Bill Kristol Seeks Nomination for 'Strange New Respect' Award?

We may need to dust off the trophy (named by longtime American Spectator correspondent Tom Bethell) for presentation to the Weekly Standard's editor who, in a column about the Egypt crisis, elbowed Charles Krauthammer and dissed Glenn Beck in such a way as to merit this headline from the Politico:

Kristol rebukes ‘hysterical' Beck,
conservatives on Egypt

My friend Professor Donald Douglas has written hopefully of "Egypt's Neoconservative Moment," but there apparently is a split among the neocons. My own Burkean view is that Egypt's future seems more likely to be rather paleo, if you catch my drift.
