I scream, you scream, we all scream for . . . a repeal of Citizens United?

An Election 2012 edition of Stephen Colbert’s Americone Dream is hitting supermarket shelves this week as part of Ben & Jerry’s “Get The Dough out of Politics” campaign. Vermont’s Finest — a self-proclaimed “activist company” — is fed up with the 2010 Supreme Court decision that allows corporations to freely contribute money to elections. Working with Colbert Report star Stephen Colbert, who was first honored with the company’s Americone Dream flavor in 2007 (and who has his own Super PAC), the ice cream makers hope to inspire dessert lovers to speak out against special interests’ undue influence over the American political process.

The TIME article also includes a look at an early sketch of the special-edition carton for the ice cream, with edits by Stephen.

Stephen Colbert has written a short article for GQ about his new book (America Again: Re-becoming the Greatness We Never Weren’t), titled The Third-Most Important Book of the Century.

Imagine if Faulkner, Hemingway, and Fitzgerald teamed up to write the Greatest American Book. Now imagine that didn’t happen and instead Stephen Colbert wrote one. Because that’s what happened.

I believe it was Tolstoy who once said, “First Stephen Colbert wrote a book. Then he wrote a second book. Now a third? Is there any number of books Stephen Colbert can’t write?”

America Again is a work of stunning clarity and bold vision, and it contains some of the greatest hyperbole ever written in the history of mankind. Also, it has pictures. And page numbers, many of them in chronological order!

Begun as an open letter to strangers and fellow misfits, The Minus Times grew to become a hand-typed literary magazine that showcased the next generation of American fiction. Contributors include Sam Lipsyte, David Berman, Patrick DeWitt, and Wells Tower, with illustrations by David Eggers and Brad Neely as well as interviews with Dan Clowes, Barry Hannah, and a yet-to-be-famous Stephen Colbert. With sly humor and striking illustrations, The Minus Times has earned a fervent following as much for its lack of literary pretension as its sporadic appearances on the newsstand. All thirty of the nearly-impossible-to-find issues of this improvised literary almanac are now assembled for the first time, typos and all.

Reviews from Feather Proof Books.

“There is a wealth of striking, un-clichéd, ultra-modern fiction to be savored herein. If there’s a common aspect, it’s an unblinking, deadpan bluntness, even when describing beautiful things, and certain themes emerge: the creative process, body horror, addiction, mortality, lust.”- Indy Week

“Those early issues are impossible to find. The new issues are comparatively sprawling with great material. Getting all of this in one go is just a no-brainer. For all of the readable gems contained within (and there are many), The Minus Times Collected is something you excavate as much as read. As a chronicle of Kennedy’s staking out of a unique literary space, his boldness in sending it out in search of fellow travelers, his persistence, and ultimate success in cultivating a community of like-minded outsiders (many of whom have gone onto great individual success themselves), this collection deserves celebration and a place on the shelf of anyone who appreciates the truly independent voices of contemporary American literature. – The Chicagoist

“The finest almanac to appear in print since Ben Franklin brought forth Poor Richard’s Almanac back in 1732.” – Copper Press
