The Wall Street Journal reports today on a new book called This Moment on Earth co-authored by the Will and Ariel Durant of our time — John and Teresa Heinz Kerry. The book, according to its publisher, “combines intensive research with keenly observed personal experiences to present a portrait of Americans devoted to the natural diversity and spectacular uniqueness of our country.”

Quoth Kerry to the Journal: “Teresa and I are writing this book because we share a sense of urgency about the need to reinvigorate grassroots action which takes these [environmental] concerns into the ballot box.”

According to unconfirmed reports, U.S. military interrogators will read the book relentlessly to Gitmo prisoners until they agree to convert to Judaism — which they expect will happen around page 14.
