1. I salute him
and aim to buy the book to see for myself if the case can finally be made to those who refuse to understand the treason that Bush* and Co do for their own gain.

5. Bio
http://www.ronsuskind.com/about/biodetail.html

Ron Suskind, a Pulitzer-prize winning reporter, best-selling author, documentary filmmaker and monologist, is among America's most respected journalists.

Mr. Suskind’s book, "A Hope in the Unseen" (Random House, 1998), follows the three-year journey of a prickly, religious honor student from a blighted Washington, DC high school to the end of his freshman year at Brown University. Launched by a series Mr. Suskind wrote for the Wall Street Journal that won him the 1995 Pulitzer-Prize for Feature Writing, "Hope" has become one of the most acclaimed books of last decade, prompting national discussions on race and class, the role of faith in the American Dream and how shared understanding can bridge divides.

Mr. Suskind writes for several national magazines, including Esquire, where he is the magazine's national correspondent, and The New York Times Magazine. He is also one of the prize-winning authors whose contributions comprise "Profiles in Courage for Our Times" (Hyperion, 2002), a New York Times bestseller edited by Caroline Kennedy. Mr. Suskind is currently working on his next book, a narrative for Simon & Schuster about how residents of a remote Pacific island, isolated for much of the past two centuries, are reinterpreting modern life.

Mr. Suskind's major television work over the past year has been for Life360, the first original series produced by PBS in nearly a decade, where he's been a regular essayist. Along with contributors like ABC's Robert Krulwich, performance artist Anna Deavere Smith and comedian Jake Johannsen, Mr. Suskind has helped created new narrative formats for national television. He has also appeared on ABC's Nightline with Ted Koppel, where he's acted as a correspondent on issues of education and race.

7. Yes. Right now he has the 19000 documents.....
Which is about 19,000 more than CNN and FOX-TV....just to keep it in perspective. He has the Bushies by the balls and they're trying not to grimace.
