NEWAl Franken book on the way this fall!
Edited on Wed Aug-03-05 06:26 PM by Adenoid_Hynkel
preorders begin today at amazon. book is out oct 25th

this will look great on the shelf side-by-side with his last one



now we just need mo0re of out guys to get books out there. bernie goldberg, mark der fuherman, savage weiner, ed klein and zell miller have been spreading rightwing garbage all year with no one to counter them

michael moore, molly ivins, and jim hightower - where are you?

supposedly janeane garofalo's long-delayed one will be out oct 1, but i'll believe it when i see it

1. It takes a while
and look at most of the names you posted. They are not moving very many books, and when they do you often see the (+) bulk sales sign next to the title.

3. Frankin hasn't had a good book since his first one, IMO.

I did like his first book. The best part is that it had a weight chart of Rush Limbaugh.

5. It was meticulously researched
Something you can't say for the right wing freaks' books.

6. Yeah, and reading that book is what taught me
how right wing fox news is. Otherwise, I didn't pay any attention

7. I think you're wrong. "Lies and the Lying Liars" was brilliant! And it was
the #2 best seller the year it was released. Hillary Clinton's book was #1.

I'm really looking forward to this.

8. That book really did nothing for me.
I wish that Franken would do a purely comedy book. I prefer less politics and more funny from my comedians. Even better if it's a lighthearted look at politics.
