Meet Nick Naylor, the new sultan of spin. Pimp, bloodsucker, Washington D.C. Lobbyist. The anti-hero of this satire (Eckhart) will have you cheering for disenfranchised corporate conglomerates. If you argue correctly, you're never wrong.

The book is a scream, but my favorite by him has to be Little Green Men.
Don't read it on a flight though....Homeland Security takes a dim view of hysterical, screaming laughter.

I am hopefully going to a free preview of this tomorrow. Saw the trailer a few months ago and since then we have been waiting for this thing to come out.

This is a hilarious book. When the first "scene" in a book is a tobacco lobbyist waking up naked in the woods, covered head to toe in nicotine patches, you gotta keep reading.

The Globe reviewer said it was strange that no one is ever seen smoking in it.

I just got back from this movie - the first time I've been in a movie theater in ages - and it was great! (Well, except for Katie Holmes, who couldn't act or seduce her way out of a paper bag.... Thankfully, like in "Batman Begins", her part isn't too big.)
A big "Thank You for Smoking" BUMP!
