Top 25 Political Humor Books

By Julie Sigwart and Micheal Stinson, 2009 - Playing off of the title of Sarah Palin's "Going Rogue" memoir, this well-timed book features coloring pages with lipsticks and pigs, dress-up games featuring the Neiman Marcus RNC wardrobe, and other satirical fun poking fun at Palin.

By Marty Beckerman, 2008 - In "Dumbocracy," journalist Marty Beckerman spends four years with foot soldiers of the Left and Right -- pro-choice and anti-choice, pro-gay rights and anti-gay rights, pro-war and anti-war -- and delivers a searing, hilarious indictment of the True Believer mentality.

Edited by Daryl Cagle and Brian Fairrington - The creative minds behind the Professional Cartonists index have compiled more than 600 cartoons covering the major topics of 2009, a historic year when America saw its first black president sworn into office. The economy sank despite humungous bailouts and unemployment hit new highs--not to mention the drama of Octomom, Sotomayor, Swine Flue, GM's bankruptcy, Iran's election chaos, and the death of Michael Jackson.

By Calvin Trillin, 2008 - Displaying the form that made bestsellers of "Obliviously On He Sails" and "A Heckuva Job," tales of the Bush Administration in rhyme, Calvin Trillin trains his verse on the 2008 race for the presidency. "Deciding the Next Decider" is an ongoing campaign narrative in verse interrupted regularly by other poems, such as a country tune about John Edwards called "Yes, I Know He's a Mill Worker’s Son, But There’s Hollywood in That Hair" and a Sarah Palin song about her foreign policy credentials: "On a Clear Day, I See Vladivostok."

By Gan Golan and Erich Origen, 2008 - A brilliant parody of the beloved children's classic "Goodnight Moon" that roasts the Bush presidency. In it we see a childlike George W. Bush tucked safely away in the confines of his own room with all of the toys he's willfully destroyed, abused, or defaced.
