Assuming you're talking about "Imperial Hubrus" I don't see how they can legally stop the Author. It was written as "Anonymous", He doesn't reveal any classified information, and it's not at all a Bush bash book in a partisan sense.

While Bush does take plenty of lumps, it's because our own (former) CIA Bin Laden top expert happens to think Bush is making repeated strategic blunders in the war on terrorisim...

And I'd agree.

I motion that all political blah blah be put on hold until January when the fishies have swam away.
For awhile I followed politics and was very vocal on these boards, now I can care less.

Its funny hearing the pres. press secr. backpedal as the press keeps asking him to comment and his refusing even though he commented plenty b/f rove's name came out.

Even if what rove did was not illegal (& I don't know how its not illegal to give someone enough info. to figure out who our spies are), shouldn't those working with our governments most secret info. be held to a standard other than if its not a crime, you can do it and come to work tom.
