#1 New York Times bestselling author Michael Moore's incisive examination of the failures of the United State's political system, paired with thoughtful guidance on how to move forward.
In case anyone in Washington hasn't noticed, Americans are fed up with the status quo. In this, the first shot fired over the bow of the 2004 Presidential election, Michael Moore aims to unseat the man who slithered into the White House on tracks built by the bloody hands of Enron and greased with the oil of his daddy. As if an unelected, semi-literate president weren't problem enough, America's Democrats have managed to take the liberty out of "liberal," signing on with the G.O.P. for dirty corporate money and the ill-gotten gains of globalization. The "left" is just as satisfied as the right to stand idly by as the chasm between the haves and the have-nots grows wider and wider.
Thank god for Michael Moore because Dude, Where's My Country tells us precisely what went wrong, and, more importantly, how to fix things. In a voice that is fearless, funny, and furious, Moore takes readers to the edge of righteous laughter and divine revenge.

"This was a reading experience to say the least. Moore is good at what he does, which is taking the complete piss out of people we all love to hate. This book was good, hilarious at times. My favourite chapter is when hes speaking from the future its very funny, mostly because its scarily true!"
— Laura (4 out of 5 stars)
" Disappointing: strident, repetitive and egotistical. Like being cornered by a garrulous and slightly violent dinner guest that you didn't actually invite. "
— Derek, 2/15/2014" it is very much like watching a michael moore movie. it's informative, but full of opinions. there's even a small section where he writes a letter as God... "
— Diana, 2/10/2014" As with anything Moore does, its controversial and extremely compelling. Moore presents very convincing evidence and facts that make you reconsider and think about the world around you. I'm not sure if he makes us wiser, more alert or just plain paranoid, but this is just his version of the story. "
— David, 1/30/2014" Thought it was an interesting read, especially so since it was basically a 'call-to-arms' before the last Bush presidential election to make a change in the White House, and subsequently knowing the outcome of that election. Also, considering the that election and the shift in control from Republican to Democrat, it's really was not tremendously far removed. "
— Erin, 1/29/2014" I get a kick out of his books. What can I say, the truth will set you free. "
— Alissa, 1/27/2014" Michael Moore cuts through a lot of the bullshit here, but though I am a huge fan of his, I found this book to be a little meanspirited. The book delivered some timely insights about the rotten corporatocracy we live in, though in a dick-like fashion. "
— cat, 1/21/2014" CD audio book "
— Diane, 1/8/2014" Cukup menarik membaca tulisan orang Amerika tentang Amerika. "
— Harry, 12/21/2013" what a funny book im sure everyone has read his stuff by now "
— Mary, 12/20/2013" I think I am Michael Moore'd out. Perhaps I needed to read this when it was more current. In either case, boring and really irrelevant. "
— Rich, 12/12/2013" i give up. 72 pages. i can't stand this book. "
— Jeremy, 12/4/2013" Eye-opening in some respects, predictable in others. "
— Mel, 11/30/2013" Some good detail about Bush connections to the Bin Laden and Saudi royal families a nice chapter on a suggested liberal responses to one's yahoo relations short, readable, amusing enough, has some info re useful links. "
— Will, 11/13/2013" Same as his other books, High School politics. "
— Craig, 4/3/2013" I think Michael Moore is very intelligent, and entertaining as well. However this book is not up to par with his film-making. It's a good book for people who want to get their hands on everything Michael Moore that's available, but I think I'll stick to seeing his movies. "
— Kristyn, 9/23/2012" I actually purchased the audio book on iTunes. Great listening! Very entertaining. "
— David, 7/12/2012" Hated this book and will never purchase another Michael Moore book ever in my life. "
— Erica, 10/20/2011" Very good, but tedious... "
— Rob, 8/25/2011" Typical MM rant against Dubya. Problem is it is too busy picking apart or blowing up small incidences to get an effective message across. "
— Lee, 3/23/2011" This excited my brain in high school and shaped a lot of my political leanings today. That being said, I'd probably hate it now. "
— Jeffrey, 3/3/2011" Interesting read, obviously not going to be balanced with opposing arguments to his viewpoints, but as I'm somewhat sympathetic to his view myself I enjoyed it. <br/> <br/>Did it have an effect on Bush and America's future, probably not. "
— Col2910, 2/4/2011" I was stunned when I read this book. I came away thinking, "If even half of this stuff is true, why aren't we doing something about it?" Well, that was six or eight years ago, and you get what you pay for. "
— Peregrine, 12/24/2010" Again, Michael Moore - stick with movies. Rants are too obvius in writing. "
— Della, 12/10/2010" Found it! G.W. Bush took it! "
— Mark, 11/16/2010" Angry and funny, and he provides plenty of citation information for his sources. "
— Kristina, 9/10/2010" Outdated and way too extreme for me. I thought I was learning stuff but then he gave some misinformation about bacteria (micro was my major in college) which totally destroyed his credibility. "
— Jennifer, 9/9/2010" i give up. 72 pages. i can't stand this book. "
— Jeremy, 8/29/2010" Moore Bush bashing but he does make you stop and think about all the ties the Bushes have and why some decisions were made... "
