AP, you asked previously if I have read GWB's book. I have not.
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.

"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."

Re: Bin Laden DEAD!
Transcribing Bush's recordings would be a task.
No doubt there would be a few precular ... perculiar ... peckoolar ... strange words in there.

Re: Bin Laden DEAD!
Al Qaeda has confirmed Bin Laden's death
Let me say again, I think 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.

Re: Bin Laden DEAD!
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.
