Has George Will ever been right?

I watched the ABC version of fair and balanced this morning;the George alphabet ous round table!
As I sat their listening to George Will the pundit for the right I wondered who signed his pay check!
How many times I've heard him say they (the leaders of the left) have little or no common sense!
Well George by your own standard I'm judging you! You don't have a penny's worth of common sense; in fact friend you have been running on empty for some time now!
Here is something you can look up on your own George an report back next week.(the truth)
when conservatives are in power their is more corruption and cost over runs than when the left is in office!(that's fact George look it up)
For the guy signing your paycheck- you might tune in once an a while -your not getting
your money's worth!

He has been right in proving that bowtie-wearing Chickenhawk Republicon propaganda twits are uptight and full of fright.

2. Yes he has
The question is: Has he ever been left?

Being that the left is nearly always correct, has GW ever been correct?
Not that I know of.

7. Agree. It's his one long suit. Just about everything else that ever came
out of the man's mouth is codswallop.

4. He wants to repeal the 14th Amendment.
That's all I need to know about George Will.

5. George Will is occassionally right on some things
when not making pointless basesball analogies.

Time to Get Out of Afghanistan http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/08/31/AR2009083102912.html

9. Unfortunately, that just means that in ain't just yet time to get out.....
and that Obama is right.

Will has never been accurate about making predictions,
and he ain't here either.....even if you would prefer that he was.

This just reinforces the fact that Obama, as usual, is correct.

10. When I read that article I thought he was right until I got to the end...
When you read to the second to last paragraph of the article this is Will's "solution" for Afghanistan...

So, instead, forces should be substantially reduced to serve a comprehensively revised policy: America should do only what can be done from offshore, using intelligence, drones, cruise missiles, airstrikes and small, potent Special Forces units, concentrating on the porous 1,500-mile border with Pakistan, a nation that actually matters.


Even when it looks like George Will is starting to become a bit more reasonable he has to go and prove to us that he is still the same chickenhawk he always was, he still wants to kill civilians he just wants to use air strikes instead of ground troops.

taken a deep breath.
