New York Times “lightning rod conservative” columnist Bill Kristol was among the group of East Coast elite conservative pundits who supped with communist Barack Obama last week at George Will’s oxen farm in Maryland, so we were “interested” to see what he would write in today’s edition of his war column. Alas, he simply offers a perfunctory mention of the dinner before this terrifying twist: “…I’ve found myself thinking these last few days more about the man who has shouldered the burdens of office for the past eight years, George W. Bush.” Thus begins a rant about his fellow Jews and the anti-Semitic PBS host Bill Moyers, who probably loves the Holocaust. MORE »

We didn’t think New York Times “lightning rod conservative” columnist Bill Kristol’s piece this morning was so bad after a first glance-over — it even had a number of good (i.e. not objectively false) points, about the economy! Wonkette close-reading operative “Kathleen,” however, highlights one incredible sentence that we skimmed over: “So I hope the best and the brightest who will be joining the new president will at least entertain the possibility that a lot of what they think they know is wrong.” Ha ha ha, whee! It’s true! And luckily, Bill Kristol will never have to entertain such a possibility, since it is categorically impossible for Bill Kristol to be wrong. [NYT]

For the past year, the liberal New York Times has published a comical fraud letter every Monday from its “lightning rod conservative” columnist, the Republican party operative Bill Kristol. This has provided your Wonkette with many posts! We were planning on ignoring him late last year, until the Times‘ opinion editor challenged us by calling Kristol a “serious, respected conservative intellectual” and us “intolerant.” Not only is the first half of that wrong, but Kristol doesn’t even care about his column! So will he keep it for another year? The douche himself speaks! MORE »

Here is New York Times “lightning rod conservative” columnist Bill Kristol with his latest Monday babble: “But I do think I can speak for most of my fellow right-wingers when I say this: We once looked forward with unambivalent glee to the fall of the house of Clinton. Many of us still do. But we also see the liberal media failing to give Hillary Clinton the respect she deserves. So, since we conservatives believe in giving credit where credit is due, it falls to us to praise Hillary.” We have put this through our Kristol Translator and you may read the result after the jump.

Quiet ye unenlightened Cretans, for the man’s tortured quill is ablaze with righteous argumentation! We speak of New York Times “lightning rod conservative” columnist Bill Kristol, of course, the most inquisitive and trenchant commentator in Western Hemispherical History! For his Monday column he tackles whatever the big Saturday news happened to be (as per usual). In this case it’s Barack Obama’s inflammatory selection of the adjective “bitter.” As used in a sentence in liberal San Francisco! Most conservative commentators have been running with the nitwit’s interpretation: that Obama is an unforgivable liberal elitist elitist liberal elitist. Ballyhoo and tut tut! Kristol takes that extra leap that only a Harvardian of his ethno-brainian historical knowledgo-centrism can understand: Obama is a communist! MORE »
