Powerline turns against Rice, and against Giuliani
For several years I’ve been deriding Condoleezza Rice as Bush’s “twin brain” and as a woman motivated primarily by vanity, even as the mainstream conservatives continued to worship at her feet. Now Commentary’s blog, approvingly quoted by Powerline, declares that the empress of Annapolis is “a narcissist or a fool.” However, as shifts in the wind go, calling Rice a narcissist and a fool is nothing compared with the preceding item at Powerline. Are you sitting down? Paul of Powerline attacks Rudolph Giuliani for what he sees as a dishonest attack by Giuliani on Romney. Paul then says that Giuliani evinces such a grandiose notion of his power to affect society that he not only is not a conservative, but “may be a little dangerous.” [Italics added.] What? Folks, that’s Powerline, the court blog of the neocons, saying that the neocons’ candidate and hero, Giuliani, “may be a little dangerous.” Something’s going on here and I have no idea what it is.

To give an idea of how strange it is for Paul to be speaking of Giuliani in such harsh terms, look at the way he was gushing over Giuliani last February: Posted by Lawrence Auster at November 28, 2007 02:04 AM | Send Email entry |
