Title: This was my shortest reading ever
Product review: I borrowed the book from the library last week and started reading. Chapter 1 is about How I Nearly Singlehandedly Won the Elections for John Kerry. Then Mr. Franken proceeds to debate the deep philosophical question Does Bush Have a Mandate to Conduct His Policies? According to Franken himself, everybody on both right and left agrees that, yes, he has (Bush won 51 percent majority of the popular votes), but not so Franken. Well, perhaps Bush won a mandate to conduct Kerry's policies, you wonder. On the bottom of page 27 Franken quotes Cheney as having said some astonishing things. But, oops, on page 28 he admits, in a footnote, that he had made up those things, Cheney had never said them. At this point I closed the book and promptly returned it to the library. Sorry, Mr. Franken, if this is your merchandise, I am not buying.
