It is a great gift idea for all the Bush-haters. Funny and well written, it was a hillarious stocking stuffer for my boyfriend.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quick....buy this book!, January 12, 2009

By	Jon Hunt "musician, teacher" (Old Greenwich, Ct. USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

The Bush years are just about to end, and this book.....a great way to look at this administration's pitiful conduct... is a must read. There's something here for everyone! I particularly enjoyed the Bush jokes which take up the middle chapters but it also serves as a reminder of how many people (well, all of us really) and how many things Bush has hurt.

It's amazing that there are so many wonderful contributions to help us rid ourselves of these ghastly eight years. Just as you nod your head in agreement in each chapter a little voice says, "wait...there's more!"
These delightful 120 pages should be read by anyone who has suffered this fool un-gladly but awaits the promise of hope for better things to come.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wow..., October 29, 2008

By	S. F. Stabile (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I didn't think I had any laughter left in regards to our president, but Mr. Stone has filled his book with not only keen and accurate insights but also relentless humor. I received this book as a gift and after reading it quickly ordered the author's other Bush book, and his Cheney book as well. I'm hopeful for an Obama victory, though I admit that if McCain were to win, I'd at least look forward to Mr. Stone's future books on that comical ticket. I highly recommend this book!
