    Just Business

    Nicely done, as usual.

    "Conservatives" betray their corporate core when they turn on Bush the way they've turned on everything else that reveals the bankruptcy of their ideas; that's the business model: you start with the answer and devise a campaign to achieve it.

    Anything that contradicts the "answer"--even reality--is Wrong, and if you don't like it you can go work somewhere else. Bush will find that even the CEO is not above this mechanism.
