"But nobody reads. Don't believe people read in this country. There will be a few professors who will read the record ... the public will read very little".

If they did, we would not have George Bush as president.

Why should the country read when 1/2 the country is told everything written is a pack of lies?
What the country should do is get rid of the Karl Rove-James Carvelle-Lee Atwater-Roger Stone type of people ...Toss them all overboard and stop the dirt, especially when it is one sided, if the other side won't roll in the mud with them -------------------- Bobby dreamed things that never were and say "Why not?" TEDDY made those dreams come alive and be a reality.
