Look Mom-I'm a Congressman! Takes you behind the scenes on what really happens after a guy wins election to the Big Show. Unlike most of his fellow conservative Republican colleagues, Rogan didn't spring from trust funds, prep schools, and inherited connections. He was the illegitimate son of a convicted felon—single mother who raised her four kids on welfare and food stamps; our future congressman grew up hanging out with street toughs: he hot-wired cars, smoked pot, was expelled from high school-and never graduated. Later, he scrapped his way through college and law school by working as a bartender in Hollywood strip clubs and a Hells Angels biker dive, and as a bouncer in a Los Angeles porn theater. How's that for a congressional pedigree?


If you want to indulge your political curiosity with an entertaining and refreshing insight into life under the dome, then fasten your safety belt, keep your arms and legs inside the vehicle at all times, and get ready for an outrageously fun crash-car ride behind the veil of power. Rogan will show you how a high school dropout from a badass neighborhood adapted to the Congress of the United States, and how he made Congress adapt to him. Enough said-go buy this book!
