id say I was stunned by the stupidity you run around to show off here, but I am not.... the title of the book is from Clinton.. I dont know if you read..
Supposedly the title come from something Bill Clinton once said - considering the pattern of lying promulgated by Mr Klein in his various publications, it does seem highly probable that ol' bubba never said such a thing.
A co-worker provided a copy of The Amateur for my perusal this past week, he believes every word of the tome, so I did a very small bit of research on some of the characters quoted in Klein's work. Then there are the multiple conservative voices who have denounced Klein because of his serial problem with truth-telling
None of the connections that I found are provided in Klein's book, instead the reader is given the impression that they are all disillusioned insiders finally pouring out their tales of Obamian hypocrisy

Janet Maslin review of the book
“The Amateur” by Edward Klein is a book about an inept, arrogant ideologue who maintains an absurdly high opinion of his own talents even as he blatantly fails to achieve his goals. Oh, and President Obama is in this book too.
Just a couple of easily verifiable errors in The Amateur, I'm sure I could find more as these took about five minutes on the internets
In a section attacking Obama for his June 2009 speech in Cairo, Klein complains that Obama "made no mention of how existing policies in the Arab world discriminated against women." But Obama did just that, specifically highlighting "women's rights" and saying that a "woman who is denied an education is denied equality."
In 2010, Klein writes that Obama insulted Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu by leaving a meeting to have supper with his wife and daughters - Only problem with story, Michelle and the girls weren't in the White House that night.
When Klein was doing the book tour thing for his previous tabloid style publication that attacked Hillary Clinton, even Bill O'Reilly refused to have him on his show. The ever so 'librul' Michael Savage said "
I think that new book that came out sucks. I think it's an outrage that somebody would publish a book saying that Bill Clinton raped Hillary. I think it's disgusting, number one. And, number two, I think anybody who makes that a show topic should quit the business of talk radio.
