Michael Moore – Dude, Where’s My Country? Audio Book
Dude, Where’s My Country? This is an audiobook by Michael Moore, narrated by D. David Morin.
He is the scourge of Stupid White Men everywhere. He’s taken on fat cats, gun nuts, lying politicians. The Guardian describes him as “a wake-up call, a kick in the mental backside. ” And now Michael Moore is back – daring to ask the most urgent question of these perilous times:
Dude, Where’s My Country?
Michael Moore is on a mission in his new book: Regime Change. The man who slithered in to the White House on tracks greased by his daddy’s oil buddies is one of many targets in Mike’s blistering follow-up to his smash #1 hit Stupid White Men, the biggest-selling non-fiction book of the year. Now no-one is safe: corporate barons who have bilked millions out of their employees’ lifetime savings, legislators who have stripped away our civil liberties in the name of “homeland security,” and even right-wing brother-in-law of yours (yes, we all have one) who manages, year after year, through his babbling idiocy, to ruin Thanksgiving dinner.
