Product Description
Once upon a time, conservatives were called the "silent majority." No more. The ascent of Talk Radio and rise of "fair and balanced" television and print reporting has at long last unleashed a flurry of conservative activism through the media aimed at recapturing the heart and soul of the country.
Who better to help spearhead this noble cause than Phil Kent, former president of Southeastern Legal Foundation and a new and rising crusader in the struggle against the corrupting and demoralizing influences of liberalism?
"Hillary Clinton described the conservative movement in America as a vast, right-wing conspiracy," Kent argues. "I prefer to call it a conspiracy of freedom."
The Dark Side of Liberalism: Unchaining the Truth lays bare the falsehoods and distorted messages of liberalism and exposes it for what it isan outdated, negative, anti-American gospel that mockingly undermines the values that made this country great. Packed with passion and commonsense ideas, The Dark Side of Liberalism offers a fresh look at Americas big ticket issuesrace relations, political correctness, immigration, Hollywood, the media, the United Nations, the runaway court system, the war on terror, and Big Governments role in our lives.
A "call to arms" for commonsense Americans, The Dark Side of Liberalism is a must-read users guide for arguing and winning the conservative cause for freedom. As a bonus, the book offers a number of clear and compelling tips on how conservatives can best get their message out in the media to sway others--something lacking in most "conservative" books.
"It is time for all Americans to step up to the plate," Kent notes. "The fate of our civilization, our way of life, hangs in the balance."
