I cannot begin to express how absolutely important this book is in terms of the overview it gives of the Bush family and what really drives them. Being politically aware already, I had already heard some of this in newspaper reports before the 2000 election and couldn't believe that more people weren't alarmed just by the facts about George W. Bush and what he did in Texas, or how insidious and elusive the truth was concerning what all his father was involved in. This book fleshes out not only the trickles of truth that had already emerged concerning the Bushes (and the neo-conservatives' self-serving loyalties), but a whole - and in terms of the welfare of the average American - terrible long term agenda. Read this book. It is not propaganda. The man did his research and the truth is what it is. Then tell everyone you know about it. I have.
