Charles Krauthammer has turned comedian.

I skipped over Fox to hear what they thought of the Clinton speech. It was predictable and included Wallace dropping a few Republican talking points, but the criticism seemed tepid anyway.

Then they brought out Charles Krauthammer and his conservative elite sneer to comment. He announced it one of the worst political speeches he ever witnessed. He went on to claim it amounted to a Hillary 2016 speech, even though I only heard her mentioned the one time.

He steadily built to the punch line when he stated that Clinton got revenge on Obama by keeping him waiting in the wings for him to finish. He pointed out that the only reason the speech went on so long was to show disrespect for the man Clinton deeply hated.

Then he was set up for the closer when Meagan Whats-Her-Name asked Krauthammer why he thought the democrats were moving the event indoors tomorrow. Krauthammer said he was sure it was because of a lack of interest because, and I quote, "the democrats knew months ago what the weather would be on that night".

The Bush recession threw hundreds of Vegas comedians out of work, and the republicans hire the team of Clint & Kraut.

1. wow......

2. Yeh he does

3. ODS needs to be treated by a long stay in a padded room

[Floyd_Gondolli]

4. Smells like desperation to me

They know Obama is having a great week. And it scares the ever loving shit out of them.

5. Krauthammer is a shameless hack

He has no objectivity whatsoever. In this instance, his remarks were based not so much on the need to spin Clinton's speech, but on sheer panic that it may have finally eviscerated all the GOP's bogus talking points.

6. "Mein Fuhrer I can walk!!!" nt

12. LOL!!!

7. Well ...

"the democrats knew months ago what the weather would be on that night".

What kind of messiah wouldn't know what the weather was going to be months in advance?

[DLine]

8. Maybe Obama really is the messiah?

.. and some how Krauthammar knows it. This explains why I only hear righties talk about how people think Obama is the savior.

9. In Krauthammer's defense...

...Bill Clinton didn't give him much fodder upon which to work his comedic stylings.

[Mponti]

10. He looks like Count Chocula

[JohnnyRingo]

13. Hahahahaha... I (Unfortunately) gave that some serious thought.

I don't imagine Madison Avenue cartoonists give their work that much creative thought, so it's possible that artist was just watching the news the morning they got the cereal account and said: "there he is".

I'm pretty sure Capn Crunch and John Bolton are the same person.

11. Krauthammer is as ugly on the inside as he is on the outside.

It makes me barf to look at him. And there is no WAY I could stand listening to his smarmy, whiny voice.

[Hugabear]

14. Of course we knew precisely what the weather would be like months ago.

Don't you fucking forget that.

[speedoo]

15. He also panned the President's speech.

Said it was "empty", lacked substance blah blah.

He's clueless on this.

[Sugarcoated]

16. His hate of the President is palpable

He doesn't even make sense anymore.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

17. One day on Fox he'll start trembling and shaking and suddenly implode,

swallowing his entire anal retentive body through the event horizon down the black hole of his butt and disappear into a mathematical point.

[Ichingcarpenter]

18. Colbert ripped him a good one

about Obama having to wait behind the curtain while Clinton lavished praise for Obama

[JohnnyRingo]

19. I saw that...

How can anything be more of a dis than to keep the president waiting backstage while Clinton lavished mountains of praise upon him? Hahahhaha

Krauthammer really dropped the ball on this one. He's so full of rage he can't even think straight.
