Most of them would recognize the BS there in a second.

10. It feels real.
It certainly isn't totally absurd to the point where it loses its believability.

But it's bad. Really bad. Like the worst kind of cheese bad.

23. The top half of it is definitely real.
I read that on ABC News site, but they didn't include the part about fasting, cussin' and chew. So, unless Wonkette shopped that part it, it's real. And they usually just like to riff on the real.

All I have to say is: OMG.

Just a few short days ago, I was dreading the release of this book and the $'errorfest in the media that was to follow.

Now, I can't wait. The typeface and page layout is an embarrassment in and of itself!

Edited on Mon Nov-16-09 09:10 AM by Mike Daniels
based on the quality of the writing they displayed on the show I'd say the Wonkette piece is probably legit.

"Donkey Cons: Sex,Crime and Corruption In The Democratic Party."

Other books:
"Same Kind Of Different As Me"
"What Difference Do It Make"

Ghost writer? What difference do it make, Charlie?

Looks like it's legit. The epic fail cannot grow much more. I can't wait to see more of it and have some good old belly laughs.
