Isn't it interesting that all the right wingers go to Stewart and Colbert to promote |
|
their books?
O'Reily on the Daily Show and Stephen Moore on Colbert.
Of course, these are the only shows where one can find someone who actually reads books.

1. I'll probably read O'Reily's book to learn the thoughts of the enemy. |
|
Of course, I'll get it from the library, thus defeating the purpose of the book tour.

If I want a book, I certainly won't look for one written by a media personality.

4. They are hoping that Stewart and Colbert will give them credibility. |

6. Right. O'Reily had to sit through clips from Fox, including his own |
|
where they expressed fear. So Stewart got him a stuffed bear (that he thought was a Panda) and warm cocoa with marshmallows so that he would feel safe there.

7. A) Lame attempt to reach out to the youth and B) Books are more marketable to those that read. |
|
C) Books inspire thought which is against Reich Wing policy for the masses. Its dangerous to them for the people to think any of their nonsense through.
