    Political leanings aside, anyone who's ever watched or listened to and paid attention to Charles Krauthammer, has to admit, the man was brilliant regarding both foreign and domestic political and policy matters, and was proven right much more often than not. I guess you could say he's "an academic" but he's an academic who uses reason and common sense to guide him. He was a true American Patriot of our times.

    If you've never learned of his life and what led him to his physical paralysis earlier in his life, it's all very interesting and a good read. In spite of it all he still passed Harvard Medical and graduated to become a renowned Psychiatrist . The man is truly an inspiration from the stand point of being a fighter and never ceasing to educate himself.


    From his Washington Post Political Column ...

    I felt kinda choked up by this news today. I admired him and respected his point of view.

    I am aware of the farewell letter.

    Leaving aside totally all political stuff, Ive always liked him. I did not always agree with him sometimes. But he will be missed.

    He probably will go into Hospice when it's too painful to exist and they will help him pass on without too much suffering. It wont take long. I lost a trucker in my building a couple of weeks ago, when he decided to go ahead and start hospice he was dead in 40 hours. It was his time. Smoking killed him essentially. So he did that to himself.

    I didn't always agree with everything he had to say but nonetheless, he was an intelligent man worth listening too.
    Very smart.
