Product Description

With his trademark bull's-eye analysis and common sense, David Limbaugh provides a sobering-and shocking-portrait of a Democrat Party too morally and intellectually bankrupt to serve our country.


From the Inside Flap

BANKRUPT! That’s what the Democrats are when it comes to new ideas, or to defending America, or to doing anything more than protecting their own narrow political interests. Exaggeration? Hardly. Bestselling author David Limbaugh quotes Democrats to devastating effect as a party that has reduced its mind and heart to the level of intellectual and moral bankruptcy. In this startling new book, Limbaugh shows just how far the Democratic Party has fallen, and why there is little prospect of redemption. In Bankrupt, Limbaugh reveals: • Why the Democrats are more concerned with defeating Republicans than with defeating the global Islamic jihad • Why outright dishonesty has become the fallback mode of Democratic leaders • Why Democrats have a stake in—and have largely succeeded in—foisting a variety of myths on the American public to justify their bad behavior (Limbaugh busts the myths.) • Why Democrats have reduced politics to a matter of personal hate—of Bush and Rove and Cheney—and personal destruction Limbaugh lays bare the gamut of Democratic moral and intellectual bankruptcy—from liberal activist judges who want to rewrite the Constitution, to left-wing moral relativists who want to overturn traditional morality in the name of liberal "values," to unrepentant left-wing racism, to economic ideas that are no more than tired class warfare. If you want the dirt on the Democrats—and all in their own self-damning words—here it is. Republicans and conservatives would welcome a responsible opposition party to keep them sharp and to debate the crucial issues facing our country—but the Democrats aren’t it. In sobering detail, Bankrupt shows why, and highlights the dangers of what a Democratic resurgence could mean for America.

5.0 out of 5 stars David Limbaugh Rocks!, September 8, 2006
By Keith Thompson (Northern CA, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I became a Democrat because of Bobby Kennedy, who introduced me to Tennyson's conviction that "It is not too late to seek a newer world." Also because Kennedy's 1966 Day of Affirmation Speech was a clarion call for a citizenship based on individual responsibility and commitment to personal excellence. In 1972, I was a McGovern delegate to the Democratic National Convention. In short, I was a bona fide liberal.

In the post-Vietenam era I became increasingly dismayed by the unwillingness of leading Democrats to champion America's national defense; the Party's destructive embrace of racial and gender identity politics; and Democrats' unwillingness to put forward anything approaching an affirmative agenda. All while the Party's liberal wing increasingly took refuge in the self-congratulatory notion that their politics of animosity deserves the label "progressive."

Around the time that leading Democrats were saying that lying under oath is okay for a Democratic president -- so long as the subject is "just" sex -- I registered as an independent voter. And I remain a political independent today. (Some of my left-wing friends have taken to calling me a Neo-Conservative. "Try Neo-Realist," I've learned to reply.)

David Limbaugh's new book is a terrific account of the demise of a once great national political party. Lucid, factual, well reasoned, scathingly witty and brimming with passion for America's founding ideals, BANKRUPT is must reading for voters who haven't fully pondered the disastrous consequences of a Congress led by the nighmare team of Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi.

Big time kudos to Limbaugh for telling it like it is about a political party that Roosevelt, Truman, and JFK would today fail to recognize and refuse to join.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Bankrupt" and Not Likely to be Solvent Anytime Soon, March 31, 2007
The Democratic party of John Kennedy differed from its Republican counterpart more in degree than in kind. Both believed in strong national defense and in reducing the national deficit. That Democratic party is long gone and in its place is a cabal of politically correct appeasers who see creeping socialism rather than tried and true capitalism as the bulwark of America. In BANKRUPT, David Limbaugh depicts a party that for the last four decades has surrendured the right to speak for America.

Limbaugh notes that this decline began with the advent of the Vietnam War. That war heralded the rise of an anti-war crowd that began to infiltrate colleges and universities, first as junior faculty members, then as tenured professors, finally culminating as department chairs who made sure that their search for diversity was limited to race and gender. Political diversity now in 2007 simply does not exist on most campuses. Those graying 60s hippies who did not go into teaching went into journalism and television, with much the same result. Limbaugh traces the sure ascension of a radical leftist Marxist world view that is now firmly esconced in our legal system as well. By the time George Bush the Younger won the White House in 2000, the battle for the heart and soul of America had been going on for nearly twenty years with the left winning with Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton and the right with Ronald Reagan. With Bush, however, the political landscape changed from issues to demonization. Limbaugh depicts a Democratic world view who offers no solutions to the many problems of the age other than demonizing the very man who stands as the hellish symbol of all that they see as demented. Bush is less a man than the reincarnation of Hitler and Satan. Limbaugh also sees the concomittant demonization of Bush's inner circle of advisors as a natural outgrowth of a vitriolic hatred that marks the left as surely bereft of ideas that guaranteed their defeat in 2000 and 2004 and promises much the same in 2008, regardless of those who run for the presidency. In BANKRUPT, one can see from the book's cover the smiling faces of the left who promise only to turn the United States into a politically correct socialist state that now reigns nearly everywhere in the West. David Limbaugh is trying mightily to preserve America as the country that did not use to fear calling itself words and phrases that John Wayne might have used in any of his films from an earlier and more patriotic age.

5.0 out of 5 stars Shocking -- and in Ted Kennedy and Nancy Pelosi's own words, August 29, 2006
David Limbaugh does an incredible job researching the conniving politics of the socialistic, secular leaning liberals in their own words to corner them in their duplicity and hatred of America. His commentary is not nearly as searing as their own.

A must read for those that love America.... and also for those that blindly follow the secular left (who obviously hate America). Know who you are following.
