Book summary


A highly credentialed liberal commentator strongly critiques the conservatives who, he says, control Washington, D.C. Thomas Frank accuses the conservatives of overspending and mismanagement, saying they are too close to the business sector and they aggressively pursue harmful social policies. The result is a broken government. Frank also skewers some of the more prominent conservative banner wearers and uses the Katrina fiasco and the Abramoff scandal to support his thesis.
