Summary: Blaahh
Review: God awful, full of half truths. I wasted my money buying this book. I wish I bought Bill O'Reilly's book first, he is looking out for me. Al Franken is after money only, pure and simple.

Summary: Kidding on the Square
Review: God bless you, Al Franken! I haven't laughed so hard while reading a book since "The Bridges of Madison County".
Al takes the radical right to task, skewering Ann Coulter, Bill O'Reilly, and the Bush White House by employing two vastly underused weapons of mass destruction: LOGIC and TRUTH.I am a professional researcher, and it's my job to verify facts and provide accurate and reliable information. Al and his able assistants (aka TeamFranken) are spot on in reporting on the shoddiness of Coulter's "footnoting", the claims of Peabody(no)Polk(wrong) award "winning"(okay not really) O'Reilly and the outright lies and shady deals of the Bush administration. But it is the chapters on Paul Wellstone's memorial service and the White House Press Corps Dinner that make this book worth every penny. I dare you not to cry in frustration at the twisting of a heart-felt tribute to a decent man, his family and friends by the press (shame on you all!) and cry tears of joy when Franken confronts Paul Wolfowitz at the Press Corps dinner. Paul's succinct, if rude, reply to Al's comment about Clinton's military winning Bush's war is priceless. Buy this book in hardcover! It's worth it! Al, I forgive you for "Stuart Saves His Family." YOU ROCK!

Summary: Al Franken for President!
Review: God bless you, Al Franken. I rarely laugh out loud when reading a book, but Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them had me in stitches. In fact, I don't think I've laughed this hard since Franken's Rush Limbaugh is a Big Fat Idiot. His beginning chapters on Ann Coulter are incredulous and hilarious. It's amazing how that woman ever got any air time nor a book deal. His chapter on Fox News Network's stranglehold of the conservative media is downright disturbing. In truth, this book should be required reading for liberals as well as ultra-conservatives. It will make you think. I admit that I'm more of a liberal though I do support conservative issues. However, after reading this book, i'm ready to jump headfirst towards the left.

Summary: God Save America
Review: God Save American from these god-less McCarthy worshiping, anti-american conservatives set out to destroy our country. And thank God for Al Franken ya'll.
Rating:
Summary: Good for liberals, bad for conservatives!
Review: God told Al Franken to write this book. Granted it didn't arrive on clay tablets, but Franken does recount his conversation with God to write the book, which is a pretty funny bit.
Whether or not you find the rest of the book funny will obviously depend on 1) your political views 2) your level of humor (i.e. do you like Al Franken or not?) and 3) your religious views.
Nice to see that Al Franken won the lawsuit brought against him by Fox News over the usage of "Fair and Balanced" in the book's subtitle.
Rating:
Summary: Good work. Excellent facts
Review: Good book, although not as funny as "Rush Limbaugh is..." Well researched. Point of view spot on. And the message needs to be heard. Anyone who believes that this is counterfactual probably a) doesn't read much; b) hasn't done much research themselves; c) is reacting emotionally. Nice work, Al.

Summary: Great book; very insightful.

Summary: Worthless garbage from a "real" idiot
Review: Good God, what does a SNL flunky who knows nothing about politics (or how to keep a job for that matter) get off in analyzing the right (or left for that matter). Another case where a washed up semi-celeb is trying to cash in in an area where he/she has no business being.

Summary: Franken forges that Wolfowitz said WMD were only"convenient"
Review: Good golly. Guess the laudable David Kay's only interim report will already confirm documentary evidence--along with testimony from Iraqi scientists--that Iraq was developing WMDs, as Kay continues to establish the proof positive. This has been ANOTHER episode of Franken being unmasked, in his 'Lying Lies, terrifyingly told by Filthy, Friggin Franken'!!
