Product Description

Our smartest and funniest progressive writers, cartoonists and satirists have increasingly turned their attention to the right-wing zealots who clutter up our media—television, radio, books, magazines—with hysterical, bullying, personal attacks on liberals, democrats, minorities, workers, women, gays, anti-war activists and ordinary citizens who dare to object to the right’s radical agenda for our country. This reader exposes the lies and distortions of these morons and bullies—who routinely rely on made-up statistics and scare tactics to push their policies and so-called values, revealing these liars for what they are—intellectually shallow and emotionally crippled demagogues who are more interested in their personal power than in America’s future. Featuring a wonderful compilation of attacks by Michael Moore, Molly Ivins and Jim Hightower; profiles of Ann Coulter and Peggy Noonan; transcripts from debates and interviews that humiliate Savage and O’Reilly; quizzes by Paul Slansky; commentary by stand-up comedians; satire from The Onion and other websites; works by Greg Palast and Chris Floyd; and much, much more. The I Hate Ann Coulter, Bill O'Reilly, Rush Limbaugh, Michael Savage, Sean Hannity Reader is a piece of sweet revenge for the harm these mean-spirited demagogues are doing to our country and our world.

1.0 out of 5 stars One Hideous Book, June 8, 2008

By	Daddyo - See all my reviews

As I read this Book I realized that I had begun to hate this Book rather than the Conservatives that it was aimed at. Old stuff + nothing new here made this Book progressively boring. Really a struggle to finish this one. This Book seemed to try to take on too much & wound up never really accomplishing anything.

2.0 out of 5 stars A Disappointment, June 6, 2005

By	Confederate (Bethesda, MD) - See all my reviews

I read this book hoping to see some lively jousting between some of the obnoxious neocons and those they "savage" (excuse the pun) on the air. Unfortunately the humor was only an "Oh, yeah?" response that, though many times managed to hit the mark, was little more than embarrassingly defensive and bitter. The only way to succeed against people like Limbaugh and Coulter is to use their tactics. Many neocons want constructionist judges interpreting the Constitution, yet they'll produce Patriot Acts that would have the framers turning in their graves and arbitrarily suspend habeas corpus in emergencies which they themselves define.

I was hoping to smell the sweet aroma of hypocrisy in this book, yet strangely, I still sensed fear on the parts of the contributors. This will never do. Until they can make these guys (and gals) eat what they dish out, books like this will be only weak, ineffectual strikes.

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, April 20, 2006

By	Dan Curtis Fan - See all my reviews

I really thought I would like this book, but it's just not written very well. I was very disappointed and had to put it away after reading more than two thirds of it. Most high school students can write better.
