Many of us laughed when President Bush appointed John Bolton to be America's ambassador to the United Nations. Our first thought was that he'd be a bull in a china shop. Bolton's book shows us that he was just the right bull, and that ...             An American Family: The Buckleys7 reviews Reid Buckley Threshold Editions, 2008 "A Look into the Mirror of a Changing America" Reid Buckley (RIP) has masterfully written an insightful memoir of a family (his own) that, along with many other families, formed the backbone of a once-great Country, a dynamic culture regrettably on the wane.

Laffer, Stephen Moore, ... Threshold Editions, 2008 Ignore economic deniers The controversy around the Laffer curve is made by those who do not understand the fundamentals of economics: people respond to the incentives. Ask yourself this simple and easy question, would you work hard (or at all) if someone took out of your wallet $4 for every $10 yo earned? What about $5, $6 or more? The fact of the matter is the top 1% of income earners pay 40% of the taxes collect ...             Why You're Wrong About the Right: Behind the Myths: The Surprising Truth About Conservatives10 reviews S. E. Cupp, Brett Joshpe Threshold Editions, 2008 Take down the straw men! Progress of any kind or political persuasion can't come from a denial of reality, a viewpoint shared by NYTimes columnists as well as Ayn Rand. Yet, pursuits of this noble goal often degenerate into simplistic name-calling, and a concomitant spiral into the world of straw-men-bashing and knee-jerk labeling. Given the frightful prevalence of these narrow-minded specters populating any attempt ...             Liberty and Tyranny: A Conservative Manifesto Mark R.

Regnery Threshold Editions, 2008 Excellent History of the Conservative Movement This is an outstanding history of conservativism as an intellectual and political movement. It's especially fascinating as Regnery discusses the three distinct groups that described themselves as "conservative" in the early postwar period -- economic conservatives (libertarians), social conservatives (traditionalists), and anti-communists. According to Regnery, Frank Meyer is the largely unsung ...             The Obama Nation: Leftist Politics and the Cult of Personality823 reviews Jerome R. Corsi Threshold Editions, 2008 Finally the Truth is getting past the Biased media ... This is a fantastic read and documents Obama's past. A must read for anyone who is looking for facts, not media biased coverage, of Obama. The references are clear and consise, allowing the reader to know where the information came from and frankly helps underscore connections inside the USA, ie William Ayers and Rezko, and outside the USA. Make no mistake the biased media calls Obama a ...             My Year in Iraq: The Struggle to Build a Future of Hope49 reviews L. Paul Bremer Threshold Editions, 2006 UK Review This is a very comprehensive account of Paul Bremer's time in Iraq, and for almost the first time gives a real insight into the political in fighting both in Iraq and in Washington as the US attempts to bring democracy to this nation.

I very good read for those who are seriously interested in the Iraq ...             God in the Foxhole: Inspiring True Stories of Miracles on the Battlefield Charles W.

This witty, insightful, and prophetic book, "What's the Matter with California?" is a must-read! The leftist goons at Publisher's Weekly, who can rarely see past their own bias, would love nothing more than to sneer at Cashill's meticulous research (check out the extensive ...             Onward Christian Soldiers: The Growing Political Power of Catholics and Evangelicals in the United States2 reviews Deal Hudson Threshold Editions, 2008 Debunking the Myths "If the Religious Right were suddenly to go out of business, the Religious Left would disappear overnight." This assertion is provocative but Deal W. Hudson's beefs it up eloquently in his recent book about the influence of Catholics and Evangelicals in contemporary American politics. He documents how the followers of the Religious Left are the grandchildren of the 60's (and they have no ...             Blue Skies, No Fences: A Memoir of Childhood and Family10 reviews Threshold Editions, 2007 A favorite of mine...... Maybe its the fact my families roots go back eight or more generations here in the west (Montana, Sierras of California) that I loved this book and any book that is about the richness and positive aspects of the rural wild west, where personal responsibility, self sufficiency, and common sense are the norm. Even in 2007. I also recommend Justice Sandra Day O'Connors book Lazy B which is about ...             Winning Right: Campaign Politics and Conservative Policies7 reviews Ed Gillespie Threshold Editions, 2006 Great book for political junkies of all stripes... Gillespie's book is chock full of great anecdotes about the many elected officials and other characters he has worked with through the years. While some think political people are all anger and hard eges, this book shows that players in this business can be (indeed should be) decent and respectful of their opponents. Gillespie's policy prescriptions at the end of the book are sound, and some ...             Warlord: No Better Friend, No Worse Enemy51 reviews Ilario Pantano, Malcolm McConnell Threshold Editions, 2007 See the Iraq you won't see in the news It's simply infuriating to tune into the media on any given day to find out what's going on in Iraq. The problem is twofold. One, bias rears its ugly head. The mainstream media are, with few exceptions, largely left-leaning in their coverage of the war. They aren't interested in promoting American values or touting our triumphs, so any stories they do on the war will always focus on the negative. ...             Surrender Is Not an Option: Defending America at the United Nations Bolton John Threshold Editions, 2007 The son of a Baltimore firefighter and the first person in his family to go to college, with scholarships to Yale University and Yale Law School, John Bolton studied with preeminent conservative thinkers Robert Bork and Ralph Winter.
