Re: Charles Krauthammer is Funny

The man is severely disabled and a wheel chair. On a respirator.   But did this slow him down? Nope!
 
He graduated from Harvard medical school earning a MD degree. In 1985 won he the Pulitzer Prize. And because you don’t like his politics you make fun of his looks???
 
Really? And now try to make excuses why you did this? Just move on……
This is really foolish! Oh wait just a minute this is Common’s fault for bringing it up?
Shameful!

Re: Charles Krauthammer is Funny

Right, florentine.  And, what about the flip-flopping on the subject of filibusters depending on which team is running the show?  I thought that's what the topic starter was about.

Re: Charles Krauthammer is Funny

FWIW, it is quite admirable that Krauthammer has been able to become one of the most noted political writers in the country after all he has been through.

And also FWIW, he does has some very good analyses in his portfolio.

However, in this case regarding the filibuster, he's very hypocritical.

Mr Moderator…. Thanks so much for your very kind, thoughful, insightful comments!
 

Let's please dial down the sarcasm.
On the New Exchange, we have decided to eschew the personal invective that is so destructive to internet discussion boards. Please stay on the topics, and the high road. Personal arguments between posters have no place here.

Krauthammer is rather dour. I stand by that comment.
Now, have we exhausted everyone's interest in the visual appearance of this Fox Commentator?

Oh now you are going to try and take the high road?
I am making the point that Mr. Krauthammer was made fun of
because you don’t like his politics ? Nothing more than that.
Let’s mock the guy because we don’t like what he is saying!
 Now you want to play like you are an impartial party in the argument?
You are not and you know it! This is not a personal argument!


 

Common, if you believe you've been ill-treated, I am sorry. But, frankly, I don't see it that way.
You object to remarks about Krauthammer's appearance and demeanor? Fine. You've expressed that view.
Three times now, in fact.
No one tried to prevent you from doing so. No one insulted you for doing so.
So, in my mind, it is as it should be.

I cannot guarrantee that people will agree with what you write. But. we will endeaver to ensure that they are civil to you.
Please return the favor.

I'm not going to get into an argument with you over this. People have made it quite clear that they wish to avoid pissing contests.

Agreed. I don't see a Pulitzer in Chuck's future for his writing on the filibuster.
It was written in anger.
Hey, I understand the frustration. Your tribe claws it's way to majorities in both houses only to find that you still can't do whatever you want. You still need to reach out to a few guys on the other team.
Bummer.

Well, them's the rules.
