After a long political season of listening to Glenn Beck's loony rants,
Sarah Palin's off-kilter phraseology, and Rand Paul's downright oddball
elocutions, authors Shelby Gragg and Stefan Petrucha were struck by an
astonishing similarity to the beloved fill-in-the-blank games of their
childhood. And so the hilarious spoof What the (Active Verb) Is Wrong
with the Right? was born.
This laugh-out-loud parody invites readers to create their own fanciful
sentences that would make any right-wing nut proud. From the roots of
the rabid right (testing our knowledge of the McCarthy hearings and
Richard Nixon's Checkers speech), through the O'Reilly and Hannity
ascendancy, and up to the heyday of Glenn and Sarah, What the (Active
Verb) Is Wrong with the Right? touches on the greatest hits and the
most outrageous misses of contemporary conservative rhetoric.
Including favorites such as Ann Coulter and Ronald Reagan, along with a
supporting cast of thousands of tea partiers and irate Fox News viewers,
here's the ultimate impulse buy/graduation gift/stocking stuffer that
will provide hours of cathartic and comic relief for the rest of us.
Chuckle at the rabid right! Guffaw through O'Reilly and Hannity! Giggle
at Glenn and Sarah! And laugh until you weep for the fate of the
nation!
