I agree with a lot of that.

I think it is insulting to write off Obama's ascension within the party -- and in the country -- as "undeserved." I just don't see what his best-selling book has to do with it. Obama is a big deal right now. People read his book. That makes him Harry Potter. Not JFK.

I don't agree with the "post turtle" nonsense. I think I made that clear with my other post in this thread. But book sales? Not buying.
