WAR WHORE KRISTOL ISN'T TOO BRIGHT, EITHER

ThinkProgress found this great quote from Billy that is just about as stupid and ignorant as Wolfowitz's remark about there being no history of ethnic strife in Iraq.

And on this issue of the Shia in Iraq, I think there's been a certain amount of, frankly, Terry, a kind of pop sociology in America that, you know, somehow the Shia can't get along with the Sunni and the Shia in Iraq just want to establish some kind of Islamic fundamentalist regime. There's almost no evidence of that at all.¹

Atrios has brought this up before and it deserves repeating: Why are so many people who have been so wrong about Iraq (and many other things) still given air time and op-ed space?
