OMG! I have read 75 pages of Jon Stewart's "America" -too FUNNY
Edited on Sun Sep-26-04 07:32 AM by underpants
I have to highly recommend this. I am laughing literally in each paragraph. My wife was reading the Kitty Kelley book yesterday (it was READIN' day) and I was reading this and watching football-I am not sure who won the 'Bama Arkansas game but I think it was the Razorbacks-I WAS THAT INTO IT!

Definitely a left leaning, or at least BS calling, book but there is something in there for everybody.

Like I said it is a laugh out loud almost every paragraph but here are just a few examples.

The 17th and 18th Centuries:Enlightening Strikes

...,when through the darkness emerged the light that would be its salvation:Reason. It began slowly, "Hey what if we stopped dumping the corpses in the drinking water and see if that makes a difference to our health?"...

And so on. The Meet Your Lobbyists page is just flat out hilarious.

I HIGHLY recommend this either now or as a Christmas gift.

2. A president freely chosen from a wide-open field of two men every 4 years,
That section includes a representative picture of a Caveman (John Matuszak)

Like I said lots of laughs.

4. John Stewart is just so instinctively sharp, smart, witty that he
sends all the dull-witted "true journalists" screaming in rage..... Anyone see Stewart's interview with Koppel at the DNC a few weeks back? Stewart clearly got under O'liely's skin too. They just can't stand facing the fact that Stewart is so smart that he can ridiculte them without them even realizing--until it is too late!
