If We Ever Meet Irving Kristol We Are Going to Knee Him in the Balls

It is also far too early in the morning for Bill Kristol to be saying this nonsense.

I suppose I’ll merely expose myself to harmless ridicule if I make the following assertion: George W. Bush’s presidency will probably be a successful one.

See, now we wish our ridicule could harm you. We are too hungover to even mock this editorial. All we can do is blockquote it incredulously.

Let’s step back from the unnecessary mistakes and the self-inflicted wounds that have characterized the Bush administration.

Yes, let’s. Let’s step all the way back to bed. Let’s step back to a magical bed where we never read this terrible column. This column full of inexplicable statements like this.

What about terrorism? Apart from Iraq, there has been less of it, here and abroad, than many experts predicted on Sept. 12, 2001. So Bush and Vice President Cheney probably are doing some important things right. The war in Afghanistan has gone reasonably well.

Ow ow ow ow ow ow ow.
