Description

What makes you go Grrr? Is it the celebrity who is under the delusion that you actually care about how he or she wants you to vote, when all you really care about from the Hollywood set is how they will entertain you? Is it that Paris Hilton is dressing your daughters, Tom Cruise is having kids out of wedlock, and Terrell Owens is putting the "I" in team? From celebrities who forget that they're not policymakers to the politicians who forget they're not celebrities, from the office moron spouting off the latest political rant to the idiots who screech endlessly into their cell phones, FOXNews.com Grrr! columnist Mike Straka is the voice of reason for millions of rabid readers who are sick and tired of the celebrity-obsessed world in which we live today. Straka's hilarious yet brutally honest observations don't stop there. Whether you're at the mall, driving in your car, or sitting at home watching television, there's just so much to Grrr! about, and Mike Straka, aka "The Grrr! Guy," helps you vent with a book that exposes the injustices of the world and takes down some of our biggest offenders!
