Lefty-Liberal Reading List

What's The Matter With Kansas? by Thomas Frank.

Succinctly explains how MILLIONS of Americans came to vote against their own best economic interests through neocon sleight-of-hand, chicanery and general skullduggery.

My favorite musical is "1776," and here is a quote from that show, uttered by Pennsylvania businessman John Dickinson: "Mr. Adams, most men would rather protect the possibility of becoming rich, than face the reality of being poor, and that is why they will follow us to the Right, ever to the Right, never to the Left, forever to the Right!"

Read the book. It kept me up last night like a Stephen King horrorbook.
