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.

The only winner, we think, of five Emmy and two Grammy Awards, Al Franken is the host of the The Al Franken Show on Air America and the bestselling author of Lies, and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them: A Fair and Balanced Look at the Right; Rush Limbaugh Is a Big Fat Idiot and Other Observations; Why Not Me?; Oh, the Things I Know!; and I’m Good Enough, I’m Smart Enough, and Doggone It, People Like Me.
