That way, if people buy it through this site DU will get a little money for it. I hate to give that putz (McClellan) money but I'm eager to read his book and get it up on the bestseller list, so I'd like to at least mitigate it by helping this website.

What do you all think? Would you be more willing to buy the book if you could do it through DU?

I had a gift card for Borders, so I figured what the heck.

2. Good idea, recommended the thread. Was going to buy it at Barnes
& Noble or elsewhere, Amazon, anyway. Hey, regardless of Scotty's past, I give him credit for what he is doing. He is getting less than a $100,000 for advance, so not the money. He has confirmed what we all knew.

3. The link could be through Amazon or B & N.
I'm kinda partial to B & N because they're a Blue company. Thanks for the rec.

6. I definitely want to read that book.
But I have to say, I also want to read Scotty's book too.

7. Don't get your hopes up...
We are going to find out that Scott was not actually privy to any of the information he has in his book. The worst thing they can do is make him testify to congress... remember, the republicans get to cross-examine him!!!

If we let his book just sit out there and simmer, then it becomes truth, but if it is discredited by the republican attack machine and the conservative press, then it will all be forgotten in a matter of months! That's what's going to happen in the congressional hearings, and we're going to help the republicans do it!
