Reading Up A Storm

By Matt Margolis | September 7, 2003

I�m not one for making book reviews, however, since my last update on my reading ventures, I have completed three books, (all within the caffeinated paradise of Starbucks) and I�m about to start a new one.

As you�ll know from my post Make Room On The Bookshelf I started reading �Basic Economics� by Thomas Sowell in late July. It is a fantastic book that I think everyone should read. It does a fabulous job at demonstrating just how common sense capitalism is, and why it works better than communism � in theory and in practice. Sowell�s use plain English to convey the concepts written in the book would even an uneducated commie liberal sweat.

After finishing Sowell, I read �Off with Their Heads� by Dick Morris. His book goes into some detail on how the America is under attack … not just by terrorists, but by the media, (namely the New York Times, have blemished their reputation as the paper of record to being just a left-leaning propaganda machine), Hollywood apologists, the French, even our own government. Dick Morris�s experiences in the Clinton White House gave him a very interesting and personal account of what was going on behind the scenes.

The really damning information of what happened behind the scenes during the Clinton Administration came from the book I just finished yesterday, �Losing bin Laden� by Richard Miniter. Miniter�s book was incredibly informative, based on lots of interviews, investigative reporting, and some never before reported accounts from people deep within the Clinton Administration paint a troubling tale of how Clinton repeatedly turned down golden opportunities to get Osama bin Laden, and to dismantle the Al Qaeda network � and save the lives of thousands of Americans. Between bureaucratic bungles between various departments in the government, to Clinton�s desire to save himself politically rather than fight terrorism,

It�s hard to read the book and not be enraged over the blatant negligence of our former Commander-In-Chief to protect Americans. I recommend this book for anyone who really wants to understand how Osama bin Laden has been targeting Americans for years, and how the Clinton Administration failed to do anything about him for 8 years.

I am soon to start on Tammy Bruce�s �The Death of Right and Wrong� which shall be quite an interesting read.
