Bill Kristol Relaunches Warlord Club Website

The sleeping beast sleepeth no more, DO YOU SEE? Weekly Standard editor and New York Times dandy Bill Kristol appears to have flipped the website back on for the Project for the New American Century (PNAC), the famous congregation of neocons who love declaring war on all Arabs, always. WHAT EVIL THINGS WILL THEY PLAN NOW? Why the election of Sarah Palin, of course! [Wonk Room]

    The GOP needs to split into 2 factions:

    A. Social conservatives, i.e. Crazy nuts, Bible thumpers/humpers, Loonies, and Bitterz
    B. Fiscal conservatives who just want their money

    This way everybody wins; especially the Democrats.

  2. shortsshortsshorts says at 5:42 pm, November 10th, 2008

    Neo-cons are like weeds. You can exterminate them, and yet they will come back with even stronger numbers the next round.
    Time to buy more herbicides.

    See how we are transformed….see what eight…years…has done to us. DO YOU SEE?

  4. shortsshortsshorts: Sounds more like Sand People to me.

  5. BillyClubb says at 5:49 pm, November 10th, 2008

    The PNAC website states …that American leadership is good both for America and for the world

    Yay! At least I live in the country that will be ruling the rest of the world.

  6. Kev-O-Tron says at 5:54 pm, November 10th, 2008

    This call for the GOP to return to traditional, conservative values is the equivalent of “need more cowbell.”

  7. teebob2000 says at 5:54 pm, November 10th, 2008

    Is their site hosted on webservers of our Chinese overlords?

  8. blinky_twinkie says at 5:55 pm, November 10th, 2008

    BillyClubb: Wanting to rule the world and actually ruling the world are two different things. The former makes us fundamentalist-theocracy Iran (as opposed to secular-hedonist-heaven Persia). The latter makes us Klingons.

  9. Hooray For Anything says at 5:56 pm, November 10th, 2008

    Considering Kristol’s track record, if they want to try and elect Sarah Palin, go nuts. In fact, they should just put Kristol in charge of the Republican Party.

  10. problemwithcaring says at 6:04 pm, November 10th, 2008

    I hope the NeoCons won’t waste all Saracuda’s experience in beauty pageants and “existing in a nearby region” and allow her MC a few of the Russian discussion panels - you know, if the honorarium includes first-class accommodations for her five kids.

  11. Pop Socket says at 6:06 pm, November 10th, 2008

    At this point I would suspect anything Kristol does as being a Trojan Horse secretly funded by the Democrats. It’s the most plausible explanation.

  12. ManchuCandidate says at 6:07 pm, November 10th, 2008

    What batch of new wannabe warlord losers is going to sign on with the “RW Assholes playing Risk for realz” Club Again?

    Mittens Rommey?
    9ud1 Ghoull1an1?
    Joe the Plumber?
    Sarah of the Stupids?

    I can’t see who else. The first two years will be wasted just explaining the rules and concept of dice to the new members.

    OMG they’re getting ready for Survivor: Wasilla!

    Project for the New American Century? Are they planning already for 2100? Because this century is already taken.

  16. chascates says at 6:42 pm, November 10th, 2008

    So Kristol has 4 years to recast Sarah as the female Ronald Reagan. She’s can’t speak well enough without a teleprompter to make it in the Senate. The ‘Rapture-ready’ crowd may have hit its high-water mark. Obama will bring family values into the White House. She’ll likely end up joining Britney Spears as a B-lister.

  17. chascates says at 6:43 pm, November 10th, 2008

    Also on the Wonk Room is this interesting headline:
    “Obama Supports Condoms: Plans To Overturn Global Gag Rule”

  18. Internally valid says at 6:50 pm, November 10th, 2008

    I thought Bill Kristol already had his own site:

    http://www.failblog.com

  19. Cape Clod says at 6:55 pm, November 10th, 2008

    Sarah Palin is to Bill Kristol as Vista is to Microsoft. They are both too heavily invested in a discredited, substandard product to simply write off their loses.

  20. Internally valid says at 6:58 pm, November 10th, 2008

    From their “statement of principles” written in 1997:

    “Of course, the United States must be prudent in how it exercises its power.”

    Bwahahahahahaha…ha?

  21. sati demise says at 7:09 pm, November 10th, 2008

    Randy Schueneman and Phil Gramm planning their reunion tour!?!
    Who is ‘in’ and who is ‘out’? Wolfowitz? Vultures feeding on a dead carcass or Phoenix rising?

  22. JadedDIssonance says at 7:26 pm, November 10th, 2008

    Well, little surprise here. I didn’t know that Kristol would be the eventual burning effigy, but I didn’t realize he pulled any weight anymore. Perhaps we make fun of him too much to appreciate his sway. Seeing as it will be him exploding in violent showers on 9/11 remembrance days of the hope(tm)ful future, I would like to determine whom, exactly, is pulling his strings. Not Likely, understood. Does this make him the New Dick Chaney/Donald Rumsfeld/M.C. Rove?

  23. Hooray For Anything says at 7:38 pm, November 10th, 2008

    How awesome would it be to be Bill Kristol? You could basically just be completely wrong about everything, get us ass backwards into war, and take down the McCain campaign, all the while remaining a complete douche and nobody would call you on it or be punish you for it. At this point, he knows he could just make something up and people would not only let him get away with it, but in some dark crevice in the Corner or Dick Cheney’s heart, they’d think it’s a good idea.

    Phone number doesn’t work.

  26. SlouchingTowardsWasilla says at 8:00 pm, November 10th, 2008

    Well done Bill. The only thing that will make people take you more seriously than touting Sarah Palin in 2012 is ridiculing “the incoherent policies of the Clinton Administration.”

  27. Freelance Minion says at 8:22 pm, November 10th, 2008

    Let’s keep an eye on their every crazy idea this time. Maybe they succeeded in the past because they didn’t have Wonkette to kick them around.

  28. Fracking toasters.

  29. Neon Trotsky says at 8:41 pm, November 10th, 2008

    “Yes, I think it would be a wonderful idea to restart that organization nearly universally regarded as evil and whose proposed policies have failed utterly and completely during the past 8 years.”

  30. “Her campaign for governor was bumpy. She missed enough campaign appearances to be tagged “No Show Sarah” by her opponents. She was criticized for being vague on issues. But she sold voters on the one product that mattered: herself.”

    And this is a good thing because……….?

  31. DustBowlBlues says at 9:17 pm, November 10th, 2008

    chascates: On the other hand, Sen. Bible Spice would be great for CSPAN ratings.

  32. gorteknthemicrochips says at 9:30 pm, November 10th, 2008

    The RANDOM EMPHASIS CAPS are VERY DISTRACTING despite being SOMEWHAT HUMOROUS! Perhaps JIM NEWELL could CONSIDER TONING IT DOWN?

  33. villageatrois says at 10:07 pm, November 10th, 2008

    Bill Kristol is still influential over the Repubs, because they have driven out everyone but the neo-cons. Non-fundies, non-militarists, minorities, gays (including many of their Congress-critters) are all gone. All that is left is a collection of Bible-thumpers, militia members, and bank board members, none of whom would be seen with the others.

    crazy for feeling so lonely,
    I’m crazy
    crazy for feeling so red,
    white and blue,
    And snacking on tiny mammals

  36. donner_froh says at 12:38 am, November 11th, 2008

    chascates: Will she, like Britney, get some tongue from Madonna on national teevee?

  37. schvitzatura says at 2:19 am, November 11th, 2008

    Cape Clod: Sarah Palin is to Barack Obama as Windows Me is to Canonical Ltd.’s Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex v8.10.

  38. schvitzatura says at 2:21 am, November 11th, 2008

    Palin: future NRA shill…Hopey’s gonna steal your EBRs and high-cap mags, vanilla faces!

  39. From the article: Among those associated with the McCain campaign, Kristol, Scheunemann, and Goldfarb are known to have been three of the biggest Sarah Palin boosters.

    So they got a nice dumb shiksa to further their neocon agenda. But just wait til they’re finished helping her usher in the End Times. Then she’ll have the last laugh.

  40. schvitzatura says at 2:47 am, November 11th, 2008

    Aurelio:

    Unblemished red calf…check.
    Cornerstone laid for Third Temple…check.

  41. shortsshortsshorts: This is a good haiku:

    Neocons increase
    Numbers growing back like weeds
    Buy more herbicide

  42. Captain Swing says at 7:23 am, November 11th, 2008

    From their website: “The Project for the New American Century is a non-profit educational organization” (my italics).

    “Educational”. Yeah, that’s why we think a willfully ignorant, Bible-bashing, anti-science, anti-intellectual pea-brain should be the Leader of the Free World.

  43. Kinbote: Skin Jobs, but not as hot as the real (fictional) ones.

  44. CorkPopper says at 10:34 am, November 11th, 2008

    bearbait: Not as smart either.

  45. natteringnaybob says at 11:16 am, November 11th, 2008

    Look out for another New Pearl Harbor — just as soon as they tell Palin it’s not on the continent of Hawaii.
