Anyone read these books on the B*u*sh Dynasty?
Worse than Watergate: The secret Presidency of George W. Bush
By John W. Dean

American Dynasty: Aristocracy, Fortune and the Politics of Deceipt in the House of Bush
By Kevin Philips

Do you think it would help to get the word out to the general masses about books such as these?

1. read them both
but doubt you could get wingers to read them. Worse than watergate was really frightening. When he said that if Bush was assasinated, Cheney's heart is so bad he'd probably have a heart attack...then we'd have Hastert become President...but no...Delay would push him out of the way. I had nightmares for weeks.

3. Nightmares for weeks? That bad.
Ever since Nov 2nd, I feel the world has changed and it's a nightmare. Never before have I been so frightened for our country and our world with dubya$$ as our president.

5. Actually, I'd like DeLay in the top spot so that people could see
the pure EVIL that is the GOP.

When they see the naked truth, they may change their minds. And if they don't, then there was no convincing them anyway.

6. I read Dean's book.

Good read. Disturbing, to put it mildly.

7. I'm reading American Dynasty now...
They are a useless bunch.

And to think they are running this country, makes me weep!

8. Read Dynasty and Wealth and Democracy -
Both are required reading from a more or less traditional economic conservative. Wealth and Democracy was chilling. Most of the facts of American Dynasty are now well documented in the Blogosphere, but Phillips was well ahead of the curve. I hope we see more from him.
