President To Author: Your Book Is Unpatriotic:
If Hudson is telling the truth – and there’s no reason to think he isn’t – Bush recently sent the young author a two-paragraph note, complete with his own review of “Dear Mr. President.”
“I was in shock. Very surprised,” Hudson said Tuesday. “I didn’t think it was real at first. I mean, who would? But once you hold the thing and read it, there’s no doubt in your mind. I mean, nobody could fake the authority of that letter.”
Bush’s missive, however, was not fan mail.
“The letter began by thanking me for sending the book,” Hudson said. “Also, I’m from Austin, Texas, and the president touched on the fact that I was a fellow Texan, congratulating me on my book. But he was setting me up for the one-two punch. Because he called the book unpatriotic and ridiculous and just plain bad writing. Beyond that, I’ve been instructed not to talk about the contents of the letter for the time being.”
That’s not all. Hudson says FBI agents have been hanging around at his recent book readings, and the book’s website (Gabehudson.com) is apparently being monitored by the government.
Now that’s a scary story for Halloween. Who needs Nightmare on Elm Street when you have our fine “elected” “leaders”. “Instructed not to talk about the contents of the letter,” hmmm … that would make me want to set up a huge billboard with the full text of the letter!!!
