Do you think someone should read this to junior? Probably not, junior is allergic to the truth.

excerpt---------
"What is even more significant in terms of news value are those highly-placed, influential Republicans who have abandoned Bush&Co. When William F. Buckley, the founding editor of National Review, the bible of rockhard conservatism, can denounce Bush's Iraq adventure and competence in print, you know a turning point has been reached on the right.
So many diplomats, retired generals, corporate leaders, ex-officials in the Reagan and Bush 1 administrations likewise have gone public in recent weeks with their reservations about Bush&Co. It's clear these elite Republicans believe that their financial and political interests are jeopardized by the radical, bumbling crew currently in charge, and that they, and the country as a whole, will be better served by getting those guys out of the White House, even if it means putting a more centrist candidate like Kerry into power.
Karl Rove and his minions are not stupid. They see what is happening across the country, the steady erosion of fed-up conservatives from the Bush camp, the loss of public support for the war, the lackluster job situation, the poll numbers showing Kerry slowly pulling ahead in one toss-up state after another. They know their time in power could be limited, and that criminal indictments may well follow their defeat."
