observation from Bill Kristol


?s=19


Text from the tweet (apologies for typos)- I'm at the corner of 16th and H. The White House flag is not at half mast. The flags at the Hay Adams hotel, the AFL-CIO Building across the street and the Laborers' international Union building a block away are all at half mast. This country is better than its president.

His hands are bloody from Iraqis and Americans. Why would any self respecting Democrat give two f's about his thoughts.

They used to be universally hated on DU, but evidently now Kristol and McCain are heros.

If we don't allow leaches like Bill Cristol to speak up whether it's good or bad. This pet talk is intended for his audience. And mark my words - the moment The Nazi in the WH starts the drum beat on War with Iran, this leach will change sides and sing the praises of his Fuehrer.
