I remember the first time I read about liberals and conservatives. I remember what book I read it in. I of course, remember the name of the author who wrote that book. This book is what turned me onto politics, gave me the urge to understand more about what was going on in our countries government. The book was "Lies and the lieing liars who tell them." by Al Franken. Probably not the best book as an introduction into politics, but it worked. It is openly liberal, which of course influenced how I viewed republicans versus democrats. But I agreed with nearly all the liberal ideals that I found inside and outside of this book. And many of the those I still do, Rush Limbaugh is a big fat idiot, Bill O'Reilly is a giant dueschbag, Ann Coulter, might be an alien, and if not she is certainly mental.
This of course is coming from Mr. Frankens bid for Minnesota state senator, which he will probably win. Following in the footsteps of other great entertainers turned politicians (Arnie in Cali) though for the most part bad politcians ( Ventura was wondeful in Predator but horrible in Minnesota, Regan sucked on camera, in Cali and in Washington). I do feel that Franken is very well versued in politics, but maybe not so much in law and governing, but hey look where that got Little Bush!!
