Summary: These reviews are GREAT!
Review: Writing as one who as both read this book and ventured down the line of reading the books from the right (Coulter, O'Lielly, etc al) I'd have to say I really enjoy skimming through some of these reviews.People who review the reviews, do us a favor and write a comment here if you've read the book. Otherwise go get a Blog somewhere and post you tripe there. My opinion on the book: Someone said it before and I'll reiterate the point, it's not as funny as his book on Rush Limp-a-doodle. It does have its moments, though. Personally, I found it clear and truthful with minimal zeal (which is something you certainly can't attribute to the books from the "right"). It's a fast and thoroughly enjoyable read unless you're completely blinded by the rightwing media and all of its hyperbole (which is to say, you'd probably have the same reaction to documented facts that some of these rabid dogs have posted here). Really brings to light the fact that Pox news is nothing more than an overproduced, 24/7 rendition of the Jerry Springer Show. So to those of you enjoy tabloid, follow-the-sheep press, this will probably aggravate you into original thought. The "conservative" ilk should just stay with absorbing Government Press releases and Pox broadcasts (seeing as though media relations are only dealt with on Pox these days) for disinformation and not waste their powers on alternate perspectives - it could be damaging (truth hurts and seeing true journalistic verve can ultimately be your undoing). ;) Keep up the informative reviews!

Summary: Just political propaganda
Review: Written for those that are incapable of independant thinking. The "facts" are not supported in any research I did but I suppose that if you believe in the tooth fairy and Easter bunny then this is the book for you. Not worth the read. Would rather clean out my garage.

Review: WWW.FRANKENLIES.COM ... Judge for yourself who is telling the truth ... Will Franken issue an apology or retraction now that Bill O'Reilly has exhibited the actual deed / mortgage from his boyhood home, and it clearly says, "Levittown, New York"?

Review: www.frankenlies.com ... Maybe you heard about the 14 Harvard researchers and assumed Al had all his facts in check. Well, the results might surprise you. www.frankenlies.com

Review: www.frankenlies.com ... Some people just read what they want to believe, but what about the facts? Franken's facts have been thoroughly researched - REALLY researched - and, despite 14 Harvard buddies, the results may disappoint devoted Franken followers. The truth hurts, y'know? Make up your own mind. Don't let Franken do it for you. www.frankenlies.com

Summary: Often silly, and terrific
Review: Yeah, it's brimming with sarcasm and that uniquely Frankenish quasi-self-regard. It's also impressively well-researched, convincing, and compelling. Most of all it spills over with an impassioned indignation that's a balm to the soul of anyone who agrees that our nation is up to its nostrils in mesquite-flavored mendacity. Great book. Buy six. Helluva stocking stuffer.

Summary: Bless his heart; he's really just sad and pathetic.
Review: Years ago, Al's sophomoric humor appealed to me at some level. But, then I stopped partying every other night, graduated from college, and got a job. Now, bless his heart, Al's appeal is limited; however, not totally non-existent. I mean, you've got to admit that mug of his is still pretty funny. Oh yeah, the book. Let's see...all the words seemed to be spelled correctly (I didn't check every single one, however) and he did seem to have a handle on the grammar. Uhmm...I loved the cover. Yes, yes, the cover was just dandy; you know how I love that mug of his. And, let me think...oh, yeah...the pages were numbered just the right way and the book seemed to have sturdy binding. I'd expand my comments to include my thoughts on the content of the book, but my nine-year-old son just reminded me that that if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all. He's right, of course, and I've already said too much.

Summary: Stuart Smalley saves the Left
Review: Yes the book leans left but it's funny, really funny, and sadly very well supported. Overall I loved it and I highly recommend it. On the down side I personally found a few areas dry but they usually added integrity. Also, lacking decades of experience as a political satirist and not being enrolled in Harvard's Kennedy School of Govt, I suspect I missed some implicit humor. And of course don't buy the book if you don't appreciate (or can't comprehend) irony and sarcasm. If you find that "Mr. Franken's description of the world does not come close to reality" or that Al's stuff "is little more than leftist disinformation and drivel" then as Al warns in the intro, you've just missed a hilarious joke.
