Bill Kristol right, for once...back in 2003

re: Kristol (0.00 / 0)

Ahh... from Katha Pollitt's mouth to your ears. Tres original!

How many times does this fellow have to prove himself wrong -- egregiously and humiliatingly so -- before the chattering classes realizes he's a charlatan?

You mean like your being wrong on just about every subject? Take for instance the claim that in only a few years Montana will be a "progressive" state, and that Missoula will replace Billings as the economic and cultural centre of Montana life. Then there was the post on how solar cells should replace coal  in Montana, etc, etc, etc. It would seem that in many ways your track record is somehow eerily similar to what you claim of Kristol. Pot meet kettle.

er... (0.00 / 0)

A) I'm not a NYTimes columnist.

B) I actually believe that MT is a "progressive" state, now. Certainly relating to economics. There's plenty of proof, too. The citizens' stance on trade, minimum wage, the Patriot Act, taxation, you name it...all progressive. You make claims, but back nothing up with fact.

C) You are free to stop reading anytime you like. Yet you constantly return and troll the comments. Interesting...

BTW, on coal... (0.00 / 0)

Your attitude towards MT on this one is pretty insulting. You're basically claiming MTians would prefer submitting to a dead-end industry that pollutes, is more expensive, and keeps them dependent on multinational corporations. IMHO, I think most folks around here would know a raw deal when they see it.

Pandering (0.00 / 0)

The Times is probably pandering to the right - they were never anchored anyway. If Kristol was wrong about Iraq, so was the Times. Let's not forget that they gave us Judy Miller.
