Hardcover. First edition. First printing [stated]. Glued binding. Paper over boards. With dust jacket. [8], 484, [4] p. Illustrations, black & white. Notes. Index. White House speechwriter Marc Thiessen was locked in a secure room and given access to the most sensitive intelligence when he was tasked to write President George W.… Bush's 2006 speech explaining the CIA's interrogation program and why Congress should authorize it. Few know more about these CIA operations than Thiessen, and in his new book, Courting Disaster, he documents just how effective the CIA's interrogations were in foiling attacks on America, penetrating al-Qaeda's high command, and providing our military with actionable intelligence. Thiessen also shows how reckless President Obama has been in shutting down the CIA's program and releasing secret documents that have aided our enemies. Courting Disaster proves: How the CIA program thwarted specific deadly attacks against the U.S. Why "enhanced interrogation" was not torture by any reasonable legal or moral standard How the information gained by "enhanced interrogation" could not have been acquired any other way How President Obama's actions since taking office have left America much more vulnerable to attack In chilling detail, Thiessen reveals how close the terrorists came to striking again, how intelligence gained from "enhanced interrogation" repeatedly stymied their plots, and how President Obama's dismantling of this CIA program is inviting disaster for America. From Wikipedia: "Marc A. Thiessen (born 1967) is an American author, columnist and political commentator, who served as a speechwriter for United States President George W. Bush (2004 2009) and Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld (2001 2004). Thiessen's articles have appeared in the Los Angeles Times, National Review, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, The Weekly Standard, USA Today and other publications. He has also appeared on Fox News, CNN, NPR, and other media outlets. In its January 11, 2010 issue, The Daily Telegraph named Thiessen number 97 of the "100 Most Influential Conservatives in America". Thiessen grew up in Upper East Side in Manhattan, where both his parents were doctors and "left-of-center liberal Democrat types." His mother grew up in Poland and fought as a teenager in the Warsaw Uprising, a military struggle in which his grandfather died. Thiessen is a graduate of the Taft School (1985), a private prep school in Connecticut. He graduated from Vassar College (BA in 1989) and completed post-graduate studies at the Naval War College. Thiessen has worked in Washington for many years, starting with five years at Black, Manafort, Stone and Kelly. He spent six years (1995 2001) on Capitol Hill as spokesman and senior policy advisor to Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Jesse Helms (R-NC). He joined the Bush administration as Chief Speechwriter for Donald Rumsfeld in 2001, then moved to Bush's speechwriting team in 2004. In February 2008, he became chief speechwriter when William McGurn resigned. In March 2009, Thiessen and Peter Schweizer opened Oval Office Writers LLC. Thiessen is a visiting fellow at the Hoover Institution. He is also a columnist for The Washington Post, starting March 2010. Thiessen's first book, Courting Disaster: How the CIA Kept America Safe and How Barack Obama Is Inviting the Next Attack, was published by Regnery Publishing in January 2010. In the book he argued that the enhanced interrogation techniques used by the CIA, which the Obama administration has characterized as torture, are not torture by any reasonable legal or moral standard and "were not only effective, but lawful and morally just". The book was endorsed by the former Vice President Dick Cheney, former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, [6] and former Attorney General Michael Mukasey. It reached the No. 9 spot on the New York Times Best Sellers list for hardcover nonfiction in February 2010. Matthew Alexander, a former military interrogator and author of How to Break a T.
