Download or read book Guide to the American Liberal written by Sal Iver and published by Sfc/Solvent Free Corporation. This book was released on 2012-09-01 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a journey through the mind of the American Progressive, Leftist, Lefty, Lib, Liberal through a cartoon pictorial of his and her deeds, statements, proclamations and actions. This is strictly the politics and social stands of Liberals in the United States presented using their own words and deeds. We travel through the world of American Liberals peering in on their social fabric. They love gatherings. They love proclamations and marches. They use Facebook, Email, Text Messaging and Twitter until the power grids collapse, allowing their getting together in vast crowds and shouting about whatever bothers them at the time. Of course, no look at Liberal life can be complete without two erudite Conservatives nestled comfortably in the lower corner of the frame commenting on the events unfolding in the cartoon. Their poignant and sometimes hard-nosed observations add the punch this book needs. Though this book shines a light on the political and social attitudes of liberals, rather than throwing accusations and attacks the purpose is to give liberals a mirror to reflect who they are in order for them to take action for their own benefit. This book also gives conservatives a properly focused view of liberals, away from the caustic attacks that normally typifies the public positions conservatives often take. But no doubt there is much in this book for the Conservative to relish and love. The "Guide to the American Liberal" is a one-of-a-kind approach and is spiked heavily with humor. This is a book that should have a place on the living room coffee table of anyone interested in politics in America - whether you are a Liberal or a Conservative.

This book was released on 2020-09-17 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To hear liberals tell it, they are the most competent and compassionate people in America. They are constantly "fighting" to end poverty, provide universal health care, stop gun violence, and save the planet. Yet despite all of this effort, liberals never seem to solve anything. Meanwhile, government keeps growing, freedom keeps shrinking, and the liberal elites keep getting rich off of the American taxpayer. How can this be? In A Conservative's Guide to American Liberalism: 30 Truths About American Liberals and Their Agenda, attorney and writer Gregg J. Cavanagh destroys the myth that liberalism is designed to benefit society as a whole, and instead exposes it for the parasitical and self-serving ideology that it is. In these pages, you will discover: How the liberals' one true goal explains everything they say and everything they do Why every liberal solution to every problem involves more government, less freedom, and higher taxes Why liberals spend large amounts of their own money to acquire power, but rarely spend that same money to solve social problems Why liberals must use deception and force to enact an agenda that they insist "the American people want" Why liberals cloak themselves in American institutions, principles, and values, even as they do everything in their power to tear them down If you want to understand American liberals and their agenda, this book is for you.

Download or read book A Citizen s Guide to American Ideology written by Morgan Marietta and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-03-29 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conservatives and Liberals often resort to cartoon images of the opposing ideology, relying on broadly defined caricatures to illustrate their opposition. To help us get past these stereotypes, this short, punchy book explains the two dominant political ideologies in America today, providing a thorough and fair analysis of each as well as insight into their respective branches. To help us understand the differences between the two contrasting ideologies, Morgan Marietta employs an innovative metaphor of a tree—growth from ideological roots to a core value, expanding into a problem that creates the competing branches of the ideology. This approach suggests a clear way to explain and compare the two ideologies in an effort to enhance democratic debate. A Citizen’s Guide to American Political Ideologies is a brief, non-technical and conversational overview of one of the most important means of understanding political rhetoric and policy debates in America today.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Modern Liberal Jungle: A Guide for Americans, James Connelly argues that Modern Liberalism is not a recent phenomenon but follows a pattern of consistent thought for over a century. Dangerous visionaries have wanted to create a utopian society. Their plans necessitate undermining our Constitutional principles of limited government and federalism by replacing it with a society engineered by experts. This movement has been inherited by the “Liberals” of today – THE MODERN LIBERALS.In The Modern Liberal Jungle: A Guide for Americans, we are taken through the historical background, education and psyche of today's Liberals. Their distortions, irrational emotional appeals, and personal attacks are exposed. Dr. Connelly describes how – armed with fundamental American principles – “most Modern Liberals can readily be reduced to incoherent and impotent sputtering and mumbling.” He explains:• Who Modern Liberals are• Origins and belief systems of Modern Liberals• Reasons Modern Liberals attack America• Tactics used by Modern LiberalsThis guide also shows ways to fight Modern Liberalism through knowing:• Americans beliefs that made us great• The Conservative alternative• How America is uniquely different from Europe• Methods for taking our country back
Download or read book The Essential America written by George McGovern and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2004-07-26 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Liberalism is the oldest and most enduring American tradition, a philosophy and way of life we inherited from the Founding Fathers. This is the central idea of The Essential America by George McGovern, America's best-known (and most consistent) liberal. Referring us to our moral and spiritual foundations, McGovern not only presents a resounding defense of liberalism as "the most practical and hopeful compass to guide the American ship of state" but offers specific proposals for keeping the tradition vibrant. The Essential America proposes programs for feeding the world's malnourished children. Rather than sending our armies abroad, McGovern spells out policies that confront the causes of terrorism. He proposes cutting our military budget (echoing Dwight D. Eisenhower's powerful warning about the military-industrial complex). He condemns preemptive war, criticizes tax cuts for the rich, and warns against government for the powerful minority. Americans have traditionally stood for progress, generosity, tolerance, and protection of the needy, McGovern states -- as well as for multi- lateralism in foreign policy and "a decent respect for the opinions of mankind." He reminds us that while creative tension between liberalism and conservatism is the genius of American politics, it is the liberals who have been responsible for every forward step in our national history. They built "the Essential America."
Download or read book Blue in a Red State written by Justin Krebs and published by New Press, The. This book was released on 2016-03-01 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine if you felt out of step with every other member of the parent association at your kid's school, your quilting circle, or even your workout group. What if casual conversations revolved around Fox News and the decline of American values? How would you feel if you were afraid to put a political bumper sticker on your car or had to think twice about what liberal posts you liked on Facebook? These are just some of the experiences shared by liberals across twenty states and five time zones who tell their stories with honesty, warmth, and humor. Most of us have to “talk across the aisle” once or twice a year—when we're seated next to our conservative out-of-town uncle at Thanksgiving, say. But millions of self- identified liberals live in cities and towns—particularly away from the East and West Coasts—where they are regularly outnumbered and outvoted by conservatives. In this uplifting and completely original book, Justin Krebs, the founder of the national Living Liberally network, speaks with and tells the stories of atheists, vegetarians, environmentalists, pacifists, and old-fashioned liberals—a term he is intent on rehabilitating—from Texas to Idaho, South Carolina to Alaska. Krebs weaves these stories together to create a provocative and rollicking taxonomy of strategies for living in a diverse society, with lessons for every participant in our great democratic experiment.

Book excerpt: Liberals come in all shapes and sizes. They can stand out like a sore thumb or blend into the crowd. To tell if a person is a liberal, all one must do is wait and listen. Liberals just can't sound like normal, sane people. That's their giveaway. They'll use key words such as "Redistribution", "Endangered", "Damn Capitalists", and "Global Warming" in just about every conversation in which they engage. This book not only tells you how to identify a liberal but also points out hundreds of things liberals do that folks like you and I would never consider doing. How the liberals are subverting the very fabric of America and what they're doing to see that this nation fails. You'll soon find out that common sense isn't so common and that liberals would actually like to ban common sense from all public and private decision making. So sit back and enjoy the show. It runs 24 hours a day and stars many big-name liberals as well as the everyday run of the mill lefty wackos that we encounter on a daily basis.

Book excerpt: Al Franken and Bill O'Reilly are two of the most intelligent and politically wise men on the planet earth, or at least they think so. Each man has become the personified voice of "Liberals" and "Conservatives." Franken and O'Reilly are making a fortune by blaming Liberals and Conservatives for everything that happens in America. Are Liberals and Conservatives destroying America or are Franken and O'Reilly laughing all the way to the bank? How much do you know about these Liberal and Conservative groups? Did you know that they control a secretive billion dollar industry? Did you know that these groups are considered "public charities" by the Internal Revenue Service, yet are enormously wealthy and politically influential? Did you know that these groups employ thousands of lawyers, researchers and talking heads who are financed by the most wealthy and powerful people in America? Why are these groups presented as "experts" on CNN, MSNBC and FOX, yet most viewers don't have a clue about who they are? Will Al Franken and Bill O'Reilly Please Shut Up is for the well-informed American who wishes to learn about the origin, financing and agenda of these politically active groups. My goal was to write an entertaining and informative book that reviews the 100 most powerful Liberal and Conservative groups in America. The book is written from a nonpartisan point of view and gives you a clear and concise picture of each group and how it profits fighting the never ending "Culture Wars." The book is an excellent career guide for students and aspiring political gurus. Most of the groups featured in this book offer internships, fellowships, scholarships, volunteer and full-time job opportunities. The Appendix gives you tips on how to join the group of your choice and the full contact details for each group is provided. Whether you consider yourself Liberal or Conservative, I know you will enjoy reading it.
