Sy Hersh's book will be released the same day as Kitty Kelly's book

[Dirty Hippie]

Hummmm... which to read first?

From Amazon:

In Chain of Command, Hersh takes an unflinching look behind the public story of President Bush's "war on terror" and into the lies and obsessions that led America into Iraq. He reveals the connections between early missteps in the hunt for Al Qaeda and disasters on the ground in Iraq. The book includes a new account of Hersh's pursuit of the Abu Ghraib story and of where, he believes, responsibility for the scandal ultimately lies. Hersh draws on sources at the highest levels of the American government and intelligence community, in foreign capitals, and on the battlefield for an unparalleled view of a crucial chapter in America's recent history. With an introduction by The New Yorker's editor, David Remnick, Chain of Command is a devastating portrait of an Administration blinded by ideology and of a President whose decisions have made the world a more dangerous place for America.

1. Personally, I'll go with Hersh's first. .. assuming I even look at Kelly's

I'm not sure I have any desire to read hers.

2. that's very unfortunate

It works to Bush's advantage. The scandalous allegations will blow Hersh's serious work off the news.

3. KK's will have more one line sticky points

If KKKKarl had a Kitty Kelly book in the wings he would go with it full blast.

We can say what we want about his tactics,he is the scum of the earth but he ain't dumb.
