If Democrats Had Any Brains, They'd Be Republicans361 reviews
Ann Coulter

Crown Forum, 2007

Lonely stick-woman calls people names, writes another book

+ I loved it ;o)

It just doesn't stop. What is this, the sixth book by stick-woman? Does it matter? It's the same book, every year. The same shtick, all the time. I'd like to write a wittier review of this book, but it's difficult. I never bought a Coulter book, I never will. I preview these books along ...

Should be required reading

+ An end to self-deception?
+ Market morality begins with each individual

The Limits of Power: The End of American Exceptionalism The Limits of Power does an excellent job of expaining why the United States has been in an almost constant state of war for the past fifty years. The book's core message is that America's pursuit of freedom at all costs, sense of ...
  
  











  



  
Truth and Consequences: Special Comments on the Bush Administration's War on American Values52 reviews
Keith Olbermann

Random House, 2007

A truly revealing and excellent book

+ K.O. Power

Certainly, those persons who spend their days as apologists for the Bush Administration, with their heads firmly buried in the sand, will list out all the reasons why this book is owned by the democratic party, and they'll shriek out the usual evangelistic defenses of Dumbya. But truly, Olbermann ...

Gregg Jackson

JAJ Publishing, 2006

Eye-opening

+ Great, Except...
+ Exceptional tool when you just can't put your finger on it.

I am a Republican, but I never realized ALL that the democrats have done to the individual and our country. This book was spellbinding. I was up almost all night reading it. And I will still go back to it to read again and again.
  
  











  



  
What Happened: Inside the Bush White House and Washington's Culture of Deception187 reviews
Scott McClellan

PublicAffairs, 2008

What Happened

+ Good look into the underbelly of an administration

The book is much better than any of the political commentaries made when it was first released. Strongly suggest reading it -- whether one is a confirmed Democrat (as I am) or a devoted Republican.

In the end, he also gives reason to hope that, in the near future, the liberal ...

Arianna Huffington

Knopf, 2008

She is accurate, but she still is only interested in her big ego and her business, than for real change

Always had a lot of respect for Arianna and I am a total Democrat. I used to read her online news mag every day. At the point where she went after John Edward for having an affair, like she is the editor in choef of the Enquirer, I had enough of her infotainment. There are so many more hypocritical ...

An insider's view

+ The War Within...Bush's struggle with the Iraq and the Iraq insurgency

First, the book is long and tedious, but Woodward's details are thorough and intense, which is important considering the historical significance of this book. Some might disagree with his representation of the material, but it's virtually indisputable that there was conflict in the oval office ...

Awesome! Great Gift.

+ Funny!
+ Brilliant satire

I got this for my boyfriend's birthday gift. He loves the Onion "News" site, and was a Geography major in college (perfect, right?) I don't think there was a moment, until he was finished, that he wasn't carrying the thing around with him. He loved it, and I have to admit, I liked what he read ...

Paul Krugman

W. W. Norton, 2007

Finally some good news!

+ Krugman Liberal Views
+ Nice Work

I pretty much read only non-fiction, which is usually very informative but highly depressing. Krugman somehow manages to cover the modern American political state of affairs without depressing me. In fact this book is very hopeful in specific ways and overall quite uplifting. In modern American ...

Peter Schweizer

Doubleday, 2008

A fascinating and insightful read

+ But are the surveys reliable?
+ Good, but could have been better

Anyone who is not a liberal has noted how they continuously heap praise upon themselves for their moral superiority, while at the same time demonstrating a priggish hostility to those who disagree with them. In this fascinating book, the author undertakes to examine the liberals' mindset, ...
