Has anyone read 'Banana Republicans' yet?
Currently, I'm in the middle of it and thought I'd recommend it to anyone that's willing to listen - it is a amazingly informative book and frightening too!

this past week, it should be available to watch his segment on the CSpan website.

3. YES!

Great book! I finished it 2 or 3 weeks ago.

I was also impressed to see that it seems very balanced for a "biased" book - they could give Faux News some pointers!

4. I read the first and last chapter. I want to wait until after...
...the election to read more.

I'd rather look at the rest in the context of the results of the November 2004 election.
