politics

Jim Hightower needs to learn how to answer questions on TV before writing a book.

I suppose to rate a book one should reaad the whole thing. I put this book down about half-way through. I wish I hadn't even wasted my time with the first half. Basically, Jim Hightower reveals that he is just as nuts as the people he accuses. He is blind with anger about hating Bush, which was clearly revealed the other night on Hannity and Colmes when Hannity got Hightower to admit that statements made by John Kerry (which Hannity presented as being made by Bush) were dispicable lies. Caught in his own stupidity, he sputtered out, revealing just how deep-seated the Liberals in the country rely on hate and vitriol. Hightower's revealed bias makes anything he says in this book suspect.

Unless you just -hate- anybody who supports Bush in any way, shape, or form, this book can be a little upsetting. Reminds me why partisan politics is a bad thing...

He did do some research, though, clearly highlighting many domestic blunders the Bush administration has made, but the cheap potshots taken every other sentence contribute to a much lower quality book, that is, unless you have nothing but malice in your heart for the presidency. If that's the case, read on! There are others out there like you!
