Publishers not interested in producing Bush’s memoir
from ThinkProgress:



Publishers not interested in producing Bush’s memoir.»

When George W. Bush leaves office in January, he’s likely to join other past presidents and write a memoir. However, publishers aren’t that interested in producing something from history’s most unpopular president at this point and are suggesting that he “take time.” Even Marji Ross of the conservative Regnery Publishing said, “Certainly the longer he waits, the better.” President Clinton received $15 million for his autobiography, “My Life,” although few expect Bush will command the same sum.

2. Ah, I don't know. Didn't Goebbels diaries do pretty well? Or Speer? They were war criminals, too.
:shrug:

That being the case, there's hope for W.'s ghost-written memoirs.

4. Exactly. It's not like there could be anything meaningful or insightful.
It couldn't be anything other than a whitewash of a train wreck, at best.
