Summary: I nearly wet myself!
Comment: This book is hilarious! It's so much more than just run-of-the-mill political humor. This is smart, biting and just plain funny. The cartoons add a whole new dimension to the humor and this Bush is so much more entertaining and likable than the guy in office. I particularly enjoy his fascination with baseball and comic books. Finally, a politician I can relate to.
Modern Humorist for President!!

Summary: Republicans like it too!
Comment: I have been looking foreward to reading this book isnce I heard that it was coming out, and finally bought it last week. Even though I am a Republican and voted for President Bush, I loved this book. The authors have the exact same sense of humor that I have, and it transcends party lines. Some of the best lines from the book are: "Wow, I didn't know you could walk so many miles to school without shoes. Maybe we could move a shoe factory near your home and you could work there, and get paid in shoes to make shoes"(Dubya to his Mexican pen pal Hector). "In case of 'vice' presidential demise tell president that uncle Dick is now living on a farm with other ex-vice presidents and retired oil executives"(from memo entitled "What to do in case of a 'vice' presidential heart attack). What makes this book even funnier are President Bush's third-grader illustrations that decorate the pages, and the red-penned "corrections" that are made to many of Bush's writings. Look, if you're a Republican, it doesn't pay to be uptight. By this book like I did. You'll probably enjoy it. If you're a Democrat, you should shurely buy this book. It made me laugh out loud, and I'm a Bush fan. If it made me laugh, you guys will LOVE it. If you want more Bush humor, I suggest reading "W. A White House Journal" or watching Comedy Central's "That's My Bush!"

Summary: Free Kareem! The Diary of George Bush Jr.
Comment: I am a casual fan of George W. Bush, but there's nothing wrong with unique, clever satire. Possibly inspired by the president's well-known malapropisms such as "they misunderestimated me," this book shows what things would be like if Dubya really was a child.
Even though written before Bush proved himself a hero to the nation on 9/11, the humor in this book hasn't really seemed to age. Young Bush writes letters to his staff, his Mexican pen pal Hector, and in a truly inspired satire of Bushisms, controversial journalist on Death Row Mumia Abu-Jamal, whom Young Bush confuses with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and writes how sad it is "the NBA's all-time leading scorer...[has] gotten [himself] in so much trouble. Why couldn't you have turned out more like Michael Jordan...part-owner of a terrible basketball team?"
You'll also find childish sketches for inventions to improve elections and executions, ridiculously failed assignments to improve presidential skills (haiku on his deepest emotions: "Very good movie/Mr. Holland's Opus makes/me cry at the end"), and what to do in case Cheney has another cardiac episode (comments Bush, who's obviously never heard the other meaning of the word "episode," "This was a good ER!") Also adding to the humor are the comments and corrections by the "teacher," the identity of whom is never revealed. (Daddy Bush? God?)
It may not be your cup of tea, but you might find this look into a fictional child Bush's world enjoyable. It's a lot easier to read than "Lives of Moral Leadership" (which, despite what Mr. Bush says, does not have any racist jokes in it).
