Title: “The Obama Diaries”
Author: Laura Ingraham
Rank: 5
Blurb: “Major media outlets love to describe the president as ‘no drama Obama,’ but The Obama Diaries tells a different tale. Through these ‘diary entries,’ readers will see past the carefully constructed Obama façade to the administration’s true plans to ‘remake America.'”
Sample Entry: Michelle on being First Lady: “I’ll be damned if all this fabulosity is going to go to waste reading Dr. Seuss to snot-nosed kids all day.” (January 23, 2009)
Review: “Obama is a cash cow for these neocons. He’s done more for them than Bush ever could.”
At Least We Can All Agree On Something: “Monolithic New York publishers can’t get enough of Conservative wisdom translated to the literary form. In a word, ‘Cha-ching!'”
Customers Also Bought: “Can America Survive?: 10 Prophetic Signs That We Are The Terminal Generation,” by John Hagee.
Footnote: “That’s My Bush!” sucked, too.
