Did everyone get their Christmas card (via e-mail) from President Bush and Laura?! It is beautiful, just beautiful!

I didn’t get one, but then President Bush does not have my email address

That was fast: BUSH MEMOIR SPEEDS PAST 2 MILLION SALES LEVEL

Was only the other day when I posted that even if his current sales rate of over 41,600 books a day was cut in half, he'd still sell 2 mil before the book was out two months. So happy to see his sales rate has continued so strong it pushed him over that milestone in about 45 days instead of 60. :)

Take that all you Bush haters out there on the Right and the Left. The "cowboy" from Texas has the last laugh.

FAST! You betcha. I must say, I love the audio best! Of course, I had to get the hardcover too, but I'm telling you all, if you want a wonderful treat, get the audio.

I am posting this in link form only, due to the site, but please take a look: Where our last 4 presidents have spent CHRISTmas!. VERY TELLING.

Deb, I like this from the article you linked:

A spokesman for Crown called the performance remarkable, saying he could not immediately think of any other hardcover nonfiction books in 2010 that had sold over 1 million copies.

Sales are inevitably going to slow down eventually, but if it keeps selling at anything close to this pace, it will reach 3 million sold in another couple of months or so. That's really quite astonishing considering it's a rare nonfiction book that sells even close to 1 million total for its entire run. :)

In a fair world where big prizes are not doled out by Leftists, this book would win a Pulitzer, but I'm not holding my breath.

Of course, in a fair world where big prizes are not doled out by Leftists, George W. Bush would have justly won the Nobel Peace Prize. Look at Iraq today. They just formed a government, with their Prime Minister managing to bring all the different factions into his cabinet. They are making real progress on getting their oil production up to nearly the levels of Saudi Arabia.
