1. NICE!!! And I have two of the three already....

I was a little dubious about Woodward's newest effort, especially after his last fawning tome about *....but it sounds as though old Bobbie-boy did the switcheroo on shrubbie and lulled them into a false sense of security...took good notes and NAILED THEM ALL...

2. Hannity's book ranks 94....ha ha ha ha

[RebelOne]

[peekaloo]

Welcome to DU! :hi:

[Juansmith]

[BlueEyedSon]

[NMDemDist2]

6. and O'neill and Franken still in the top 25 eom

[Mz Pip]

7. I have all 3!!!!!!!!

The Dean book if frightening. The secrecy of this administration is terrifying.

MzPip
:dem:

[0007]

28. Have you read all three?

Would you mind telling us which is best? I'm read Clarke book and find it extremely interesting. I might buy Dean's book if 'ya tell me its better than Clarke's.

[Mz Pip]

29. Dean's book

is the scariest. I haven't finished it but what I've read is pretty chilling. He goes into a lot of Bush and Cheney's past history.Cheney, in particular is one creepy guy.

MzPip
:dem:

[0007]

32. I'll buy Dean's book today,

thanks for the information

[Misunderestimator]

31. Dean's book is better than Clarke's

Well, take that with a grain of salt. They are wildly different and both worth reading. I will say that I absolutely could not put Dean's book down, while I am still about halfway through Clarke's. Dean's is better written IMO.

[GreenPartyVoter]

10. Amazon is not the list to go by, NYT is.

[CompassionateLiberal]

11. "How to Loose Weight While Hating Bush"

Here's an idea that will sell millions of units.

[CompassionateLiberal]

12. "How to Lose Weight While Hating Bush"

Here's an idea that will sell millions of units.

[Generator]

14. Pure genius that one CompLiberal

LOL!

[wryter2000]

15. Welcome to DU

:hi: CompassionateLiberal. Are you in the book biz? Those are the only folk I ever hear refer to books as "units."

[Athletic Grrl]

30. Shoot, I'd buy that even if I were anorexic

:yourock:

[LynneSin]

16. Think we can convert the South Beach authors to our team

I like the NYTimes list - they put all those self help books in their own category

[Misunderestimator]

17. Just read "Worse than Watergate" in one sitting

Got it from Amazon this week and read it cover to cover on Sunday. (And what an easy read... even the footnotes were interesting.) It should be required reading in future years for this shameful era in our history. Just ordered the Woodward book a few minutes ago, so now I too have all three :)

[rucky]

sounds like a VLWC to me :)

20. Ahhhh... there is hope

:-)

[CompassionateLiberal]

22. This is Encouraging, but ...

Only problem is that I'm not sure any of this will effect the outcome in November, simply because I'm not many in the GOP base ... um ... reads books.

[BlueEyedSon]

23. now #5 has moved up above #4

Yay John Dean!

[AP]

24. Why can't Democrats get books critical of Bush in the top 5?

Clarke, Woodward and Dean -- all three have been very close to Republican presidents.

[yella_dawg]
