Subject: 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.

More on "101 People Who Are Really Screwing America"
Perhaps one of the most ridiculous phenomena of recent years is
Bernard Goldberg's right-wing and unforgivably successful 100 People
Who Are Screwing Up America. 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.
