I will because I feel no matter what anyone thinks if he was good or bad he did his job and he deserves to be heard no matter what he has to say. I plan on ordering it when I get the money up.

I do not. He has lied repeatedly to the country, to his wife, to his daughter. Why should I invest my time in reading, and also supporting him financially, for something that I can't even rely on to be the truth? That's just my point of veiw. If you want to read it, hey, more power to ya.

Then doesn't Bush deserve the same consideration? Or is that only for people you like?

BTW, I have better things to do with my time. All this book is is admitting to what he denied doing while in office. Great role-model.

Everyone has a chance to be heard I would read what bush said if he makes a book just because I don't like what bush does doesn't mean I won't like to read and see what he says.

Bush does have a book. It is called "A Charge To Keep".

Plus, Clinton has had plenty of chances to be heard. Half of the time he lies.

I suppose. I think this was written right after, or before he was elected, not sure.

Bah, I don't recommend it. It is good.....but there is alot of BS in it. Wait until the one comes out after he gets out of office, that would be a much better buy.

I was tempted. Really, I was. I figure it would probably make for a good laugh or two. However, I'd really rather not give him ANY financial support, and besides that, I have faaaar better things to read. The most rewarding sight: Hilary and Bill's books under a large sign that says "Fiction." Yes, this is actually something I saw. It made me very happy.

Don't plan on reading it, although I've thought about it. However, it's nearly 1,000 pages long, and a book about his life thats that long, is bound to be boring.

Ok, if you were bored to death by the "interveiw" Dan Rather did with Mr. Clinton over tea and cookies, then go to this one, done just a few days ago by the BBC. It gets very juicy in the middle. You can tell Clinton actually starts to get mad at the reporter.
