Doug Schoen has a brand new totally historically accurate book out. It's about this one country, "Venezuela," which is a gathering, imminent and existential threat to the very survival of the United States, and if we don't get in there to kill its leaders, quick-like, the next smoking gun will be a mushroom cloud, KABOOM!

Sure it all sounds reasonable. But just who is this 21st century prophet, Doug Schoen? Readers may remember him as the sad sack pollster who failed so ridiculously at rigging Venezuelan opinion polls in the leadup to Venezuela's 2006 presidential elections that Mark Penn had to fire him in the middle of the night, just hours before voting stations opened, and fly down to Caracas to oversee the whole operation himself. This all led to chuckles in Washington, as well as tension in the firm, which soon dissolved into an orgy of "spying, double-crosses, back-biting, broken promises, and bitter legal accusations," and, eventually, dissolution.

Penn went on to spearhead Hillary Clinton's hilariously doomed campaign, until he was fired for collaborating with right wing Colombian crazies, while Schoen pretty much descended into madness, popping up once in a while to publish oddball opinion pieces about Hugo Chavez's secret plans to smash the global economy, declare himself a cult leader, and other themes of Doug Schoen's masturbatory fantasies. All this is to say that the book should be fascinating. Somebody should maybe like read it and send us a report.

Update: Oh duh. Wall Street Journal crazy lady Mary Anastasia O'Grady already reviewed the book last week. She thought it was awesome, except that it's too leftist and anti-American, the end.
