Another Reader Review

A reader writes:

I have been reading your blog for upwards of 3 years now and was reluctant to buy your book thinking it would have little new for me. 

How wrong I was. After one of your many plugs for the book, I broke down and bought it. You have written an interesting, important book. It is not only a great and convincing argument for conservatism, but a solid rebuke of the "conservative" Republicans and fundamentalism.

2 comments I wanted to make: 1) It is striking how utterly arrogant the ideology of fundamentalism and by extension the Republican party is. At its essence these people think they know all, what is best for me, how I should live my life, what is right. 

2) It seems another term needs to be created to replace "conservative". Republicans of  the last decade have taken the term conservative and not only bastardized it, but made it almost completely meaningless. When people say "George Bush is very conservative," What does that mean? It has lost all connection to what it once meant.

The right-wing media have done their best to rubbish the book and distort its message. They've done this because they realize the power of its case. But it's surviving because of one thing: people who have read it. I'm grateful. You can buy what some don't want you to read here.
