Sheppard Smith clashes with Kristol on the War: it’s “repulsive” that Bush won’t do anything till after the election in Iraq.

And so it comes to this.

We now have the extraordinary sight of William Kristol being berated on Fox News, of all places, for admitting that more troops are needed in Iraq but that the President can't send them until after the November mid-terms.

The interviewer says that if he was the father of a child killed in Iraq between now and November he would be "raising Holy Hell". At this point Kristol seems to realise the hole he has dug for himself and stars backpedalling furiously.

But it's quite something to see Faux News admitting that the war in Iraq "isn't working".
