Throw The Book At Them

Naturally with Dick Cheney all over the TV, he's now wanting a book deal too.

So, why has Dick Cheney been so desperate to hit the airwaves as part of his crusade against the White House? Explanations differ, but his desire to sell a memoir to publishers might have at least something to do with his efforts.

With his sustained blitz of television appearances and speeches, former Vice President Dick Cheney has established himself as perhaps the leading Republican voice against President Obama.

Not a bad time, then, to be in the market for a multimillion-dollar book contract.... A person familiar with discussions Mr. Cheney has had with publishers said he was seeking more than $2 million for his advance. That sum may prove hard to get in this economic climate, especially given his generally low approval ratings, which publishers view as a potential -- but not certain -- harbinger for sales.

Reports indicate Cheney may end up with a deal with Simon & Schuster, because it's home to an imprint run by Mary Matalin, who is also publishing Karl Rove's book.

Are you going to pay good money to hear Cheney spout the same crap he's been spouting since he allowed 9/11 to happen?

I bet the rest of the Republicans WITH seats in Congress are just thrilled to death to see Cheney writing a book and reminding everyone why he has an approval rating less than half of the current President.
