Bias edit

The bias is so flagrant when you all reference Media Matters. He's not a journalist, he's a pundit. 68.84.8.249 20:24, 21 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Indeed. The quotes chosen, when sourced at all, were unreliably sourced, and original research. They were all obviously chosen with the intent of making Kristol look bad. One would hope that some quotes can be found from reliable, secondary sources. Jayjg 04:12, 11 September 2008 (UTC)Reply
Making Kristol look bad? Ha! Bill Kristol doesn't need any help to make himself look bad. He does that all by himself. It's people like him who are responsible for the Middle East mess. If he had had any brains he'd have known the Iraq War was a huge mistake, and if he had had any balls he'd have apologized for being one of the Neocons who put America on the road to bankruptcy. If some quotes demonstrate that truth and you or Kristol don't like it? Tough shit. Wikiquote is not in the business of concealing the sins of Neocons.Disbelieber (talk) 14:17, 30 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
Bill kristol is nothing but a mouth piece for the establishment which I hope will become a dying breed in US politics.

I agree with the OP and @Jayjg:. I'll try to add more quotes to give some balance. – Illegitimate Barrister (talkcontribs) 08:44, 23 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
