AT THE WASHINGTON POST, BOOK WARS. And, from the comments, this:

Why are Huttner and Salzman given a Washington Post blog to respond to criticisms from a third party website? Has Steven Levingston ever given over the keyboard to a conservative author so s/he can respond to the numerous criticisms of what s/he wrote?

Moreover, how stupid does Levingston have to be to uncritically accept the authors’ claims that “The book rises above partisanship” when its title explicitly endorses helping Obama?

Perhaps with the time Mr. Levingston saved by having these authors write a completely self-serving post, he could actually try finding someone at the Post to write just one review of the several conservative books dominating the bestseller list.

Helping Obama isn’t partisan. It’s “service.” Gleichschaltung!
