Al Franken has come a long way from his SNL days and he (and Team Franken) have put together a coherent, informational and sometimes amusing rebuttal to the Right.

Great Book. Funny, well researched and it must be true or Al Franken would have been sued by now.

An excellent and well-documented book. Franken writes with detail and documents his accusations well. Good read - but nothing new for those of us who read and follow the news.

If it was not such garbage it would be fascinating. Sort of like watching a train-wreck in slow motion. I have never seen anyone squirm and sweat so much to twist facts to fit the group-think of liberal fanaticism as this.

Im a Democrat with a brain, and I intend to use it. I refuse to be spoon-fed this propaganda and blindly follow it. It reminds me of the joke, where a person jumps out of the 109 floor and every 5 seconds reminds him/her self what a grand view he/she has of the world, unobstructed and all to him/her self....

Meh. Some funny parts, but it moved too slowly to keep my attention.

A very funny and interesting read from the left. I think even conservatives will enjoy.

This is a bit dated, but the humor is still good. Al has achieved a lot since with his first close election to the MN Senate seat and then his re-election. Too bad he has to be such a straight arrow and refrain from using his gift for using satire to point out the fallacies for the Lying Liars who are still at it.

A great book or gift. Is our government truthful about current issues facing our nation? Al Franken speaks on:

Weapons of Mass Destruction
Homeland Security
Patriotism
The Bush Tax Cut
The No Spin Zone
The Environment

Are you sure that you are informed enough on these issues? If not read this book.

Even though I am a fairly apolitical conservative Dem. I still loved the book. It explained some things that I thought were true but did not know where to look for confirmation.
