Wingnut Literature In Review

World Nut Daily is marketing a late April Fool's Day offering:

Hillary's Secret War: The Clinton Conspiracy to Muzzle Internet Journalists

From her own "war room" in the White House, Hillary Clinton commanded a secret police operation dedicated to silencing dissent, muzzling media critics, intimidating political foes, whitewashing Clinton scandals, and obstructing justice. Hillary's operatives infiltrated every level of the news media, federal law enforcement, intelligence agencies, and the federal court system.

They looked upon the "unregulated" datastream of cyberspace as a threat to their power, potentially devastating in its ability to bypass the controlled, corporate media. For that reason, Hillary's secret police persecuted Internet dissidents with special ferocity.

Mainstream news media spiked the story of Hillary's secret war -- and of the scandals she sought to conceal. But the courageous new journalists of the Internet underground defied the odds and exposed the shocking truth about history's most corrupt presidency. This is their story.

Also by the author: Hillary's Secret Mind Control Techniques And How They Cause Me to Expose Myself to Dogs and My Skin Is Crawling With Insects in the Pay of Janet Reno

And coming in May: Spank Me, Professor, by Ben Shapiro. "Fresh and bitterly funny, this book proves that the universities, far from being a place (sic) for open discussion, are really dungeons of the mind that indoctrinate students to become socialists, atheists, race-baiters, and narcissists. " Oooh, kinky.

(Don't forget to bookmark that page so you can review young Ben's work when he finishes it.)

My recommendation: Pass on those pathetic volumes and pick up The Exception to the Rulers by Amy and David Goodman.

Update (4/9): Amy Goodman's book has jumped to 105 in the amazon.com rankings, from somewhere in the 300s when this was first posted. Never underestimate the power of Roger.* *(The power to take credit for something I had nothing to do with.) The Virgin Ben's tome, Dungeons and Reagans, is still at 2,432,357.

Also note: You can support your local independent, instead of amazon, while still shopping online.
