Аннотация
A hilarious bipartisan collection of rants, malapropisms, doublespeak, and just plain idiocy from lifelong politicians and Washington wannabes. Whether it's a Republican mayor on crime -- The streets are safe in Philadelphia. It's only the people who make them unsafe (Frank Rizzo) -- or his Democratic counterpart on the same subject -- Outside of the killings, Washington has one of the lowest crime rates in the country (Marion Barry) -- political discourse is often off-course, not to mention unintentionally hilarious.Wickedly funny when read from either direction, this book presents both Republican stupidity (Approximately 80 percent of our air pollution stems from vegetation-- Ronald Reagan) and matching head-slappers from Democrats (For those who died [in the San Francisco earthquake], their lives will never be the same again -- Barbara Boxer).The 267 Stupidest Things . . is the perfect antidote to election-year bombast.From the Trade Paperback edition.
