Once again, Kristol blew persuasion
Submitted by vastleft on Tue, 2007-08-14 10:31.
On The Daily Show, Bill Kristol pulls off a Glenn Greenwald hat trick:
1. He says “serious” or “seriously” six times in a seven-minute interview
2. He called O’Hanlon and Pollack “skeptics of the war”
3. He called General Petraeus “non-partisan.”
On the second point, Stewart summoned his inner Greenwald: “They weren’t really skeptics. Ken Pollack would like us to invade Iran, for godsakes. Those are very hawkish guys.”
Cliché though it is, Comedy Central is yet again doing a better job than the entire news media.

No authoritarians were tortured in the writing of this post.
Stewart was too easy on Kristol
Stewart really let kristol off easy.
This is THE biggest bullshit artist of the Neocon Media bobbleheads. Disappointed.
