F*U*B*A*R: America’s Right Wing Nightmare
By Sam Seder & Stephen Sherrill; 2006

Hilarious account of today’s situation in the United States. This would be the best comedy if the situation of the US weren’t so seriously in danger. One can, with the best of optimism, hope that the outcome will be good, but it is clear that it will not happen if people don’t react! The virtue of the book is making such a comic point of the ridiculous posture of the ideologues in the right wing.
