MSNBC: Richard Clarke Writes Novel w/ Jabs at Bush WH

[Hissyspit]

There are interviewing him right now about his book "The Scorpion's Gate."

"Attempt to use fiction to put the reader in the near-future to see the issues we will face," he says. "If we don't change these paths we're going to face this future."

1. I read a review of this new book yesterday;

it's supposedly a very thinly veiled correlation to our world today and how this admin has botched everything. Sounds great!

2. That's pretty much what he said, but he emphasized that the characters

who criticize the Bush administration in the book are fictional characters.

Uh, huh. :-)
