Editorial Reviews
The New York Times bestselling author of America's Dumbest Criminals takes on the Feds on this unofficial guide to the hilarious screw-ups the government doesn't want anyone to know about: i.e. a federal computer once listed everyone in Hartford, Connecticut, as dead and 80,000 buttons promoting safety were recalled because they were small enough to be swallowed, the pin was too sharp, and the paint was toxic. 20 line drawings.

Easy reading.

I'm not crazy about the format of this book, but it's an interesting skimmable "bathroom reader" sure to make you chuckle (sadly) at the state of things. Heard this author interviewed - very credible, interesting guy.

Funny

This is a hilarious look at our country's leaders and their "human side". Mistakes are common place for most of us and our government has made a lot of big ones! A fast and easy read.

Good for a laugh

Is it any wonder there are so many screw-ups? We live in a crazy society and this provides some of the reasons why.

A friend of mine who works for the Department of Education bought me this book after my first trip to DC. I was shocked at how the government sometimes runs. It's true that many of these stories are taken out of context, but it's still an enjoyable (if frustrating) look at government waste. This author has written several books about phenomenally stupid people.
