Al Franken – the author of this book – is currently caught up in a US senate election dispute reminiscent of the Bush/Gore 2000 election. This time, however, it looks like the good guy is going to win.
I was quite intrigued when I heard that Al Franken, previously to entering politics, worked as a comedian and author, and so I decided to quickly read one of his books.
This book, “Rush Limbaugh is a Big Fat Idiot – and Other Observations”, along with “The Wisdom of Crowds” are two books that I read last week whilst doing other tasks, mostly playing Half-Life 2 and cooking. Anyway, while Al Franken’s writing was (at times) amusing, it was nothing special or even particularly interesting. I think it’ll be a while before I read another of his books.
