The Jolly President :
or Letters George W. Bush Never Read

Ask any, all, or none of these questions when interviewing Joey Green about his book, The Jolly President. Joey is a veteran interviewee and can roll with the punches, so don't be afraid to ask anything.

SUGGESTED INTRODUCTION

Joey Green is the best-selling author of over 34 books, including Polish Your Furniture with Panty Hose, Clean It! Fix It! Eat It!, and Marx & Lennon: The Parallel Sayings. He's been a guest on The Tonight Show, Good Morning, America, The Rosie O'Donnell Show, and The View. Yet his latest book, The Jolly President, is so politically incorrect that more than 20 publishing houses were afraid to publish it.

SUGGESTED INTERVIEW QUESTIONS:

Joey, what's in The Jolly President that scared so many publishing houses?

The rejection letters you received from the publishing houses read like back cover endorsements. What did they say?

So what prompted you to start your own publishing house?

How did you get the book in bookstores?

You sent a copy of The Jolly President to every U.S. Senator. Why? What kind of reaction did you get from the Senators?

The Jolly President features pocket pages with letters, postcards, or party invitations tucked inside—all addressed to President George W. Bush, from the likes of Saddam Hussein, Osama bin Laden, and Dick Cheney. Give us a sample of one of the letters.

Now you've posted a hilarious Flash animation of The Jolly President on the internet at http://www.lunaticpress.com. How did you create that?

Where can listeners get a copy of The Jolly President?
