Rock the House
With a prologue written by Newt Gingrich, Rock the House will be touted as the Republican Political Bible for the 1996 Election year. Provides background on the Republican Party, the November '94 elections, the "Contract With America", and the agenda for future years. Outlines the 12 major reforms Republicans are pushing to return America's government to its constitutional and historic role as a servant of the American people.
Debacle
A provocative critique of the Obama administration's economic policies and an examination of America's difficult economic future During the 2008 presidential campaign, Barack Obama promised "a net spending cut" to make government smaller in order to reduce the deficit. But this huge increase in government spending and debt, and the resulting prospect of higher taxes, will make America a poorer country. Are Americans happier because the government has determined where this money should be spent? According to John Lott and Americans for Tax Reform President Grover Norquist, the answer is no, and in Debacle: Obama's War on Jobs and Growth and What We Can Do Now to Regain Our Future they explain...
Leave Us Alone
The new political movement that now controls much of the Republican party is a coalition of Americans who simply wish to be left alone by the government. They want to be free to run a business, keep the money they earn, own a gun, practice their faith, and perhaps homeschool their children—in short, to control their own destinies. Directly opposed is the descriptively titled Takings Coalition, which is at the heart of the tax-and-spend left. These forces will battle for control of America's future over the next fifty years. In this compelling and powerful narrative, Grover Norquist describes the two competing coalitions in American politics, what they can achieve and what they cannot do, and how you may fit into the contest. Required reading for anyone who wants a deeper understanding of politics in America today, Leave Us Alone outlines the order of battle for the next generation.
Grover Norquist the Fool Who Would Be King
Grover Norquist. The Man. The Myth. The Little Dictator. The hard hitting deep coverage you would expect from a political satire. This book gives more honest information about Grover Norquist than any other source. Unfortunately, the reality is painfully humorous. In an end-of-the-world kind of humor. Grover Norquist is a mere lobbyist who has convinced ninety percent of the Republican party to pledge alligiance to him, instead of to their office. Treason is a bed covered with the mantel of Grover Norquist. Grover Norquist is a pair of bad shoes, pinching the Nation's feet. The GOP worships a lobbyist and the nation struggles to find We The People. Can't we all agree to just throw away this ...
A U-Turn on the Road to Serfdom
This book suggests that drastic reforms are required to reverse the ever-increasing size of the state, a trend experienced in most western nations. The report proposes a reassessment of the scale of government to achieve a reduction in taxation and spending.
The Power to Destroy
How the antitax fringe went mainstream—and now threatens America’s future The postwar United States enjoyed large, widely distributed economic rewards—and most Americans accepted that taxes were a reasonable price to pay for living in a society of shared prosperity. Then in 1978 California enacted Proposition 13, a property tax cap that Ronald Reagan hailed as a “second American Revolution,” setting off an antitax, antigovernment wave that has transformed American politics and economic policy. In The Power to Destroy, Michael Graetz tells the story of the antitax movement and how it holds America hostage—undermining the nation’s ability to meet basic needs and fix critical prob...
Republican Treason
This book is a polemic directed against the Republican Party and the conservative movement, in mostly their own words. It alleges that the Republican Party is fascist and treasonous, defines those terms, and offers quoted testimony in support of that claim. It describes the US policy of political warfare across the world that was originated by the Eisenhower administration and is still continuing. Democratic movements have been attacked then on the false claim that they were communistic and on the false claim now that they are terroristic and a threat to US security. Highlighting similarities.
Gang of Five
Focusing on the lives and careers of five men -- Weekly Standard publisher Bill Kristol, Christian Coalition founder Ralph Reed, anti-tax lobbyist Grover Norquist, Congressman David McIntosh, and constitutional lawyer Clint Bolick -- Nina Easton offers a telling chronicle of the rise of modern conservatism. She describes the family and educational background of each man, the cultural forces that shaped them, and the issues that unite -- and divide -- them as they continue their war against the political establishment. An intriguing look at baby boomers who rebelled against the legacy of the 1960s, Gang of Five is a major contribution to contemporary history. Copyright © Libri GmbH. All rights reserved.
Government Is Good
Why a book defending government? Because for decades, right-wing forces in this country have engaged in a relentless and irresponsible campaign of vicious government bashing. Conservatives and libertarians have demonized government, attacked basic safety net programs like Medicare, and undermined vital regulations that protect consumers, investors, workers, and the environment. This book takes on this anti-government movement and shows that most of its criticisms of this institution are highly exaggerated, misleading, or just plain wrong. In reality, American government - despite its flaws - plays a valuable and indispensable role in promoting the public good. Most government programs are wo...
Death by a Thousand Cuts
This fast-paced book by Yale professors Michael Graetz and Ian Shapiro unravels the following mystery: How is it that the estate tax, which has been on the books continuously since 1916 and is paid by only the wealthiest two percent of Americans, was repealed in 2001 with broad bipartisan support? The mystery is all the more striking because the repeal was not done in the dead of night, like a congressional pay raise. It came at the end of a multiyear populist campaign launched by a few individuals, and was heralded by its supporters as a signal achievement for Americans who are committed to the work ethic and the American Dream. Graetz and Shapiro conducted wide-ranging interviews with the ...
