His closing remarks, like an exclamation point after each broadcast, may illuminate the week's events or they may range widely through the oft puzzling human condition—but they're always worth waiting for.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this one-of-a-kind book, we get the undiluted Brinkley.  He marvels at government regulations that require cans of paint to bear a label reading \"Do not drink paint.\"  He nominates Richard Nixon as Official U.S. Government Scapegoat.  He commiserates with an Oklahoma mayor who must earn extra money by collecting beer cans and claiming the deposits.  He reminisces about a White House that welcomed casual picnickers on its lawn.  He forgives George Bush for passing out in Tokyo.  He observes that \"if we can put a man on the moon, we could put Congress in orbit.\"  He skewers lawyers, bureaucrats, Washington insiders, hypocrites of all stripes.  He commemorates absurdity—and hence suffers fools gladly.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn short, \u003cb\u003eEveryone Is Entitled To My Opinion\u003c\/b\u003e is \u003cb\u003eDavid Brinkley\u003c\/b\u003e at his unbeatable best. \u003cbr\u003e  ","brand":"Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47050766319856,"sku":"9780679450719","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780679450719_p0.gif?v=1763607695","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780679450719","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
