Maintaining sanity by doing an insane thing
Jeni Decker and Kat Nove have had enough of the insanity of cable news and politics. Last October they snapped and decided if Congress and "news" organizations won't do their jobs, these two writers will do it for them. They wrote Waiting for Karl Rove and called everyone from Rove to Geraldo out on their BS. Imagine their surprise when they read a conservative's review on Amazon. Not only did this person pay money for a book written by two liberal satirists, she recommended that everyone read it because it's so damn funny. Open-minded conservatives are rare and wonderful human beings. Jeni and Kat would be grateful if you'd check out the website and go over to Amazon to read the first two chapters. Writing the book was cheap therapy for them, but now that Donald Trump has entered the picture, they're forced to write a sequel.

1. It is not available on Kindle..my birthday wish for myself...
I put it on my wish list..and will purchase it either when it comes out on Kindle or it warms up in Detroit..whichever comes first...as I will sit outside to read this book and feel like I am at the beach!

I even reviewed it 'somewhat'...thanks for the heads up..and if you get an affiliate commission, PM me to let me know if I need to purchase directly from your blog, or if adding it to my wish list and purchasing latter is the same?

3. Kindle
Right now it's only available on Amazon as a paperback. It was up on Kindle, but once Karl Rove started following us on Twitter (WaitingforKRove) we decided he HAS to pay for a paperback if he wants to know what we wrote about him. Same goes for O'Reilly, Rivera, Beck, Malkin, Coulter, Limbaugh, etc. Once they are all properly outraged, we'll put it back up on Kindle.

Thanks for taking the time to check it out and the review on Amazon!

7. Not only cheap therapy...
...but also a source of Vitamin D. Is there anything this book can't do?

Thanks! Hope you enjoy it!

9. We appreciate it!
Hey, that was a nice thing to do. We're planning on some contests to give away posters and maybe even copies of the book if we can afford to buy them. True short story. Kat doesn't have a copy yet! Ha! But because you're so nice, you're already a winner! (Caveat emptor.) If you choose to accept your extremely free gift, you will be featured (possibly a cameo) in the sequel which we're starting to work on. And if you have read more than three chapters, you might carefully consider your response.

Thanks again. You made our day.

Kat & Jeni
