Serious question about Charles Krauthamer....

[vi5]

Now I don't like the guy but I'm not looking for mean responses here so please refrain. But there was a link to his Washington post column today eulogizing his brother who passed away last week but the link mentioned Krauthamer's disability. What is his disability? I've noticed he has an odd posture when sitting on tv talk shows but never really thought much else of it. Again if possible please refrain from smart assed answers if you don't know the answer. Even amongst my political enemies I don't particular want to mock someone who is disabled.

1. Spinal cord injury from diving accident at 22,

he's in a wheelchair.

2. post #1 is correct. But CK had no trouble mocking Chris Reeve

for wanting to believe in a "miracle cure".

3. Like I said, I don't like the guy....

But I didn't want my post to be the impetus for mocking his disability. Pointing out what you pointed out isn't mocking him it's raising a legitimate issue.

4. I hate it when my spleen takes over the keyboard.

You're right, he was busting more on Edwards for his rather naive remark concerning Reeve. I don't care for his views but in no way was I trying to open the door on mocking his disability. He's a doctor, too, btw.

Unless that disability is his conservative values. :evilgrin:

5. His tribute to his brother was great - touching and sincere. I am not

a Krauthammer fan at all but it was a very good column and he refrained from trying to score any political points with it. It was all about his brother.
