don’t celebrate troop deaths. We mourn them and want them to stop.
The Right, headed by people like Bill Kristol, on the other hand, are utterly indifferent to troop deaths — for political gain. They don’t care how many have to die in order for them to avoid taking responsiblity for this massive foreign policy f*ckup. You see the troops as disposable pawns, and you justify it by reminding yourself that “they volunteered”, as if that gives the President moral authority to override the judgment of their commanders, to extend tours through stop-loss and to lean too heavily on National Guard troops for overseas combat. This war has now taken longer than our involvement in WWII but Bush still treats it like it’s an emergency situation — relying on NG troops, still funding the war through “emergency appropriations” bills so the costs don’t appear in his budget…
Let’s face it — the Left and several prominent Democrats said that this was an unwinnable war from the start, but BushCo and the Rubber Stamp Republican Congress ignored them. They’re the ones who hate America. Their eternal reward will be richly earned.

This is all irrational gibberish.
Don’t reply to it.
July 23rd, 2007 at 2:33 pmIs winning the war/occupation defined as getting the Iraqis to hand over 70% of their oil profits for the next 30 years? Is this what the Bush supporters want? They want the multinationals to steal the oil wealth that belongs to the Iraqi people? I find this beyond disgraceful. And if the corporate media would report it, I’m sure 90% of the country would as well.
July 23rd, 2007 at 2:35 pm#96 – you are a phony as is Spudge. You did not serve in the war. You HATE the military and apparently religion. Hopefully, Democrats will heed your call to trash religion so the GOP can keep the White House and Supreme Court.

July 23rd, 2007 at 2:38 pm“We reject, adamantly, the privatization of our oil national wealth and the Production Sharing Agreements (PSAs), and call for direct national investment in oil and gas by the Iraqi National Oil Company. We also call for supporting and developing the Ministry of Oil and its institutions in a comprehensive manner, and to benefit from international expertise and technology on the basis of service and administration agreements with companies that are technically efficient and capable, as needed.”

Just more vicious trolling lies, seeking attention. As TRoS suggests, simply ignore it and it will go away.
I see that the troll known as PiPPy has returned more or less to form (regressing to the mean, as it were), albeit while using yet another identity. Those who over the weekend expressed support for this troll have some crow to nibble on, I think.
July 23rd, 2007 at 2:40 pmBible-thumper: “Hillary and the Democrats in Congress insured that the war was not illegal. She would try them for war crimes, as well?”
Poor Bible-thumper. We shouldn’t be surprised when cult-of-death members get their facts wrong. Facts are not their strength. Facts are their enemies.
Dems who voted for the War Authorization act, voted for an invasion as a last possible resort after exhausting all efforts by UN. Weapons Inspectors. They also stipulated that Bush had to give them proof of Saddam’s complicity with the 9-11 attack before an invasion could proceed. Bush never lived up to the terms of the agreement. Bible thumpers agreed not to notice.
July 23rd, 2007 at 2:41 pmRepublic – the left can’t help themselves. They hear someone call them unAmerican and they go nuts. Why? Because they know it’s true. They know they hate this country, religion and the troops.

Easy there, thumper. I’m not trashing religion. I’m just trashing YOUR religion.
July 23rd, 2007 at 2:43 pm#105 – Retired Poser: Bull Sh*t. Hillary and her husband both thought Sadam had WMD. AND their spineless party voted with the President because they were reading the polls, not their hearts. That is not leadership – that is criminal.
AND stop claiming to have served in the military. IT’S A LIE. Liberals love to claim to have served so they can more effectively slander our troops.
July 23rd, 2007 at 2:44 pm#107 – yes, of course unlike your favorite religion of Islamic fundamentalism. You fear Christians more than people who would kill you as soon as look at you.
July 23rd, 2007 at 2:44 pmTRoS has the right idea. It has been weeks by my count since a conservative had anything worthwhile to offer on these boards. The only way to deal with their stupidity (which is vast — whether it’s intentional or natural is open to question) is to ignore it.
July 23rd, 2007 at 2:46 pmColonel Jack.
That’s an important fact you brought up.
The force authorization required Bush to specify and state certain cases, and all he did was parrot back the same language, without meeting the spirit of what was demanded of him.
That the Congress let him get away with it is reprehensible.

Irrelevant. Bush invaded Iraq without living up to the terms of the war authorization act.
RUCerious: The fact that the Republican-majority congress let him get away with it is important. What’s even more important is that our media never reported to the people about Bush’s failure to live up to the terms of the agreement and instead went along with the right-wing talking point that Dems “voted for the war.”

July 23rd, 2007 at 3:17 pmOne thing I notice about Conservatives in general and neocons in particular: They seem to believe that a person’s view of another should never change, regardless of what that other person may do.
Clinton’s and his wife’s claims back before 2000 about Hussein’s alleged stockpile of NBC weapons.
The ‘righteous Indignation’ over the criticism of the Blackwater-esque contractors who had been decorated soldiers and ‘family men’ before they joined Blackwell or whatever so-called ’security’ (read: Mercenary) company they joined up with and got killed on Company Time ™.
The attacks against Kerry’s decision that he could no longer support the war, even though he originally did support it, coining a new vernacular for changing one’s opinions, rightfully or otherwise: “Flip-Flop”.
Their sudden interest in Joe Lieberman’s loss in the primary, and his win in the General election as an Independant, attacking Democrats for ‘flip-flopping’ on supporting him.
I guess, in their world, doing one ‘good’ thing (in their eyes) excuses you from every single bad thing you’ve ever done. Killed a woman’s career, violated the law by blowing her cover? That’s OK, you Fought for Freedom(tm) and killed a Terrist(tm). Ole Dubya will pardon ya and you can say how ‘unfair’ the sentence was. “I did good, why must I suffer!?”
Well, we in the ‘reality based community’ (read, the Real World(tm)) don’t think so. Must be hard being part of the rapidly shrinking percentage that supports Dubya, with everyone around you getting pissed off at your Boy Wonder. I guess that’s what motivates the Weekly Standard to rally around one of the few friendly voices left to them, while the netroots (i.e. Internet Connected American Citizens) get villified as ‘nutroots’ (i.e. ICAS who don’t agree with Our Stance ™.)

July 23rd, 2007 at 3:23 pmLook, if we free the people of Iraq we will be respected in the Arab world.” On March 1, 2003 — 18 days before the invasion of Iraq — Kristol dismissed the possibility of sectarian conflict afterward. He also said, “Very few wars in American history were prepared better or more thoroughly than this one by this president.” He maintained that the war would cost $100 billion to $200 billion. (The running tab is now about half a trillion dollars.) On March 5, 2003, Kristol said, “We’ll be vindicated when we discover the weapons of mass destruction.”
An example of how William got such ‘respectability’
July 23rd, 2007 at 3:25 pmCindy Sheehan is a good woman, and a good mom, who lost her son in a horrific manner, to a horrific war that was started for horrific reasons.

All his pronouncements on the war in Iraq have been wrong and his latest on Bush being a great president is simply delusional. He and his neocon friends belong in Gitmo where they will be unable to wreak anymore havoc on the world.
If I had my way, I’d ship every neocon and his/her children to Iraq where I would assign them to permanent convoy duty.

Hey, since you’re a bible thumper AND you brought up Hitler, here’s some great christian quotes for you:
“My feelings as a Christian points me to my Lord and Savior as a fighter. It points me to the man who once in loneliness, surrounded by a few followers, recognized these Jews for what they were and summoned men to fight against them and who, God’s truth! was greatest not as a sufferer but as a fighter. In boundless love as a Christian and as a man I read through the passage which tells us how the Lord at last rose in His might and seized the scourge to drive out of the Temple the brood of vipers and adders. How terrific was his fight against the Jewish poison. Today, after two thousand years, with deepest emotion I recognize more profoundly than ever before the fact that it was for this that He had to shed his blood upon the Cross. As a Christian I have no duty to allow myself to be cheated, but I have the duty to be a fighter for truth and justice… And if there is anything which could demonstrate that we are acting rightly, it is the distress that daily grows. For as a Christian I have also a duty to my own people. And when I look on my people I see them work and work and toil and labor, and at the end of the week they have only for their wages wretchedness and misery. When I go out in the morning and see these men standing in their queues and look into their pinched faces, then I believe I would be no Christian, but a very devil, if I felt no pity for them, if I did not, as did our Lord two thousand years ago, turn against those by whom today this poor people are plundered and exposed.”
—Adolf Hitler, speech on April 12, 1922, published in My New Order
“I am now as before a Catholic and will always remain so”
July 23rd, 2007 at 6:24 pm—Adolph Hitler, to Gen. Gerhard Engel, 1941
Crazy Bible-Thumper: “Face it – Democrats are foolish if they nominate this woman. Currently, Gallup has her fave rating at 47%.”
Gosh, Thumper, that’s better than I thought. The most current CBS poll has Guilani at 35%, Thompson at 17%, Romney at a screaming 11% and McCain in the 20’s and fading fast. Thanks for the update on Hillary’s commanding lead in the polls!
