Amazon edits my review

Update: It's now the spotlighted review.

After two rounds of emails, Amazon finally got around to posting my review of "Stategery", a book that praises both Our Leader's genius and his cunning use of malapropisms as a means of connecting with Joe Illiterate. Unfortunately, Amazon chose to replace my last paragraph with ellipses placed between brackets. They also posted it directly to the last page of reviews.

You'll find Amazon's version of my post here. I hope it's still helpful even in its truncated form. If you think so, please tell Amazon so by clicking the appropriate button. The original appears below with the parts Amazon removed appearing in italics.

Ignorance is Strength, February 28, 2006
Reviewer: Gen. JC Christian, patriot (Tremonton, UT United States) - See all my reviews

I don't understand why Mr. Sammon and his publisher, Regnery, pick titles like "Strategery" and "Misunderestimated" (Sammon's previous book). Although both books are testaments to Our Leader's genius, such titles encourage mockery harsh enough to qualify as sedition.

I suppose some might argue that the titles are meant to appeal to our love for Orwellian language--who hasn't chuckled under their breath when they've heard an Administration apparatchik declare that increases in insurgent activity are evidence that our Iraq strategy is working--but I'm not sure the larger public gets the joke.

I'm also disappointed that there aren't more attacks against the Clintons in this book. Sure, there are a few cheap shots taken at Hillary's presidential ambitions, but they are not the kind of all out anti-Clinton diatribes we've come to expect from Regnery books.

If that's what you're looking for, you should pass on "Strategery" and pick up one of these Regnery classics:

"Sell Out: The Inside Story of President Clinton's Impeachment"
"Hell to Pay: The Unfolding Story of Hillary Rodham Clinton"
"Absolute Power: The Legacy of Corruption in the Clinton-Reno Justice Department"
"On the Make: The Rise of Bill Clinton"
"Final Days A Behind the Scenes Look at the Last Desperate Abuses of Power by the Clinton White House"
"The Year of the Rat: How Bill Clinton Compromised U.S. Security for Chinese Cash"
"The Secret Life of Bill Clinton."
