I'm so bummed about Bush At War. I just bought it - reluctantly - and have just started reading it. I wasn't going to buy it but so many recommended it on FR that I thought I would give it a try. Sounds like this is one of those books that only one of us should have bought and then passed it around!

As for George and Laura, I thought it was just a rehash of much that has already been written about both of them. I didn't find the stuff about W too insulting - sounds to me like he was just a bit of a party boy who enjoyed having fun with his friends, etc. The book wasn't, as is the case with many books, what it portended to be though and I was disappointed in that it didn't really have anything new in it.

I'm still going to read Bush at War and will give my take on it when done but I have a feeling it will be pretty similiar to both of yours!

Happy Birthday Pippin - a day late.

I wasn't on the Dose last night. We went and saw STOMP in the city. It was great. It was in a small theatre - about 300 people and our seats were excellent. The only downer was this woman two rows behind us who felt compelled to whup and howler throughout the whole thing. She was really obnoxious. I don't think there wasn't a person in the theatre who didn't want to ring her neck or at least muzzle her mouth! Errrrr.

Anyway, it's a great show.

Well, my bottom line about Bush at War is that it's being promoted because it's the work of a famous liberal, and regardless of the details, it shows Bush to be what he really is...... a strong, decisive leader who cares deeply about the American people and the people of Afghanistan.

No matter what we 'in the know' folks think, it's not going to hurt the President's image in the public eye.

I'm still glad I bought it, and have it as a matter of record.
