Lies is probably my favorite of Franken’s books. Funny yet informative, Lies takes on the big names in conservative media and politics while remaining funny the entire time. Franken uses the right-wing tactics used to bash liberals against them. Franken balances the humor and the information perfectly in Lies. A great read for anyone who enjoys a little conservative bashing, political humor, or even just a couple of ironic and funny stories of Al Franken’s life. ( )

Something of a letdown from Rush Limbaugh is a Big, Fat Idiot. Franken forgets he's a comedian in some of these pieces. Maybe he felt that, considering his pending run for the Senate, he needed to sober up a little. In God's name, why? At least he'd be one senator who got paid money to make people laugh. His little sketch of Barbara Bush is pretty good, though. ( )

Wonderfully witty barbs thrown with a seasoned flair. This is a definitive rout of the so-called "fair and balanced" news network. Keep up the good work, Al! ( )

I have mixed feelings about the book. See, I think Al Franken is playing Lee Atwater’s game right back at the Republicans. Sure, it worked for them, but I’m not so sure it will work a second time around. And really, I’d rather lose than mimic the tactics of the unscrupulous right.

A decent book. I like any book that takes down the blowhards that are on the Fox News Channel.

Some of his stuff seems a bit like grandstanding. Especially his trip to Bob Jones University. What was the point of that? ( )

Descrição do livro

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0525947647, Hardcover)

Al Franken, "one of our savviest satirists" (People), takes on the issues, the politicians, and the pundits in one of the most anticipated books of the year.

For the first time since his own classic Rush Limbaugh Is a Big Fat Idiot and Other Observations, Al Franken trains his subversive wit directly on the contemporary political scene. Now, the "master of political humor" (Washington Times) destroys the myth of liberal bias in the media, and exposes how the Right shamelessly tries to deceive the rest of us.

No one is spared as Al uses the Right's own words against them. Not the Bush administration and their rhetorical hypocrisy. Not Ann Coulter and her specious screeds. Not the new generation of talk-radio hosts, and not Bill O'Reilly, Roger Ailes, and the entire Fox network. This is the book Al Franken fans have been waiting for (and his foes have been dreading). Timely, provocative, unfailingly honest, and always funny, Lies is sure to become the most talked about book of political humor in 2003 and beyond.
