Publisher's Synopsis

'They misunderestimated me'...

He tends to blurt out all or part of what he's really thinking, even as he's trying to lie about it...George W Bush is so illiterate as to turn completely incoherent when he speaks without a script.

He seems like too easy a target, but Dubya speaks for himself. Whether he's envisioning 'a foreign-handed foreign policy', explaining the American military's role - 'to fight and be able to win war, and therefore prevent war from happening in the first place' - or telling his nation that 'more and more of our imports come from overseas', George W Bush's appointment to the highest office in the world should strike fear into all our hearts.

THE BUSH DYSLEXICON not only places the President in the context of other notorious dunces-in-chief, but shows him to be indisputably in a league of his own. Packed with incisive essays, famous interviews and classic comments, this book is much more than an amusing collection of Bush's gaffes - it is also a biting polemic on a culture so dependent on the emptiness of television that it has allowed a man who was unable to name the leaders of Pakistan,Chechnya or India to become US President.

To quote Bush himself, 'It's not the way America is all about'.
