2. Nice touch having OBL in various videos playing behind him.
*gag* Nothing subliminal about that, eh?

Wolf asks the most asinine questions. If only somebody would slap him and say, "You need meds!"

======================

Thanks, liveoaktx.

5. It's almost like an anti-endorsement.
The book might be interesting, but honestly, your publicity is that OBL likes it? Somehow I just don't think he's the best critic to have singing your praises.

I wouldn't necessarily not read it just because OBL cites it (I think that kind of behavior is a logical fallacy - argumentum ad verecundiam?) but it's not the person I would have selling my book. That whole mass murderer thing just doesn't make him the most credible of scholars.
