Ed Anger is mad--pig-biting mad!--and he's not gonna take it anymore. As America's angriest--and funniest--columnist, Ed pushes the conservative envelope. In fact, he tears the envelope to shreds. His Contract with America promises the right to smoke anytime, anywhere; a fresh credit slate for every American man, woman, and child; and a gun in every holster. It's crazy, but it just might work: Knock Down the Statue of Liberty and Put a Lock on Our Borders Now! GI Joe Is a He-Man Toy, Not a Doll! I'd Rather Live Next to a Prison than a Public School! Let Doctors Wheel and Deal Like Used-Car Salesmen! Let Our Kids Balance the Federal Budget! "Weekly World News, the black-and-white tabloid read by more than 2 million people a week, is world-renowned for breaking the story that Elvis is alive and for its reports of UFO sightings. Ed Anger, the paper's star columnist for over 13 years, generates hundreds of pieces of reader mail each week with his sharp and painful opinions about...everything.
