Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:With the sacred cows of American politics practically begging for someone to puncture their pomposity, Will Durst hits them in the funniest places. In The All-American Sport of Bipartisan Bashing, this equal-opportunity offender swats both partisan political piñatas from both sides of the spectrum upside their heads. From the utter incompetence of the Bushies and Dick Cheney's destruction of the Constitution to the spineless antiwar posturing of the Congress and Hillary Clinton's unmatched ability to play fast and loose with the truth, everyone takes their licks. Claiming to represent only those 60 percent of Americans in the middle, Durst attacks the fringe for its lack of common sense and Starbucks-like semantic corruption: he agrees that marketing a small as "tall" and a medium as "grande" is a great way to sell coffee, but having politicians chase "venti"-sized vote totals by appealing to the extremes is hardly a good way to run a country. Review:"Highly Recommended! A sharp one man show. Durst is at his sly, savvy best." The New York Times Review:"Funny! Combines the best elements of vintage George Carlin and Dennis Miller!" Daily News Review:"Smashing 'Bashing!' Brilliantly crafted! The natural successor to Mort Sahl....Rivals George Garlin!" The New York Post Review:"He's perfected a verbal jitterbug of comedy taking on politics, war, and rhetoric." The New Yorker Review:"I laughed my butt off! A comedian who is actually funny! One of the greatest commentators of all things political! I think he’s one of the best!" Air America Radio Review:"A great political satirist! One of the funniest guys around! If you really want to laugh, you might want to consider seeing Will Durst!"

Left versus Right. Sun-dried tomato basil reduction versus ketchup. Will Durst is fed up with America’s political extremes. Outraged and outrageous, he’s fired up and ready to joke about it.

This collection of humorous essays swings from the purple center and lands em where it hurts the funniest.
