About the Book

From the conservative comedic star of Fox News' "Red Eye" and "The Five," hilarious observations on the manufactured outrage of an oversensitive, sissified culture.
Greg Gutfeld hates tolerance. At the root of every single major political conflict is the annoying coddling Americans must endure of these harebrained liberal hypocrisies. In fact, most of the time liberals uses the mantle of tolerance as a guise for their pathetic intolerance. And what we really need is smart intolerance, or as Gutfeld reminds us, what we used to be call common sense.
"
The Joy of Hate" takes this conundrum head on--replacing the idiocy of openmindness with a shrewd judgmentalism that rejects stupid ideas, notions, and people. With countless examples grabbed from the headlines, Gutfeld provides readers with the enormous tally of what pisses us all off, for example:
- The double standard: you can make fun of Christians, but God forbid Muslims. It's okay to call a woman a whore, as long as she's a Republican. And no problem if you're a bigot, as long as you're black.
- The demonizing of the Tea Party and romanticizing of the Occupy Wall Streeters.
- People who are always offended (see MSNBC lineup)
- How critics of Obamacare or illegal immigration are somehow immediately labelled racists.
- The endless debate over the Ground Zero Mosque (which Gutfeld planned to open a gay strip club next to).
- As well as pretentious music criticism, slow moving ceiling fans and snotty restaurant hostesses.
Funny and sarcastic to the point of mean (but in a nice way), "The Joy of Hate" points out the true jerks in this society and tells them all off.
