'Why's Mommy's a Democrat' apparently not a hoax

A few days ago I posted about a children's book called "Why Mommy is a Democrat," and not finding the book on Amazon, derided it as a hoax.

However, courtesy Metafilter's cenexo, I now have this link to a Daily Kos posting by the author, one Jeremy Zilber. The book is "self-published," that's why it's not on Amazon. Okay -- apologies to the author and to everyone who's enjoying making fun of, or being outraged by, the book. And to its actual readers, if there are any.

But dude -- if your book is indistinguishable from something a wag would create as a parody, then having someone deride it as a hoax is the least of your problems.
