1. These people are absolutely mad...........

Stark, raving crazy.

They will destroy the world, you know, if something isn't done..........

3. Podhoretz Godwins just over 3 minutes in... FAIL.

heh... that seems to be his only argument.. what a stupid old man... reminds me of the way male elephants go into musth in later life and simply go barking mad and violent... Podhoretz's Musth.

4. Podhoretz belongs in a home for the criminally insane

I watched it last night. Gave me the creeps, like handling a rattlesnake. Thanks for posting the video.

5. I think Fareed Zakaria is incredible.

He's impressed me ever since I first saw him on the Daily Show some years ago. Whoever is elected President in 2008 better get Zakaria on their foreign policy team.

This Podhoretz is another right wing shill without a conscience, who wishes more innocent blood to be shed in the name of the xenophobic USA.

Zakaria draws fair parallels to containment of Mao, the USSR and Kim Jung Il; but Podhoretz has to trot out Hitler, Hitler, Hitler!

When will people realize that fear is how these people keep the public in line? Not very soon - not with a stunning 52%, in a recent Zogby poll, supporting an illegal strike on Iran.

7. Funny thing is, Zakaria is normally pretty right wing

Podhoretz is such a loon he makes Fareed look like a flower-child.

6. K&R thanks for posting. "A 'Grand Bargain' with Iran"

8. How Zakaria can keep from screaming at that madman is beyond me

My blood presure is up 20 points just watching that.

9. I know the feeling..........

I swear I'd be jailed if I had to deal with these folks face to face.

10. Thanks for posting. n/t

11. Podhoretz forgot to mention Germany was an industrial giant of its time

Iran is barely a 2nd world nation..we gotta be scared of some blowhard with barely enough weapons to defend itself much less attack America???

AMERICA, THE LAND OF THE NINNIES??

[Mr Rabble]

12. Zakaria is almost as insane as Podhoretz.

This video is about the far, far right wing debating the right wing.

Zakaria is a servant of power is there ever was one.

Podhoretz is just totally over the top insane.

This is what passes for political discourse in America.

13. It seems to me

Seems to me the very defining characteristic of the NeoCon mentality; age and flaccidity breed delusion and cowardice.

Smug AND stupid is simply no way to go through life, Mr. Podhoretz.

God help us all.
