Parliament of Whores

Parliament of Whores: A Lone Humorist Attempts to Explain the Entire U.S. Government. Called "an everyman's guide to Washington" ("The New York Times"), O'Rourke's savagely funny and national bestseller "Parliament of Whores" has become a classic in understanding the workings of the American political system. Written at the end of the Reagan era, this new edition includes an extensive Foreword by political writer Andrew Ferguson.
