Bill Kristol On The Daily Show: Reasons Why George Bush Will Be "A Happy Ex-President"

Huffington Post | February 13, 2008 12:43 PM

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/02/13/bill-kristol-on-the-daily_n_86474.html



Bill Kristol was on "A Daily Show"* last night, and he declared that George Bush will be "a happy ex-president." When asked why, he provided a list of reasons that can best be summed up with exact quotes:

* "the war in Iraq is going to end up being vindicated"
* "the economy's been pretty good"
* "Alito and Roberts are excellent"

Responding to Kristol's claims that Iraq will be democratic and free, Stewart said, "I understand why you feel like you have to say that a lot to yourself, because if I had suggested going in there ten years ago and it turned out this way, I'd feel (expletive) too."

Other highlights include Kristol and Stewart sparring on Anbar and Kristol's admission that "I try to be (human) once every few months."

3. this is what you get when you ask people to cross picket lines
you could tell Jon was pissed at him, at having to deal with him again. Almost like he was tired of his shit and giggles. IMHO

12. OR proof of why some animals...
...eat their young.

I still think that's the single funniest line out of the Smothers Brothers' entire career. Dick said it while looking at Tom ("Looking at you, I know why some animals eat their young") and Tom's take into the camera was legendary.



:rofl:

10. Well that does it for me...
If Bill says it, it must be true.
Beacuse he's been right on EVERYTHING!

Huh? What's that? Name one thing.

Well...there's the...ummmmmmmmm. No he was wrong about that.
Okay. How about when he said that the need for large numbers of troops in Iraq would be over before Jan 1, 2004. Oh. Wait. Yeah. He was wrong about that.

How about there is no difference between Shiites and Sunnis. I mean... Oh. Yeah. He was wrong about that too.

The economy. Yeah the economy. On the economy he said that housing was not going to be a serious cri...si...s.

Well...He was right when he said that people are overstating Bushes indifference to Hurricane Katrina and that New Orleans would be back to it's original look within a...year.

He did say Harriet Meiers would be...

Well... Oh f**k it. Nevermind. The guy isn't even good enough to be a broken clock. At least the broken clock is right twice a day.

13. I just LOVE the 'comedy stylings' of Bill Kristol!
I make a point of never missing his TV appearances. He's such a DOLT, he's like a living parody of right-wing nuts everywhere.

Shows like TDS and Colbert et al are the perfect venue for this guy - and he's too lame to realize he's the punchline.

He's like a walking joke that comes out on stage and tells itself - over, and over, and over - while the audience guffaws.

Love it!!!

17. the neocons dis' the liberals " in their ivory towers"
I love to know what world they and their think tank members live. This is their second go at supply side ,and it didn't work again......short term gains for the very rich and a economic collapse for the rest of us. Which one of us is living in a dream world. As for the war, I think that three or four back to back deployments to Iraq might widen his horizons. I would love to see him stand trial for his role in lying us into this war... Might he and his ilk rot in hell!:nuke:
