"Cruel and Unusual: Bush/Cheney's New World Order"
I can't wait for the fair and balanced media to cover "Cruel and Unusual" with the same fervor that they covered "Unfit for Command".

1. Just finished it...
A fabulous book. I highly recommend it (I also really enjoyed "Fraud" by Paul Krugman).

There was one quote from * in Cruel and Unusual that I couldn't believe. He had just toured a slavery museum in Africa and said to the media afterwards that (I'm paraphrasing) it was an inspiring story that so many Africans had chosen to come to America in search of freedom.

I was flabbergasted. I never heard that one before. It might be *'s all-time stupidest statement -- and there's a lot of competition for that honor.
