Summary: How Would Al Know the Difference?
Review: messr.al had better clean up his own act before he calls others liars. He has been rebutted on most of his books and thoroughly - when he quotes FAIR, you know you are being hoodwinked. Was amazed at the good reviews from the so-called editorials. Gave me great insight into the "vast liberal left wing". Point being, you can read anything by this guy and know that it is personally made up by him and put forth as gospel truth. Best advice, save your money, buy a used Penneys' catalog, far more interesting than this bilge.

Summary: A Liar writing more lies!!!!!!!!!
Review: Michael Moore and Franken are brothers who were given up for adoption at birth. They are both outright liars who will say anything to advance their liberal looney agenda.

Summary: The only one lying is Franken
Review: Mixed of truths and out right lies make up the bulk of this book.
Don't waste your time. Does anyone have any flipflops?

Summary: True lies?
Review: More blind fools clinging to the sinking liberal lifeboat, rowed in circles by whiny third-rate comic Al Franken. I'm actually glad there are still liberals in the world...it increases the amount of people available to cut my lawn. For those so convinced that everything conservative is bad, I submit that the liberal policy of fostering generation after generation of dependent sychophants relying on government programs, handouts and "entitlements" is more evil by far. Wake up and get a job.

Summary: A relief....
Review: More disturbing than anything in this book are the comments left by reviewers! You can see how the president's policy of "being a uniter and not a divider" is working and its nice to see the thoughtful and tolerant atmosphere he has created!I've concluded the reason Franken's liberal communist pinko tripe consitently finds its way to the best seller list is, he has so little competition. Everywhere you look you see conservatives and ultra-conservatives. But the only other liberal is that Michael Moore guy--the one who gave the speech saying the president's weapons of mass destruction argument was "ficticious".

Summary: AWFUL!
Review: More libreal spin! Al Franken is a politcal hack. He is just like the rest of the Democrats who are bitter over the fact that the American people like President Bush. It's books like this that have been keeping the Democrats from winning any elections lately. Al Franken and Michael Moore should jump off a cliff together...and they can take Ted Kennedy and John Kerry with them! (and by the way, the Clintons could write the book on lying...don't be such a hypocrite Franken!)

Summary: Al Franken - Still Good For A Little Comic Relief
Review: More than 50 copies of this book now available for REsale on
Amazon.com says it all: even the lefties can't wait to dump it.
That this book is not a "keeper" (or even a pass-around) speaks
volumes for Franken's "fair and balanced" viewpoint. The only
lying liars are Franken and HIS cronies who milk the system from
a position of media elite; then whine about its "inequities."
Back in the 70s, Franken's work on Saturday Night Live rarely
failed to bring some humor to the dark days of Jimmy Carter.
It's good to see he's still writing comedy; this one is pure
fiction.

Summary: Please stop
Review: Most authors need credentials of expertise before they are published; why does this time-honored tradition not extend to Hollywood types? Franken wasn't funny on SNL, and he is not funny here, no matter how desperately he tries. He obviously considers himself a political pundit, but he only comes across as a fool. Since he considers himself to be so erudite, he should run for office, get himself elected, and fix everything...he would likely fare as well as Gary Coleman did in our California recall...

Summary: Can be taken in large doses.
Review: Most books on current politics, if they can be taken at all, are best taken in VERY small doses, sometimes less than a full chapter per day. Franken's book, however, is one you can sit and read for extended periods without becoming ill. Unlike Nader's pet doctrinaire-leftist toady, Michael Moore, Al Franken is no extremist, and unlike Moore's lame attempts at humor, Franken's jokes are actually funny. Franken never once spouts Socialist or doctrinaire-leftist diatribes, and never once characterizes Clinton or Gore as a Republican in a cheap suit. Instead, he uses dead-on facts, humor, and the occasional piece of illustrative fiction (including an entire chapter taking the form of a comic book) to skewer targets ranging from President Bush and his cronies to Bob Jones University. My one issue of accuracy was in Franken's characterization of Coulter as having the personality of a dominatrix. I've met a dominatrix (thankfully not professionally!), and that characterization is grossly unfair. To dominatrixes. Buy this, and buy Conason's "Big Lies," and Brock's "Blinded by the Right," but avoid Michael Moore the way you avoid his fellow (if diametrically opposite) lunatics, Coulter and Hannity!
