Donkey Cons: Sex, Crime, and Corruption in the Democratic Party [Hardcover]

Lynn Vincent (Author), Robert Stacy McCain (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: April 4, 2006

Shameless bribery. Illicit sex. Sweeping corruption.

"The Democratic Party is like the Gambino mob, but with matching federal funds."

In this raucous, head-spinning look at the follies and felonies of today's most famous and infamous liberals, journalists Lynn Vincent and Robert Stacy McCain chronicle for the first time the rampant crime, sex, and corruption of the Democratic Party. Donkey Cons reveals:

• How corrupt Democrats in Congress outnumber corrupt Republicans by as much as three to one.
• How Franklin Roosevelt, Harry Truman, and John F. Kennedy were elected with the help of the Mob.
• What two eyewitnesses said about JFK's obsession with hookers.
• How union operatives take from working families to deliver millions of dollars to Democrats.
• How Democrats in the 1990's covered up a conspiracy one expert called "the largest incidence of obstruction of justice in American history."
• Why Democrats ignore crime victims and take the side of rapists, robbers, and cop-killers-then stump for the right of felons to vote!

From bribery, kickbacks, and sex scandals to espionage, terrorism, and rape, what was once the "Party of the People" has become a party with an appallingly long rap sheet. And this hard-hitting, sad-but-funny expose of the crimes of the Democratic Party finally puts all their misdeeds into perspective. Thoroughly researched, using outrageous anecdotes and intimate details, Donkey Cons shows that the serial corruption of the Clinton presidency wasn't an anomaly but a developing, unnerving pattern in the modern Democratic ethos. These are the stories the Democrats don't want you to read!

3.0 out of 5 stars Naughty Democrat stories, August 2, 2006

This review is from: Donkey Cons: Sex, Crime, and Corruption in the Democratic Party (Hardcover)

Donkey Cons: Sex, Crime, and Corruption in the Democratic Party by Lynn Vincent and Robert Stacy McCain was a bit of a disappointment. The cover and introduction promise stories of crime and misdoings throughout the entire history of the Democrat Party, but much of the book focuses on the last 25 years or so. Scandals involving Roosevelt and other older Dems are glossed over without detail. The writers seem to assume that the reader is already familiar with those events. Much focus is placed on the shenanigans of the Clinton White House, which almost seems to be an issue done to death. Vincent and McCain do bring up several Republican wrong-doers to be fair. I think the writers' strongest point is that while Republicans seem to face up to their crimes or at least have to pay the penalty, Democrats very often do not and are occasionally rewarded for them. This point alone is worth reading the book for.

The slanderers are coming out of the woodwork. Please note that they shy away from offering specifics. Why is this? Well, the answer is an obvious one: in their heart of hearts, they know Lynn Vincent and Robert Stacey McCain are telling the truth about the Democratic elites. The Left generally believes that the end justifies the means. These individuals are relativists to the core. There is presumably no such thing as objective truth. After all, in their way of looking at the world---the Republicans are evil incarnate and deserve to be destroyed by any means available.

Are conservatives perfectly behaved saints? Of course not. The authors would never say anything so ridiculous. Republican, however, usually feel guilty about violating their own ethical code. Moreover, they refuse to look the other way when a hero goes badly astray. No Republican could have survived Ted Kennedy's disgraceful behavior at Chappaquiddick. Their career would have immediately been destroyed. The same holds true concerning the rampant illicit sexual behavior of countless Democratic standard bearers. Democrats are masters of financial chicanery and voter fraud. They are sometimes even willing to partner with gangsters. Numerous Democrats never hesitated to treasonously align themselves with our country's avowed enemies. Convicted criminals, it must also be added, seem to adore the Democratic Party. 68.9% of all felons would vote on behalf of Democratic politicians. And many actually do! This fact alone should appall mainstream voters. Do you want your politicians eagerly seeking the criminal vote?

I observed first hand, as a former Model Cities elected official, how the Democratic Party brought Detroit, Michigan down to its knees. This section of Donkey Cons is alone worth the price. Buy a copy. Better yet, you should also purchase a few copies for your friends.

5.0 out of 5 stars connect the dots, May 8, 2006

Lyn Vincent and Robert Stacy McCain manage to connect the dots that prove the democrats are truly the party of jack asses more clearly than any book to date. Beginning with the fugitive Aaron Burr to the mob influence in the Kennedy administration, to Clinton's last act as president giving a pardon to 140 convicts (who for the most part) should still be rotting in prison, Vincent and McCain uncover an almost inherent propensity of the Democratic party towards corruption and moral turpitude at all levels. While showing that corruption is bi-partisan, the Democrats win this election with no recount necessary.
