Title: Great job at discrediting liars, but...
Review: While Al Franken is doing what the title implies- picking apart lies and propaganda from particular right wing figures- he's great. Showing Ann Coulter is a liar may not take a genius to do, but few people can do it with Franken's level of wit. But when he commentates on the larger political picture, and issues not tied to individual people, Franken is just another partisan. It's not that he's a Michael Moore style, sensationalism-over-sense jerk. He's more reasonable than that. But he usually fails to rise above or add much unique perspective to the common complaints and positions of the left. And speaking of Moore, I would really like a book that discredits lies through satire but includes a few left-wing extremists in the crossfire as well.
