Comedian Garofalo writes book on politics
NEW YORK (AP) — Janeane Garofalo, the comedian and political activist, is taking her message to the bookstores
For Those About to Salute, We Will Rock You, a collection of political essays, is scheduled to come out this fall.
"The book is like Susan Sontag meets The Onion, but not. ... I just wish it were like that," Garofalo said in statement released Tuesday by her publisher, Simon & Schuster.
Garofalo, a leading opponent of the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq, is focusing her book on "the abuse of power in finance; the state of our national consciousness; the failures of the Bush administration; and the upcoming presidential election," according to Simon & Schuster.
