2. damn! I forgot about that book

I meant to get it several months ago. It must be a real good read.

[Proud2BAmurkin]

3. I never heard of it until 5 minutes ago

Didn't even know Spence was still around

[grasswire]

16. I wonder if the press "ignored" him?

Or perhaps he isn't strong enough for a book tour. He's never had any trouble getting press in the past, but there was nary a peep about this book.

[whistle]

4. The title has a catchy rhythm sort of like "Lies and the Lying Liars

... Who Tell Them: A Fair and Balanced Look at the Right" by Al Franken

8. I like the title, nice rhythm

anapoetic? what is the word?

[H2O Man]

7. I have never seen it ....

Gerry Spence is always interesting. I will certainly be buying the book.

10. Have you read his book "Give Me Liberty"?

It was released about 1998, I think. I learned a lot from it, and so much of what he talked about in that book is now obvious. A most excellent book.

I look forward to reading this new one.

12. I heard him talking about this book on

AAR a few months ago (on Ring of Fire, IIRC) and Spence let the Repigs have it right between the eyes.

From the link to his website:

"These members of Team Hate are the new conservative mouthpieces for a power structure that's selling us into a murky, dead world where people can no longer love, where God is money, where the earth is a commodity to be destroyed for profit, where people are but digits in a money machine, where the ideals of a Christian society are mocked so that greed is now its favored value, where the good Samaritan is a piteous fool and violence against our fellow creatures is celebrated in the name of Christ.

We have become a culture that is fed hate, that has grown to crave hate, a hate-addicted culture that, like any psychotic entity, can destroy itself absent treatment at the hands of those who still retain their ability to love and to forgive.

The argument here is that the new conservative hate culture in America is leading us resolutely and irretrievably to the Fourth Reich. And Team Hate provides the mouth-pieces that spew its dangerous propaganda."

If that ain't the Fweepers, I don't know what is.

13. Thanks for the post.

Gerry used to show up on a lot of cableshows. MSNBC
and CNN. His Conservative Critique might not meet
Corporate Standards. Remember how Donnahue was dropped
because of political reasons. Gerry is a pistol

14. Is it out yet?

I'm going on a business trip next week, and I'm looking for something good to read on the planes. This looks like just the ticket!

[Berry Cool]

15. Oh, it's out, all right.

I bought and read it the end of last year.
