DON’T VOTE—It Just Encourages the Bastards

“You can remove morality from politics like you can remove the head from a chicken, and they’ll both keep going—politics much longer than the chicken.” —P.J. O’Rourke

With more than a million words of trenchant journalism under his byline and more citations in The Penguin Dictionary of Humorous Quotations than any other living writer, P.J. O’Rourke has established himself as America’s premier political satirist. His 14 best-selling books include Parliament of Whores, Give War a Chance, Eat the Rich, The CEO of the Sofa, Peace Kills and On the Wealth of Nations. Both Time and The Wall Street Journal have called him “the funniest writer in America.” He frequently appears on television, and is a regular panelist on National Public Radio’s Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell Me.

Judy Muller is an Emmy Award –winning television correspondent and NPR commentator. She is on the faculty of the USC Annenberg School for Communications and Journalism.
