The Farcical William Kristol
Update: It only took half the day, but Bill Kristol acknowledged that he is full of it.
The notion that New York Times columnist William Kristol knows anything about what is "hip and trendy" is laughable on its face.
The fact that The New York Times lets him pretend that his does is just embarrassing:
Sunday evening, Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner held a “Generation Obama” fund-raiser at Boston’s Rumor Nightclub. In case you’re not up on the Boston club scene, I should tell you that Rumor “brings together the sexiest and hippest people from around the globe” and “has raised the bar in Boston’s night life” (if Rumor may say so itself). Presumably, Ben and Jennifer raised the bar a notch further on Sunday.
I'm not even going to go on.
Kristol maintains his record of having a, easily verified, factual error in every one of his columns. This time, it is trying to put Obama where he wasn't:
The error is in trusting the source without checking.
The truth is that Obama did not attend church on July 22.
He was on his way to campaign in Miami.
(Here is some video evidence.) This was before he signed an agreement forbidding himself from campaigning in Florida.
Here is the original, false, Newsmax story:
Obama Attended Hate America Sermon.
But then again, Kristol's column is not about presenting his take on anything other than smearing Democrats with demonstrable falsehoods.
Note to Dan Riehl: Yes it does matter when the "paper of record" asserts as fact, something that is not true.
Via Memeorandum.
