CD Reviews

Major disappointment

Howard Lee | Miami, Florida USA | 12/26/2008

(1 out of 5 stars)

"I expected to hear full speeches. It consists of nothing more than 30 second to 60 second sound bites...a major disappointment. I'm stuck with it because it was a gift. The producers should be ashamed of themselves...a rip off."
