While I find this book to be laughable, the reviews are even more so. Here are some gems:

I suppose if it weren't for evil liberals under the bed like Abraham Lincoln, the book could have been all about how two little slave brothers serve their masters in the cotton-fields. Errrrrr...anyone want to break it to him that Lincoln was a Republican? I sense that it would probably cause brain-breakage. He does go on to make this point: isn't she wickedly benefitting from those evil liberals under the bed who campaigned for women to have the vote?

Congratulations to DeBrecht and Hummel, who have given us a very humorous little book that will make both kids and adults laugh, and maybe also think a bit on the state of Big Government, and where it is leading America. And who's the current leading light of Big Business? It ain't the liberals lately, folks.

My only beef with the book is that it was a tad too political. The same message could have been presented without bashing liberalism or unnamed "former leaders". By doing so the book turns off many, and limits it audience. *blinks* That's far too resonable! Report for reeducation, citizen!

The fact that liberals have so vehemently attacked both book and author constitues sufficient proof that this little book has hit a nerve. Hi, Mr. Strawman! I've missed you!

A book that explains the "evils" of taxes. Only rabid neocons will be buying this book for their children. Of course they'll have a difficult time doing so because they won't wan't to drive to a bookstore--that would necessitate utilizing taxpayer funded roads. It would also mean using reading skills they and/or their children probably learned in evil tax supported public schools. And they certainly couldn't borrow the book from a tax-funded public library!

It seems the neocons don't like taxes unless they are funding war, "faith-based" discriminatory programs or something else they like. If it is something useful or humane taxes suddenly become eeeeeeeeevviiiill.

My eyes are rolling so much they are likely to fall out of my head.
Breathe, for the love of god, breathe! Are you calmer now, or do we need to call the men with white jackets?
