It just would have put America in more danger to release the picture. I think we are already at great risk. If terrorist dont get revenge after we killed Bin Laden they look pretty weak.
"the President made the right call not releasing the photograph."
Absolutely. And the best part about that was Senator Clown ... er, Brown ended up looking like a moron.
Al Qaeda has confirmed Bin Laden's death
Let me say again, I think the President made the right call not releasing the photograph.

No doubt there would be a few precular ... perculiar ... peckoolar ... strange words in there.

"However the guy cant talk or read (I guess) so I dont know how he can write."
That was just a supposition on my part, AP. I don't know that Bush can't read. He got through Yale and Harvard B school after all. But it's common knowledge that his staffers said he didn't like to read, and I'm just guessing he's masking a learning disability like dyslexia.
As far as his authorship goes, I'm almost certain Bush - like almost every other autobiographer - didn't sit down in front of his PC or Macbook or whatever and start typing out the story of his Presidency. What's more likely is he recorded everything orally and some lackey transcribed everything. It's probably just as well. Bush's spellchecker would never have made it past "newcular."

I would like to read it just because it might bring to light some information on a time frame that I think will effect America for years and years to come. However the guy cant talk or read (I guess) so I dont know how he can write. I doubt th book is much more te a paycheck with his name on it.
I have a buddy who thinks GWB shits gold. I was going o bum the book off him but I doubt he has the motivation to buy or read it.

I don't know where the 2012 RNC is going to be held, but it would have to be a big room to fit those two egos.
Without a doubt. I think the billing would have to be like they do it when a movie has two stars:
Trump
Palin
...and a cast of BILLIONS!

It's way too early to speculate about anything beyond who will start Game 1 of the NLDS for the Reds. Though I did see a "Trump for President" lawn sign the other day.
