Wingnuts: How the Lunatic Fringe is Hijacking America by John P. Avlon
4.0
This book is scarier than anything Stephen King, Dean Koontz, and Richard Matheson combined could come up with.
I'm downright horrified. When I started this, I worried that, during the Bush administration, I became a bit of a Wingnut. I shuddered to think I was anything like the people (both liberal and conservative) showcased in these pages.
I'm 98.5% certain I was NEVER this bad.
I believe in freedom of speech. I believe people should express their political beliefs often and loudly. But I don't believe you should be abusive, and I don't believe you should attack people without having strong facts to back you up. So I'm pretty sure I'm not a Wingnut. Pretty sure. ::shifty::
This is a very well written book. Political books tend to confuse me quiet a bit, as I'm slow on the uptake when it comes to hardcore politics. This spoke in a way that kept me from going, "Hunh?" over and over again.
I'm liberal. Maybe if I was conservative, I wouldn't care for this book. And I wish there was a review from a GR conservative, so I could see their opinion on it. This book doesn't strike me as being too one-sided, but what do I know? I think Sarah Palin is a moose-killing dumbass.
