State of Denial

Review of the new book by Bob Woodward titled "State of Denial".

From the New York Times:

In Bob Woodward’s highly anticipated new book, “State of Denial,” President Bush emerges as a passive, impatient, sophomoric and intellectually incurious leader, presiding over a grossly dysfunctional war cabinet and given to an almost religious certainty that makes him disinclined to rethink or re-evaluate decisions he has made about the war. It’s a portrait that stands in stark contrast to the laudatory one Mr. Woodward drew in “Bush at War,” his 2002 book, which depicted the president — in terms that the White House press office itself has purveyed — as a judicious, resolute leader, blessed with the “vision thing” his father was accused of lacking and firmly in control of the ship of state.

This book has been overshadowed by recent events (N. Korea, Iran, Rep. Foley) but it still is a very important book for people to read. I have not personally read the book so I am basing this opinion from what reviews I have read about this book. It is one book that I will soon read but I have yet to get the chance. No matter if you agree with this book, a person needs to read this and decide what he/she believes is true. If anything contained within this book is true, than America should know about it. This should NOT be overshadowed by recent events, and cannot be overshadowed for this book is not going away anytime soon.
