That Wacky, Wacky Krauthammer and Politico
Posted by Michael Cohen

Did you see that Politico named its top 50 politicos and Charles Krauthammer made the list!

With Democrats ascendant in Washington and the GOP a shambles, Krauthammer’s clear, concise criticism of left-wing orthodoxy could make the Obama era his, as well. Said New York Times columnist David Brooks: “He’s the most important conservative columnist right now.”

Apparently in offering this designation to Charles Krauthammer, Politico reporter Michael Calderone failed to mention that Charles Krauthammer likes to write things that simply aren't true. Joe Cirincione has the goods:

Washington Post senior columnist Charles Krauthammer wants Russia to build more nuclear weapons. Why? Because he thinks we can shoot them out of the sky like clay pigeons. This is simply not true. The Post's promotion of this fantasy could lead to global disaster.

He claims, "We can reliably shoot down an intercontinental ballistic missile." This is demonstrably false. We cannot now reliably shoot down a real long-range missile. We have never been able to do this and there is no prospect that we will able to do this in the future. Claims that we can are not true. People who repeat these claims are not telling the truth.

Keep up the good work Chuck . . . and you too Politico!

Hi,
Politico has slipped over the edge and become a liberal enabler....

This is demonstrably false. We cannot now reliably shoot down a real long-range missile. We have never been able to do this and there is no prospect that we will able to do this in the future

The Moray comes in a unique military style roll up case which houses the Replica Lancaster Watches and all the accessories. It includes a wide set of accessories like an extra butterfly clasp, two additional leather straps, and tools to change the strap and size the bracelet. All of the accessories, warranty card, and spare links can fit in the roll up case and are secured by a leather strap. The Replica Gucci Watches comes with a lot of accessories and this is a nice and accessible way to store them.A word of advice: the Replica Emporio Armani Watches I received had never had the bracelet removed, and I must admit that I snapped a lug screw clean out of the fitting when trying to remove it. After speaking directly with Steve at Benarus, I learned that a defect at the factory left some of the Replica Boucheron Watches with loc-tite on the lug screws. This is an unfortunate way to get a Replica Burberry Watches -- second-hand deal not-withstanding. Steve was kind enough to send a set of lug screws via mail, and in the process, portrayed one of the best reasons to consider a good boutique brand for your next Replica Calvin Klein Watches: top notch customer service. A couple of emails and what could have been a nightmare for a buyer new to the brand turned into an opportunity for a repeat purchase. Once the new lug bars were installed, I quickly removed the bracelet and tried out the included leather straps. My set came with a thick high tan leather (almost a suede finish), and a classy black alligator strap. Both are very nice, but this Replica DKNY Watches is best on the bracelet. It is fantastically well built: a 5 link screwed in design that is quiet and has yet to pull any hairs.I also tried the Replica Citizen Watches on a run down Hirsch Liberty (Replica Givenchy Watches), and a Maratac Elite composite strap. The Benarus Moray seems to look good on anything. After many changes (the new screws are holding up brilliantly), I have settled on the bracelet; it is one of the few examples that would be comparable to the bracelet on the Seiko Monster (SKX779) and thanks to screwed links (not collar pins), the Benarus bracelet is far easier to size. The case is likely my favorite part of this Replica Guess Watches; nothing I have ever had compares to the shape and finish of the Moray case.
