Customer Reviews

Very funny book!

This is a great book-particularly in the middle of this election season. I recommend it to anyone who's interested in politics or seasoned democrats.

A Fair and Balanced Comedic Relief

Dr. Rueter has done us all in the American Government teaching profession a true service: 2 books of comedic quotes that both Republicans and Democrats have said and that we can say again - in "fair and balanced" lectures that can, if applied in appropriate dosages, awaken some of our students from their MTV comas. O'Reilly and O'Franken watch out - the O'Rueter Factor is coming!

A Reality Check for Your Political Sanity

One of the biggest challenges for any instructor of university level American Politics courses is how to overcome the cynicism and boredom of today's freshmen for things political. Luckily, we now have help from one of our colleagues, Dr. Ted Rueter. The two books, 449 Most Stupid Things Said by Democrats and its companion volume, 449 Most Stupid Things Said by Republicans, are 898 arrows of comedy able to pierce even the most opaque veil of student cynicism. These quotes are zingers that really work to liven up a lecture or shorten that cross-country flight. If you can laugh as you read this book (and you will!), don't worry, your political sanity has been confirmed!

Lots of laughs

Yes, politics can be stupid. And entertaining. Buy this one for your Republican friends, or people who are just fed up with the nonsense.

Excellent Buy!

I didn't know politics could be so funny. I bought this book to give as a birthday gift for my grandfather. I'm not really into politics and I didn't intend to read it, but I literally laughed out loud and couldn't put the book down once I started reading! I had to get a copy for myself. I know I'll reread this book again and again. Great book! You won't be sorry if you like to make fun of dumb politicians.
