Kristol opposes the President when he truly disagrees with him. He may well dislike the President. But Kristol is not going to use the Miers opportunity to bring down the Bush administration at the cost of the party and principles he believes in, which was the ludicrous charges made on this thread.

Kristol is ambitious and would undermine the president if it would get him more facetime on FNC or a top position in a McCain administration. It's not that he doesn't have principles and an ideology -- he does -- but he cares a great deal more about his own professional success.

"but he cares a great deal more about his own professional success."

Enough to bring down the president, the Republican Party, and the SC Court?

I'm sorry I just don't see it.
