Next week, Talk magazine will ask him to write a story about how he survived the Sam-N-Ella attack.

As an aside, I wonder how the evil couple are going to blunt the damage from BKO's book without looking ridiculous for attacking a deceased lady?

It will be fun to watch....that's for sure.

Bought mine last nite. Amazon has both of Mrs. Olson's books bundled for $40, including shipping.

Larry King is held out as a great interviewer, I think he is a jerk. I watch his program because usually he has interesting guests, however his questions are all too often very left leaning, and silly.

Oh you gotta get a copy.

WARNING: Be sure to buy more than one "highliter" along w/the book. I'm only through Chapter 4 and am about to wear out what was a brand new one!

BUMP what you said....I was very impressed among many other things by the Watergate coverage at the Nixon Library. Also enjoyed seeing the modest home where he was raised.

Just started my copy of 'Final Days'.....fantastic.....All FReepers should have one.

How many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie roll tootsie pop? The world may never know.

This will be another opportunity for the Clinton's to lower the bar even further.

Of course Hillary! won't directly respond to the charges, but we'll nonetheless witness the parade of her flying monkeys trashing our dearly departed heroes.

Next up, "the Olson estate is just trying to make money"

Better yet, we freepers could take up a collection to buy copies of "Hell to Pay" and "Last days" and all of the other great books that exposed the corruption and incompetence of the Clinton Whitehouse. We could donate them to the Clinton Library to be put on display.

Well I wouldn't stop at those books. Wouldn't it be great if people sent them books like "The Secret Life Of Bill Clinton", Meredith Oakley's "On The Make" and Joyce Milton's underrated Hillary bio?

What's with that stupid Larry King quote on the cover?

What does it say? I see no reason to reject a perfectly good blurb just because it's from a liberal.

I said on another thread, we should airdrop the book to NY....right now is an excellent time to try to get them from their liberalism when they have minds that are opened a bit. Seriously, I think FR and other conservative orgs should try to inundate NYC with this book.....not just in bookstores, but all over town. I bet BKO would be honored that we are using her works to try to convert NYers to conservatism. Unlike before Sept. 11, I now think we have a chance and we should take that chance.

O'Reilly is one of the perps who knocked BKO down to #5. He is #4. She'll regain the top spot however at Amazon.

I wrote my review the day it was released! This is the longest it has ever taken for a review to show up online!!

I'll be looking for it. It was a surprise to go to amazon and not see one reader review.

btw...nice graphic.

I wonder which 4 books knocked her book off the perch?

If I had to venture a guess? Bill O'Reilly's. It's been all over the place!! His release date was already set (the day after Barbara's), so I can't -- in good conscience -- get mad at him, but it really isn't fair to have both books out at the same time! ;-{

Thanks LL! For both! (Doesn't the angel look exactly like BKO?? It took my breath away when I found it!)

My review may get bumped for not "strictly" sticking to their recommended guidelines, but I figured this particular book has extenuating circumstances surrounding its release. If it's bumped, I'll write another. "Strictly" Amazon. ;-p

Yes. So much so I only could give it a glance. Damn these people.

Barbara Olson's book: A Hero writes about a Zero.

Or a TKO for BKO.

I got ahold of the book and it is superb. God Bless the memory of Barbara Olson. She was one gutsy, noble lady.
