Synopsis

WITH BILL MAHER, ITS NEVER POLITICS AS USUAL!

Conservatives know what they want and they never forget it. Except for the time Reagan went to the Vietnam Memorial and shouted, Gorbachev, tear down this wall!

Heidi Fleiss and Dr. Kevorkian [are] two visionaries of American social life, the queen and king of coming and going.

The Packwood diaries must be pretty racy, because most of the people who read them apparently cannot wait to get to the bottom of the next page. Which, of course, was Packwoods problem, too.

"Politically Incorrect is almost single-handedly reviving political satire. . . . [It] has pulled off the rare trick of being irreverent without being irrelevant."
The New York Times

"A funny collection of jibes, jokes and tidbits from his hilarious late-night show."
Playboy

About this title

Review:

Politically incorrect humor is nothing new. It seems most jokes from stand-up comedians through the years have poked fun at race, religion, gender or sex while the rest have intended to be downright offensive. (Remember Don Rickles?) But Bill Maher has refined his humor on the nuances and sometimes ridiculousness of all things "politically correct." Host of the talk show "Politically Incorrect," he unloads a collection of his gems for this book, such as: "Should we require a seven-day waiting period to have a child, and if so, would it be called the Brady Bunch bill?" One book you won't want to take to the Rainbow Coalition meeting.

From the Publisher:

Politically Incorrect is one of the most talked-about shows on television today. Everyone has an opinion about it. In this book, which truly is the best of Politically Incorrect, Bill Maher unabashedly gives you his opinion. And most of the time, it's just plain hilarious. In Bill Maher's world, nothing is sacred and no one is safe. And that's what I love about him! This edition has a great preface by Maher and lots of photos from the show. Bill Maher always leaves me laughing--and thinking.
