Ambiguity over "Bumper Sticker" philosophy about America! O'Neil!
His book sounds like a total BLOCKBUSTER! Just heard Terry Gross on "Fresh Air" with Suskind/O'Neill and gotta say that if the cables trash him and Suskind then they are crazy to do it.

He's trying to get our "Economic Situation" and Shrubs (Incurious Or DUMBYA behavior out there!) O'Neill says the "American People are smarter than given credit for...they can understand this..."

WAR and TAX CUTS WRONG!

Yeah...we can understand this! Buy the book! I'm out tonight at my bookstores to try to find it!

3. One problem is that sane and intelligent people are buying the book
but we may be outnumbered by the dummies for bush who refuse to buy it (because they think it's BS), and still plan to vote for him because they like his "personal qualities."

Oh, well, we'll keep trying to get through their thick skulls. Maybe someday a fact or two will actually penetrate through the brainwashing.

4. Our local Barnes & Noble is not carrying it except for special order...
It makes it sooo much easier for the FBI to trace those "traitors" who have purchased a copy if the names, phone numbers, and addresses are easily available... :eyes:

8. Are you serious? I got mine from our local B&N yesterday. BTW,
Our local channel wouldn't air the night Sharpton hosted SNL for fear it would violate "equal time" rule. Censorship one way or the other.

5. Interview confirms that O'Neill is an infuriating idiot
I'm glad to know I was right about O'Neill back when he was Treasury Secretary. He was a doofus.

I'm glad Suskind put out the book. I'm glad Suskind, at least, knows what the implications of O'Neill's testimony are.

But O'Neill sure sounds like a good little nazi on this interview.
