Title: Desert Island
Review: Is there anybody else out there who just wishes Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, Michael Moore, and Al Franken would go to a deserted island somewhere and wait for our phone call to return?Anybody else weary of the political discourse being cheapened, compelling debates being marginalized, and bi-polar views of Left vs. Right being promoted? The trouble with a book like Franken's (and Coulter's) is that it preaches to the choir of those who live out their political lives through bumper stickers and mind-numbing, sound-bite driven cable TV political shows that invite extreme or bombastic guests just for the spectacle of it all. Is it any surprise that Americans are apathetic toward the political process when it's presented like this? Franken, like Michael Moore, is probably not a big fan of American-style global capitalism, but his first royalty check should remind him that he is not above sharing its spoils.
