Product Description

President George W. Bush describes the critical decisions of his presidency and personal life.

Decision Points is the extraordinary memoir of America’s 43rd president. Shattering the conventions of political autobiography, George W. Bush offers a strikingly candid journey through the defining decisions of his life.

In gripping, never-before-heard detail, President Bush brings readers inside the Texas Governor’s Mansion on the night of the hotly contested 2000 election; aboard Air Force One on 9/11, in the hours after America’s most devastating attack since Pearl Harbor; at the head of the table in the Situation Room in the moments before launching the war in Iraq; and behind the Oval Office desk for his historic and controversial decisions on the financial crisis, Hurricane Katrina, Afghanistan, Iran, and other issues that have shaped the first decade of the 21st century.

President Bush writes honestly and directly about his flaws and mistakes, as well as his accomplishments reforming education, treating HIV/AIDS in Africa, and safeguarding the country amid chilling warnings of additional terrorist attacks. He also offers intimate new details on his decision to quit drinking, discovery of faith, and relationship with his family.

A groundbreaking new brand of memoir, Decision Points will captivate supporters, surprise critics, and change perspectives on one of the most consequential eras in American history – and the man at the center of events.

I got an advance copy of this book...it was all blank pages

 

[manimal]

Not too thread crap but I wonder if it will have lots of pictures? Wonder if he will talk about his decision to ruin the Texas rangers by overpaying for A-rod?

May actually end up reading this since it may be relevant to some work I do.

 

[russw]

Better lock this one up quickly. Canon fodder for loose canons.

 

[slayer202]

what a steal

 

[hans007]

so this must be like the presidents book version of william hung's music album.

 

[Auric]

It's a pop-up book.

 

[TwinsenTacquito]

I hope it explains why he felt the Patriot Act was a good thing. D:

 

[smartadze]

JC! Did 8 years of this crap really happen?? Now I'm depressed again - I'm going back to bed.

 

[RedChief]

At least we have access to Bush's Yale records and his grades. Now with regimes leader, all his past records are under lock and key.

 

[Cr0nJ0b]

Rush couldn't have said it better himself.

 

[almer]

Well said. Lock and key are on the bottom of the dark ocean. So much for "change"

 

[RedChief]

Remember back in 200 when we were told how much smarter Al Gore was then Bush yet when there grades were released, Gore turned out to be a mediocre student?

But hey, at least we to see Gore grades (unlike Kerry's full Vietnam record or Obamas transcripts or Hillary's Masters thesis).

 

[dew042]

I hope it explains why he felt the Patriot Act was a good thing. D:

Yeah, that's why it was repealed so quickly under the current administration. Oh wait.

dew.

Isn't it time you guys start bitching about Obama's birth certificate?

George W. Bush's biography should come with crayons.

 

[vaylon]

They did release his grades during his first election.
His entire academic life was spent with a C average.
and he accomplished all of that with his family giving millions to the schools.

GW was nothing but a party animal and an airhead.
Dick on the other hand was tops at everything he ever attempted.

and Obama's birth certificate is from Hawaii. You can look at it all you want, it won't change.

Since there's not really anything "hot" about this deal, and it's initiating the obligatory political sniping, could we have an admin lock it or move it somewhere else?
