Glad it was Greg G. I love Greg. He’s funny, twisted, irreverent; blended together with a very generous helping of insight and intelligence. I’m a TiVO-stalker of his,in that I follow him around on tv, record, and then I WATCH him on TiVO. He doesn’t even suspect! I think he is about the only person who could write on this topic in a way that’s concise without getting preachy; genuine without being smarmy; bold enoughto take on touchy concepts; and damned hilarious to help the medicine go down. READ THIS BOOK. Thank you.

From his dedication to Andrew Breitbart to the final sentence (if by “final sentence” you mean two-word fragment), Greg covers taboo terrain with practiced ease, common sense, and uncommon wit. He forages on the forbidden and feasts on foibles with firmness to the right and malice toward none. Wise and wonderful, funny and insightful, and oh so timely.

I’m a conservative professor at a university that leans heavily to the left and I constantly see the kind of “tolerance” and phony outrage that Gutfeld talks about in this book! Constantly! I found myself nodding along and laughing with almost every paragraph. Gutfeld is not only funny–he’s freaking smart. I’m a big fan of The Five and I just had to get this book and read it all the way through on my Kindle the day it came out. Anyway, if you’re still stinging from the election results, pick up this book and feel good about yourself This quote from Greg, pretty much sums up the book: “A funny thing about tolerant people? They’re really only tolerant when you agree with them. Suddenly, when they find out you disagree with just one of their assumptions, they become intolerant of you. Which kind of misses the whole point of tolerance, but I’ll tackle that later.”
