[...] it turns out, is among the worst of his colleagues in this regard, having been wrong about every significant foreign policy and military question of the past decade. He claimed our Kosovo intervention would result in a “quagmire” for the U.S. and its [...]

[...] It is evident that at least several of the major columnists, such as Thomas Friedman and Charles Krauthammer, have performed terribly in their duties to inform the large swath of the citizenry who read [...]

I have read Krauthammer since 1985, and your analysis of him is vanishingly superficial. He suffers from what you might call the “Limbaugh effect”: with a corpus so large, cherry-picking statements is easy and cheap. You then flog your cherries and avoid any mention of why he is famous and highly regarded. I suppose all of the people who admire him are idiots, but you are the brilliant truth talker. Good luck with the book–if this analysis is representative, you’re gonna need it.

Couple of thoughts …

Unfortunately, I have both read and seen/heard Krauthammer’s comments in the past [still conflicted regarding whether the thoughts he has expressed are more disconcerting than his visage proclaiming them].

There appears to be a huge [and growing] lack of “cognitive dissonance” on the Right in this country that is quite worrisome.

Mr. Brown: I found you through LGF and have both enjoyed plumbing your archives and reading your prose … you are now a daily read for me … please post more often.

Oh yeh … and … “thanks for all the fish” : )

An unaffiliated centrist

[...] Incidentally, Charles Krauthammer is full of shit. The inexplicably Pulitzer-winning columnist was interviewed recently by Der Spiegel regarding his thoughts on the Obama Administration thus far and made the following observation about the alleged naivety of our most rising president’s foreign policy fundamentals: [...]

I wouldn’t elevate that kind of thinking to a doctrine because I have too much respect for the word doctrine.

Nonetheless, Krauthammer enthusiastically put Bush alongside the word.

Yet another inconsistency.

In all seriousness, Krauthammer probably isn’t even aware that he’s been so wrong about so many things. One can easily get the impression that the fellow hasn’t gone back and re-read his old columns; if he has, he probably engages in various sorts of mental gymnastics in order to protect himself from cognitive dissonance. Ironically enough, Krauthammer started out as a psychiatrist.
