Summary: CD doesn't have complete songs
Comment: I bought this mainly for the CD, and I'm disappointed. While the 52 tracks are fun to listen to, most or all of them are just excerpts from the full songs. And the 74 minutes includes a narrated introduction to each excerpt, which adds to the educational value of the CD but makes it feel more like a history lesson than musical humor.

Summary: The Capitol Steps are great, but this book is dull
Comment: I have been a fan of the Capitol Steps for several years now. Their performances are extremely hilarious as they keep the audience laughing by wearing silly costumes, immitating politicians, and singing songs. This book tells the story of how the Capitol Steps came to be, which is somewhat interesting. It also has portions of the lyrics to their songs, but somehow they just aren't all that funny on the printed page. The book includes numerous photographs, but strangely, not one of them actually shows the Capitol Steps!
The CD that comes with it contains some of the Capitol Steps' all time classics tunes. If you don't already own the albums, this can be funny to listen to. The title is a bit misleading, though. The CD is titled "Sixteen Scandals", but it is NOT the same as the CD that the Capitol Steps released in 1997 under the same name.

Summary: Outlandishly Hilarious
Comment: This was a rather frightening, yet hysterical, trip down memory lane. So much has happened in American politics over the past 20 years. What a blessing it is to have the Capitol Steps around as the bards recording the inane antics of our elected representatives. To prove how great this book is, I've bought three copies of it - one for me and two for other friends. They are phenomenal. Here's to 20 more years of political satire!
