Guest guest Posted May 31, 2006 Report Share Posted May 31, 2006 Tue, 30 May 2006 13:06:44 -0400 (EDT) " BuzzFlash " <alerts 101 People Who Are Really Screwing America " A droll and acerbic refresher course on the issues confronting the 21st-century United States " -- Publishers Weekly 101 People Who Are Really Screwing America (And Bernard Goldberg is Only #73) (Paperback) by Jack Huberman BuzzFlash.com's Review (excerpt) The latest offering from the author of " The Bush-Haters Handbook: A Guide to the Most Appalling Presidency of the Last 100 Years " and " Bushit, " " 101 People Who are Really Screwing America " is a right wing rogue's gallery (with a few other non-political types like " Dr. Phil " and " The Obnoxiously Loud and Constant Cell Phone User " tossed in). It's the kind of book that should come with a dartboard. Huberman works backwards from the 100th (actually the 101st) to the number one person who is f**king over Americans. (Here's a hint: it's not George Bush, but rather the guy who is really the president -- you know, Mr. Snarling Bad Shot.) The book is a terrific response to the tome of the bizarre former CBS reporter, now turned right wing hit man author, Bernard Goldberg. Last year, Goldberg penned " 100 People Who Are Screwing Up America (And Al Franken Is #37). " In Huberman's subtitle, he notes of the 101 people who are " really " screwing America that Bernard Goldberg is only #73. It must be a deflating let down for Bernard, who so much wants to be in the Bill O'Reilly and Rush Limbaugh league of demagoguery.

The vast majority of his targets are no different from the picks of any hyperventilating fan of Rush Limbaugh and Bill O'Reilly: feminists, academics, media moguls, newspaper columnists, liberals, and a few obscure cartoonists and painters. But it's thin on the right wing politicos, their media and corporate echochamber who have landed us in the mess we're in. Best-selling author Jack Huberman provides us with an entertaining and informative bestiary of the real crooks, liars and cheats who are screwing up America. These are not just the people making asses of themselves or getting more media attention than they deserve. Huberman restores the likes of Fox News CEO Roger Ailes, James A. Baker III, Gary Bauer Brent Bozell, Ann Coulter, Karen Hughes, Karl Rove, Leo Strauss and Ralph Reed to their rightful place in the national hall of shame, along with such oozing pustules of cultural putrefaction as the Olson Twins, Mel Gibson, William Bennett, Katie Couric, Matt Drudge, Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, Dr. Phil, Dr. Laura, Oprah Winfrey, Teletubbies, the Simpson sisters, and God.
