Conrad Black on the US election

January 12, 2008 By admin

“Though quite enterprising, Wolf Blitzer, when he worked for us at the Jerusalem Post, was one of the most avaricious journalists I have known. After about 40 assertions from him in 20 minutes on New Hampshire night, that CNN has ‘the top news team on television,’ I had either to change channels or find a sick bag.”

(…)

“In policy terms, Senator Obama is a $3 bill. He is an attractive and intelligent man, speaks well and has some of the cadences and inflection, though little of the justified moral outrage, (though he tries to simulate it), of Martin Luther King Jr. His program, disinterred from all the bunk about ‘change,’ which the country doesn’t need or want, (apart from the reduction of the $800-billion current account deficit and its implications); is 1) The largest tax increase in world history; 2) A complete and instant bug-out in Iraq; 3) Dealing with terrorism by sitting down and rapping with the terrorists; 4) An unholy war on the drug, insurance, banking and oil industries.”
