Matt Taibbi questions America's sanity

Writer Taibbi's new book 'The Great Derangement' goes on sale May 6 and he's put out a promotional video for it that roasts a corrupt White House and an acquiescent corporate media for eight years of greed, terror and blatant, murderous lies. His fellow citizens aren't exactly spared, either. Read more here and see video.

1. He did not need to do a book. We knew all this.

We are sort of back in the 1920's and 1880's. Crooks every place.

2. I'll definitely have to pick that book up

His recent article in Rolling Stone was right on target, and I'm really looking forward to the book.

4. This book is brilliant

I finished it last week.

Taibbi rips into Congress as well as the White House.

5. This is next on my list.

I bought it already but have to finish "The Age of American Unreason" first. I saw this when I bought Taibbi's book, it came out the same day as McClellan's.
