Conservatives are from Mars, Liberals are from San Francisco: 101 Reasons Why I'm Happy I Left the Left
Burt Prelutsky Foreword by Bernard Goldberg
"For years," Burt Prelutsky says, "the ranks of the Right were so bereft of amusing people they had to point to William F. Buckley Jr. as their token funnyman. Finally, thank God, P. J. O'Rourke came along. Now he was really funny. I mean, on purpose."
So begins the man who invented political incorrectness. In this delightful social commentary on just about everything the Left does that offends him, he brings a biting wit.
On Politicians: "If you have a politician for a friend, you don't need an enemy."
On Lawyers: "How is it that in a society in which everything from toys to toasters comes with dire warnings attached, lawyers don't?"
On Working People: "While liberals sing folk songs celebrating the wonderful folk who build the bridges, till the soil, and make the world run, they just don't want them to vote."
In 101 short, pithy chapters, Prelutsky applies his wit and wisdom to the big issues of the day. To quote him: "So rightwingers, dig in an enjoy. Liberals, dig in and wise up."
Review:
"...should not be missed, regardless of your viewpoints. You might learn [something]...in the middle of all those laughs." —IntellectualConservative.com
