What I said then was that Kristol was pushing war with Iraq because he didn't think that Bush would do it, especially after he went to the UN. Bill still misreads the President.
Once we went in, he had no choice but to applaud, given the position he staked out. Now he sees his opportiunity to cause trouble and his usual pattern of behavior is resurfacing. He despises Bush, always has, always will. I don't think it is because he supported McCain. I think he supported McCain because he despises Bush.
Good reply, Marple.
When all is said and done, I would not be surprised if a young George W. and an even younger Bill Kristol had a bad run-in at the White House back in Bush I's administration. GW was dad's enforcer. Wouldn't be surprised if he confronted Bill about something embarrassing.
Bill is doing a bit of ass covering so he can maintain some sort of "independence" from Bush's administration. So, he jumps on the press bandwagon about the WMD. This should surprise no one.
Be Seeing You,
