Easy reading. August 9, 2007
I'm not crazy about the format of this book, but it's an interesting skimmable "bathroom reader" sure to make you chuckle (sadly) at the state of things. Heard this author interviewed - very credible, interesting guy.

This is a hilarious look at our country's leaders and their "human side". Mistakes are common place for most of us and our government has made a lot of big ones! A fast and easy read.
Good for a laugh February 21, 2006
Is it any wonder there are so many screw-ups? We live in a crazy society and this provides some of the reasons why.
 Write your Congressman! June 29, 2005
A friend of mine who works for the Department of Education bought me this book after my first trip to DC. I was shocked at how the government sometimes runs. It's true that many of these stories are taken out of context, but it's still an enjoyable (if frustrating) look at government waste. This author has written several books about phenomenally stupid people.
