Donald Rumsfeld Soon to Bore All
Or is that bare all? In any case, talk is spreading in publishing circles that Donal Rumsfeld is shopping his memoirs. This of couse would be no surprise to any one who has ever stepped inside a bookstore, but I have to ask… why should anyone want buy his book? Do you really expect to learn something from it, gain state secrets… get a good laugh, maybe?
Political memoirs, 99.995% of the time are nothing if not boring. Yet, publishers keep shelling out huge advances for this pap. Come on… be honest Mr. Publisher, we all (and you certianly should) know that Rumsfeld’s tome will end up taking up valuable space in the remainder bins in bookstores within a matter of months.
Do your part for the environment and your bottom line… just say “no” to Mr. Rumsfeld. Save the space in the remainder bin’s for something more valuable to the culture as a whole like the latest two or three Tom Clancy titles or last year’s Danielle Steel’s hard cover.
I agree with booksquare… stop the madness.
