Republicans like to consider themselves the guardians of traditional "family values." However, much to the delight of Daily Show staffers, the loudest trumpeters of righteous living have — time and time again — been caught living a lie. Win McCormack's You Don't Know Me: A Citizen's Guide to Republican Family Values is a (dis)honor roll of right-wing hypocrisy. From Pastor Ted "Homosexuality is a Sin" Haggard's gay-prostitute-and-meth scandal and Senator Larry Craig's "wide-stanced" men's-room foot-tapping shenanigans, to Bill O'Reilly's "falafel" sexual harassment, the book's 100+ examples of moral exemplars gone wild is pure schadenfreude. A biting foreword by Arianna Huffington introduces the book to debauched lefties and naughty GOPers alike.
