Publisher Comments:
According to Pat Robertson 75 to 80 percent of the illnesses in the United States are psychosomatic, and George W. Bush promised there would be no casualties in the Iraq War. Artist Kevin Stone illustrates these and other quotes from Barbara Bush, Jerry Falwell, Ann Coulter and many others in the Pat Robertson and Friends Coloring Book. Also included is a Pat Robertson Paper Doll, and commentary from Mackie Blanton.
"But why should we hear about body bags, and deaths....Or, I mean, it's, it's not relevant. So, why should I waste my beautiful mind on something like that?" — Barbara Bush, March 18, 2003
"Did you know that Pat Robertson, through rigorous training, leg-pressed 2,000 pounds?" — The Christian Broadcasting Network Website
"Now, further evidence that the creators of the series intend for Tinky Winky to be a gay role model have surfaced. He is purple — the gay-pride color; and his antenna is shapped like a triangle." — Rev. Jerry Falwell, on Teletubbies, December 13, 2005

I think religion is okay in politics. What's the big deal?
Don't people need a moral ground to stand on?
Don't you all think this "coloring book" goes way over the top?

I love this! The illustrations take something that is completely anxiety inducing (the theocratization of American politics), and repackages it in a way that is manageable, funny and even relaxing.

I wish I had the imagination of most of these artists. They colored not as kids, but as adults who recognized the inherent flaws in may of the administration's policies. The added commentary and additions to the book were often clever and brilliant.
