But don’t risk America’s defense with a questionable nominee just because you can use him to go after people you don’t like.

Andrew Sullivan is a child having tantrums. He doesn’t make arguments; he questions peoples motives.

He’s vulgarly denigrated Israel and American Jews on this side of the Atlantic, but has been downright ingratiating toward Israelis when confronted with them face to face in their own country. Maybe that makes him more of a fawning sycophant than a stand up truth to power guy.
