 Kristol has not always fallen in line behind the Bush administration, and has on occasion criticized Bush for not being conservative enough. In [[2004]], he wrote an op-ed strongly criticizing [[Secretary of Defense]] [[Donald Rumsfeld]].<ref>William Kristol [http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A132-2004Dec14.html The Defense Secretary We Have] Washington Post, Wednesday, December 15, 2004; Page A33, accessed 17 march 2009</ref> He was also the first of many conservatives to publicly oppose Bush's second U.S. Supreme Court nominee, [[Harriet Miers]]. He said of Miers: "I'm disappointed, depressed, and demoralized. [...] It is very hard to avoid the conclusion that President Bush flinched from a fight on constitutional philosophy. Miers is undoubtedly a decent and competent person. But her selection will unavoidably be judged as reflecting a combination of [[cronyism]] and capitulation on the part of the president."

 Kristol was one of the signatories to the January 26, 1998, PNAC letter<ref> [http://www.newamericancentury.org/iraqclintonletter.htm Letter to President William Jefferson Clinton] from PNAC, January 26, 1998.</ref> sent to President [[Bill Clinton]] urging him "to seize that opportunity" in his upcoming State of the Union "to enunciate a new strategy that would secure the interests of the U.S. and our friends and allies around the world. That strategy should aim, above all, at the removal of [[Saddam Hussein]]'s regime from power."
