Summary: Who's looking out for you?? Al Franken, that's who!!!!!!!!
Review: Not only is this book fact-based and well written, but on many occasions I found myself laughing so hard I started to cry. Right wing, left wing, Democrat, Republican, Green or Independent, it doesn't matter....read this book. If for no other reason than the comic relief.I was especially pleased that Mr. Franken rode Bill O'Reilly to the bitter end. For his pomposity alone (never mind his behavior on C-SPAN), O'Reilly deserves every barb Franken tossed his way. The fact that Al despises Ann Coulter does nothing but endear him to me further. Franken's fresh style, brutal honesty and whitty outlook on life make for a quick read that left me wanting more. Rush Limbaugh fans may not like it, but open-minded, free-thinking patriots who value honesty will relish this lampoon of the new century's UNfair and UNbalanced news media. Mr. Franken, bring on the sequel !!!

Summary: An intellectual look at the right
Review: Not only is this the funniest piece of political writing that I have read this year but it is also, by far, the smartest. In "Lies..." Al Franken dissects the arguments made by the right and exposes them for who they really are. He does this in the most respectful, diplomatic and intelligent way possible. Way to go, Mr. Franken! Job well done! For anybody interested in reading this book, I ask that you please do so. It is a refreshing eye-opener, a stark difference from all the mud-slinging and name--calling coming from the right.

Summary: Boss endorsed
Review: Not sure of the significance of it but, during this concert season, Bruce Springsteen, near the end of his shows, makes a short "non partisan" rant about how any American government, right, left, or sideways, must tell the truth about conflicts if they are going to put our young people at risk and in harms way. At his show Sunday night in Fenway Park he did that and mentioned, specifically, THIS BOOK. Good enough for me.

Summary: Written by a "comedian"???
Review: Nothing fair and balanced here. It's a lie to say that this is anything but extreme liberal biased crap, and mean spirited to boot. Read Michael Savage's The Enemy Within if you want a glimpse into what's going on in America.

Summary: Typical liberal bile
Review: Nothing new here. If Franken were intellectually honest he would point out the lies by both sides.
Rating: 
Summary: It's funny cuz it's true!
Review: Nothing vindicates Franken's book more than the type of comments I've seen here from the "America - love it or leave it" crowd. Would've given it 5 stars but the Operation Chickenhawk chapter was too long and not that entertaining.

Summary: the unadulterated truth
Review: Notice how the folks who pan the book don't refute what's in it. That's because they either didn't read the book cause they just don't like Franken or they're ninnies who have bought all the bs put out by ninnies like Limbaugh(phony and pillhead) and Ann Coulter.
Rating:
Summary: Look at the reviews
Review: Notice in these reviews that a significant number of the one-star reviews are from people who either haven't read the book, or only read the first few pages? Folks, if you must review a book, at least read the book in it's entirety before you spew a negative review. If you do not, you are really no better than the lying liars that this book is written about. You also expose yourselves for the close-minded and often cold-hearted people that often are your typical conservatives.
