Bush Book on Decisions Is Set for 2010

As widely expected, former President George W. Bush, like many past occupants of the Oval Office, is writing a book. But rather than delivering a more traditional presidential memoir, Mr. Bush plans to explain 12 difficult personal and political decisions he has made.

Mr. Bush mentioned the book Tuesday in his first speech since leaving office, delivered in Calgary, Alberta. The book, tentatively titled “Decision Points,” is to be published in 2010 by Crown Publishing Group, a division of Random House.

Christ, even the name and premise are terrible. This man is a human wasteland.

I for one am looking forward to reading 400 pages of equivocation, ignorance, buck passing, messianic inspiration, pigheaded insistence, declarations of future generations appreciating him, and probably a few wacky Cheney/BBQ stories. On the bad side, the little shit is getting $7 million to whine about how we didn't 'get' him. On the 'silver lining' front it's less than Bill, Hillary, Tony Blair, and Sarah Kierkegaard Palin got. Oh yes, 2010 may bring us books by both Palin and Bush. Go fuck yourself Philip Roth and Cormac McCarthy, we have our new literary future ahead of us. Dump your pitiful new tomes in the garbage where they belong, Bush and Palin are talkin' 'bout God, media conspiracies against them, and family.
