In the Spring of 2011, President Barack Obama, in a scathing press
release statement addressed to the Congress of the United States,
reputedly issued this sharp rejoinder to their political
maneuvering: "They Think They Fooled Us " "They Think They Fooled
Us " is a refreshingly humorous view of the contemporary political
scene. Contained in this volume are a collection of amusing and
uproarious responses from singers, artists, philosophers,
statesmen, cartoon characters, comedians, and others-even
politicians-as the opinion given to Barack Obama's hyperbolic
paeon, "They Think They Fooled Us " Decidedly stark and
attitudinal, "They Think They Fooled Us " sums up the mood of a
generation, and is the author's attempt to expose the follies of
the political establishment which rules over the chaotic democracy
in a provocative, yet mordantly satirical manner.

In addition to covering a history of free and open source, The
Daemon, the Gnu, and the Penguin explores how free and open
software is changing the world. It is authored by Peter H. Salus, a

and rapidly moves forward to the Free Software movement of today
and what it means for the future, drawing analogies and linkages
from various aspects of economics and life.
