JIMMY HOFFA CALLED MY MOM A BITCH!: PROFILES IN STUPIDITY
Book ID/图书代码: 12580015B85980
English Summary/英文概要: " The Detroit News syndicated editorial cartoonist Henry Payne describes Jason Vines best: This hilarious, profane, politically-incorrect, former automotive communications veep is an American original. So when Payne created The Michigan View - a funny, un-PC, opinioned, commentary publication for The Detroit News in 2010, one of the first people he turned to as a columnist was Vines. This book is a hysterical compilation of the best of his more than 350 Wisecracker columns between 2010 and today.
Jimmy Hoffa Called My Mom a Bitch! is broken up into various chapters of pure stupidity and satire: Stupid Democrats, Stupid Republicans, Stupid Atheists, Stupid Christians, Stupid Criminals, Stupid Policies, Stupid People and so on; from Detroit to Sacramento to Washington, D.C. to Kim Jong Ill s North Korean insane asylum. No one is safe not Bill and Hillary, President Obama, the Reverend Al Sharpton, Charlie Sheen, Michael Moore, Ted Cruz, Newt Gingrich; nor those wacky, smelly stoners at Occupy Whatever.
The Stupid Criminals chapter contains one of Vines most popular columns. Issued June 29, 2010, Globe Al Warming Gets Rubbed the Wrong Way, hysterically takes on allegations that the former VP got inappropriately horny with female masseuse at a Portland, Oregon hotel; and Gore s bizarre account of what actually happened. You won t believe most of the stories in this book, although 83.5 percent of them are true. The remaining 16.5 percent are based on what Vines often calls his incredibly unreliable and shaky, yet talkative sources.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 《底特律新闻》编辑漫画家Henry Payne对Jason Vines 的形容最为准确:这个滑稽的汽车公关业前总裁是一个美国怪人。因此,当Payne2010年创建《密歇根评论》时,第一批聘请成为专栏作家的人中就有Vines。本书包含了Vines2010年至今350余篇出色的专栏文章。
《吉米• 霍法叫我妈泼妇》分成好几个有关蠢行与讽刺的章节:愚蠢的民主党派,愚蠢的共和党派,愚蠢的无神论者,愚蠢的天主教徒,愚蠢的罪犯,愚蠢的政策等等。
愚蠢的罪犯一章中包含了Vines最受欢迎的专栏文章。尽管本书中83.5%的内容都是真实的,但你可能还是不敢相信书中的大部分故事。剩余的16.5%是基于Vines口中所谓的“不可靠的但却资源丰富”的消息来源。(LYR)
Awards/获奖情况:谁说保守党缺乏幽默?Jason Vines 就毫不吝啬地展现了他的幽默。他抨击了过去的政治正确性,以此暴露左翼人士的虚伪、商业的笨拙以及我们政治领导的无能。如果你想寻求微妙细腻的文章,不要指望,Jason的文风非常直接犀利。——Nolan Finley,《底特律新闻》编辑
我曾和Jason共事,一同为《底特律新闻》撰稿,目睹了他从打破言论限制的禁锢到最终在社论写作上完全不受约束的历程。我一直认为我们埋没了他的才能。本书的大部分内容会令你捧腹大笑,但请注意书中所写的都是真实的故事。而这才是让我们感到悲哀的。——Frank Beckmann,作家
政治家、体育明星、无神论者都沦为Jason评论的对象。我在飞机上阅读这本书时,邻座的人好奇我为什么一直在笑。——Richard Truesdell,兼职记者
Who says conservatives aren t funny? Jason Vines delivers his smack-down humor without regard to whose nose gets mashed. He punches past political correctness to expose the hypocrisy of the left, the bungling of business and the lameness of our political leadership. If you re looking for subtlety, don t look here. Jason is blunt. And he s right. --Nolan Finley, Editorial Page Editor, The Detroit News
I ve known Jason from his days as a wise acre PR flack for Chrysler through the time when he busted the shackles of restricted speech to finally enjoy the completely unfettered world of editorial writing when we shared the pages of the Detroit News. I ve always felt that we ve selfishly hogged his talents to ourselves in Detroit. Much of this book will make you laugh until you cry, but save some of your tears for the realization that what he writes about is all true. That s what really makes us sob. And only a wisecracker like Jason Vines could pull it off. --Frank Beckmann, writer and host of The Frank Beckmann Show on WJR
Hoffa picks up where Vines first book, What Did Jesus Drive?, left off. Profane and hilarious, with no sacred cows for stupidity as far as Jason is concerned. Politicians, sports figures, Atheists, Christians and more, all targets for Jason’s exceptional world view. Read the book in one sitting, on a cross-country flight. The person sitting next to me wondered why I was laughing uncontrollably. --Richard Truesdell, freelance automotive journalist
