Your Country Is Just Not That Into You: How the Media, Wall Street, and Both Political Parties Keep on Screwing You - Even After

Description

With humour that's in the tradition the late comics George Carlin and Bill Hicks - along with a dash of Jon Stewart - comes Jimmy Dore. The podcast sensation and "darling of the Progressive Left" points out a few of the things that are wrong in America. (Mostly the politicians and the media!)

Jimmy Dore's Comedy Central special Citizen Jimmy was voted Best of the Year by iTunes and one of 2009's Top 5 Comedy DVDs by Punchline magazine. He is currently the host of The Jimmy Dore Show, which originates from KPFK Los Angeles and is heard nationwide on the Pacifica Radio Network and broadcast on the YouTube channel tytnetwork.com. He has been featured on Comedy Central Presents and has appeared on The Jimmy Kimmel Show, The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, and NBC's Last Comic Standing. Follow him on twitter: @Jimmy_Dore

"Jimmy Dore is: outrageous and outraged, bothersome and bothered, and a crucial, profane, passionate voice for progressives and free-thinkers in 21st century America. This book will anger you if you're a conservative and enrage you if you're a liberal. Enjoy!" --Patton Oswalt "Jimmy has written a book with a very funny title. It turns out there are thousands of funny things in the book too! And the end is inspirational (go on, leaf ahead, I'll wait)...See, I told you. Now buy it." --Ben Mankiewicz, host of Turner Classic Movies "If you're interested in laughing, you're interested in Jimmy Dore. You know what this country needs? It needs to read more from Jimmy Dore. What makes Jimmy really funny is his honesty. The whole book rings true because it is true." --Cenk Uygar, host of The Young Turks, the "world's largest online news show" Jimmy Dore is one of the the funniest human beings I've ever met. I'm a huge fan of his stand up, podcast, and ping pong serve. I love his new book. It made me laugh and it makes sense." --Bill Burr, comedian
