Hypocrisy, Thy Name is Kristol

Read here a startling example of rank hypocrisy, gag reflex inducing false humility, class warfare language, and all this written by a New York Times columnist.

William Kristol takes Obama to task for not including military service as a way to serve one's country in his commencement address at Wesleyan University recently.

Kristol, like so many neo-cons, performed no military service himself. Cheney had how many deferments? Bush II avoided harm's way through family influence.

However, it's not surprising that a neo-con would write such crap. Their first choice for achieving power, influence, hegemony anywhere they can is war, as long as they don't have to risk their own sorry asses.

I wrote an email to this particular sorry ass in response to his column, and thoroughly enjoyed writing it. Perhaps you will too, if you read the column.
