Sounds like a good reason to get an iPad. Anyway, I’m looking forward to the memoir. Have you pre-ordered yours yet?
Personally, I cannot wait for this book to come out. I have been anxiously awaiting Bush’s memoir pretty much since he left office. Most of you know that this site was once Blogs For Bush, so you can understand why his memoir would be of such high interest for me. I know that history will look upon his presidency favorably, and I see this memoir as the first step in setting the record straight.
