4.0 out of 5 stars The punster Guru is back!, October 23, 2005

This review is from: Swami for Precedent (Paperback)

Not as funny as his previous books, this one is angrier, more in earnest, and has a darker overall tone. The Swami is pissed off at J.W.B. and what's happening in America, and he let's us know that in no uncertain terms. Unfortunately, some of the levity and subtlety of humor is gone, and some of the puns a a little contrived. Still a worthwhile read though.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Remedy for Bushistaism, March 7, 2005

This review is from: Swami for Precedent (Paperback)

This is a brilliant, entertaining, enlightening, and empowering book on everything you need to know about American politics but Fox News will never tell you. It is a slow read because you will have numerous uncontrollable fits of belly laughter. Then your mind will go off wondering how does this guy come up with such loaded questions and statements. Then you realize that he must have been loaded when he was writing the book.

This book raise your sense of humor from the dead if your are feeling very blue over all those red states going for Bush. But more importantly, Swami B articulates very clearly everything we need to know about the state of American politics from a progressive and practical perspective.

"Swami For Precedent" is the Bible for spiritual political activists for the next four years Bushista America and how we can change that. His research is impeccable and gives you all the pertinent data for a spontaneous debate with a Bushbacker that will confound his or her cherished Fox News pundits. Here is the book that shut up even Bill O'Reilly.

"Swami For Precedent" is more meaningful now than ever as we all have much to do together to change the polarized political climate and the regressive direction of America under George W. Bush & Co. We were born for these times and Steve's book is the roadmap of what we can and must do to take our country back from the Religious Right to its Spiritually Radical Center.

5.0 out of 5 stars Electile Dysfunction Puts it Mildly, May 29, 2006

This review is from: Swami for Precedent (Paperback)

I did not get to read this till way after the election and for that I am glad. This Swami is brilliant with word play and has me laughing out loud on almost every page (no easy feat). Also beneath the phenomenal humor is a sad truth, we have had out country stolen and we don't seem to know it (by the outcome of the election this is obvious). You don't need to know politics or care who is doing what, you need to like laughter, genius and living on this planet! I bought all of his books and am I glad! If laughter is the best medicine I am HEALED!
