At the time, Peretz said Kelly was "an obsessive right-winger," and contended that "Michael Kelly wouldn't recognize a big idea if it hit him in the face."

Kelly felt that Clinton had betrayed the public trust and damaged the presidency’s prestige by not only lying about his affair with Monica Lewinsky – but by calculating that he could play a game of moral brinksmanship against those bringing charges and deceive the nation into believing his version of truth.
Kelly could be counted on to be creative, ferocious, chaotic, brilliant; often tough and searing in his own commentary but intellectually honest and open to a variety of divergent views.
Kelly was beyond the shallow and predictable grooves of the political right, or left.

Unfortunately, so does madness." People like Fletcher, Kelly determined, "are undone by an excess of expectation and a dearth of imagination, by the failure of their country to live up to itself, and by their own failure to explain how this can have happened." Strange how those words might apply to Kelly himself now.

 The Millions (A Blog About Books): The Road To Baghdad: Remembering Michael Kelly
Twelve years before he left home for the last time, Michael Kelly, who was raised on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C. (his parents and mine remain close friends and neighbors), wrote the definitive account of the Gulf War, the first Iraq War, also known as Operation Desert Storm.
Kelly's engaging, funny, conversational writing, his man-on-the-street (of Baghdad, of Amman, Tel Aviv, Cairo, Dhahran, Kuwait City) perspective, assisted by his broad but honest impressions of some of the maddeningly complex political relationships among Middle Eastern states, regions, and peoples (of which there are a few), these qualities add much to Martyr's Day.
Kelly made that happen for me and I wish he were still around, serving up his always unique take on the world before him.

Kelly admits he made the Democratic fundraising brouhaha a cause, but says he believed Peretz had given him the editorial freedom to write whatever he wanted.
Kelly says Peretz wrote an unsigned Notebook item indicating the new wave of Gore stories was `` `nonsense and should not be paid attention to.' I told Marty I had a problem with it and sent a three-page memo saying I didn't want to run it, that I didn't think it was trueÉ.
Kelly, too, says he received assurances that he would be able to make decisions without being second-guessed.
