This is a real book.
 
There's more... according to this thread on SA:
The real payoff comes when one discovers that Dale M. Courtney is NOT in fact a 12-year-old, and apparently has the President's ear, giving his opinion on topics as diverse as the Iranian protests, healthcare, space exploration, globalization, and more, each with the same bizarre prose and mastery of creative capitalization.

Honestly that is bullshit. Tell me he's just super eccentric or something.

also the funniest thing are the reviews on the amazon page
 
...how can anyone stand to read a book that goes on like this?! Is it self-published or what?

He writes like he's sitting there talking and telling you the story. And the random Capitalization really Pisses me off. :(
 
Maybe he's trying to Emulate the Consitution of America because he thinks Doing so would make his writing more Govermenty.
 
Sweet buttery God. This is exactly like those "example of everything you can do wrong" essays that English teachers give out.
 
haha the author' blog is funny.

Your People want Freedom and to modernize not slavery and rule.

To me the answer is simple take the blame from the employer, he didn’t do anything wrong. [...] My wife is not a lone on this one it involves the entire country. This is not a good system if you are afraid to file for any reason, but it could be a great system! All we have to do is fix it. I am also against anyone trying to get out of a claim by making people out to be fakes or phony’s. They do not deserve a guilt trip. This is ok if they really are fakes but if there are not and we condemn them. Not only would we be condemning them but we are condemning ourselves too. I just think this will create a witch hunt effect on sick people. Lets not do this, lets fix the problem!

What is this I don't even--

I don't even find it funny, but just plain stupid. You'd have to be a complete dumbass to publish something like that. Simply put; I think I'm going to kill someone, most likely myself for reading even just that page..
 
Woah. That's just dumb. Although I think I used to have the same problem a few years ago. For some reason it just comes naturally to capitalize some random words.
 
I know a 7-year-old who writes better than this.

Oh this is priceless, there's a character named "Steve slavery". Fucking brilliant.

It's Almost As Irritating As When People Capitalize Every Word. Possibly Even More.
 
I think this Is the most Hilarious thing ever.

Its probably self-Published, since Hopefully no publisher is dumb Enough to take this book.

Lets just Hope that it does not Become the next Eragon.
