OMG! Will Pitt is a shill for al -Qaeda!
Another freeper reviews a book he hasn't read:


12 of 24 people found the following review helpful:
Tedious Tome, December 22, 2006
Reviewer: bcamp "b" (houston, TX) - See all my reviews
This book could not be more wearisome and erroneous. Rather than attempting a chapter by chapter refutation of this leftist assault on America masquerading as non-fiction, let me just suffice this review with the fact that Mr. Pitt cherry picks his facts to suit his conclusions. He makes leaps of logic that only a shill for al Qeada could find their way through.

On the positive, Mr Pitt has a gift for prose, but for my personal taste it is long winded. The book could be made significantly more readable by shortening it to a pamphlet.

2. Ok lemme see if I have this straight...
Edited on Wed Dec-27-06 05:04 PM by jgraz
He's a gay, bi-sexual, communist, al Qaeda shill who's secretly sleeping with Cindy Sheehan?

Damn, that's quite a resume. :rofl:

3. "significantly more readable by shortening it to a pamphlet"
I'm surprised he didn't also suggest big pictures in the pamphlet -- even fewer words to have to sound out! :rofl:

4. I love how Repubs still think that the anti-war crowd are "the real liars"
Never mind the fact that Pitt & the rest of us has been right all along about almost everything- while the Bushbots were dead wrong about literally everything themselves.

6. I'd say that's about the best endorsement you could get Pitt
considering the source. If you're still pissing off the freepers you must be doing something right.

7. Muqtada al pitt. Is will sunni or shia? Lets ask bush or bcamp.
Does the book have pictures in it? Wow all those liberals cherry picking facts. Cherry picking facts?? As opposed to cherry picking the limbaugh transrcript. Me thinks bcamp is beyond.

Shortened to a pamphlet? Cliff notes version? Is bcamp trying to drum up business for will in the conservative community?

8. Too many reviews get deleted
And it's not even merely the reviews that either taunt or support the author/message without discussing the book.

There were numerous reviews that I saw where people who (seemingly) had read the book and reviewed it. Some positively, some negatively, but they at least stuck to the book and its merits, and they were all deleted.

It seems like if you disagree with a review, you can flag it as inappropriate and it gets deleted, I'm not a fan of that

23. Code.
He is called "Red" for othert reasons, I suspect. He looks a lot like Karl Marx. I think Bigger Thomas had read some of Mr. Pitt's pamplets, and was driven to murder.

Plus, he smokes cigarettes.

14. Pamphlet? If Will really wants to market it to Freepers, he can
always consider making a coloring book version...

16. A Freeper who can spell?
And use words like "refutation" and "masquerading"... not to mention "wearisome" and "erroneous"!!!



Something is fishy here... perhaps Will is bcamp and this is all for the sake of controversy selling. It makes more sense than a literate Freeper with a multisyllabic vocabulary!!

:p

Does anyone know where he sits at the Patriot's games

18. They are just immature and ignorant.
They have posted tons of negative reviews over at Amazon for Will's book. Some of them are so nasty, I can't believe they are allowed to remain. Typical behavior from the repukes. Nothing surprising there. They are jealous of anyone with talent and lash out accordingly. Will knows how wonderful he can write and so do we. They can not even string together a proper sentence without committing fourteen grammatical errors and they definitely can not read anything more difficult than a comic strip. They can't handle the truth.

20. "Let me just suffice this review..."
They generally do better when they stick with the little words. Once again I ask the question, "Is our FReepers learning?" :P

It really amazes me that there are people who consider this kind of stuff a worthy use of time. Well, then again, it beats doing all that 10th grade geometry homework.

Thanks, Freeps. This is called "buzz." My publisher is absolutely thrilled the Amazon page is getting all this traffic and attention. It really does help, especially the vile stuff you all write. Please keep it up. You're truly being a big help, and I'd love to buy you a thank-you beer...in a few years, when you turn 21...if your mom lets you break curfew.

(for those who are wondering, I'm serious about the "buzz" thing...Los Freepos are doing their unwitting part to make sure my royalty checks from this book have lots of zeros after the commas)

(hee hee hee)

27. I think you have hit a "Trifecta"!
He's lesbian.
He sleeps with Cindy Sheehan.
He shills for Al Quaida.

I'm heading over to that site to knock out a really CONTROVERSIAL review!

31. See bush was right
We'll soon be reduced to a bunch of commas. Fool me twice, I'll trip three times, but don't fool me and I'll get confused. I think I'll stay the horse.

28. Now, that's odd -
My hubby, "wayuphere" reviewed the book this am with glowing results. Not posted yet, I guess........

Will al-Pitt, eh? Good book, Mr. subversive! Made a great gift this Christmas, too, along with Farenheit 911 for those who hadn't seen it in my crowd.

29. The review is now posted on Amazon!
I just looked and it is there right up at the top. I posted one a few hours ago, but it is not there yet. I loved the book so much. I guess the reviews take a while to get posted.
