In the “who would have thunk it” category, the conservative magazine, The Weekly Standard tears apart Dinesh D’Souza’s best-selling The Roots of Obama’s Rage in a review titled “The Roots of Lunacy: How not to understand Obama”

Further, conservative political commentator Andrew Sullivan, calls the review, “satisfyingly brutal…” on his blog on The Atlantic‘s web site, and refers to D’Souza’s book as a “hallucinogenic hate-fest.”

The book was not reviewed prepub (nor elsewhere in the mainstream press to date) and is currently at #4 on the NYT Hardcover Nonfiction best seller list.
