First of all, I'd never heard of Joe Conason before I picked up this book,
but I think he is one of those political columnists. Apparently one that
isn't carried by any newspaper I ever read. LOL The title of the book is
what attracted me to it.

Since I tend to be more liberal than conservative, I figured I'd enjoy this
book and I did. I wish he'd have included his sources for the statements he makes. This book doesn't include footnotes or sources so it
would not be very useful as a reference, but I liked the way this guy
writes. I lived through most of what he was talking about anyway, and know
he's right for the most part. It made for interesting reading for me. I'll
give it a 4. ( )

A lot of the arguments aren’t so much here’s why the Democrats are better as throwing more dirt up about the Republicans’ many inadequacies. For instance, on the lie that Republicans are the party of family values, Conason trots out a litany of failed Republican marriages, Republican affairs, and Republican closeted gays. Rather than examine their policies and effect on families and compare it to the Democrats’ and how the latter is better. The defense of the Democrats is limited to noting that the Clintons’ marriage has lasted decades despite problems, and that they offer pro-family policies. But Conason never explains and compares those policies.

Disappointing.

No wonder Ann Coulter ducks out of scheduled debates with Joe Conason. He's got her number, and her usual nasty commentary won't faze him.

In fact, I'm hard pressed to think of anybody better able to stand up to conservative propaganda, unless it's Howard Dean.

Is the United States of America liberal or conservative? (Introduction)
One of the most successful themes of conservative propaganda is the notion that the right, not the left, represents everyday working Americans. (Chapter 1:Limousine Liberals abd Corporate-Jet Conservatives)
