Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Shameless hagiography
Review: This book is worthless to anyone who wants to learn about the inner workings of the Bush administration. It is a very badly written hagiography with a lot of fluff thrown in.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: seems like a nice lady, but...........
Review: This book is just too shallow for me. I was hoping for some revelation into the inner workings of George Bush, and got fluff instead. At least she had sense enough to get out of Washington before this inept and totlly corrupt administration took hold.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Political Spin?
Review: Karen Hughes book is similar to the writings of any anti-feminist; anti-woman. She gladly takes her backstand to all males- as conservative women do. Her description of GW Bush as having a "laser-like mind" is laughable and only confirms my suspicion regarding her lack of average intelligence.
Anyone who can look at George W. Bush and not see a moron-is a moron herself.
Hughes insults not only herself but all women who enjoy an above-average level of intelligence. Dont bother reading it unless you too, have such low self-esteem that you wish to degrade yourself and all women.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Farther from Normal than that...
Review: This book is sinking like a stone on bestseller lists as people come to learn that's it's little more than a salivating lapdog's sycophantic apologia for a failed president. It's normal to look at George Bush and see a liar, a flip flopper, a man who treats war as though it were a video game and is in way over his head in the oval office. What's abnormal is for a reputedly intelligent woman to remain loyal to such a man. Hughes and Condi should join a therapy group!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: PR, PR, PR (stands for pointless rhetoric)
Review: If this book had ONE thing of substance in it, I'd be happy to report. Having known Hughes in a former life, I can testify that she is a master of spin (I think she even believes it herself sometimes). She can write in circles for pages and pages, and this she has done well. But this book has NOTHING of substance in it except perhaps to let the public know that Karen really REALLY likes geo bush and owes him a lot. If this book is her payback, he should be concerned.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: pure pablum
Review: I spent about an hour with this book at my local Borders. Its all fluff with no clear insight into the thinking and decision making processes of George W. Bush. Perhaps I was expecting too much, and no such processes exist in this man.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: It is junk
Review: Despite what some have said on this review thread, this book really is a piece of junk. It is poorly written, and is so sappy in it's admiration for George Bush that you can use as a topping for your waffles.

I would recommend other books if you're interested in the Bush adminstration because this one has no depth or substance, and reads like childrens book.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: After reading some of these five star posts...
Review: ...I think I'll save my money and wait until she sells the Ten Minutes from Normal book rights to the WB as a sitcom.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Loud and clear
Review: This is a ridiculously self-indulgent memoir, not worth the paper it's written on. The fat lady has sung, loud and clear.

Don't bother!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: When Is A Review Not A Review
Review: When it is a blog. Apparently only the left, when they find themselves in a deep hole, keep digging. As one reviewer noted earlier this is supposed to be a place for book reviews, not a place for leftist whackos to vent their spleen and spew their vitriol. So blinded by hate and choking on their own ideology they now find themselves falling further behind the power curve and so now attack the messenger. WHY?? Because their messages have been repudiated by an ever more aware electorate that refuses to be spoonfed their elitist BS. You know who you are!! You reap what you sow!! Live With It!!
