14. Good point n/t

4. Bush couldn't write a book

As Cenk so deftly pointed out, he couldn't read it if he did.

5. Wouldn't it be the first book in history where the Cliff's Notes were longer than the book?

:silly:

6. I'd be happy...

...if I thought he could READ a book.

7. I'd actually be fascinated to read his book.

But only if he writes it himself.

Since publishers aren't exactly clamoring for a polished turd from whatever hacky ghostwriters he's hire, he should promise to give them a book written entirely by him. I mean, no ghostwriters at all.

Heck, go a step further and vow to not even expose it to any editors (or spell-checkers) at all before publishing, ensuring it is totally unfiltered and unpolished.

Maybe you print the whole book in Bush's own handwriting (like those Kurt Cobain journals that got released a few years back). The grammatical and logical errors would turn it into a nice Easter Egg hunt for "Bushisms."

Yeah, so I'd say it'd be interesting to read an unfiltered slab of text authored by this guy.

I imagine it would start out as a grand meandering memoir. Then, probably around Chapter 4, he'd get bored and suddenly veer off into a fictional political espionage thriller. Then he'd run out of steam and give up on using words entirely. I imagine he'd turn to free-hand drawings at that point. Nothing too fancy. You know, cubes and stars. And boobs.

8. While he is in jail he can do it

10. Write one??? I'm not even sure he can read one

[newmac]

11. We could proclaim the day peanut brain leaves office; a National Holiday

Or we could name a "light" beer after him; or a toilet bowl cleaner; or an outhouse. Or would that be too big to hold his presidential library?

[ejbr]

12. Only if they gave it away...

I could use it for toilet paper.

13. Stupid publishers...........

they didn't realize it was to be a COLORING BOOK!!!
