Who will be Obama's VP pick?



A major book publisher is planning to release a sexually provocative, fictionalized novel loosely based on First Lady Laura Bush's life during the first week of September - a date that conveniently coincides with the Republican National Convention.

Radar Magazine said Curtis Sittenfield's latest tome American Wife, to be published by Random House, 'is sure to send the White House into a fury.'

The plot, supposedly linked to Mrs. Bush, revolves around various incidents of lesbianism, abortion and explicit, intimate relations with the President. Some of these scandalous excerpts are available on Radar's website. (Townhall doesn't find them suitable for reprinting.)

The 576-page book is available for pre-order on Amazon.com for $17.16 plus shipping and handling. Its formal release is scheduled for September 2, smack in the middle of the Republican National Convention which begins on the 1st and ends the 4th.

American Wife follows Sittenfeld's best-selling book Prep.

Subject: The Classlessness of Liberalism
Another example of the utter classlessness Liberalism brings us.

I wonder how many of the same tired and old "Bush" jokes are in this disgusting piece of cowflop loosely defined as literature.

There's no Lie a lib won't tell !
I Heard the sarcastic jokes about Chelsea on late night TV before the Alleged date credited to John McCain. I know that the heart of John McCain is not one that would allow him to make such comments about any child. As for the author of this trash book and the publisher thereof, may the burn in hell for eternity !

I hope the people of America show some real class for a change and boycott this book and may the pages be recycled into toilet paper again. There are many of us southern gentlemen out here who take great exception to any shadows cast upon Laura Bush for any reason. I take it personally and would defend her to the last breath of who-so-ever casts such shadows.
One day, History will prove the true greatness of G.W. as a President and for doing all he could to protect America in spite of a bunch of wussy democrats and a mass media coalessed against him. GW didn't fail America, America failed him !
