Product Description
Welcome to a world where George Bush and Dick Cheney are secretly radical leftists trying to destroy the Republican party from within; where Jeffrey Dahmer is a celebrated conservative pundit and the author of such instant bestsellers as Liberals: Kill Them and Eat Them; and where Richard Perle hosts the NeoCon Game Show, awarding fabulous prizes to the contestant with the most outlandishly wrong answers. Welcome to the world of Tom Tomorrow, whose subversive new anthology skewers the absurdities of American political culture -- and the depravities of the Bush era -- with the sardonic wit and keen insight his many loyal readers have come to expect. From Hurricane Katrina to the latest presidential campaign, these cartoons provide an unflinching look at where we've been -- and just how bright we can expect the future to be.

More terrific content from the amazingly consistent Tom Tomorrow! November 16, 2008
Buy a copy if you are a thinking "liberal"! Great stuff from the longtime political cartoonist Tom Tomorrow. Timely and well thought out cartoons, devastating to the right wing nut jobs that are so prevalent in this country, and can be read in one sitting (though it may be best to space out the book over a few viewings). Highly recommended!
Better than just a compilation November 10, 2008
If you are familiar with his work, which is published around the web and various alternative news weeklies around the country, you might be tempted to think this is just a compilation of those strips put in book format. But it is really more than that - for one thing it easier to browse and enjoy. There are strips here that were either never published, or I missed them. And when read from front to back, they read like an accurate account of the past three years from a politically savvy, sarcastic genius friend. You'll read some of these strips and be amazed at how exactly right he gets it - *as it is happening!*
Great artist, great book - buy it!
I'll take Rational America over Real America November 1, 2008

Tom Tomorrow holds a mirror to Real American readers. Who would think that stating the obvious and great artwork could be so funny?
This is a great holiday gift for any progressive.
He's done it again October 20, 2008
Tom Tomorrow has done it again--a whole book of political cartoons that make you want to laugh and cry simultaneously. The only reason I could bear to read it is that I know Bush will be out of office in a few months. It's a great gauge of our poltical and social age, and the things that seemed normal at the time, but that will be judged as crazy in a few years (I hope).

Tom Tomorrow a/k/a Dan Perkins is extremely insightful when reviewing our current political climate. This book is a must read for all of his fans who may have forgotten his prediction of the tech and housing bubbles, as well as everyone else who do not read his work on a weekly basis. Dpn't just buy one copy, buy several to give as gifts to those who still need enlightening.
