Cheney's Memoir: Where's the Liberal Spin?
"If this book were read by an intelligent person who spent the past 10
years on, say, Mars, she would have no idea that Dick Cheney was the
Vice President in one of the most hapless American administrations of
modern times....We've now had three self-serving memoirs from the past
administration.... Future historians who have the stomach to try to
figure out what happened under our 43rd President will be frustrated by
all three books, because none of them wrestles with the enormous issues
raised by this pugnacious administration and the world-changing messes
it left for its successors to clean up."
— Washington Post associate editor Robert
Kaiser in an August 30 review of Cheney's just-released In My Time.
If Only Bush Had Called
Domino's
“We
talked to Cory Booker, the Mayor of Newark. This is a tweet he sent out
last night, yes, on Saturday: ‘Heading on a pizza run. I’m going to
deliver 10 pizzas to those staying in our shelter at JFK.’ So, I mean,
you have the contrast, Michael Eric Dyson, between President Bush
regretting he had a flyover of the storm zone [after Hurricane Katrina]
and Mayor Booker personally delivering pizzas.”
— David Gregory talking about Hurricane Irene on NBC’s Meet the Press,
August 28.
