One wonders if George has ever actually read a book, any book, even the one he is so fond of misquoting. It could realistically be doubted whether he even has the skills to read a book that is not in extra-large print and covering the adventures of John and Jane. Picture-books seem more suited to his obvious lack of literary knowledge, as well as his well-known difficulty with the spoken word. Could a less suitable candidate have been found ? Not unless it was Sarah herself, the queen of refudiation. I guess that something had to be found for George to "do" while he otherwise sinks into the painful obscurity of the barely literate, it should be an amusing event, his remarks are legendarily obtuse and mishandled and we can look forward to another PR disaster from the man that gave us such gems as " and they have no disregard for human life" when talking about Afghan fighters. and "anyone engaging in illegal financial transactions will be caught and persecuted" and, one of my favourites, " I'm telling you there's an enemy that would like to attack America, Americans, again, There just is. That's the reality of the world.And I wish him all the very best." -- Washington DC Jan 12th 2009, Priceless !

Can't wait for Sarah Palin's keynote address at the Mensa national convention.

Damn. Political books. All ghost written. Should not be considered part of the literary world.

So I predict the best seller at the Miami Book Fair will be: Irony in America.

Bush needs more books to fill his presidential library on the SMU campus. The books "Where's Waldo" and "My Pet Goat" that Dick Cheney gave him just aren't enough.

Writing a caption for that pic would be like shooting fish in a barrel, but way, way funnier!
