Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent Disembowlment Of An Ego Manic
Review: Franken uses Rush's own techniques (remember when Rush would make fun of a drawf ... for his height?) against him and it works like a charm.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Do dittoheads comprehend satire?
Review: It's hilarious to see Limbaugh skewered by his own method (resorting to name-calling), and equally hilarious to read the comments of those who just can't seem to figure that out. I particularly enjoyed the conversations with RL's fact-checker("easiest job in America")... Although it seems most people already know how they feel about Limbaugh and his ilk, this book would make a great litmus test.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A hilarious collection of political essays
Review: Let this book stand as evidence that Al Franken is one of the funniest men in America. His incredible wit and political knowledge combine to create one incredible book. Everyone should read this book.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: This Book Was Hilarious
Review: This book was hilarious!! Everthing in this book was great, well almost everything. The one thing that got old fast were the overuse of Limbaugh is fat jokes. In fact, they were the only thing that kept this book , full of hilarious jokes and great insight into what is wrong with the republican party, from being the funniest book of all time.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: He's just not funny!
Review: Al Franken's career, mediocre though it was, peaked quite some time ago, and Al is now relegated to the position of court jester for the Clinton administration. If you are looking for political satire, delivered with wit, you will be sadly disappointed. Al Franken is about as subtle and witty as Beavis and Butthead, and even less interesting, if possible.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A laugh riot from cover to cover, even the Index!!
Review: Franken delivers the fat mans lies with deadly accuracy at the funny bone.Rush and the right-wingers supply the material, and Franken brings it home.Truly a very funny read for anyone who isn't brainwashed by Rush, which is his fans, of course.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Perfect for the Headphones! You'll Laugh Out Loud!
Review: I listened to the book on tape. I wish I had read the book but found the tape at the library. I haven't laughed so hard in years! Not all that much is aimed at Limbaugh, but intelligent listeners will be cracking up! I'm recommending this book to my 81-year-old father.

Here's the clincher: I actually raced out of the house to exercise on my bike so I could keep listening to the tapes. Now THAT is an endorsement!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very funny and entertaining.
Review: This is definately comedy at it's best. Only Al Franken could think up things like this. I enjoyed every word. UNFORTUNATELY, IT IS VERY FAKE AND MOST OF IT IS NOT TRUE.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hysterical! Sharp, witty and timely. Excellent read!
Review: I love this book! While a large part of it is satirical there are also many scary facts blended throughout with their sources listed so that I could do some research on my own to find out more. Now I keep the book handy to page through on a regular basis for a good laugh.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A very delightful and entertaining tome.
Review: I found Mr. Franken's book very entertaining, although very one sided, but I guess that was the point. There were several times when I actually found myself laughing out loud at his charecterisation of members of the Republican Party. And although the title of the book would suggest Rush Limbaugh would incur the full rath of Al's pen, he spent very little time "slamming" the rotund talk show host. A lot of time was spent talking about Republicans in general and the political landscape of 1995-96.

I also gained new insight as to Al Franken as a person. I did not know, for example, that he was a Harvard grad. He also appears to have a firm grasp on current events and politics. More so than you would expect from an SNL'r not Dennis Miller.

Overall, the book is definitely worth the time and an easy read. I rated it at 4 stars. If you are a Republican or conservative (not that the 2 are mutually synonomous), then you'll probably give it a "-6".
