The Obama Nation: Leftist Politics and the Cult of Personality The Case Against Barack Obama: The Unlikely Rise and Unexamined Agenda of the Media's Favorite Candidate Outrage: How Illegal Immigration, the United Nations, Congressional Ripoffs, Student Loan Overcharges, Tobacco Companies, Trade Protection, and Drug Companies Are Ripping Us Off . . . And Real Change: From the World That Fails to the World That Works Crazies to the Left of Me, Wimps to the Right: How One Side Lost Its Mind and the Other Lost Its Nerve Editorial Review: Product Description:
Is it any wonder that Americans feel fleeced at every turn? As more and more critical problems develop that need national attention, the White House and Congress appear to be AWOL. Who's calling the shots instead? Big business, big government, big labor, and big lobbyists. And their self-serving agendas are doing nothing to help the ever-increasing number of American people who are losing their homes, paying credit card interest rates higher than 25 percent, and finding their jobs increasingly outsourced to foreign countries. In this hard-hitting call to arms, Dick Morris and Eileen McGann reveal the hundreds of ways American tax-payers are routinely fleeced—by our own government; by foreign countries like Dubai that are gobbling up American interests and spending millions to influence government decisions and American public opinion; by Washington lobbying firms that are pushing the agendas of corrupt foreign dictators on Capitol Hill; and by hedge-fund billionaires collecting huge tax breaks courtesy of the IRS. With their characteristic blend of sharp analysis and insider insight, Morris and McGann call offenders of all kinds on the carpet—and offer practical agendas we all can follow to help turn the tide. by: Dick Morris, Eileen Mcgann Fleeced: How Barack Obama, Media Mockery of Terrorist Threats, Liberals Who Want to Kill Talk Radio, the Do-Nothing Congress, Companies That Help Iran, and Washington Lobbyists for Foreign Governments Are Scamming Us ... and What to Do About It Binding: Hardcover Dewey Decimal Number: 320.973 EAN: 9780061547751 ISBN: 0061547751 Label: Harper Manufacturer: Harper Number Of Items: 1 Number Of Pages: 352 Publication Date: July 01, 2008 Publisher: Harper Release Date: June 24, 2008 Studio: Harper Sales Rank: 90 Average Rating:
 Rating:  - May not like Morris but liked the book, excellent infoThe information within this book should be a required reading of all in politics on how not to govern. Of course, it is an example of how to spend and get your way in our government. Even worse in respects to the Obama info is the lacking of experience, the media in the tank views that have smoked screened the voters about the real Obama. Rating: - A Balanced Look at Ripoffs By Politicians, Corporations, Lobbyists, and OthersThis is a well done expose of those who 'fleece' the citizenry in a number of ways. In a book that has perhaps the longest subtitle ever, Dick Morris exposes those 'fleecers' including politicians on both sides of the political aisle, the media, big corporations, teachers' unions, and many more. As he is an equal opportunity basher, many readers will likely be offended in some way (he has examples of John McCain as well as Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama). Some of the better parts of the book include the following: 1. Barack Obama - Morris outlines many ... Read More Rating: - Fleeced by Dick MorrisThis is a great book full of well documented examples. We must be aware of what is going on here in the USA. This book will open your eyes. Rating:  - Morris' Fleecing Is Mostly PoliticalDick Morris has made a career of exposing the foibles of those who in one form or another--usually political--have been fleecing America. In his most recent book of the same name, he takes dead aim at a wide variety of scalpers who seek to separate America from its security, its work ethic, its national character, and other sectors that for want of a better term used to symbolize America. And therein lies the book's strength and weakness. As he goes about giving an thoroughly deserved lambasting to the fleecers, he places too many under one tent. As I was reading FLEECED, I noticed that of the ... Read More Rating:  - The Problem with Morris' opinions....Obama, in the true liberal fashion, has fluid thinking. He vows to surround himself with intelligent people and to hear a variety of opinions before moving forward. He has gone so far as to compare his prospective cabinet with the cabinet Lincoln held, in order to understand the forces dividing his nation. Is our nation still divided more than a century after the civil war? Yes. And there are those who would profit from keeping it that way -- the Bush/Clinton regime, namely. Whether it's Walmart or Haliburton.... So Obama's proposals might not yet be perfect. OK, I ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
