Mark Katz, as he readily admits, comes from a New York Jewish family that expected him to be an orthodontist like his father, or perhaps a lawyer.

I didn't want to know they even hire gag writers.

Is this the same guy that created "Dr. Katz" that was on Comedy Central?

Monica Lewinsky was hired for her gagging more than her writing...

Is the joke that Bill Clinton was told at Ron Brown's funeral in this book? It sure looked like a knee snapper from the video...

And, while he doesn't say so, it is plain that Mr. Katz uses his book to lay out his humor-writing credentials and now is waiting for the day when his phone will ring and a new Democratic president calls to summon him to begin work on his first Gridiron Club speech.

I hope it will be a very long wait!

    He obviously has saved most of what he has written and he litters the book with many of his jokes and gags.

The Clinton administration could have used a few more gags, in my opinion.

It sure gagged me.
