The Real Bush Diaries: Second Term, First Year

by Peter Clothier

A raw and often riotous look into the second coming of Bush. You would shake your fist if you could put this book down long enough. A must-read for all concerned Americans. The Real Bush Diaries is a wonderfully irreverent romp through the fifth year of the Bush administration. Peter Clothier recounts the events of the year with clarity and precision. His daily musings reveal the truth behind the Bush administration and offer a refreshing look at why America invaded Iraq, gave tax cuts to the rich and runs a record deficit. "With the wit and wisdom of a modern day Will Rogers, Clothier's daily musings and poignant jabs on what is arguably the most egregious U.S. president in our nation's history, gives word to what so many of us think, or should be thinking!" -Bob Burchman, Santa Monica, California "Clothier's insightful views of the Bush years have a great balance between political and poetic. One can only hope that Bush is not only reading, but listening." -Lori Agostino, Los Angeles, California "Reading The Real Bush Diaries is like having a lively and provocative chat over coffee with a bright and articulate friend. Blog on, Peter!" -Fred Thompson, Laguna Beach, California

About the author

Peter Clothier is an internationally-known writer who specializes in writing about art and artists. He believes in avoiding the jargon that obscures much current writing about art, and in writing simply, clearly, in language that the lay person can readily understand. He seeks to achieve a harmony of mind, heart, and body in his work, and looks for this quality in the artists he writes about. A reformed academic, now fifteen years in recovery, he has returned in recent years to teaching, in mostly non-traditional ways: in workshops, continuing groups, and individual coaching and mentoring for artists and writers.
