Olbermann had a segment tonight on the forthcoming blockbuster book from David Kuo, "Tempting Faith -- An Inside Story of Political Seduction," as dKosser PLS already previewed. Kuo worked in the White House as deputy director in Bush's highly touted Office of Faith-Based initiatives from 2001 through 2003. There is little advance information about the book online. But based on Keith's story, Kuo's kiss and tell sounds devastating, exposing the cynicism and hypocrisy underlying the relationship between the Republicans and the religious right.

Yes, of course -- the rubes won't read it. But (a) some of the shepherds will, and (b) perhaps a few of them will watch "60 Minutes" -- the corporate site does not yet list next week's stories, but the American Bookseller's Association website says "Tempting Faith" is on the roster for this Sunday.

I expect this book to put pressure on even those televangelists and other hucksters who have financial incentives to ignore such personal affronts. This book is going to create yet another rift between the the Republicans and their enablers.

So even if the White House succeeds in pushing Foley off the front page (so to speak -- is it even possible to talk about this story with out double entrendre?), next week promises to be another bad week for the Republican coalition of the willing.

It's time this fakery ended. They lie and lie and lie and lie and lie. I want to volunteer to waterboard Cheney. I'll make the freak admit to the Lindberg kidnapping and the Judge Crater disappearance. I could care less that he wasn't alive then. He WILL confess. Actually, I might refuse to accept his confessions. Waterboarding the freak will be too much fun to stop.

I heard a quote from Dobson basically defending Foley. He and Falwell are still silent on torture, the renditions, the war in Lebanon, the wiretaps and the loss of liberties.

I hope they all go down with this Titanic.
