Obama's $500,000 book bonanza

Mr. Obama approved the $500,000 advance on Jan. 15. The advance is against royalties under a deal with Crown Publishing, a division of Random House. The project calls for an abridged version of his book "Dreams From My Father" for middle-school-aged children, according to the disclosure.

Obama gets half a million in advance, then spends billions on increasing education spending.  I'm sure schools will be happy to buy his books with some of that $78 B for "Education and Training" they're getting from the "stimulus" plan.  Remember, it's all for the children.
