And, being one of the leaders of the modern neoconservative movement, he would know.

It’s not an endorsement Barack Obama probably expected — or wanted — but Weekly Standard editor Bill Kristol gave the president high marks for his recent foreign policy gestures.

In his “You’ve come a long way, baby” post Monday night, Kristol praised Obama for his address to the American people about the action he took against Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi. On Wednesday’s “Red Eye” on the Fox News Channel, Kristol took things a step further and declared Obama “a born-again neo-con.”

Host Greg Gutfeld asked Kristol how he felt about Obama coming to him for help (reportedly the president had met with him and others prior to his Monday night address).

“He didn’t come to me for help, of course,” Kristol said. “I’m not going to acknowledge that. He came to me to make sure I was supporting his sound policies. Of course, since his sound policies are more like the policies people like me have been advocating for quite a while, I’m happy to support them. He’s a born-again neo-con.”

Throughout 2007 and 2008 in the race for the Democratic presidential nomination, Obama ran as the anti-war candidate. But Obama has taken on different stripes with this gesture, Kristol joked.

“What’s the joke – they told me if I voted for McCain, we’d be going to war in a third Muslim country?” Kristol said. “I voted for McCain and we’re doing it.”

President Obama is...

A politican.

When addressing a Union crowd he 'wears' union ideals.

When addressing a Liberal crowd he 'wears' Liberal ideals.

When addressing the Nation he 'wears' a 'mix' of statements 'written' for the teleprompter and designed to 'hit' the maximum number of 'groups'...

I wonder how he would do if someone simply turned off the teleprompter.

Uh... (purse lips, squint) uh... (look at other prompter - draw breath, purse lips) uh...

Bill Kristol thought Sarah Palin was a qualified candidate. Why pay any attention to his opinions?

Because he is HIGHLY influential in the neoconservative movement (I would argue even moreso than William Buckley ever was)-one of the most destructive movements ever in American politics. Understanding the neocons is critical to understanding the destructive path that the federal regime has been on for 100+ years.

Here's a vid of the Kristol discussing the subject of this thread:
