Eduardo Galeano should write a thank you note to Hugo Chavez today because thanks to him, Galeano's 1971 text "The Open Veins of Latin America: Five Centuries of the Pillage of a Continent" is the second best-selling book on Amazon.com today. As Gaggle readers would know, Chavez gave Obama a copy of this book during a meeting of South American leaders. Interestingly, the number 1 book on Amazon couldn't be more of a contrast: "Liberty and Tyranny: A Conservative Manifesto" by Mark Levin.

:waits for Newsweak to talk about the #1 book on Amazon:
Probably because on Friday every liberal Latin American Studies professor told his students it was now required reading for the course. Call me if it’s still no. 2 on Friday.
And Mark Levin is STILL No. 1. Nice try, Libtards.
Don’t hold your breath. Not a single MSM publication has touched it to date.
I seriously thought about buying the book to see what it was all about, now I may buy both #1 and #2 book, to keep it even ya know.
Much to the dismay of Newsweak, no doubt.
OBozo can put his copy of the book on the pedestal where Churchills bust was......
My guess is that Barry is very familiar with this book.
At least buy #2 used...
