The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder
Vincent Bugliosi
Vanguard Press, 2008
A must read
This book should be read by ALL Americans. It's a real eye opener. The time line is excellent. ALL Congressmen and Representatives should be forced to read it. But if you put the book on their desk it would be lost in the bribe money.

Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking
Malcolm Gladwell
Back Bay Books, 2007
Another Great Book for Gladwell
An excellent book, just as good as Gladwell's previous landmark, "The Tipping Point," "Blink" is fascinating in the confirmation that "thin slice" first impressions are more than intuitive, they are the results of subconscious factual significant experience and ...
