Peter Schweizer

Doubleday, 2008

Perfect summer read!
Peter Schweizer is the master at busting open locked doors. In Makers and Takers he clears up common misconceptions about conservatives that the left feeds America through the mainstream media. Not only is the content interesting, but Schweizer writes in an entertaining way. This book is the one you MUST read; but a warning: once you begin you'll be so addicted you don't want to stop!

An Inconvenient Book: Real Solutions to the World's Biggest Problems

Glenn Beck

Threshold Editions, 2007

An Inconvenient Book
I like this book! Glenn Beck has a great sense of humor, which he uses to advantage. Within the pages lie stark contrasting data opposite to the stupid notion by some fellow named "Gore" that the sky is falling. At least Beck hasn't put on 50-75 pounds flying his "green" jet all around the world spouting his unproven nonsense. Sounds like I'm a tad prejudiced, doesn't it? I simply like "just the ...

Liberal Fascism: The Secret History of the American Left, From Mussolini to the Politics of Meaning

288 reviews
Jonah Goldberg

Doubleday, 2008

Finally, someone stated the obvious
At last we have a book which states the obvious, yet by leftists hysterically guarded fact that fascism had always been a form of leftist politics. The contemporary (left) mass media always refer to Nazis ar right-wing, when the total opposite is truth. Nazism is an abbreviation for Nazional Sozialismus, National Socialism. Utterly leftists ideology, which was replaced later by ...

A Conservative History of the American Left

2 reviews
Daniel J. Flynn

Crown Forum, 2008

Brilliantly done
I picked this book up a few days ago and was completely unsure what to expect. On the one hand, it had received mostly favorable reviews from relatively reasonable sources and was even being used as inspiration for an essay contest by YAF, meaning that it could not be completely barren. However, on the other hand, the title came off as dangerously polemical, which made me wonder whether the book ...

The Real McCain: Why Conservatives Don't Trust Him and Why Independents Shouldn't

17 reviews
Cliff Schecter

PoliPoint Press, 2008

The two McCains
This book is a carefully and thoroughly sourced revelation that makes clear that John McCain has "worked" the media into portraying him as a "straight-talker", "maverick" and "independent" when, in fact, he is anything but. Schecter presents a picture of the McCain of public posturing and pronouncements and then sharply contrasts that with his voting record. As to the former, McCain's stand ...

The Nine: Inside the Secret World of the Supreme Court

135 reviews
Jeffrey Toobin

Doubleday, 2007

The Nine
The Nine: Inside the Secret World of the Supreme Court Jeffrey Toobin is unquestionably the finest writer and most cogent commentator on the American legal scene today. His book, "The Nine: Inside the Secret World of the Supreme Court," is a marvelous read for layman and lawyer alike. Unlike Bob Woodward's "The Brethren" Toobin layers the self-revelatory comments of the justices with a ...

The Revolution: A Manifesto

Ron Paul

Grand Central Publishing, 2008

The Revolution A Manifesto
Every word in this book has the true ring of liberty. Before he rekindled this American Revolution I had lost hope as a patriot. Ron Paul's honorable politics and long sustaining diligence to restoring our Republic is evident in his service as a congressman and I know this book will be looked back at in history as a pivotal tool in the Continued Revolution. This Book was informitive, passionate ...

Thomas Sowell

Basic Books, 2007

accessible genius
REad one of his essays, put the book down, think about what you read, apply it to your world around you, then pick up the book and read another essay. Sowell is my hero.

Clarence Thomas

Harper, 2007

What an interesting story!
I never and I mean never purchase autobiographies. I bought this after watching an interview Clarence Thomas gave and didn't regret the purchase. The book was interesting and well written - absolutely unbelievable story.

Conservative Comebacks to Liberal Lies: Issue by Issue Responses to the Most Common Claims of the Left from A ...

Gregg Jackson

JAJ Publishing, 2006

Red State Defenses Against Blue Voters
A fabulous read; no, "HANDBOOK" for a Conservative living in Kennedy Country, staphed by John Kerry, who served in Vietnam. This A-Z encyclopedia of direct comebacks to liberal lies and lockstep has helped me in dealing with my e-Liberal friends. Chapter One started an afternoon bar fight with the female barkeep. I countered her every claim, till the rest of the bar joined in (and I slunk ...

Cancel Your Own Goddam Subscription: Notes and Asides from National ReviewPM

13 reviews
William Buckley

Basic Books, 2007

Entertaining, personal, and worth returning to
With the publication of the wonderful Florence King's "STET, Damnit!" in 2003 and WFB's "Cancel Your Own Goddam Subscription" in 2007, National Review books are breaking new ground in the use of profanity in titles. Which is not a field in which I would have expected them to show such leadership. But since we have Buckley's own assurance in these pages (page 33, to be precise) that "goddam," as ...

Power to the People

Laura Ingraham

Regnery Publishing, 2007

Great guide for taking back our power and country
This book needs to be read every 3 to 6 months until the people understand what their duty as citizens entails. The free ride is over and is going nowhere. It's time for all citizens to become active in who governs them and Laura Ingraham lays out a very simple way for people to take back our power.

What's the Matter with Kansas?: How Conservatives Won the Heart of America

Thomas Frank

Holt Paperbacks, 2005

The Great Delusion: Republicans as the "Party of the People"
There's a paradox abroad in land that has troubled many thoughtful people for many years. On the one hand, workers' wages, in real terms, have been stagnant for two decades, despite strong productivity growth throughout the economy; we continue to hemorrhage manufacturing jobs (and now even white-collar jobs) to outsourcing--including the latest twist, offshoring, which consists of parking boats ...

The Conscience of a Conservative (The James Madison Library in American Politics)

35 reviews
Barry M. Goldwater

Princeton University Press, 2007

Clear and to the point
This book is clear and to the point. Mr. Goldwater doesn't waste any time laying it all out on the line about what true conservatism is. My wife and I are adding it to our home school library of required additional reading.

If Democrats Had Any Brains, They'd Be Republicans

348 reviews
Ann Coulter

Crown Forum, 2007

Entertaining, but Not Comprehensive
This book is entertaining, and offers insight into Ann Coulter's conservative views in a lively way. The format of the book, though, appeals mainly, if not solely, to devoted Coulter fans who are familiar with her past works. It is mostly a collection of quotes, some rarer than others, made by Coulter on a wide array of issues. The book focuses on giving the reader a broad idea of Coulter's ...

The Conscience of a Liberal

75 reviews
Paul Krugman

W. W. Norton, 2007

Thoroughly enjoyed this
I listen to audio CD's a lot, and I really appreciate a competent reader. Jason Culp (the reader) does a very nice job. It helps that the material is written in a very well laid out manner with an easy style. Krugman is extremely convincing. His explanations of the "gilded age", "the compression", the factors which allowed the compression to unravel, and the meanings of neo-conservatism are ...

Conservatives Without Conscience

John W. Dean

Viking Adult, 2006

No Kid Glove Treatment for Authoritarian Conservatives
Former Watergate figure John Dean wrote a compelling critique of the conservative movement in the United States in his book "Conservatives Without Conscience". The author starts out explaining why the book was necessary and how it had been his hope to refrain from serious political commentary. He then discussed events where conservative hacks made attacks against him and his wife that were ...

How Would God Vote?: Why the Bible Commands You to Be a Conservative
David Klinghoffer

Doubleday, 2008

From How Would God Vote? “The Bible commands a style of politics that in the American context could only be described as deeply conservative. Is, then, the politics of God theocratic? “A strong case could be made for theocracy, American-style, if the word were defined not in the conventional way but according to its root meaning. Democracy signifies the rule of the demos , the people. Strictly speaking, theocracy means the rule ...

Bill O'reilly, Charles Flowers

William Morrow, 2007

O'Reilly haters alive and well!!
It is amazing to me how so many people who hate and despise O'Reilly and anyone else like him have the time to write such long and careless reviews. I read the book and so has my 13 year old son and 16 year old niece. Although it may be a little simple at times for them, my niece especially enjoyed the book and said to me that it was one of the more eye opening pieces that she has ever read. ...
