Mr. Krauthhammer is a very intellegent man, who thinks long and hard before what he has to say, comes out of his mouth. I respect that!
I too, remember him and Karl Rove teaming in their comments against Ms. O'Donnell as she campaigned for Senator for Delaware.
The proof of their decision to side with Mr. Coons will more than likely play out sometime down the road I suspect.
One thing always bothers me about this is that I can be sure they know about Mr. Coons background for loving the United States and the Constitution.
How can one love the United States and its freesoms and at the same time, embrace Marxism?

Dear Mr. Krauthammer:
Whenever you are on a Fox panel, I am all ears because when you speak, it is well thought out and seems to be the answwer that everyone was waiting for.
However, I think you and Karl Rove are wrong for joining with other media people in downing Ms. O'Donnel of DE! I think the public would be better served if you concentrated some of your remarks on Chris Coons who reportedly claims to be a Marxist!
Sincerely,
Larry Cooper

Mr. K. is brilliant. He is able to break down and get to the heart of complex issues and situations.
I know he will not run for political office but I wish he would. He would make a great adviser to a President of the USA. Obama could use him - but probably will not.
What do people think of Charles?
People say: Charles Krauthammer is brilliant, incredibly smart. He is trustworthy and not very sexy.
He is a classy, fearless and powerful hero.

Your comments about Charles Krauthammer
This Kraut Wants American Hegemony!
Charles Krauthhammer is a nationally syndicated newspaper columnist with the Washington Post Writers Group. He also writes for Time magazine and the Weekly Standard. Although he once worked in the administration of Democrat Jimmy Carter, his views today are typically neoconservative and sometimes reactionary.
Krauthammer was born in New York City and raised in Montreal. He was educated at McGill University, majoring in political science and economics. He attended medical school at Harvard (M.D. in 1975), then practiced medicine for three years as a resident and then chief resident in psychiatry at Massachusetts General Hospital.
In 1978, he quit medical practice and moved to Washington to direct planning in psychiatric research for the Jimmy Carter administration. He began contributing articles to The New Republic. During the presidential campaign of 1980, he served as a speech writer to Vice President Walter Mondale. He joined The New Republic as a writer and editor in 1981.
Krauthammer writes a monthly essay for Time magazine and contributes to several other publications, including The Weekly Standard (edited by fellow neoconservative William Kristol) and The New Republic. He has received numerous awards, including the National Magazine Award for essays and the first annual ($250,000) Bradley Prize.
Krauthhammer is a member of the Project for the New American Century, a neoconservative organization which promotes global American leadership. His perspective is that the United States is a superpower and it should assert its authority and invite others to be part of it. Consonant with this stance, he is a vocal supporter of the Iraq war.
In the June 2001 of The Weekly Standard, Krauthammer wrote in reference to the United States that "we run a uniquely benign imperium. This is not mere self-congratulation; it is a fact manifest in the way others welcome our power."
