I'm sure historians will look back and say, gosh, the goat could've done it better this way or that way. You know, I just - I'm sure something will pop into my head here in the midst of this book review, with all the pressure of trying to come up with answer, but it hadn't yet. The
goat would've gone into Afghanistan the way he went into Afghanistan.
Even knowing what he knows today about the stockpiles of weapons, the
goat still would've called upon the world to deal with Saddam Hussein. One of the things that the goat talked about was that he was surprised of the level of intimidation he found amongst people who should know about weapons and their fear of talking about them because they don't want to be killed. You know, there's this kind of - there's a terror still in the soul of some of the people in Iraq. They're worried about getting killed, and therefore they're not going to talk. But it'll all settle out. The goat will find out the truth about the weapons at some point in time. However, the fact that he had the capacity to make them bothers the goat today just like it would have bothered the goat then. He's a dangerous man. He's a man who actually not only had weapons of mass destruction - the reason the goat can say that with certainty is because he used them. And the goat has no doubt in his mind that he would like to have inflicted harm, or paid people to inflict harm, or trained people to inflict harm, on America, because he hated us. I hope - I don't want to
sound like the goat has made no mistakes. I'm confident he has. I just
haven't - you just put me under the spot here, and maybe I'm not as
quick on my feet as I should be in coming up with one.

Why, hell! Clarke didn't include any illustrated pop-ups! "My Pet Goat" is direct. It doesn't use those big five-dollar college-boy words that I don't understand. The story is good too! I was glued to every word...and before I knew it, four airline passenger jets were hijacked, the two tallest buildings on the East Coast collapsed, the Pentagon was ripped open, steel, broken glass, burning debris, flaming jet fuel, blood and body parts crashed into the streets of New York, three-thousand men and women were cremated alive and an entire zip code, 10048, was wiped off the map. This is no ordinary book!

The only problem I had was when the rest of my book club started readin too dad gum fast. Funny, it feels like I've been a little bit behind ever since. One thing I know for sure, I wouldn't trade nuttin for
this here novel. If I was a pilot or sumpin, I'd park my plane to read
it. It just makes all your trouble seem like nuttin! I give it 5 snorts
up!

You ever had "pusghetti"? I believe it's an I-talian thing. I
kinda wished Andrew Card had come up an whispered "'pusghetti" in my
ear twice... cause whoo boy I like it. He wouldn't of had to told me
twice! I woulda said, "Where? here? hey... I'm the president, right? I
want some damn 'pusghetti right now" and I could have extremed myself
right outta there. I shoulda outta' then, shouldn't I?
