Leland Gregory generates the best laughs by exposing the worst of human nature. Inside Idiots in Charge: Lies, Tricks, Misdeeds, and Other Political Untruthiness, Gregory offers more than 250 accounts of bumbling bureaucrats on both sides of political party lines such as:
• David Spellman became mayor on July 12, 2006, a week after pleading guilty to felony menacing and third-degree assault for pistol-whipping his wife with a handgun and firing three shots in 2005.
• County officials in Vermillion, Indiana, were told by state homeland security officials in July 2006 to stop using the special emergency-only highway message boards to advertise their charity fish fries and spaghetti dinners.
• Town Councillor David Watson resigned from his position as council vice chairman on January 23, 2007, after unintentionally forwarding an e-mail containing nine embedded images of topless women under the heading This Is National Women's Breast Awareness Day to 18 members of the New Elementary School Building Committee
