OK there may have already been a diary of this with the video clip, but I cannot find it if there was. Kristol's comments have become famous today and for good reason.
Bill Kristol said yesterday on FOX News Sunday that President Bush is more likely to attack Iran if he believes Sen. Barack Obama is likely to be elected President. He added that if McCain were elected Bush might feel that it would be "more appropriate" to let him make his own decision as commander in chief.
Not only does this reinforce the notion that McCain and Bush are joined at the hip when it comes to middle east foreign policy, but it also suggests that military decisions by the Bush admin. might be influenced by political poll numbers! That is absolutely unbelievable... the tone with which Kristol says "its difficult to base... on guesses about poll numbers" is astonishing to me and from the looks of even others like Hume on the panel I may not be alone.
