President Barack Obama already has a job lined up after his presidency: writing another book.

The best-selling author reached a new book deal a few weeks before his inauguration. A financial disclosure report released this week shows Obama amended his agreement with Crown Publishing Group to deliver a new nonfiction book after he leaves office.

I'm sure that one of those 8000+ earmarks will pay ex-presidential authors, who's middle name rhyme with Huckster with a billion dollar tax free grant for fictional phooey. SARC-OFF

Good. I guess he doesn’t expect to be reelected.

Wow! Non-fiction....his FIRST! Any mention of host-writing? Is Billy-the-Bomber’s phone ringing?

First things first.

Two autobiographies before he is even a presidential candidate, and a memoirs book deal already inked.

Meanwhile Rome burns.

This jerk is a real piece of work.

With the coming hyperinflation cause by his porkulus, that should just be enough to buy a cup of coffee...If I were him, I’d take a big advance against royalties right now.

A good title would be “Memoirs of a Liar”....and at the bottom of every page, a Hail Mary prayer.

Omama’s TelePrompter will write this book or, Ayres who wrote his earlier book, will do the job. This sort of behavior by US politicians makes me think many of them should be in Guantanamo jail and torture should be done on them.

Actually this is good. He is planning his life after 3 1/2 years. That is actually a good amount of time to plan for writing a book with publisher. That means he will not be running for reelection because a publisher will not wait 7 1/2 years...I look at the positive. Actually I wish he would leave now and write a book...make him a successful author...I don’t care...Better than President any day.

The title is rumored to be “Dreams of my Teleprompter”.

I’ve been thinking of writing a book myself. I can’t imagine my story is less compelling than this boob’s. Anyone know a good writer’s agent they can hook me up with?

My story, titled “I was with the band”, about a Desert Storm vet who was in the army band. Came back, drove through college, ended up in an abusive relationship, finally left the woman who had abused him for ten years, and now getting back on his feet as a single father.

It has all the hallmarks of a good story: exotic adventure, personal tragedy, and redemption.
