Summary: Another nail in you right wing nutcases coffins
Review: Buy this book, espically for those of you who have your heads buried deep in your colons(Christian Right) you know who you are.
I see alot of negative reviews about this book, my guess is they are all from Karl Rove,(P.O.S.)or the illerate, which we all know the Bush camp loves the moronic and the easily led, after all, nobody seems to question how he got elected, and those who have, are probably arrested and beaten on some violation of the Patriot Act. Bush is a "'ex' drunk" I think he still drinks, how else is he so stupid, he is an "'ex' coke head" I am so sure that is a easy habit to kick, espically when you have excess millions of dollars from raping the public. Wake up morons!! get Bush the hell out of the White House, and remove your heads from your colons. Or you can do us all a favor and peacefully expire.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Must read this book!
Review: By far the most entertaining political book ever written. Whether your left or right, you will get a real charge from this book. Other than his hilarity, the thing that sets Franken apart from the other books in this genre is that he actually documents what he says and shows the truth about the people and policies he criticizes. He takes Bill O'Reilly apart in a way O'Reilly simply cannot defend. He unmasks a lot of rightwing screamers like Coulter and exposes them for exactly what the title promises -- liars. For any but the most rabid rightwingers who don't care about truth, this book is a powerful and convincing read. If you're intellectually honest, you will love this book, no matter what your politics.

Summary: TOTAL .......!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: By far the worst book i have ever read. I have never read a book full of more lies than this one, it often amazes me just how ignorant of the fact's Liberals are. According to Al's version of the truth, i guess the sky is not blue and the grass is not green and Communism is not responsible for over 100 million murders. I honestly cannot for the life of me understand why anyone would pay for this book, the only reason i read it is because it is my job. I guess the labor unions have plenty of union dues to waste on this left wing ...., i heard from a very reliable source that the union's bought over 800,000 copies of Hillary's book , they are trying to hand them out to members but they dont want them, i'm sure that the same is true about this piece of .... also.

Summary: What a Joke
Review: C'mon Al. Get a clue. Write a book about something you are familiar with.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I wanted to like this book... and I did
Review: C'mon folks, you can't help but laugh throughout this book, or at least chuckle, unless, of course, you're Ann Coulter, Bill O'Reilly, or George Bush (wait... does he read?). Like any typical episode of Saturday Night Live during its "Golden Age," some of these chapters soar; others barely get off the ground. But overall, the book is a damn good (fun?) read. Just at the point at which Franken seems slightly full of himself, he is able to pull back in a very self-deprecating way; e.g. the chapter in which he flagellates himself regarding his initially over-the-top support of the war could easily have been omitted, but Franken is willing to tweak himself as well as the radical right.
One can't help but feel a slightly guilty pleasure in seeing Franken call these radicals on their lies and false innuendos. According to Franken, the tone that has been set by Messrs. Rove and Bush is frightening. The lengths they will go to manipulate the population to the benefit of their cronies is more than frightening -- it's borderline felonious. Being able to laugh at it is actually cathartic, and for that reason, Franken has actually done us a service. Franken's conclusion, however, is that once we're done talking and laughing about the current administration's crimes, it will be time to get serious -- and vote.

Summary: Al Franken: More of an idiot than I ever could've imagined!
Review: Calling All Americans to stand up to this left-wing hypocrisy thats infiltrated our young minds!!! We shouldn't be outraged that this former SNL comic has been allowed to transcend from the ever-so intellectual and thought provoking entertainment world to the political world and hide behind his satirical shield as a means of openly affronting public figures but let us ponder this thought for a moment:
AL Franken was financed for this right-wing attack project by the prestigous Harvard Kennedy School of Law and he incorporated the help of over a dozen Harvard undergraduates and graduate students to reach this insightful, intellectual and ingenious conclusion on behalf of the political guru Bill O'Reilley: ARE U READY FOR THIS???????????????????

Bill O'Reilley lied about his hometown and once laid claim that his fromer program Inside Edition, won a prestigous Peabody award instead of another (less prestigous) award, Bill had since corrected this mistake long before Franken assembled his intellectual troops at Harvard to unmask it.

THANK GOD ( OR NOTHING) FOR FRANKEN'S INSIGHTFULNESS NOW WE CAN ALL SLEEP BETTER.

Summary: Al Franken...
Review: Can i call him a Musolini worshipper? Because that's his moniker all right.

Whoops i guess I just called him that.
Oh well.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Oh for crying out loud!
Review: Can I really be the first person to review a book which is an Amazon #1 best-seller, and which has been discussed in the elite cyber-bytes of the "Drudge Report" and which is the subject of a major Intellectual Property lawsuit? Impossible.

If I am the first, then let me say that I have not read the book. And I do not intend to. But since 99% of the Congress did not read every single page of the USA PATRIOT Act, not to mention umpty-ump other things that their crack staff will 'get to' reading just after they finish other important stuff they forgot to finish or couldn't quite get through (such as "Finnegan's Wake"), but which will pass into the law of our land, I feel perfectly qualified to review this book.

Fact of the matter is, Al Franken may be right or he may be wrong but he is a lonely man. That is, name one other person you can describe with the words "funny" and "Democrat" in the same sentence. Think about it: Dan Quayle is still a Republican and Franklin Roosevelt is hard to call funny, given the wheelchair and all. Bill Clinton is, oh never mind. I suppose the fact that it bends to the left is funny.

So Al Franken has done us a proud American service. Not that we didn't already know Bill O'Reilly was an arse. But never before has it been so articulately explained exactly why and how he is an arse. Oh, now I get it. Thanks, Al. At least I assume that's what you do in this book. But how hard can that be? O'Reilly ought to walk around with toilet paper stuffed up his nose, just for those who are too slow to catch on.

But crying out loud, Al, why waste all this ink taking these people seriously. Well, OK, let's face facts, the nutcases and numbnutzes of he right-wing media are the only fair and balanced target left for a conscientous left-winger. Our famously fumblemouthed President has been fatally misunderestimated. Regardless of what you might think of George W., he is clearly not the vacant caretaker President. No, he got hold of that army and did bold something with it. Whether it was a good thing or a bad thing, I leave to the cordial civilized discussions on freerepublic.com (and to subsequent Amazon reviewers) but it's important to note that serious issues are entirely another subject from those matters covered here in Franken's pleasant tome, which skewers only liars. Consciously mendacious people and such.

Speaking of whom, let me say that, since I didn't read the book, I especially liked the part where Ann Coulter smears chocolate all over her body. And the part where Sean Hannity dips his member in a vase of urine. Oh, that's good stuff. I can't wait to read what Franken really wrote. But who cares about the truth, really - it's all about scoring points.

And believe me, when Fox News sees the Polaroids I've got of Al Franken - at least I'm pretty sure that was him - at this slutty motel in Hoboken, plus the footage from Vegas - hah, the points will be all mine. The only thing fair and balanced in these pictures is the incredible symmetricality of the hooters on either side of Franken's schlong. Whoo-oo, and to think I only paid that windbag Poindexter $50 for these secret spy satellite photosnaps. Take that, you liberal!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fabulous, yet depressing...
Review: Can I say something new or better than the many hundreds who have already spoken? No. I just wanted to add my voice to the many... I loved this book. I wanted more. Anyone who really considers themselves a patriotic American should read this book and then come back and tell me how they could possibly vote for George Bush?

Thank you Al!

And God help us...
