BuzzFlash.com's Review (excerpt)

Please note that this is only for MP3-CD compatible players.

From the Publisher:

"Al Franken is "the perfect guy to write a book attacking America's nasty, mean, vicious right-wing pols, pundits and preachers," wrote The Washington Post in its review of Lies. "But his book barely scratches the surface of the Bush administration's well-documented mendacity... Looks like Franken will have plenty of material for a sequel." The Republicans won the White House and Congress in November. In Fall 2005, Al Franken strikes back. His new book picks up where Lies and The Al Franken Show leave off. Armed with an arsenal of facts and research (and comedy!), Al is ready to take the fight to the Bush administration and their right-wing cronies. Intelligent, insightful, inspiring, and laugh-out-loud funny, Al's hard-hitting work of political satire is poised to become the most talked about book of the year."

From Publishers Weekly:

Starred Review. Franken and his research team return to what they do best: detailing allegations and accusations being spread by right-wing pundits and then debunking them point-by-point. While numerous tomes have taken on the administration's creative definition of "facts," few have the massive readership of satirist Franken or his wickedly sly sense of humor. In many ways, the unabridged audio is superior to the bound book because listeners can enjoy Franken's deadpan comedic delivery. Another audio bonus is that rather than Franken reading the text he's about to redress, he provides the actual soundclips so listeners can hear George W. stumble over his words, Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh bluster and Zell Miller contradict himself. Franken is such an uncanny mimic that listeners will find it hard to tell which Karl Rove and Dick Cheney sound bites are real and which are Franken's dead-on impersonations. Listeners will find Franken's directness refreshing (he calls Bush an "utterly shameless liar" and says his administration is "fixing the intelligence and facts around the policy."). The penultimate chapter is Franken's stirring call to arms to "throw these guys out in 2006." This is essential listening for those who want ammunition to fight to preserve their human rights.

From an online reviewer:

"Insightful and enlightening with regard to Bush's disastrous policies at home and abroad. The facts check here, unlike those of his counterparts at Faux News. The book is also chock full of Franken's ingenious brand of sarcasm. If the current political discourse between left and right can be couched in terms of humor versus hate speak, it seems humor wins here -- hands down. Thank you, Senator Al Franken!"
