village voice: “angry white men” by eric demby.

"the success of a handful of books that assail the bush administration as hypocritical, incompetent, and corrupt has demarcated a groundswell of americans who desire truth about their leaders amid the dearth of critical and official information that is today's mainstream media. it's a demographic large enough that any politician or pollster would identify it as pivotal in an election: 'stupid white men' by michael moore now has 500,000 copies in print and is still number five on the new york times top 10; '9-11' by noam chomsky has 205,000 in print; and 'the best democracy money can buy' by investigative journalist greg palast, published by an indie british press, just sold its paperback rights to american publisher penguin putnam for an undisclosed amount".

obviously there is hope for america and thus hope for the world.

i warmestly can recommend michael moore's book. it's fun to read and then you get hold of the wrong end of your own laughter.

it's probably more valuable than hardt and negri's "empire"... (but latter is more beautiful in the shelf, though).
