Please go down the road of calling Kristol a liberal (and nice try on the derpy switcheroo). It will be funny, Canadian. You can never admit that you simply put your foot in your mouth.

Don't sass me.
 
So your answer to getting called out on shitposting without reading is further shitposting?

Can't you just admit you didn't bother to read the tweet and just rushed to throw some half-assed jab at libruls?

I never thought you were the greatest but lately you've descended into utter garbage dude.
 
Never imo
Oh well brother here's wonderwall

It's really hard to describe the political/ideological direction of this criticism/criticism of criticism.

Kristol is a piece of shit neocon.
But he's to the left of Trump based on being more libertarian and less reactionary.
He's being criticized by someone that purports to be a traditional conservative.
Traditional conservatives are now being reconsidered to be left of neoconservatives in contemporary analysis given that they've wholly adopted the rightmost domestic policy and favor farther right foreign policy.
However, the criticism is distinctly coming from the right on the basis of him not mindlessly toeing the party line and the critic calling him an epithet associated with the left.
The party line in the case of this criticism contains approving of action that would be broadly considered left of the conservative and neoconservative position: using diplomacy over military action with former Cold War enemies.
But the motivation for the position is distinctly of a right-wing purpose and principle: being hostile to foreign enemies
A person (Frum) that is certainly to the left of both men is lamenting the rightward shift of the party to the point that Kristol is considered unacceptably left on an issue in which he's taking the rightmost position.

I guess it just hinges on the right-wing principle that not having principle and internal conformity to hierarchy is the greater value than the principle of foreign aggression.
 
One time I went to a hotel. I asked the bellhop to handle my bag.
He felt up my wife!

I asked him, "who said you could do that?"
He said, "everybody."

Indisputable top ten actors who died young and I miss:

1. Philip Seymour Hoffman
2. John Candy
3. Robin Williams
4. Anthony Bourdain
5. Heath Ledger
6. Andy Whitfield
7. Michael Clarke Duncan
8. Brittany Murphy
9. Chris Farley
10. Phil Hartman

Top three especially, though. PSH was my favorite actor. I'd watch him in anything.
 
PSH is my favorite actor of all time. Absolutely brilliant at everything in and around his craft. I miss him greatly.
 
Extremely disputable and possibly disrespectful top five actors who died young and it didn't really matter:

5. Jonathan Brandis
4. Brad Renfro
3. Tyler Negron
2. River Phoenix
1. Christopher Penn
 
I don’t think I consider Anthony Bourdain to be an actor tbh.

There are so many movies that are completely carried by him. God's Pocket comes to mind.


Btw, the New York Times is hilarious:

oh, nyt; le sigh

As subtle as he played that role, he couldn't not shine brighter than the sum of its parts.
 
It’s one of my favorite “underground”/unknown movies.

“Did you just..... you just threw my gun in the lake”

Have you seen State of Grace with Sean Penn and Gary Oldman? About the Irish mob.

There’s a scene where Penn throws an Italian gangster’s gun in the river and says, “I hope that was your favorite gun. I hope you love that gun.”

Always liked that line.
 
A conservative called a phony conservative an SJW.

Bill Krystol...LOL

Never Trump conservatives like Bill Krystol are more conservative than you internet Trump worshipers will ever be.


Trump is a populist, not a conservative.
