I'll wait till October when it is on the dollar book table at Barnes and Noble, then I'll buy a copy and since I don't believe in burning books I'll use it to wipe my ass.

Her book will take readers behind the headlines to share the wrenching, yet profoundly inspiring story of how she put aside despair over her son's death, and took on the mission of speaking truth to power in the Congress, in front of the Pentagon and the White House, and on President George W. Bush's personal doorstep with her Camp Casey protest in Crawford Texas.

Funny how it doesn't mention that she even met the President. That would kinda dilute her "The President refuses to meet with me!" BS.

I could have sworn she already had a book out.

First time I ever heard of them. I looked them up, and they appear to be an imprint of Simon & Shuster, with a fair number of books about reincarnation and other new wave tripe.

Here's the web site:

Simon & Schuster is yet another in a long line of liberal publishers. The incestuous relationship with liberalism and publishing runs as deep as Hollywood.

Oh, and I can't resist quoting their explanation of their origins from the web page:

"With a growing Pocket Books hardcover list and the successful publishing of such books as Jennifer Lauck's Blackbird, Jennifer Weiner's Good In Bed, and Shanghai Baby by Wei Hui, came the founding, ... "

That was a very close-minded view, m-ak. :) I'm only kidding.

Thanks for driving home the good point.

Yeah, Atria is an imprint. There are a lot of those imprints running around. I could've told you right off the bat on that one.

Peter Borland says, "Out of unimaginable personal grief and tragedy, Cindy Sheehan emerged as one of the most influential figures of 2005 . . . "

I'm thinking many thousands of other people can imagine the "unimaginable".

What a doof.

James Risen's Book hit the big Barnes and Nobels #25 mark, Jimmy Carter's book runs a close #44 and Sheeham's book will get the #450 spot.

Who's Cindy Sheehan?

Is this someone I should Google? Or should I just move along because there's nothing to see here...

Better to take the money that would be spent on that garbage...and use it to help in the Freepathon...

We Freepers are the ones that can keep her from getting any more momentum than the MSM "gives" her.
