Did you read the article? The book has gotten some pretty good reviews, especially in libertarian circles. I guess I will have to post more info about it. Wow, talk about killing the messenger.

Being a republican he will bend the words of choice to garner a feeling of apathy that he desires. Now, I guess the real question is, what is his motive behind the book? Every author writes for a reason. He isn't running for president at the time so what is his game? Is he trying for the nobel peace prize?

What may be most important on that is the generation of WWII is nearing the end of their days. We need to know our history or be damned to repeat it.
