The Author President


While President Bush gaffed over authoritarian vs. authoritative, President Obama went straight for the author designation. The NYT reported:


President Barack Obama already has a job lined up after his presidency: writing another book. The best-selling author reached a new book deal a few weeks before his inauguration. A financial disclosure report released this week shows Obama amended his agreement with Crown Publishing Group to deliver a new nonfiction book after he leaves office.

Crown publishing? How symbolic for the Chief Executive of the Government-Industrial Monstrosity, Eisenhower's MIC on steroids. Will it detail the front stage soaring rhetoric or the back stage corporafornication? I'm all a twitter.
