Stewart and Kristol...who ya got?

Bill Kristol from the Weekly Standard on the Daily Show.

I give him credit for even going on the show, but it's just so much fun to see him get hammered on every single point...sometimes not even realizing he's getting hammered (see "cost of weapons inspectors" dig).

And if you've got a spare hour, read the comments. Mostly pretty heated, but good points on both sides.

I like Kristol. I at least get the sense that he has a belief system. Unlike, say, Brit "Just Give Me The RNC Talking Points" Hume. Look closely enough and you can see the Right-Wing Puppetmaster's hand shoved straight up his ass.

There was a great exchange a few weeks ago on Fox News Sunday between Kristol & Hume over Harriet Miers. Here's a partial transcript I found in the "No Left Turns" Archive:

On Fox News Sunday, when Bill Kristol suggested that Judges Edith Jones or Alice Batchelder would have been better picks, Hume interrupted:

"Bill, I can tell you this about Alice Batchelder. She was very, very closely vetted. And you know what they found? They found all kinds of evidence of activism in her record. And they were quite surprised and not pleased to find that."

When Kristol questioned this new smear tactic, Brit incredulously suggested that this is something he found on his own. But, as Brit’s first statement makes clear, the only way he could have gotten this information about White House opinion is by hearing it from the White House (unless of course he is simply reporting second hand reports—which would mean that he was engaging in rather loose reporting practices).

...Anyway, Hume's a hack. Get him on The Daily Show.
