America

No Problems
Just like a
book
from Barnes & Noble. Perfect Quality. No issues. No complaints. Delivered before it was supposed to be and arrived early. Great!
I couldn't stop laughing
Fantastic
book
! I'm a huge fan of
Jon
Stewart
(I hope he reads this!!).
The professor's comments were interesting, necessary, but could have been more 'in line' with the text, that is, more humorous. Sometimes they were too long, in my opinion.
Love the picture on the cover too. Overall, this book must be read.
You will not regret it.
I'll make it quick. It is a
book
, which makes you at least giggle, or laugh aloud from the first to the last page. It is a great satiric masterpiece, on the
america
n policy, of the new century !!! Do not forget to buy two dice. That is the only thing NOT included in this book. Have fun.

Reminds me of why I used to like the Daily Show
This
book
is hilarious satire, and it reminds me of why I used to love the
Daily
Show
. The show always did a great job of satirizing current events, and this book picks up where the show left off, satirizing things that don't fall so neatly into the "current events" category. It is probably funnier if you have at least some knowledge of
America
n and World history, because you just won't get some of the jokes if you don't. Also, I'd like to add that you can enjoy this book even if you aren't a left-leaner, because it was written before the 2004 election - in other words, before
Jon
Stewart
sold out his comedic integrity for partisanship and changed his show from picking on America to picking on Republicans.

Too contrived
The
book
has its moments , but overall the humor is too contrived. The jokes are obvious and predictable. I think the writers at The Onion do a much better job of political satire/humour. You should read "Our Dumb Century" which is far more humorous and insightful.
