Rush Limbaugh (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: November 1, 1993

With his first book, The Way Things Ought to Be, Rush Limbaugh made it to the top of the bestseller list and has stayed there for eight months. Now, the outspoken and controversial political commentator is back with his second book--and he's loaded for bear.

From Booklist

By its second day in the stores, Limbaugh's second book had the biggest early sales of a hardcover book in publishing history. That's what the man himself let slip on his radio show, and as he says, he purveys only the truth--a statement that is itself true in terms of both factual accuracy and ideological sincerity. But the truth has little to do with Limbaugh's appeal and success. Those come to him because he is relentlessly upbeat, an indomitable patriot, a booster for capitalism, and a feisty flouter of sanctimonious special pleaders and those most despised of nay-sayers, establishment (the Times, the Post, Time, Newsweek, the networks, etc.) journalists, who'd be much (well. . . a teensy bit, maybe) more acceptable to Limbaugh if they'd only 'fess up to their liberal bias. All of those qualities are here in spades, just as they were in last year's phenomenal best-seller, The Way Things Ought to Be. What's missing is Limbaugh's hilarious, irreverent, and canny use of pop culture--for instance, the New Orleans novelty song, "Ain't Got No Home," introducing updates on homelessness, and a 1960s surfer-rock parody called "The Little First Lady with Meg'lomania," twitting Hillary Clinton--which highlights his radio program and makes it magnetically listenable. To make up for this loss, there's at least chapter 25, "The Politically Correct Liberal Lexicon," but, really, there's no loss to make up, for Limbaugh in his more somber print manifestation is still political and social commentary so lively it cries out to be read and agreed or disagreed with, but always enjoyed.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent follow up to his first book., October 21, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: See, I Told You So (Hardcover)

In Rush Limbaugh's second book he does a nice job of pointing out several theories and predictions from the first. Some of the most notable is the press' double standard in handling of democrats and republicans, most notably the sitting President.

This is a fast paced book and thoroughly entertaining and educating to anyone open-minded enough to give it a read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Truthful information for all Americans, December 29, 1999

This review is from: See I Told You So (Audio Cassette)

This is a must read for finding out the truth about a possible Presidential candidate and New York Senate candidate. These are things you will never read in the Liberal media. I have the audio cassettes and have listened to them numerous times and I suggest all true Americans should do the same.

5.0 out of 5 stars A book for the generation., February 5, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: See, I Told You So (Paperback)

An articulate look at the gaping holes in the liberal philosophy. What Rush says in this book is common sense about family, religion, and society in general. It is good to see someone standing up for moral and ethical behavior, and speaking against the cycle of dependency that liberalism strives for
