Crazy talk coming from Krauthammer
Unbalanced Fox News and spreaders of its output, President Trump most notably, are pitiful and contemptible. There is a word for anti-socialists, enemies of the public interest, capitalist tools who do not blush at torture and murder: sociopaths. Crazy talkers creating tragedies they blame on others.
Locally, we read their opinions on the editorial page of the Observer-Reporter. A recent letter to the editor praised the newspaper for adding conservative Charles Krauthammer to its gallery of commentators. Krauthammer is not new to the O-R, but his entire column promoted the socialist goal of national health care, which sounds as crazy coming from him as Krauthammer’s fan in composing his tribute
Today, as Republican senators overturn tradition in voting for a Supreme Court justice, Krauthammer is in the paper crowing about condign punishment for Democrat defenders of a “living Constitution,” who for a generation to come will face a court bound by tradition. Almost funny in his irrationality, Krauthammer joins Trump and their sad-clown supporters in maintaining a toxic environment.
President Trump was also recently in the Observer-Reporter, below the fold on page two: “United States blasts Syria base with cruise missiles,” after thoughtfully alerting Russia beforehand. Syrian casualties were light, if any, which is a good thing. Publicly, Russia responded that Syria did not poison its rebels and is a sovereign state under attack by the United States. Privately, a deal among sociopaths is in the works, or the Syrian president would not be demonstrating his bona fides in that department.
