5.0 out of 5 starsBy John Young
By Johny Patterson on January 20, 2009
by John Young

John Tait has a remarkable ability to encapsulate complex issues, complete with appropriate value judgments, in compact sentences that spring off the page. He begins his indictment of the status quo in Plain Truth eloguently:

"American government, in its natural state, served as Western civilization's crowning achievement; in it's current state, it is our most devastating failure. the former represents an entity comprised of great men dedicated to protecting and preserving culture; the latter is made up of traitors intent on its destruction. ... What was once an indispensable friend has become our most dangerous foe."(pg. 7)

Tait reveres America's founding fathers, and is thus a strong advocate of both Constitutional Republicanism and representative government. Noting that despite the best intentions of our founding fathers, the ship of state has sailed far off course, he offers an explanation that echoes many of the sentiments expressed in Western Voices podcasts, though more succinctly:

"As a district becomes more diverse, its representative must fulfill expectations of people from different cultures and with contradictory expectations. Those of a particular background will ask for special privileges. However, special privileges for one group always come at the expense of another. As the groups grow more substantial in both size and number, the representative's job will become increasingly more difficult. A politician expected to address the concerns of his constituents will find the task impossible."(pg.Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 starsPlain Truth By John Tait
By John Tait on February 10, 2009
"Plain Truth_ by John Tait is the best, most succinct exposition of the state of the American government that is in print today. What other authors have tried to do in hundreds of pages, John Tait has done in a few dozen. A single evening (two, at most) spent reading _Plain Truth_ will do more to open one's mind than will months of reading several books by authors who are bedazzled by their own rhetoric, rather than being driven by urgency. Everyone who is seriously concerned about their future should read John Tait's _Plain Truth_."

-Winston Smith (Co-Host of The Political Cesspool)

1.0 out of 5 starsThis book = rantings of an undereducated hack.
By Swift on September 11, 2009
Plain Truth has one and only redeeming value (outside of physical benefits such as its ability to be used as a paperweight or kindling). That is, it informs educated and reasonable people of exactly the sort of alternate universe a certain segment of the population live in. "Plain Truth" is conspiratorial, racist, inconsistent, and often incoherent garbage that betrays a profound and likely semi-willful misreading of American history and politics. This is backwards reasoning at its finest: the author starts at some desired conclusion: a white, christian, isolated nation, and then works backwards to say anything and everything he can think of to get there. The founding fathers' words and intentions are massacred beyond all recognition. Conspiracy theories straight from World Net Daily *or worse* are offered as fact with basically no evidence. There are basically no citations for anything of consequence. And yet, the author has the unmitigated hubris and gall to call this steaming pile of feces "plain truth."
