last night Jim Cramer commented on Gore's book. Said he's been out on his book tour and all of the publishers are totally despondent about Gore's book. Seems it even tends to destroy book sales within a row or two proximity of it and publishers are pressing the bookstores not to put Gore's book near their books and getting really mad when they don't and then Gore's book drags theirs' down.

That made my day.

You forgot the "/sarcasm". Oh, it was a real comment?

Just like liberals. Blaming the mean spirited book seller/business man for the faults of their books. Like their ideas and messages in general.

The other publishers should be ragging on the Gores' publisher for screwing up the business by putting the bad apple in to
the barrel. Not the guy with the barrel.

I managed to avoid most of the blitzkrieg. The media outlets that allowed Gore to spew forth alienated me long ago.

So we can only wait for the equally toxic reation sure to be spewn forth by the Clinton and Clinton memroirs.

Of course, Bubba and Witch probably will never get around to writing "their" books. That's why you never pay a scoundrel up front. They simply take the money and run.
