>> Krauthammer is an out and out neocon. I don't know about "neocon" versus "conservative". AFAIK they're the same thing. And yes, he is a conservative. HOWEVER, it is a rarity that the man is wrong. And he certainly was NOT in his analysis of the "Bush Doctrine" entrapment attempt by Gibson. Gibson blundered. Not a little, but badly. Look, Gibson HIMSELF has defined Bush Doctrine in multiple ways. It was clear he was trying to entrap the woman and she didn't fall for it. Did she know what the Bush Doctrine is? No. Neither did Gibson. And neither did you or the others here. To a person, the liberals on this thread have MISUNDERSTOOD what the term "Bush Doctrine" means (and in fact, it means one of several things, depending on whom you're speaking with). Your criticism of Krauthammer is on ideological grounds. But the truth of the matter is that he almost always presents impeccable logic in his arguments. The man is brilliant individual with a deeper understanding of politics than just about anyone. And while I find Geo. Will to be a pushover at times, there is little doubt he is one of the smartest people talking about politics today. I'm curious. What liberal commentators would you suggest are on the level of these two, intellectually? I can think of a couple, but I'd like to know just who it is you think might be on their level(s).
