5.0 out of 5 stars
This book should be taught in kindergarten
This book is one of those gifts that come along at a time in life, right when you're ready to hear the message. This book is not just a libertarian manifesto. It is the basis of liberty presented in a highly digestible format of short essays that one can keep a copy of in the crapper. Good stuff in, bad stuff out. This book is a must read and must have for any citizen...

These are clichés that attack the left only
This is a reprint of a similar book previously entitled "Clichés of Socialism." It is an irreverent collection of 83 right-wing shibboleths, against "socialist tinkering," repackaged as contemporary nuggets of patriotic wisdom. Were it not so obviously politically skewed, this book could be a potentially valuable collectible. However since it is both dated...

This book is one of those gifts that come along at a time in life, right when you're ready to hear the message. This book is not just a libertarian manifesto. It is the basis of liberty presented in a highly digestible format of short essays that one can keep a copy of in the crapper. Good stuff in, bad stuff out. This book is a must read and must have for any citizen concerned with freedom, liberty, and a truly just society.

This review is from: Cliches of Politics (Paperback)
This is a reprint of a similar book previously entitled "Clichés of Socialism." It is an irreverent collection of 83 right-wing shibboleths, against "socialist tinkering," repackaged as contemporary nuggets of patriotic wisdom. Were it not so obviously politically skewed, this book could be a potentially valuable collectible. However since it is both dated and gores only one side of the "sacred cow," it is much less valuable. Instead of just changing the title, the author should also have changed the content. Arguably, in today's reactionary American culture, which is slowly drifting in the direction of Fascism, and given that Communism is on its last legs, we sorely need a book that explores the clichés from the other side of the sacred cow much more than from the side presented here. Still, if one can overlook this built-in bias, there is a great deal of knowledge and truth exposed in analyzing these clichés. Three stars |
