BillKristol: "Stick with the war, even though it's being badly handled"
These guys amaze me.. He's on Charlie Rose's show and actually said that....It boggles the mind how flippant these guys are when they so willingly send *OPLO to die in their ridiculous wars...especially when each one of them "had better things to do when it was their turn to fight a war"..

*other people's loved ones..

4. Krauthammer had an article in the Tribune today that just
pissed me off! Still tying Iraq to the "war on terror". Just infuriating! here...

5. BillyK is always in favor of war
The plan was always Iraq and then Iran and he intends for it to go on even when Iraq is not turning out the way he predicted.

He is a testimony to the neoconnie dream of perpetual war.-->i.e. perpetual fear--> i.e. perpetual control over the masses.

8. On c-span one morning a caller asked Kristol if he
had ever served in the military. He hemmed and hawed and paused and finally blurted out "no" but quickly added that service to country should not be confined to the military. A more useless POS doesn't exist - except for the chimp.

12. Saw him on CSPAN once with Daniel Ellsberg
and an angry caller popped him with the "why didn't you pick up a gun and go to Nam?" question. Kristol looked like he had his pants full of spiders, so the moderator rephrased the question politely. Kristol lied, "I was too young." The fucker was born in 1952.

16. or, as it was explained by Stephen Colbert...
Stephen: "I was too young to serve in Vietnam and too old to serve in the Gulf."

Word bullet: "27's too old?"

Edited on Tue Aug-15-06 06:48 AM by jimshoes
I had to go through the 71 draft experience. So billy had to as well. I wound up with a higher number than they were taking and did not get called. That's all bill had to say unless he had a low number and dodged the draft somehow. What is the creep's birthday? We can find out what his draft number was then.

edit, Creep was born 12-23-52 draft number 171, so he would not have been called. They only took up to 75 that year IIRC.

13. Stick with the car, even though it has 4 flats and no engine.
You'll love this car, it isn't running right now, but just stick with it.

19. Bill has been snorting too much kristol I think.
He knows if Bush loses control of congress, that he might get what the Nazis got a dose of at Nuremberg, for his many war crimes.

25. As long as we're getting raped, enjoy it?
I don't think we should take our marching orders from Kristol, since he's probably one of the neo-cons who deceived us into war. At some point, Kristol and his elke should be investigated for treason.
