Moore, Michael: Dude, Where's My Country? Introduction by Michael Moore. With Notes and Sources. New Edition with 2 Author Interviews. Deutscher Titel: Volle Deckung, Mr. Bush. London: Penguin Books, 2003. ISBN: 0141018216
Sehr guter Zustand. Dude, Where's My Country? is the follow-up to the hugely successful Stupid White Men timed to coincide with the run-up to the 2004 US presidential election. Its intent is to make sure there is no repeat of the 2000 election fiasco. More international in focus, W. and his cronies get a thorough going over in Mike's inimitable style, as well as the lacklustre peformance of politicians in general and the barons of corporate America. Plus Mike's idea on what ordinary individuals can do to get their country back into shape. He's the scourge of Stupid White Men everywhere. He's taken on fat cats, gun nuts, lying politicians. And now he's going to do what we'd all love to and kick Bush's butt from here to kingdom come (and show how everyone can help). Yes, Mike's back.....! Remember when we all thought it couldn't get much worse? Before bomb-happy bush and his best friend Tony decided to wage a war that no-one (in their right minds) wanted? Before he wheedled more tax cuts to grease the pockets of his rich ronies. Before Saddam and his weapons of mass disappearance vanished (using the same travel agent as Osama Bin Laden....)? Well, now the world's Bushwhacked. It's time for the good ol' boy to head for the hills, and Mike's on a mission to smoke him out at the next election - and help ordinary people get their country back. What's more, he's going to use his share of the tax cut to do it. But that's not all. He also trashes Murdoch's media; campaigns for a President Oprah; reveals the truth about his Oscar Shock and Awe; offers a Quick and Easy Guide to preventing future terrorist attacks and some handy tips on 'How to talk to Your Conservative Brother-in-Law'! "Michael Moore is the un-Kennedy of the American Left. He is low-born, indestructible, untelegenic, unelected, untarnished by scandal, and powerful ... (which) draws attention to his courage, his self-taught skills and his dogged pursuit of targets that the mainstream media ignore" The Times , ISBN-13: 9780141018218
