47. I agree with you
It's amazing how many people will not read anything.

Also, with any book, only a small percentage of the population have to read it for it to be a best-seller. I'm sure Cindy will sell lots of books.

4. Yeah, I wouldn't take these numbers as a political statement
or anything. I am always amazed at how few people actually read books on a regualr basis.

7. Freepy-weepy.
They can't win the war votes, so they go after a little 'ol mom who's son was murdered by Bush.

Damn them Repukes are low-life scum.

Love making the freepers upset.

I've been reading Cindy's story every day here on DU and other places, I don't need to read it in a book (though I have thought of buying the book just to show support.)

20. Shithead Americans will buy Barbara Bush's "Millie's Book" but
they won't buy a book by a mother who was robbed of her son by the criminals in the White House.

That epitomizes the people of this country. Shit like "Millie's Book" sells, but this one would not? Sometimes I think maybe we should "let the terrorists win".

I had a professor in a conservative town say that we don't deserve an increaseingly better standard of living.

39. Really! Besides, who is to say what
standard of living will really make people content or happy?

It's just possible that people working on farms in the 19th century were happier or at least more content than are some of their descendants in today's world.

40. I heard a snip on c-spn this morning
It is about her knowing her son would be a great person, but didn't know how great. She says she misses him more everyday.
28,000 no votes shows how compassionate the freaks are.

49. Considering how little Americans bother to read, even 10% would be a plus
Hey, 24% isn't too bad...

I think too, not to be knocking Cindy, because I hope her book does well and I do intend on reading it, that the reality is most people feel that they have already heard through all the press writings etc. to know what Cindy has to say. I'm not saying she doesn't have many important thoughts and comments to share, but most people I know, myself included, read to actually get further information that I haven't gotten elsewhere. The reality is that this question doesn't reflect what people think of Cindy and the anti-war movement, it just has to do whether they are going to plop down $9 and/or take the time to read it given how valuable much of our time is and how little free time we have.

I think if the question read: Do you support (or agree) with Cindy Sheehan's opinion of the War on Iraq? The percentage of people saying yes would be 70%+...

...president's Iraq policy while troops are still fighting there?

No: 83%
Yes: 17%

Total votes: 22,539

Apparently, Americans liked what they saw of Murtha and the Dems over the last few days. They very much WANT this matter discussed.

Not that I disapprove, I just have about 10 books waiting to be read.
