| Mr. Franken and his research
team did a terrific job of digging up information and clearly documenting
it. They receive an A+ for that. Some of the humor, however, I found vulgar and off-putting. I wanted a book that I could hand to my conservative friends and religious relatives and say "See, the progressives have valid points in their arguments too" but I couldn't because I knew the message would be lost in the delivery. So, this is a great book to feel good about being left-leaning and excellent as a reference tool, but don't expect to hand it to a conservative and win them over to your way of thinking any more than your reading their fave Ann Coulter book would win you over to the hard right. Odds are, your right-leaning friends will never get past Al's language and attitude, so enjoy the old "one-two" he gives to the right, then memorize the facts he presents and deliver them to your friends yourself.
