Yes...But...What I believe is incredibly significant about the Globe
piece is WHO wrote it - and included his CORPORATE identification...and
who actually starts out his piece by writing...
"FOR TWO GUYS about the same age, George W. Bush and I do not have much
in common."

I'm sorry, but as someone who puts bread on the table doing PR for
corps, I know that a major corp CEO does not ordinarily write that about
a sitting President. Particularly if the CEO is head of a financial
corp.....to say nothing of everything else he wrote....

I'm not looking at the piece, btw, so much as a commentary on the war as
a commentary on what's happening to Bush's chances to be re-elected.
