Marty Beckerman's DUMBOCRACY: F#@K Your Blog!

In this election year, we hear much about the all-powerful "bases" of each major party. Who are these activists? What drives them? And why are they all equally dangerous to our lives, liberties, and pursuits of happiness? In DUMBOCRACY, journalist Marty Beckerman spends four years with foot soldiers of the Left and Right-pro-choice and anti-choice, pro-gay rights and anti-gay rights, pro-war and anti-war-and delivers a searing, hilarious indictment of the True Believer mentality.

Whether it's banning free speech to protect people's feelings or banning adult entertainment to enforce morality, extremists have no use for our civil liberties. The ends justify the means for each side-such as brainwashing children and criminalizing dissent-because culture warriors have no other reason for living than victory. However, Beckerman is unafraid to expose their tactics-and their never-ending hypocrisies-with comical, over-the-top glee worthy of "South Park" or "The Daily Show."

No extremist will escape unscathed, but moderate readers of all stripes will fall in love with Beckerman's iconoclasm. In the tradition of P.J. O'Rourke's "Parliament of Whores" and Michael Moore's "Stupid White Men," Beckerman's grand political satire will have readers laughing on the floor and ripping the hair from their scalps.

Ok, you are right about the religion and such. But the republicans hating fast food and cigarettes? I wont try to take up for the republicans, they've proved no better than their twins in the democrat party (it's all one party), but it's the fanatic left who wants to control and regulate everything, including what we eat and smoke. It's not the right wingers who pass the smoking bans and attack Ronald McDonald. It's the left trying to impose Marxist medicine scams and other regulations.
