As a longtime liberal, from a multigenerational liberal family, I chuckled when a friend gave me this book as a gag gift. I read the first chapter, and though I agreed with the contents, it was quite unhumorous and not entertaining, but I continued with the rest.By the end of the book, I felt disillusioned, and began questioning the moral superiority I had always assumed liberalism had. Through a soul-searching process that extended over several months, I began realizing that most of my true values are closer to conservatism, and it has only been the constant, deadening rhetoric of the left that had kept me from this realization.In short, while I approached this book with a snort, it ended up transforming my political views. I was expecting just a pleasant read backed up with evidence, but instead I found a nasty polemic, positions backed up with no evidence, and embarassing revelations of liberal moral hypocrisy, and a really unfunny read.
