Summary: How ironic.....
Review: This is quite an entertaining thing indeed. I always love being talked down to by an smug, condiscending arse-hole who claims to attack the "evil" and "the elite." I wonder if anyone else finds it comical that he can associate himself with "the working man" while wearing a $5000 suit and saying he is "against the media and the wealthy elite" all-the-while working for, of all places, FOX news. My suggestion: buy this book, read it, and when you finish gagging/dry-heaving throw it away and stick a sharp pencil in your eye so that maybe, just maybe you can forget about it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent for the Bathroom
Review: Mr. O'Reilly's book is very helpful. I recommend you place it someplace useful like the bathroom. It will serve a duel purpose there: 1) it will scare guest into finishing their business rather quickly and 2) it will cut down on your toilet paper use. This book also can double as a fire starter. I would recommend this because this will increase the value of the book. The book can also be used to clean-up spills and wrap Christmas presents in. I caution using it as gift wrap for little children for they will be too scared to get close enough to open it. In short if you are planning on reading this book, don't. This will save you time and give you a chance to use it for its intended purpose as toilet paper.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: I have a more appropriate title for this book
Review: It should be called "The Nobody Else's Spin but O'Reilly's Zone". What I find comical about Bill O'Reilly is that he claims that his show is free of spin, then proceeds to put his spin on current events. News flash for everyone, that is what pundits do, they put their own spin on the news. He gets one more star because, love him or hate him, he does have guts and he stands up for what he believes. However, I would like him a lot better if he would come off of his claim that he is independent, and reports the news with no spin. Both claims are bogus. Don't be fooled into expecting this book to be a bipartisan account of things. It is merely conservative pundit Bill O'Reilly telling you his opinions, nothing more.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Just awful
Review: If by interview you mean asking riduclous leading questions and then not allowing them interviewee to answer, then I guess he is interviewing people.

Just like in every other book he writes, O'Reilly just comes off as a pompus jerk who thinks he is better than his reader, those who oppose him, and, well, everyone.

If you want to know my real opinion on Bill O'Reilly visit "The Best Page in the Universe." I usually don't agree with Maddox, but I do when it comes to Bill O'Reilly. (I have to warn you that the web page I mentioned contains harsh language.)

As for this book, I read it. It was painful. Even if I agreed with his ideas (and I do agree with some) his writing style is awful. He just sounds like the long-winded, babbling relative we all try to avoid during the holidays.
