Most excellent. Rudy Giuliani has named newly-determined crackpot Norman Podhoretz as one of his key foreign policy advisors.
Here’s Norm discussing the need to bomb Iran to “smithereens” and here he is explaining how the Iraq War has been a huge success and how the WMD were actually carted off to Syria before we could find them.
This has to be the best appointment Rudy’s made since Thomas Ravenel (indicted for dealing coke) his South Carolina campaign chair and Sen. David Vitter (aka Sen. Wild Thang) his Southern Regional Chairman.
Hard to believe this is the same guy who made Bernie Kerik the top cop in New York City.
Hard to believe.
(ed.note: Should anyone wonder, I’m quite aware of the vaunted if arguably pernicious role Podhoretz played in the intellectual history of modern conservativsm. But anyone who holds those views and expresses them thusly is quite deservedly termed a crackpot.)
