Lieberman Honors Irving Kristol

09.18.09

WASHINGTON, D.C. –  Senator Joe Lieberman (ID-CT) today issued the following statement in memoriam of Irving Kristol:
 
“We have lost an intellectual giant.  Irving Kristol was an inventive entrepreneur of ideas who was boundless in his wit, creativity, and insight.  Irving understood that ideas have consequences - and his immense influence was the result of his unique ability to shape the American political landscape with the power of creative thought.  Irving was a genuine patriot who eloquently and forcefully defended America’s values and principles.  He leaves us with a great intellectual legacy that will continue to enrich our political dialogue for many years to come.  Hadassah’s and my condolences and prayers are with Irving’s wife, Gertrude, his children Bill and Elizabeth, and the entire Kristol family.”
