Stupid White Men
The book I'm reading is called Stupid White Men by Michael Moore. Moore has written two other books Downsize This! Stupid White Men is primarily aboout how the Bush administration is corrupt and is essentially ruining our country. The first sentence its is pretty provocative: "There are those who say it all started to unravel the night of November 7, 2000, when Jeb Bush gave his brother George Jr. an early Christmas present- the state of Florida." Moore goes on to talk about how corrupt the election was and how Bush essentially got elected because his family has all kinds of connections with people in power. Though Moore presents his facts in a way to get as much shock value as possible, much of what he says has been confirmed in other sources. People are often angry with the way Moore goes about making his points, but his facts are often not refuted. If even half of what Moore says is true, I still say it's pretty scary for us and our country.
