Klein Kicks Krauthammer In The Wheelchair

joe-kleinWe may have hit a new low in the category of tasteless, ignorant comments made by one pundit about another . . .

Politico has an article today about Charles Krauthammer rightly depicting him as an eminently articulate and influential conservative critic of Pres. Obama.  Then comes this [emphasis added]:

“There’s something tragic about him too,” Klein said, referring to Krauthammer’s confinement to a wheelchair, the result of a diving accident during his first year of medical school. “His work would have a lot more nuance if he were able to see the situations he’s writing about.”

There really are no words to express my contempt for Klein, but perhaps our readers can compose a few . . .

    Does the phrase “doesn’t rise to the level of pond scum” work for you?

    But I’ll stick with my mother’s favorite:
    No class, all A$$

    It’s a priority to watch Special Report on Fox specifically to hear Charles Krauthammer’s comments; I have found Krauthammer, to the point, succinct and correct. I make it a point not to purchase, read or search for any information from Time. Time has lost impartiality and creditability.

    Thank God no one pays attention to Joe Klein….
    and what is his problem??…dropped on his head as an infant?
    Even people with half a brain know how outrageous his remark is.

    Krauthammer ROCKS! I didn’t know he was in a chair, how unobservant of me.
    He is one of the most intelligent and logical guys I have heard on TV.
    Hearing Joe’s comment angers me on so many levels, and I have only one thing to say to him.
    You are an “Anderson Cooper” to be sure! (You are so ignorant, I will spell it out…that is not a good thing)

    Only a self-serving blow-hard, left-wing elitist would say something as despicable as this…he and his ilk live in a protected bubble,protected by each other… somebody needs to stick a pin in it…big-time.

    Krauthammer sees more with his eyes closed than Mr. Anonymous will ever see, in his filthy lifetime on this planet.

    Charles is probably the most articulate, correct-thinking commentator out there. I love him as much as I love Rush. To mock the man is indicative of a small mind and member!
