Thanks for the post. No doubt the book will now( if it hasn't already) get a bad review from the N.Y. Slimes. The left will be surprised that Bush, the evil genius or dumb redneck (Dems can never make up their little minds on that one), can read. Democracy will march on; the liberals will wail in the dust.
Liberals will never believe that the President would recommend a book. They presume it's always the other way around.
I'm actually curious to find out; I don't see how they could pan it. This is great Schadenfreude; I think the left will squirm bigtime. The book validates Bush's policies. It does mildly criticize the execution of the Iraq War.
I think ultimately for cover the Left will fall back on virulent criticism of how badly Bush bungled the invasion, not the idea of toppling Saddam.

Similarly, I read 'Ronald Reagan: a life in letters' and you never saw such intelligent writings. The left called him stupid too... Notice that they attack the person, not their ideas.
