Katherine Mangu-Ward Quite an animated article. What was the point?

If Newt gave 5 Stars to Wesley Clark's book, I think I'll take his reviews with a grain of salt.
I find Amazon reader reviews very helpful at scoping out books. You have to weigh them up, but they are usually pretty useful.

I see that only 6 of 30 people found Newt's review of Bill O'Reilly's Those Who Tresspass helpful. ....lol.

He does not review all of the books he reads. Whereas with most critics, it's the other away around.

Gingrich is a very smart guy. His rise in congress is a testament to how smart he is. The liberals hated him so much, and we lost a good public servant.

Tomorrow is Newt's birthday. I haven't heard if he plans to jump out of a plane.

I think I could easily review several thousand books - just have to sacrifice a little of my FR time to cruise over at Amazon.
I don't think it's worth it.

The first customer review that appears for Gingrich's alternate history of the civil war Gettysburg is rather harsh: "We won you lost get over it" writes reviewer "thejaxs225".
Since Newt was born in Harrisburg PA, this comment has a certain irony to it.
