Book Description

May 10, 2011

Complete with unforgettable encounters, musings, and personal stories, OUTNUMBERED exposes the true face of the Left through comings and goings in liberal Manhattan. Get ready for an unconventional journey that reminds us of the truths one can discover through everyday life.

Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

"Engaging and witty, OUTNUMBERED instantly transports you into the days and nights of a Reagan conservative living in uber-liberal Manhattan. Through her classic no-nonsense tone, Jedediah adeptly shines a light on liberal intolerance, elitism, and hypocrisy, while challenging the Left's false claim on diversity, civility, and feminism. You won't want to miss it."
--MARK R. LEVIN, bestselling author and nationally syndicated talk radio host

"Get ready for something candid, funny, and bold. OUTNUMBERED sharply exposes the Left's bogus talk of compassion and tolerance through their very own contradictory actions. Jedediah's distinctive voice brings to life the true face of left-wing elitism and the striking contrast between the conservative and liberal world view. It's a must-read for all conservatives."
--SEAN HANNITY, bestselling author, television host, and nationally syndicated talk radio host

"The unique, compelling, and earnest voice that characterizes Jedediah's weekly columns comes alive with increased vitality in OUTNUMBERED. She shatters leftist stereotypes about conservatives and exposes the myth of liberal tolerance as she relates her interactions with liberals in everyday life. This narrative, interlaced with commentary and impressions, gives us insight into liberals that books merely about abstract principles do not capture. A fascinating read."
--DAVID LIMBAUGH, bestselling author and syndicated columnist

"Jedediah's courage and wit shine through as she recounts her remarkable personal journey through the Left's assault on every aspect of our lives. Her daily triumph as a conservative living among liberals is a fascinating and inspiring look from the front lines of the culture wars. For all of us interested in restoring our nation to the principles that make it great, Jedediah's moral clarity and terrific storytelling make OUTNUMBERED a must-read."
--TAMMY BRUCE, bestselling author and nationally syndicated talk radio host

5.0 out of 5 stars Loved it May 18, 2011
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I have bought many books from amazon but this is the first time I felt compelled to submit a review of a book. Outnumbered is a quick read and it gives a refreshing, unique perspective from an individual who stands so boldly and courageously in what she believes in. As a grad student surrounded by a group of "tolerant scholars", I was inspired and encouraged by Jedediah's responses and reactions to these encounters. I highly recommend this book, no matter what your political affiliation is.

5.0 out of 5 stars 4.5 Stars May 31, 2011
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I have to applaud Jedediah Bila for standing up for her beliefs, even in the face of what is a seemingly overwhelming opponent (I use that term somewhat loosely as we are all Americans). I have watched her on FNC for about a year now, I would guess and I always enjoy her opinions, whatever the topic and I admire her for not taking an abrasively adversarial stance, instead being forceful but respectful. I like that.

This book is not so much a platform for her sociopolitical beliefs but rather an experience of the time leading up to the 2008 election and after Obama was sworn in to the Office of President, ending in March of that year, with a brief update in our current year. It is filled with episodes of how people she encountered through the day reacted to her Palin pin, or how she doesn't look like a conservative or how her 'friends' reacted to her coming out as a conservative. I found those very revealing and, sometimes, very sad.

It is basically a diary and it is interesting how often during that time politics played a huge role in our lives. Miss Bila relays that in a casual, effective way, sometimes funny (the restribution of muscle tone was hilarious!), always interesting in her daily adventures, but I was really quite shocked at how many teachers used their positions to persuade their students to think along a very specific political line, mostly Democrat. I am glad my teachers did not do that. Miss Bila clearly wants school to be a process where the kids learn how to make up their own minds about the issues and not just be told what to say and what to think, ala Orwell's 1984. Though she is no longer teaching, she does give me hope for the future teachers in America.

If I have any complaint, and why I took off half a star, it is because the book is too short. I wanted to read more. When I was finished, I felt somewhat disappointed that it had ended already. I guess that is a criticism but also a compliment, in a way.

5.0 out of 5 stars A different style. May 17, 2011
By PEC
Format:Paperback
This book is an easy read that really shows the lack of tolerance from those that claim to be tolerant. The design of the book is absolutely fascinating. A chronoligal series of journal type events, the reader though can read any and skip around and still get the feel of the hypocritical, intolerant, attitude on the left. From somebody not from this type of area it is hard for me to relate but it does make me want to assure that where I am from never ends up like this.
