Arnaud de Borchgrave Plans to Vote for Kerry

For those not familiar with him, here is a brief bio. You can't get any more conservative than this guy.

Even so, he sees through the Iraq lies--here is a recent editorial comparing the WMD excuse to the Tonkin Gulf Resolution.

Anyway, here's what Page Six, the Murdoch-owned New York Post's gossip column, has to say about him:

ADD Arnaud de Borchgrave to the list of conservative Republicans who are disaffected with President Bush. "I'll probably vote Democratic for the first time in 40 years," the aristocratic journalist confided, citing Bush policies in Iraq and Israel.

When Bush is losing archconservatives like de Borchgrave, something serious is afoot.

1. The Moonie machine is turning against Shrub?

I'd like to hear Helen Thomas's thoughts on this!

2. Pat Buchanan has been outspoken against aWol*s policies ....

for over a year now. He seems to be pinning all the blame on the neo-cons and gives shrub* a pass. Always mentions what a nice guy he is. I bet he still votes for him even though he hates his policies.. :crazy:

4. De Borchgrave is said to be a CIA asset.

He helped disseminate some of the most ludicrous and since discredited propaganda on the eve of the invasion.

Looks like he's joining the spooks' rebellion.
