Publisher's Synopsis

'Magnificently, wickedly funny diatribe against the American system of government by Washington's Mr Outrage . . . Buy this book - it is the funniest thing in years' Alec Campbell, Daily Mail
'Parliament of Whores ought to be read by everybody involved in politics as a test of competence. Those who don't laugh should have all political rights taken away from them' Kenneth Minogue, Sunday Telegraph
