Well, you knew you were a fool, didn’t you? Over at New York magazine, Eric Levitz has the totally shitty news of Ted’s new totally shitty foreign policy advisors, starting off with Frank Gaffney, a guy who thinks Obama is a Muslim, along with convicted criminal Elliott Abrams,1 and, well, others.

Abrams avoided felony indictments in the wake of the Iran-Contra scandal by copping to a plea of two misdemeanor counts of withholding information from Congress. He was pardoned by President George Bush I (“Aich-Dubya”, as we say in DC), who was even a bigger liar than Elliott. ↩︎
