Bill Kristol prefers Susan Rice over John Kerry because he thinks Rice is more interventionist.

Be careful what you wish for. You just may be supporting more military involvement.

Note that Lieberman sounds positive towards her also.

1. The right wants someone who will support and promote war!

2. As was pointed2 yesterday, Dems are stampeded by dog whistles into circling our wagons around her.

Please, see, http://www.democraticunderground.com/10021890629

After all, she seems the quickest ticket to another "humanitarian intervention" in Syria, and then war with Iran. Just what the neocons called for, and with limited opposition from the easily divided and confused Left. Just what the chef ordered.

3. Excellent link....

Thanks.

Democrats need to think beyond Benghazi and circling the wagons and realize what Susan Rice would mean for foreign policy. How ironic would it be if we find ourselves in Neocon land with a Democratic President?

4. How ironic, yes.

Maybe not so accidental.

My impression of Rice, gained from reading about her, is that she's seen as being the WH advisor most closely aligned with Obama's own thinking on foreign policy. If that's true, we are in for one Hell of a Second Term.

5. Susan Rice is not a "neocon"

Patently absurd.

The RW is trying to mess with people's heads, and evidently it's working. The ridiculous theories being floated are pathetic.

6. I go with you on this one

You know they are more intent on creating chaos when they do things like this.

7. Are you reading up on her history and views?

[leveymg]

9. She is extremely hawkish on ME, interchangably so with some self-described neocons

such as her old protege at Brookings, Robert Kagan. Please, see, http://www.blogforarizona.com/blog/2012/11/sen-john-mccain-should-listen-to-his-fellow-neocon-robert-kagan-stop-scapegoating-susan-rice.html and read the links.

8. I'm inclined to agree with Bill Kristol on this one.

I would rather see Kerry than Rice.

10. don't believe it, necessarily

Is she really more interventionist than Kerry? The only person I've ever heard that from is from Bill Krsitol, who is not reliable as a sole source of information.
