So did I. Who didn't?

FTFA: There are a number of reasons behind Rudy Giuliani's sinking political fortunes, but one person who may bear considerable responsibility for them is Giuliani's senior foreign policy adviser, Norman Podhoretz.

Unfit? Maybe. One reason behind his sinking fortunes? Most likely. Headline fails.

Infomercial disguised as crappy opinion piece, moving on with my life...

I think Giuliani's biggest problem is that he's Rudy Giuliani.

I'm less concerned about Poddy's attempts to land Jackie O ( and seriously, you ever see pics of Ms. Bouvier-Kennedy-Onasis in her prime? Who WOULDN'T at least try?) and more concerned that Young Norman is one of the Chief architects of both the PNAC and the war in Iraq..

fark Norman Podhoretz and fark Giuliani. They're both ghouls that thrive on the fears of the public about terrorism and both shamelessly exploit tragedies to promote their bigoted and undemocratic agendas in the middle east.

No more farking neocons. They've ruined this country enough.

Huffigton Post is ruthlessly slandering conservatives now too? Guess they got to balance their crap.

FTA:

At the time, Jackie, still in her thirties, was the stunningly beautiful and glamorous but fragile widow of John F. Kennedy, and, arguably the most sought after woman in the world. Podhoretz, by contrast, was the sometimes witty and charming but less-than-stunningly-handsome husband of Midge Decter, lived on the less-than-fashionable Upper West Side, and, when it came to stylish attire, was given to dowdy brown suits and brown shoes. Nevertheless, according to Podhoretz, they struck an "instant rapport" and "at her initiative" had tea regularly alone in her Fifth Avenue apartment--which was enough, apparently, to put ideas in his head.

CONTEXT:

= Creepy.

Did you even RTFA?

I would hardly call it "ruthlessly slandering" anyone.

It's closer to "Infomercial disguised as crappy opinion piece" as noted by choice and consequence above.

Settle down.

That all is true, but this article by Craig Unger is just more sexploitation/innuendo nonsense at the expense of the Kennedy's. It's tiring.

What do you call it when someone reaches the correct conclusion using specious reasoning?

Presidents bullet-ridden body in the street
Ride, johnny ride
Kennedys shattered head hits concrete
Ride, johnny ride

Texas is an outrage when your husband is dead
Texas is an outrage when they pick up his head
Texas is the reason that the presidents dead
You gotta suck, suck, jackie suck

Having the hots for Jackie-O is quite possibly the most redeeming thing about Podhoretz.

And it has nothing to do with Captain 9/11. His unfit status is entirely his own doing. Though being advised by Podhoretz doesn't help.

But there (9/11) are so many (9/11) other(9/11) reasons he's (9/11) unfit.

Meh. We'll probably find out one of Huckabee's advisers made a pass at Aristotle Onassis 40 years ago, too.

 
SpacePunk 2007-12-27 08:16:10 PM  
So, he's guilty of hiring someone that's incompetant? That's the only description for someone with less than a billion dollars that would make a pass at one of the biggest gold diggers that ever lived.
