In reply to the discussion: Charles P. Pierce: The Anonymous White House Book-Writer Can Anonymously Bite Me [View all]ramen
(789 posts)86. I am surprised by the vitriol pileon about this here.
What difference would it make if there were a name on the front cover of this book? What information contained therein if the author stated their identity? How would their self-unmasking affect the nightmare of this administration, and how would they be in a better position to try to reduce the damage these clowns are doing from the white house if they weren't working there?
I don't understand the callings-out. I recognize that this is a popular position but I think shooting this messenger and calling out their alleged cowardice is misguided tree-barking.

I usually agree with Pierce, but not here. This book is important and should be read.
