1. The plugs must've worked, if you bought it.
But in answer to your question, yes, I am tired of hearing him plug the book. I'm now counting the minutes on either of his shows until he utters either "JFK" or "Kennedy." It's usually not more than a minute or two.

2. Bill Maher called him on it last Friday... "you've been plugging it ad nauseam!"

LOL! I was tempted to buy it but then I decided not to. Matthews is doing great and doesn't need my help.

5. No, Kennedy was a great Democratic President
and he can push it as much as he wants. It's #3 now, and the book will remind many independents what Democrats stand for if they buy it.

6. I've read excerpts, it can't touch "JFK And The Unspeakable" by...
James Douglass. It is quite simply the one single book about JFK that, if you haven't read it, you don't know what the fuck you are talking about. And that mos def includes Matthews.

8. I'm tired of hearing Matthews about anything
Except for Maddow and Hays, I would have blocked the channel on my TV device.
