Well if I feel like sitting down for some comic relief, then yeah, I might read it, but only if it is sitting around. Seriously though, not going to waste my money on any book written by a politician. I would rather read books by General Tommy Franks (great read), General Fredrick Franks (great read), General Schwartzkopf (and again a great read), General Colin Powel (still good reading). These guys inspire me. Great leaders.
