This heavily illustrated work (107 drawings by Christopher Millis)is a humorous exploration of the use (and mis-use) of metaphore in the language of American politics and society at large. Eugene Joseph McCarthy (March 29, 1916 December 10, 2005) was an American politician, writer, and academic who represented Minnesota in the United States Congress for over 22 years, first in the U.S. House of Representatives from 1949 to 1959, then in the U.S. Senate from 1959 until 1971. A member of the Democratic Party, McCarthy sought the party's presidential nomination in 1968 on an antiVietnam War platform. In the 1960s he began writing poetry, and his political prominence led to interest in his work. Chris Millis is a prize-winning, bestselling writer, producer, and cartoonist. As a celebrity collaborator, Millis's credited books include The Making of a Stand-Up Guy, with comedian Charlie Murphy, and Here's the Situation, with Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino, star of MTV's "Jersey Shore". Millis frequently writes and travels with actor-comedian Rob Schneider and is collaborating with Rob on several projects, including his memoir. As a cartoonist, Millis has partnered with John McPherson since 1995 on the syndicated cartoon panel "Close To Home," distributed to over 700 newspapers worldwide by Universal Press Syndicate. He has illustrated political, humor, and children's books including An American Bestiary by the late presidential candidate, U.S. Senator, and poet-statesman Eugene J. McCarthy, and the popular New England children's book, A Clam Named Sam by conservationist Lee DeVitt. Millis has published thousands of his drawings in newspapers, magazines, on greeting cards and toys. Millis began his career as an art director and sportswriter for daily newspapers in upstate New York. He holds a B.A. in Art from S.U.N.Y. Buffalo State College and a M.F.A. in Creative Writing from Goddard College, Vermont.
