The Case Against Barack Obama: The Unlikely Rise and Unexamined Agenda of the Media's Favorite Candidate
156 reviews
David Freddoso
Regnery Publishing
, 2008
Its all documented
I bought the book to see if the author had uncovered anything really new...but except for a few sources, and the ability to put it together in a readable format, most of this info is available to anyone who wants to be informed. Obama IS the most liberal Senator in many, many years (voting record) and the most junior to ever run for President. He has in fact never held a job where he had to ...

Ron Suskind
Harper

Everyone saves everyone
You do not have to read very far into this book to know that it is a Pulitzer-Prize winning work. It is far more than just the revelations about the abuse of power. One of his revelations, not at all publicized, is that one of his research assistants, working on one of the projects for the book, was detained by federal authorities, interrogated, and had his notes confiscated before being ...

Naval gazinf but surprisingly excellent
This was chosen for our book club and I was reticent as I do not enjoy books on religion and I was worried that she'd be very preachy, thankfully, she's not. Yes, she does an astounding amount of naval gazing but she is self-depracating and quite humorous. I loved, loved, loved the first section in Italy and so agreed with many of her observations, Pray was hard since she's just so determined ...

One can make a difference
This is an incredible story of how one man was inspired through the events surrounding a mountaineering failure to attempt and achieve what was otherwise thought impossible. Greg Mortenson has not only built and financed a school in one of the poorest and most remote parts of Pakistan, he has done it with grace and respect that is lacking from so many humanitarians in the world. Furthermore he ...

Calling all Corn People - READ THIS BOOK!
I read this book a little while ago and didn't have time to review it, but the essential messages keep popping into my consciousness as I go about my day-to-day life. Before reading this book, for example, I had never realized that Corn has cunningly taken over the world and turned us all into "Corn People." Pollan's simple plan - to make three meals - turns into an exploration of all things ...

Obama hides his past relationships and politics. This book reveals why.
Tremendous book.. We know so little about this man who wants to be president.. Despite the liberal media'a romance with Obama, I want to know the direction he will lead. Barrack and Michelle worked with and had a close social relationship with terrorist Bernadine Dorhn and William Ayers. Dorhn and Ayers bombed the Pentagon and police stations and private homes and have recently stated they ...

If you are in an abusive relationship, you need to read this book. If you are a parent then you ought to have your teens read this book. It could save their life. A ...

I didn't know that!
A fascinating book! Every page is full of interesting things I didn't know (and never thought to ask). What sort of "safety features" actually make driving more dangerous? Why does the Los Angeles traffic control system take account of the Hebrew calendar? How do cows function as mental speed bumps in Delhi? What feature do left turners share in Pittsburg and Beijing? Reading it will give you a ...
