I enjoy politics so couldn't resist this book when I found it at the Dollar Tree Store for $1. After reading it, however, I think I overpaid for it. There are some humorous moments and interesting anecdotes and statistics in this book -- (some of them quite troubling), but what comes across most is Michael Moore's personal political agenda and belief system. The last 1/3 of the book is an almost incoherent, obscenity-filled written rant about why Ralph Nadar was the man to back for president in 2000 and why Ralph Nadar's candidacy did not siphon off votes from Al Gore, thus resulting in the election of George Bush. In this part of the book, Moore comes off as nothing more than a sour-grapes wind-bag crying over ancient history that cannot be changed. It goes a long way toward making the reader forget the appearance of credibility of his more rational arguments in the first part of the book. I certainly do not consider myself a "tea-party" conservative by any stretch of the imagination, but the book I read last year by Glenn Beck made me much more sypathetic to that point of view than this book made me to the ultra-left, liberal point of view.
