how much do I hate the Bush twins? let me count the ways.
Did I already blog about this? I might have. Apologies. It's just that every time I see those stupid, privileged, misbehaving, all-noblesse-and-no-oblige First Twins in the news for their antics or for their "accomplishments," my blood pressure heats up and the words on my computer screen get all blurry and red. So I'm sharing my rage with you, friends. Check out the dumb cover of the stupid book that Jenna Bush "wrote" based on her "work" with UNICEF. And here's the description on Amazon. There's no link to submit a review yet, but when the book comes out this fall, I'm going to write a doozy.
Can we all agree, as new librarians (employed or not), that none of us will waste a collection development dime on this drivel? I'm not talking about censorship--I may even read this piece of crap book just to make myself miserable for an afternoon--I'm just saying that asshole First Twins with trust funds financed by torture, minority subjugation, and environmental annihilation (to name just a few offenses) shouldn't be allowed to exploit the narratives of people victimized by their father and grandfather in order to make a buck (I don't care if she's going to donate the profits; it's blood money) or to improve their reputations. Thanks, yo.

Deborah- Are you responsible for any of the tags in the amazon.com description? Propaganda and bulbous toad are two of my favorite user generated subjects. Ever.
that's a great idea, I just added a bunch of tags.
Preach, sista!!
This does indeed seem to be a large pile of upper crusty crap. Censor away!
Oh Deborah, that was so inspiring and well written I'm getting teary. Nothing I could say could compare. Well done :)

What tripe!
