Was Karen Hughes the "ghost writer" for Dubya's book?
I saw Ms hughes on TV the other day for the first time in a long time. It was like she had come out of hiding about the same time as the Smirking Chimp with his book? Is she the person that wrote it for him?

It only took about 2 years. I guess it was difficult to get Bush away from the pretzels and beer long enough to work on his own book? Nobody thinks Bush wrote it on his own.

1. If there are any words more than about 5 letters in it, then we KNOW he didn't write it.
Would YOU want to edit a "book" that the drunken shrub put together?

an out at his trial. He can claim all those admissions were just figments of her imagination to sell the book. His base would not have bought the book unless it said he approved of torture.

5. doubt it, most likely a professional ghostwriter
Given how he talks now, they probably had to sort through hours of tape of Bush rambling on and on about subjects. Cleaning up the point of view and the situation must of been hard. I imagine it was an amazing task for someone to do and produce a book that is semi-literate.
