Product Description

Here are the facts:

The United States has released 425 terrorists from Guantanamo, at least 50 of whom have returned to the battlefield to fight our troops.

Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton both say they're fiscally responsible. But each has called for $1 trillion in tax increases over the next ten years—and dressed them up as tax cuts!

Mainstream Media has been given marching orders from the Society of Professional Journalists: never refer to "Islamic terrorists" or "Muslim terrorists." And they are obeying! Whenever our brave agents disrupt a terror plot, The media dismisses the culprits as a gang of idiots—lulling us into a false sense of security.

If the liberals win the 2008 election, they will cripple talk radio—forcing stations to give equal time to left-wing programs, and insisting that liberals play a key role in station management.

Up to a quarter of all state pension funds in the United States are invested in companies that are helping Iran, Syria, North Korea, or the Sudan—for a total of nearly $200 billion.

The Do-Nothing Congress is still doing nothing—and the worst offenders are the presidential candidates Clinton, Obama, and McCain, who never show up for their day jobs as senators . . . except to pick up their $165,000 paycheck!

Is it any wonder that Americans feel fleeced at every turn?

As more and more critical problems develop that need national attention, the White House and Congress appear to be AWOL.

Who's calling the shots instead?

Big business, big government, big labor, and big lobbyists. And their self-serving agendas are doing nothing to help the ever-increasing number of American people who are losing their homes, paying credit card interest rates higher than 25 percent, and finding their jobs increasingly outsourced to foreign countries.

In this hard-hitting call to arms, Dick Morris and Eileen McGann reveal the hundreds of ways American tax-payers are routinely fleeced—by our own government; by foreign countries like Dubai that are gobbling up American interests and spending millions to influence government decisions and American public opinion; by Washington lobbying firms that are pushing the agendas of corrupt foreign dictators on Capitol Hill; and by hedge-fund billionaires collecting huge tax breaks courtesy of the IRS.

With their characteristic blend of sharp analysis and insider insight, Morris and McGann call offenders of all kinds on the carpet—and offer practical agendas we all can follow to help turn the tide.

2 out of 5 stars Interesting info, but boring book   August 19, 2008
This book has some interesting information in it, but I don't think it is written especially well. I had trouble staying interested in the book. It is not the kind of book that you have trouble putting down! However, there is some interesting info. in it.

When you get right down to it, that's exactly what this is. Any excuse not to elect the best man for the job in years.

Very ionformative and non-partisan. Makes you wish that the American public would wake up and throw them all out of office!

This book sat on my desk for a month before I had a chance to read it, and I would have been better off skipping it all together. The sole purpose of this diatribe is to spread fear just before the election in November. The supposed "facts" are scatological, misleading, disingenuous and outright fabrications. "Fleeced" is a means to rip Obama by instilling fear in the electorate that he is essentially an evil man with an immoral agenda. This is how the far rightwing ideologues behaved in the last two presidential elections, and it worked so why change now and try to speak the truth instead. I could list dozens of outright misleading claims, but I'll mention one a an example. True that Americans are disappointed that Congress has not achieved much since the 2006 election, but the fault is not with the Democrats as Morris would have you believe. The House has passed a number of significant bills that were sent on to the Senate and then died. But there are 50 Dems, 1 independant and 49 Republicans in a body that requires three-quarters to approve a bill. The Republicans (As they did when they ruled during Clinton's last years) continually block every single bill resulting in no bills being passed. Morris simply ignores that fact because it doesn't support his claim. This book is filled with such bizarre "facts" that simply don't stand up to investigation. This book serves as nothing more than a political agenda to continue spreading fear in the belief it will work again - and it very well may.

This book is a lie from its front cover to the back - it is nothing more than a desperate neo-conservative effort to hold onto the free ride they have had on the backs of middle-class Americans since Reagan began his systematic destruction of protections that were put in place to avoid exactly the debacle we find ourselves in now. Big oil, deregulation of all markets, corporations defining themselves as individuals, banks getting into the buying and selling of mortgages as though they were chips in a casino instead of people's lives, bail-out of multi-billion dollar corporations by the taxpayer who gets no breaks at all, but must simply tighten his belt as he watches his income dwindle, jobs go overseas, cheap goods force small businesses out, etc., etc., etc.

He claims the Dems want to raise taxes - maybe they do - on the wealthiest individuals and corporations who up to now have been paying NOTHING and reaping huge rewards. And how do you think our infrastructure is supported? Emergency services, police, firemen, flood control, roads, bridges, the elderly, disabled, children, schools. That is part of what our tax dollars are supposed to support, not bail-outs, not corporate jets, not corrupt contractors and especially not illegal wars brought about by the indisputable lies of an administration bought and paid for by big oil and multi-billion dollar interests who have no agenda other than their own pocketbooks.

Yeah, go ahead, by this big red lie. It supports the raping of America.
