BWAHAHAHAHAHA! Bill Kristol and Charles Krauthammer are no longer paid columnists at Time Magazine
Always Wrong…And Now Out Of A Job

http://www.crooksandliars.com/2007/12/20/always-wrongand-now-out-of-a-job/





It may be storming outside, but I’m definitely feeling sunshine breaking through some neo-con clouds..

Two conservative Time magazine columnists are on their way out the door: Neither William Kristol nor longtime contributor Charles Krauthammer will be on contract with the magazine starting next month. Mr. Krauthammer confirmed the news to Off the Record, and a spokeswoman for Time said Mr. Kristol’s contract would not be renewed.

The exact reasons for the departures of Mr. Krauthammer and Mr. Kristol, both high-profile backers of the Iraq war, are not entirely clear.

But sadly, we’re not completely rid of rightwing hackery at Time:

And according to two sources familiar with the discussions, Time is in negotiations with National Review editor Ramesh Ponnuru to sign him to a contributor contract. Mr. Ponnuru, who in 2006 published The Party of Death: The Democrats, the Media, the Courts, and the Disregard for Human Life, has written twice for the magazine over the past month.

2. Wonder where those two will land?
Kristol happens to be one of the most ignorant men I've ever had the displeasure to have to listen to, but I'm sure he'll land on his paws somewhere.......

7. This was long overdue
Krauthammer alone has been responsible for more hot air than Mt. Vesuvius during
a full eruption, and Kristol has emitted enough hot air to keep a hot air balloon
aloft for a century.

Krauthammer is the principle reason I no longer bother to pick up TIME.
