Book Description

June 21, 2007
Here's everything you need to know about Anarchists, Peace Moms, Granolas, and many other types of left-wing wackos . . . so you can annoy them before they annoy you!

Dreadlocks. Megaphones. The stench of patchouli oil and bad ideas. Who are these ridiculous characters clogging our streets and college campuses, protesting everything from "American imperialism" to genetically modified food to tax cuts?

And how can an articulate, employed, sane person like yourself glean entertainment value from their antics?

Kfir Alfia and Alan Lipton, the founders of ProtestWarrior, America's leading antiactivist organization, have spent years studying the eighteen distinct species of leftist protesters in our midst-everyone from Blacktivists to Hacktivists to Islamothugs. And in this hilarious guide, they will teach you:

% How to easily differentiate among similar species like Communists, Anarchists, and College Students.
% How to recognize the subtleties of the Performance Artist versus the Dylan Wannabe and the Acid Freak versus the Granola.
% How to confront, tease and taunt these wackos with witty comebacks, demolishing zingers, and infuriating facts. (Here's one: "War never solved anything ... except for slavery, fascism, Nazism and communism!")

A Field Guide to Left Wing Wackos is the manual you want at your fingertips to defend yourself and the American Way-and have some fun while you're at it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic, July 23, 2007
This review is from: A Field Guide to Left-Wing Wackos: And What to Do About Them (Hardcover)
Great book. Great idea, to use the 1960s tactics of the left, on the left. The authors went to lefty parades and brought signs that said stuff like "War Never Solved Anything - Except winning World War I, the Civil War, and beating Fascism". Or having a placard at an anti-war demo, showing Kurds gassed by Saddam, with the text that reads "Yep, no WMDs here !". Brilliant. My personal favorite is the one proclaiming to be in favor of pacifism and non-violence, unless of course, the guy holding the machine gun is a 'romantic' lefty guerilla, like Che Guevara. The hypocrisy of the radical left is clearly exposed. I remember the crappy lefty demos from college: tenured private college professors (who live off the capitalist dime) travelling down to Nicaragua to do "coffee picking solidarity" with communist farmers. A teacher who wore a Mao suit in class(I am not making that up). "Smoke Ins" at the capital in Madison (Wisconsin), involving aging hippies lighting up marijuana, while the Wisconsin state patrol looked on. Let's face it, the Left is almost a parody of itself these days. Someone made the point that soon some lefty author will come out with an 'original' book called "Field Guide to Right-Wing Wackos". And there are a lot of them too. They also would be easy to make fun of (the libertarian nut jobs, the guys who think bazookas and full-auto machine guns shouldn't be regulated, the Christian Right, spouting on about the "End Times" and Satan, etc, etc.). The only difference is, the Right doesn't parade itself out in public the way the Left does. You find the Right in their living rooms, or at the gun range, or in Church. You don't find them blocking traffic with Martin Sheen or Sean Penn. Thus, the "field guide" won't work as well for the Right.

5.0 out of 5 stars A truthful yet humorously delightful guide on surviving a left-wing society, June 23, 2007
By 
Geron Kizan (Scottsdale, AZ USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Field Guide to Left-Wing Wackos: And What to Do About Them (Hardcover)
I just received this book today and was so enticed and overwhelmed by this book and its light-hearted yet hard-hitting ways of how to identify the really insane leftist wackos that plague society today.

A true pick-up for any conservative (young or old) who wants the nitty gritty about what to look out for in societies of left-wing overrule while not being disgusted or choked up in the end.
