But Jason Recher, who served as special assistant to President Bush and as a traveling aide to Palin during the campaign, said the former President was well aware of Palin — especially since the two met in person in Alaska just three weeks before Palin was added to the Republican ticket.

For example, he writes that President Bush didn’t know who Sarah Palin was.

Recher said. "Nobody knows who he is. When people heard he was writing a book the most common reaction has been, 'Who?'"

Bet the left knows exactly who he is.

You say you know Bush personally? You were a member of his inner circle, perhaps? If so, can you comment on the relationship Cheney and Bush had during the second term and were they really at odds over what to do about Iran?

Lattimer’s book should be sold in the “Fiction” section at bookstores.
