When Pulitzer Prize-winning Charles Krauthammer speaks, everyone should listen. Regardless of what you may think of Fox contributers and conservatives in general, you can't get more middle-of-the-road nor more intelligent and bipartisan than Krauthammer. I'd give up the entirety of Fox News (and CNN and MSNBC etc) pundits for him alone. He's a class act, and I hold his opinions as trustworthy and reliable. He's not Hannity or Rush or Beck -- he's a real scholar. That said... I hope he's wrong here! Talk about disastrous for the economy! When I first watched Krauthammer, I thought he was paralyzed because he sat there (and still does) immobile. But ... where in the world do you get your information? Even before Obama decided to run for President, Krauthammer encouraged him to run so that he could lose even though the Nation wanted a black President. He's characterized the President's legislative proposals as radical, Obamaism, ominous, a social democratic agenda, and states that the President's character is highly suspect. "Middle-of-the-road"? Madonne! He is paralyzed from the chest down. I think he had a diving accident in medical school. But yes, he is quite right-wing. Yes, I looked it up and he is paralyzed from a diving accident like you posted. Well, his intellect is unaffected, but as I posted above he is definitely not fair-minded. My God, he's an editor of the National Review and right out of the William Buckley school. But a VAT. Why are we getting so emotional about something that doesn't exist as described by some posters. Don't we have enough that actually does exist to get emotional about? You know, if I had been an Anti-Federalist back in 1787 I could have legitimately objected to the whole idea of a Constitution because it "might" result in everything that it has resulted in that I don't presently like. Thus, no Constitution and probably no Nation.
