This book was written by Stephen Colbert, was published in 2007 and has material on many different controversial political topics. There is also a great book called “Goodnight Bush: An Unauthorized Parody,” which is a parody of the children’s book “Goodnight Moon.”

Now when talking about classic political books there are many to choose from. Two popular titles by Thomas Paine were “Age of Reason.” and “The American Crisis.” Thomas was an outspoken and eloquent writer of his time. If you are looking for a classic political book that is a little more contemporary you can read The Errors of Socialism, which was written by Friedrich A. Hayek in 1988.
