Disclaimer: No copy of the book was purchased in order to write this review. I read it in the store :-)

[ladyinred]

LOL! I would be afraid even touching it would give me Cooties!

[dead]

I had a day much like yours. I went to the hardware store and drove ten-penny nails into my forehead for a half hour.

[daviddennis]

I thought a few of you might enjoy my latest literary effort. Feel free to ping anyone else you think might like it!

I'm on FR when I'm going through an insomniac stage. ;-)

Thank you. I will immediately throw out my sleeping pills and purchase a copy. By the way, the interview with Barbara Walters last night was a snorer, too. David Brinkley said it first: "Clinton was, is and always will be a bore." You can say the same for his doormat wife.

[tuckrdout]

oh WHY do you talk about her? What does she have to offer this country? I am completely bored with this woman. Think she is irrelevent, and wish everyone would stop talking about this wretched drivel she has printed!

[Sparta]

It's crap, just like the author.

[Republican Wildcat]

LOL!

You can say the same for his doormat wife.

--------------------

I wouldn't consider her a doormat, except in the fictional accounts that have been written. She has got nearly everything she wanted.

I read it in the store too. Egad, how could any one write like that is beyond me. More to the point, a woman who stays with a serial adulterer needs her head checked. Hillary Clinton is not your normal American woman, wife, and mother.

ROFL

I was wondering if you wasted money on this toilet paper, good thing you didn't. What a waste of money.

[RLK]

Egad, how could any one write like that is beyond me.

-------------------

One writer didn't. It took a crew of writers to do it.

Let me put it this way. I wrote this review at 10:30 precisely. By 10:36 I had five responses excluding those written by me.

I wrote it because I thought people would be curious about the book, and not want to go through the tiresome effort of reading it themselves. So I made the sacrifice of spending 20-odd minutes checking it out. That I was not surprised would be an understatement. Well, I was a bit surprised since I was really expecting more from a supposedly professional publishing establishment, a supposedly brilliant woman, and a $2.6 million advance. But I wasn't that surprised - what could she do, tell the truth?

I always knew my beloved husband was a liar and an adulterer, but he had that amazing animal magnetism, and I really dug that as a more intellectual type. And he had such incredible people skills, he could make anyone think he cared!

And if he hadn't been so careless, he could have had all the bimbos he wanted and still kept my loyalty. But that (deleted) (deleted) guy that I adore just couldn't resist taking (deleted) risks .....

(The preceeding is as close to her real feelings as I can tell. Doesn't paint a pretty picture, does it?)

I also wrote a slightly modified version of this review for Amazon. I just hope they print it.

One reason she does stay relevent is that The Economist has an editorial this week saying she could win the Presidency in 2008. I have my doubts, but serious people are not dismissing her candidacy.

Uh huh. It was written by a village of ghost-writers. LOL!!!

[Dan from Michigan]

You took one for the team there. Thanks for the review, and I hope you hit the showers afterward.

[goldstategop]

Hillary says she won't run but when have you ever known the Clintons to tell the truth and nothing but the truth? 'Nuff said.

[TaRaRaBoomDeAyGoreLostToday!]

For the movie jackass it would be a good skit to go in a bookstore and pick this book up then walk to a toilet take a dump and use the book for what it is worth-toilet paper.

Must be why Hitlery's book sales are down

[daviddennis]

Hillary Clinton is pure ambition. She's about as lousy a wife and mother as Bill is a lousy husband and father.

I think she knew what she was getting into from the start ... but she knew riding him to power was the one way she could achieve her ambition.

I think the blame for the nature of their relationship is split evenly between them both.
