Here is a hilarious compendium of ways in which the high and mighty have fallen-straight from their own mouths. In the spirit of The Darwin Awards , and drawing from leaders in the business, political, and sports arenas, Slip of the Tongue provides a painful panoply of remarks that have derailed careers and soiled reputations. Reluctant contributors include Rush Limbaugh, Bill Maher, Shaquille O'Neal, John Rocker, and Gary Hart. Each quote is accompanied by information about the speaker and the dire consequences of his or her verbal indiscretion.
