    About this audiobook

    Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the real national zoo! As Aristotle said, "Man is a political animal." Talk radio sensation and New York Times best-selling author Michael Savage is afraid that the ancient philosopher was all too right, and in ways he never could have imagined. In Savage's funniest, most biting book yet, the nation's fiercest independent thinker invites you to take a riotous tour through The Political Zoo--an outrageous look at today's most prominent politicos and pundits as the reptiles, rats, and birds of prey they most resemble. Animal by animal and cage by cage, Savage brandishes his irreverent wit to keep these beasts in check. Serving as resident biologist and zookeeper, Dr. Savage asks that you watch your step when approaching the widemouth copperhead Ted Turner (also known as Mouthus desouthus), do not feed the ego of stuffed turkey Alec Baldwin (Notalentus anti-americanus), and please keep your children with you at all times around wolf boy Bill Clinton (Fondlem undgropeum).  "The world of politics is filled with uncivilized, snarling, rapacious beasts that, like untrained mutts, raise their legs and urinate on everything we hold dear," says Savage. And this sensational book is your guide for navigating the jungle of today's animal-political kingdom.

      A witty and insightful look at many of those in the political spotlight. Savage, a converstavie talk show host, goes after both Democrats and Republicans, assigning them humorously clever Latin name and making observations, as one would animals in a zoo. Savage's observations of these political animals make the zoo an informative and entertaining visit.

      This book is not short biographies of a few well-known people. Savage skewers many with a liberal bent about what they say in public and do in private. One example: Sean Penn - Speaks out against gun, but when his car was reported stolen he had to mention that his handgun was in the car.There is some humor, in the selections that will make you laugh, but it's like many others that take pokes at on side or the other.Buy it at a library sale.
