David Letterman used the fact that George W. Bush is working on his memoirs as fuel for his July 11 Top Ten list Top ten chapter titles in George W. Bush's memoirs.

Letterman uses many of Bush's highest achievements as fuel for chapter titles,including his cheerleader years and his impressively low approval rating.

The crowning achievement from this list is definitely number seven, 'The War in Iraq, a 6-foot sandwich, and other things I started but couldn't finish.'

No word yet on whether Bush has officially adopted any of the titles.

David Letterman really hit it on the head with his top ten list of Bush Memoire Chapter Titles! The Dems should take note! If they can't get Dave to help them campaign, they should inject some similar humor into their own campaign ads and speeches! I think they'd find alot of people laughing all the way to the polls to elect Democrats!

Letterman is funny but the situtation is not.
Bush and the Neo-cons cannot continue to violate the 1st Amendment by putting demonstrators behind fences and pressuring book outlets to drop "America Deceived" by E.A Blayre III. Another number, 4th Amendment cannot be usurped by allowing the gov't to illegally wire-tap our phones. Those are some real significant numbered clauses, not a countdown on Letterman.
