Let’s not forget about Bill Kristol
While the media slices and dices last night’s primary, let’s not forget the fact that the serious “intellectual conservative” Bill Kristol, in his very first column for The New York Times, has already been found to be wrong on two major points.
Firstly, he misattributed a quote to conservative pundit Michelle Malkin, when in fact the quote came from Michael Medved.
Also, in the very first paragraph, Kristol said this:
Thank you, Senator Obama. You’ve defeated Senator Clinton in Iowa. It looks as if you’re about to beat her in New Hampshire. There will be no Clinton Restoration. A nation turns its grateful eyes to you.
If someone had come up to me and said, “Simon, what’s the best possible way Kristol could embarrass himself and epitomize the degree of his wrongness on just about any matter of significance?” I wouldn’t have been able to devise such an outcome.
As I said, this is his very first column. What more will come from this train wreck of a pundit in future months?
