That’s fine, except what do you think about this:

HOT, FAT & CLOUDED: The Amazing and Amusing Failures of America’s Chattering Class (Being a Partial Record of the Incompetence of Our Republic's Mainstream Pundits, Most of Whom Deserve to be Exiled or at Least Have Their Cars Vandalized)

When you get a chance, can you let me know the exact title? I'm assuming it's something like:

Hot, Fat and Clouded: The Amazing and Amusing Failures of America’s Chattering Class (Being a Complete Record of the Incompetence of Our Republic's Mainstream Pundits, Many of Whom Deserve to be ...Exiled or at Least Have Their Cars Vandalized)

... but want to be sure so I can go ahead and update my bios.

If it's not too late, you might want to remove one of the two uses of "America" from the title and replace with "Our Fair Republic." Also, when you get a moment, please let me know what the exact finalized title is so I can change my HuffPo bio and everything else to reflect that.

Good eye. Yes, and I was thinking, it’s not really a complete guide. Something of a Complete Partial Guide….

"Failures" is used twice; want to switch out one for "incompetence"?
