Kristol reassures necons: ‘We’re staying with the surge.’

From Thinkprogress:

Today on The Chris Matthews Show, BBC correspondent Katty Kay reported:

Hawks have been calling the White House all week saying: “We hope you’re not going to wobble on Iraq.” And I understand they’ve been getting reassurance from the White House: “No, the policy is not changing.” Bill Kristol wrote a very condemning article saying that the White House must not change policy, must stick with the surge. The White House called back, said: “Why are you giving us such a hit; we’re staying with the surge.”
