Bush Derangement Syndrome (BDS) is a pejorative political term coined by the American conservative political columnist Charles Krauthammer in a 2003 column. There's not much more to say about it than what already is in the Bush Derangement Syndrome article. Not enough content to be an independent article. It should be merged into this article. Please contact an admin at WP:AN to close this merge proposal on or after 19:37, 15 September 2007. Thanks. -- Jreferee ( Talk) 19:37, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
Clearly the consensus is against the merge, so I've removed the tags. CWC 22:18, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
I find it interesting two users only edit Krauthammer articles, and are nearly anonymous. Looking at their edits, material that could cast Krauthammer in a less than ideal light is immediately removed without discussion. I wonder if we could have a PR firm on our hands... Abe Froman 15:41, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
I added a section on criticism because I although it wasn't an overtly biased article, I thought information on his awards (i.e. his Pulitzer), a clear indication of praise, warrant mention of the criticism he's received. When I edited, the only included criticism was from Fukuyama, so I added some other criticism. I also added a "Criticism" section and made the "Foreign Policy" and "Ideas" sections completely separate, which I hope others will agree make the entry easier to navigate. I hope this is a helpful contribution. Langtry ( talk) 22:04, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
In striving for NPOV, I deleted part of what I added to this entry because someone who read it told me it may be read as biased. Although I think we both agree it provides illumination onto Krauthammer's distortions, for which he's been critcized, I don't think it's helpful to have an example that some people might think is progressively biased. The part I deleted was on Krauthammer's use of a misleading partial quote by Hugo Chavez on which he made it seem Chavez was making anti-Semitic remarks, but after more consideration I decided it's likely that it would just seem like a defense of Chavez or criticism of Krauthammer's views on Chavez. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Langtry ( talk • contribs) 18:57, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
There seems to be some back and forth with the user Straits over the criticism section. He has repeatedly deleted something I added, which others (and just now I) have put back in. Here is what I wrote on Straits' talk page, which I hope will clarify the edit:
Hi, thanks for pointing to the Washington Post article, "Journalists Say Their White House Advice Crossed No Line," in response to the criticism section of the Charles Krauthammer page. However, I'm confused as to why you repeatedly deleted the part of the criticism section that says Krauthammer acted as a consultant on Bush's innauguration speech. The article to which you point makes the same argument: "Krauthammer and Kristol have drawn some criticism since a Jan. 22 Post article described them as among those consulting on the inaugural address.
Liz Spayd, the paper's assistant managing editor for national news, said: "We stand by the story we wrote. We have a firsthand source who says it was crystal clear a primary purpose of the meeting was to seek advice on both Bush's inaugural and State of the Union speeches."
There is enough evidence from credible sources (the Post being a major paper that clearly you refer to, as do I) to put that information on Krauthammer's page. However, I think it's a good idea to include Krauthammer's response, which I added based on the Post article you cited. Take care, Langtry ( talk) 19:44, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
Once again the user straits has changed the criticism section in a way that is overtly POV. I tried conversing with the user via this page as well as their talk page and have gotten no response. The user, according to mentions in their past edits, disagrees with the criticism that Krauthammer praised Bush's innaugural speech publicly while omitting that he helped write it - a charge Krauthammer denies. I had added this criticism, which Streits deleted, pointing to a Washington Post article which says that Krauthammer denies the allegation, although stands by an earlier Post article that says he did indeed serve as an adviser to the innaugural speech (Washington Post, "Journalists Say Their White House Advice Crossed No Line," Howard Kurtz, 29 January 2008.). I appreciate the cite and undid Streits' revision but added the info from the Post article. Streits then changed my edit, leaving the criticism, but removed the Post citation and included a very overtly partisan description of the "facts" about how Krauthammer did not help on the speech - facts with no citation and which, as far I can tell, are based only on Krauthammer's claims in the Post (which the article disagrees with). I'm therefore changing Streits' edit and re-inserting the Post cite. I'm keeping most of what Streits added in terms of Krauthammer's denial but clarifying that those are Krauthammer's claims, not verified facts, unless Streits or someone else can provide a reliable citation other than Krauthammer's say-so. I'd really like Streits to respond so we can talk this out in the talk page rather than having this "edit war." I'm not really sure what to do from here. Should I tag this page for POV or something like that? (I;m new to editing). Please help! Thanks. Langtry ( talk) 15:29, 18 July 2008 (UTC)
After the newest edit to the Criticism section, which claims the Post noted that Krauthammer attended a meeting on Mid-East policy, not on Bush's inaugural speech, I re-read the cited Post piece and, as far as I can understand, the Post in fact only reports Krauthammer's claims to that end and in fact explicitly contradicts his claims. I have left the following message for Streits, who made the edit, on their talking page. I am leaving it here as well in hopes that Streits will respond so we can discuss this seeming miscommunication (I am not changing the edit as it seems we've gotten into an edit war, which is not productive):
Hello again Streits,
Regarding Charles Krauthammer's page, I noticed that you again changed my edit citing my "bias." I ask that you will please not assume my bias as I am trying to incorporate the information you provided (thanks, again) in the way I've understood it, which of course could be incorrectly, but is not a matter of bias. On the page (which I have not changed), you say that the Washington Post notes that the Krauthammer did not advise on Bush's innauguration speech, but instead only attended a meeting on Middle East policy. In contrast, I had attributed those claims to Krauthammer himself. I'm hoping you can clarify your position. In the citation you provide, the Post writes: "Krauthammer, whose op-ed column runs in The Post and is syndicated by The Washington Post Writers Group, said of his participation in a Jan. 10 meeting at the White House that it was "an informal, off-the-record discussion of U.S. Middle East policy. . . . This meeting was not designed to be the exercise in speech preparation. Nor did I have that impression during the meeting itself that it was. If I had, I would have mentioned it when commenting on it." It later says: " Krauthammer and Kristol have drawn some criticism since a Jan. 22 Post article described them as among those consulting on the inaugural address.
Liz Spayd, the paper's assistant managing editor for national news, said: "We stand by the story we wrote. We have a firsthand source who says it was crystal clear a primary purpose of the meeting was to seek advice on both Bush's inaugural and State of the Union speeches." There is nothing in the article I can find in which the Post itself supports Krauthammer's claims, they only report what he has said. In fact, as I've quoted above, they explicitly say they stand by their original article which initially reported that Krauthammer counseled Bush on his speech.
I understand if you disagree with the Post's position, but as far as I can tell you've attributed something to them that they didn't say. Could you please clarify? Is there another Post article you're referencing? Is there something in the Post article that we're interpreting differently, and if so could you tell me what and how you understand it? I don't think an edit war is useful but as far as I can tell, the Krauthammer page as it stands (the section we've been editing) is misleading. I'd really appreciate if you'd respond to me so we could discuss.
Thanks and take care, Langtry ( talk) 17:46, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
I removed the criticism section. The thing about Bush's speech was so unclear and the other point was very trivial. I wouldn't worry about a lack of criticism. His views are given, those who agree will like him, those who don't will dislike him. Steve Dufour ( talk) 08:07, 30 October 2008 (UTC)
That's a small sample. I would be happy to add more. Viriditas ( talk) 15:06, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
I realize that the biographies of living persons tread on thin ice at Wikipedia, but I find it curious that this article has no mention of the spinal cord injury Mr. Krauthammer suffered in a 1972 diving accident, one which rendered him quadriplegic. I worry that this is a deliberate omission – it is both relevant (as it relates to his own views on stem cell research) and it's fairly common knowledge (it was even mentioned on this talk page back in 2006). Can anyone explain why it's not in the article, and/or why it shouldn't be? — VoxLuna ☾ orbit land 17:33, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
I have not posted this material into the article because I cannot confirm it through refence sources I have available to me. I think the article might say more about K's "accident". As I recall (I lived in Boston at the time), K dived into the deep end of a swimming pool, I believe at the Holiday Inn on Blossom Street, near Mass. General Hospital. The builders had modified the pool design to permit an additional room to be built under the pool. As a result, the deep end was only about 6 feet deep. Apparently, they left in place a diving board intended for a 12 foot depth. It was reported that K was an experinced diver. When he jumped into the pool (apparently without looking, or at least not seeing) he hit his head on the bottom and broke his spine, resulting in severe paraplegia, though considerably short of Christopher Reeve's riding accident. ldmjr@comcast.net, 24 November 2006.
This page appears to be the subject of recurring anti-semitic vandalism. Can anything be done? Malvenue ( talk) 22:13, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
The criticism by FAIR appears to violate WP:BLP as it is not a neutral secondary source. "Criticism and praise of the subject should be represented if it is relevant to the subject's notability and can be sourced to reliable secondary sources, and so long as the material is written in a manner that does not overwhelm the article or appear to take sides; it needs to be presented responsibly, conservatively, and in a neutral, encyclopedic tone. Be careful not to give a disproportionate amount of space to particular viewpoints, to avoid the effect of representing a minority view as if it were the majority one. The views of a tiny minority have no place in the article. Care must be taken with article structure to ensure the overall presentation is broadly neutral; in particular, subsection headings should reflect important areas to the subject's notability." Malvenue ( talk) 01:12, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
He was obviously brought up Jewish, he went to Herzliyah High School. Why isn't this mentioned in the religion section? Someone's religious background is relevant to his current affiliation. If he is atheist I would think it would make a difference if he was brought up that way or decided on his own as an adult. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.12.68.174 ( talk) 12:56, 16 November 2009 (UTC)
Levineps feels that having this article in the categories of "Journalists" and "Columnists" is "overcategorization" stating that "a columnist is a journalist". I'm not sure what the point here is but that statement is overly broad and makes too many assumptions to justify unilateral removal of a category. Malvenue ( talk) 18:23, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
This goes to more our category setup than any strong opinions. Journalist is a catch-all term, and for such broad categories, we usually prefer to put into subcategories wherever possible (quite possibly more than one!). Mal, I think you and Levine got off on the wrong foot here; the move to a more specific category is well within standard practice, and not normally controversial. Best, Ray Talk 19:53, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
I wasn't really sure where to post this but I wanted to tell you guys you've done a great job with this article. I'm so used to seeing bias (POV?) in the articles I search on Wiki that I always check 'discussions' first. Today I read the article first and was really impressed with the fact that I could just get the raw info. I think it's good that much of the article were direct Krauthammer quotations. Keep up the good work, happy holidays! 174.51.97.16 ( talk) 21:48, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
The editors of this page provide one meaningless accolade after another and not a single criticism. The Politico praise is high comedy--one group of mediocre writers praising another one, and it shows up on Wikipedia as proof of his greatness.
Lame, truly lame.
Just as one example of where this article is lacking--as a reader, I would like to know why Krauthammer, who has never met a war he didn't like, failed to serve in Vietnam when he had ample opportunity prior to his accident. How many deferments did he have to receive? Did he have help with them? Without such perspective, this article is hopelessly biased, naive, and unprofessional.
Also, the textbook that (wow, gee, amazingly! and allegedly) had 12 references to Krauthammer in an earlier edition now only has 4 references to two articles in the 2007 edition. Also, since when is a pure count of the number of references a sign of significance? Perhaps the writers are redundant? Finally, by what measure is that particular textbook considered "the standard." Most adoptions in leading medical schools? Total number of sales? Some combination? Can that point be substantiated in any way?
Oh, just the tiniest bit of further research shows me that of the two articles "by" Krauthammer, he is one of two authors on one paper and one of five authors of the other. In neither case it it clear that he was the primary researcher. Indeed, the papers were published when he was a resident, so it is highly likely he would have been only been doing some work under the supervision of the primary researcher. Indeed, it's quite clear that in the case of the two-author article so fawningly referred to here, Krauthammer was the junior researcher. His "colleague," G. L. Klerman, was in fact the director of psychological research at Harvard Medical School and was 21 years' Krauthammer's senior.
So Krauthammer's academic research achievement could be much more accurately summarized as "he helped conduct some research." In other words, him and virtually every other medical student who studied in the past 75 years.
More rank amateurism.
—Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.48.196.34 ( talk) 19:53, 4 December 2009 (UTC)
a rather bizarre section. The author leaves us with little more than a sketchy piece on his life. Ie was he ever married? Is he a confirmed bachelor? His transition from serving liberal democrats to his obvious involvement in the Neoconservative movement. How did that come about. This article is more a Paean than a historical piece. Bereft of even marginal criticism. His blatant warmongering for example. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.202.33.130 ( talk) 18:44, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
I note that two years later, this is still the case. And no, I didn't post the original unsigned comment. -- Michael K Smith Talk 14:48, 11 March 2012 (UTC)
I added an image of Krauthammer; however, there may be an issue with the sourcing of it. Wrightchr ( talk) 03:59, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
I'm not sure about the source that cites that "Contrary to many conservatives, [Krauthammer] supported Israel's Gaza withdrawal as a step toward rationalizing the frontiers between Israel and a future Palestinian state," but I'm looking at an editorial right now where he states
There are probably a couple of available sources, but here's the one that I was reading: http://patriotpost.us/opinion/charles-krauthammer/2010/06/04/israel-disarmed/
It's probably worth considering an edit of the section that discusses his views on Israel. IRSpeshul ( talk) 21:56, 26 November 2010 (UTC)
The phrasing of the Mediaite piece sounds awkward. You don't want to have a sentence just about the founding of Mediaite by Abrams. Where is the Krauthammer? It should be CK-centric, something like "The media website Mediaite rated Krauthammer..." Also, as the Mediaite ratings vary over time, what is the point of running what Krauthammer's rating was at one particular moment? I'm sure the week after he was #7, he was #8, and probably #7 the following week. It seems really arbitrary and content-free. How about cutting the whole thing? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.122.33.110 ( talk) 09:02, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
Unable to make the correction myself, I am asking for help to edit Charles Krauthammer's page. I found the error in "Life and Career." In the first paragraph, a reference is made to his diving accident during medical school which is reference number 5. Reference number 5 is a reference to Wikipedia's Washington Post page ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Washington_Post) not to Mr. Krauthammer's diving accident. It appears to me that the correct reference should be to reference number 4, an interview with Brian Lamb. In that interview, Mr. Krauthammer discusses the accident. When I attempted the edit, I could not determine how to change the reference from a 5 to a 4. Aquapedia ( talk) 11:12, 24 February 2012 (UTC)
Another error is reference 29, his speech in 2006. He did not refer to the Arab Spring in this speech, the Arab Spring never even happened until 2010. If you read the text of the speech on reference number 29, he never uses the term "arab spring." Please correct this immediately. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.0.45.83 ( talk) 19:33, 22 December 2012 (UTC)
Is this really significant enough to warrant an entry? It seems a very petty and unimportant matter to be included in a online bio. 156.22.9.252 ( talk) 02:38, 12 April 2013 (UTC)
The apology was a personal one from Dan Pfeiffer, and Krauthammer specifically said in his demand for an apology that it come from Pfeiffer. It is not correct to say that the apology was issued by the white house, regardless of how loose you want to be with definitions. Ninahexan ( talk) 00:21, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
Additionally, this segment should include the fact that Krauthammer had inferred President Obama had willfully returned the bust as a slight to the British in keeping with the contrived narrative that the U.S. British relationship once enjoyed and entrusted during previous administrations is now exterminated under Obama.
shiznaw (

Reading all of the citations for this topic led me to wonder why this is here at all. Reading all the citations actually puts Krauthammer in a bad light.
This section itself seems to have a bet of a biased slant to it. It's making Krauthammer out as having been offended for having his "assertion"(Krauthammer own word) called a "ridiculous claim" and "patently false" and he seems to think that an assertion equals fact/truth when it is actually defined as a "declaration with no support or attempt at proof". Dan Pfeiffer apology seems to have been a personal apology for his having been personally rude and not for calling Krauthammers "assertion" a "ridiculous claim" and "patently false".
"White House" here is also misleading one to believe that the Executive Branch issued this apology when in fact it was Dan Pfeiiffer who issued this apology in privet and then used a White House web page to make his privet apology public and this is not the same thing as the Executive Branch giving an apology.
Krauthammers "assertion" was that the Obama administration was responsible for moving the Bust. Below is from one of the citations for this topic(my highlight);
"On January 20, 2009 -- Inauguration Day -- all of the art lent specifically for President Bush’s Oval Office was removed by the CURATOR'S OFFICE, as is common practice at the end of every presidency."
So? Krauthammers "assertion" was wrong AND the Executive Branch did not issue this apology. Again, Why is this here? If this is a highlight of Krauthammers life then maybe he should try another career. To mister Krauthammer I ask, If one says or does something wrong in a civil society is it not proper for one to man up and apology's ;-) ? 71.23.17.196 ( talk) 05:45, 13 June 2013 (UTC)
The new paragraph/section on his view of so-called 'Global Warming' is critical of Krauthammer as if it were 'settled science' when in fact, that is what he is talking about: that science is 'discovery'. The new paragraph does not reflect the points of his article and is undue weight to this article. Charles Edwin Shipp ( talk) 00:15, 25 February 2014 (UTC)
I think this section should be updated to include his more recent statement of early May: "It's always a result of what is ultimately what we're talking about here, human sin with pollution of carbon." and "It's the oldest superstition around. It was in the Old Testament, it's in the rain dance of Native Americans -- if you sin, the skies will not cooperate." These quotes more clearly demonstrate Dr. Krauthammer's feelings that global warming is an irrational cult-like belief. [1] LaurelhurstLiberal ( talk) 20:19, 17 May 2014 (UTC)
Dear Dr. Krauthammer:
I'd like to take a few minutes to let off some "steam" while typing what I feel is a huge scam (or devious scheme) that will be perpetuated at Pres. O'Bama's press conference this coming Wednesday, September 10, 2014. He will stand before the television cameras and take credit for playing a major role in the re-valuation of the Iraqui dinar as well as fixing the main leadership problems in Iraq. His alleged participation appears to have made Iraq into a puppet state for the U.S.A. This is in progress now along with the revaluation of 180+ countries who are supposedly going to be a part of this global re-valuation of each of their individual country's currency. I just find it absolutely incredible that something as big as this global occurrence is not being discussed on main stream national t.v. or any other media sources that the average person, such as myself, would actually know about. I'm guessing only the wealthy and upper-class or wealth management people have the exclusivity of inside information pertaining to this matter.
Because the re-valuation of the U.S. dollar as well as all the other nations involved have kept this information as a low-profile historical item, most people have absolutely no clue about the impact this will have and the potential of dramatic changes not only to our country but to the world economy. What I am particularly irked about and this is speculation on my part as he will be standing in front of the nation probably with a new found classification as a "billionaire", himself. Then he will "trumpet" his comments to reflect that he is our new found savior in that he has almost single-handedly worked out a deal on the Iraqui dinar re-valuation to pay back our national debt to the Chinese. He will make further comments as to how he literally saved our economy and oh, now he has enough money in the coffers to balance the national budget as well. He'll say, "See what a good guy I am"? I wonder if the "elite" in the Congress and Senate are involved with this as my "gut" tells me, the likes of Nancy Pelosi, the Clintons and a whole "gaggle" of our infamous D.C. players have their sticky fingers in this global "cookie jar" as well!
You sir, are a refreshing breath of fresh air with your candor and remarks that seek out those who want unadulterated truth. It doesn't have to be sugar-coated or lengthy discussions, just continue to provide the simple, as well as hard facts. You are a "light" in this world and I wanted to let you know that there are many of us who listen with all of our might, mind and heart because it gives us "HOPE". I just needed to vent and to assure you that I am a Patriot and it "galls" me when this president stands up with a litany of remarks that are lies, half-truths and shear non-sense.
I hope this reaches you before he speaks!
Sincerely,

As frequently mentioned in his columns, interviews, etc., it should be noted in this article that Krauthammer was originally a liberal (e.g., Jonathan Turley: "Yes, Charles Krauthammer was once a classic liberal"). He was a contributor to the (liberal) The New Republic, speechwriter for (Democrat) Walter Mondale, columnist for (left-leaning) Washington Post , etc. — 2606:A000:1126:4CA:0:98F2:CFF6:1782 ( talk) 20:57, 22 June 2018 (UTC)

I've noticed that editors are changing it back and forth, the part about Charles being paralyzed from the neck or the waist down. There needs to be a consensus about this fact so it can stay one or the other.
