 Not what Republicans need right now! June 24, 2008
TV McGuirk (St. Louis, Mo)

I thought this book would contain some of the best of Dick Morris, the man who saved Bill Clinton, but it is just a thumping of the media and liberals, along with some unsubstaniated claims aginst Obama. The Democratic congress gets their due from Mr. Morris, but this is nothing new to anyone who watches Fox News cable like myself. I want to question the author's research, and maybe because of his schedule he may of had to have assistants do most of the fact-finding because it sounds too imaginative for someone of Dick Morris' caliber. What Republicans need right now is some really creditable information to throw open to the public that will put John McCain where he belongs!

Let me start out by saying I'm not convinced Dick Morris is a right wing anything. After all he served President Clinton during his administration. I suspect that what is happening is that individuals are aligning themselves as Conservatives and Liberals regardless of party names.
Fleeced is an indictment of large government and idiotic ideas and not a lambasting of democrats or petting of republicans. Whether it's a Congress who can't or won't get anything done or a government that is so grid locked that neither sides wants to give in first, Fleeced deals with the problem in an even handed way. Dick Morris is a consumate insider in Washington. I find his reasoning to be dead on.
Morris contends that 425 terrorists have been released from Gitmo and that 50 of those have been retaken or killed in Iraq. I heard that the figure was close to 100. I suspect the time lag is at work here, but the fact of the matter is that many of the detainees are infact combatants...perhaps all of them.
Is Fleeced a right wing manifesto? No. Morris is very even handed in his criticism. He indicts McCain for not showing up for his day job just as hard at he slams Clinton and Obama. He goes after all of Congress, Democtat and Republican.
I still have some reading to do to finish Fleeced. I've bounced around from chapter to chapter. Suffice it to say that if you're not upset after reading Fleeced I can't imagine why.
I highly recommend Fleeced to anyone who cares for this country.
Peace always

Everyone should read this well researched book. Sure, Obama is a smooth speaker and a good man....but his policies are out there.

Great book. Well researched. If you are the average American, this book will show you why you can't afford Obama. 60% effective rates, govt healthcare. Don't vote for Obama unless you want to go broke the next four years. And if you can't spell Barack, you shouldn't be allowed to vote for him.
A fascinating book, based on excellent research June 24, 2008

A breath of fresh air in terrible times when most of the main stream media does not give us an impartial view
of events. Sometimes they even choose to avoid important news that they do not like.
I loved the way this book deals with the media mockery of terrorist threats, and also with those who have the nerve to try to kill talk radio.
THis is a book based on a lot of research and it has been a big help to me to focus on the ideas of the candidates to the Presidency putting aside what is not really important.
