Even for a devoted member of the "Anyone But Bush" camp (ABB tank top, anyone?) it's hard to keep up with the literature these days. This is no doubt because I am feverishly reading memoirs of the Clinton administration (George Stephanopoulos, a fun vacation read; Sydney Blumenthal, which defeated me with ponderous and unreadable writing; Madeleine Albright, the best of the bunch so far). It's keeping me so busy I don't have time to read the current crop of political potboilers (Clarke, Woodward et al.) But I can make time to read excerpts of the Woodward book, which appear all week at the Washington Post site. (via Bookslut)
