Few have the time or constitution to be able to remember the details of every horror story about how the Republican Party has repeatedly attempted to hijack the American dream for its own selfish reasons. For those who want to be sure they?re not left sputtering in an argument they know they should win hands-down, The I Hate Republicans Reader?via a wide range of lively and entertaining essays, articles, speeches, and rants?will be the place to go for the many compelling reasons to detest the GOP. From era-defining scandals such as Watergate, Iran-Contra, and Enron to coldhearted policies on health care, welfare, and race, to their outrageous theft of the 2000 election and tearing down of the liberal democratic ideals for which the Founding Fathers fought, to the isolationist arrogance of George W. Bush, this book has it all. Divided into such easy-reference sections as Greed, Corruption, Malicious Stupidity, and Big Lies, this collection includes appropriate excerpts from the likes of Eric Schlosser, Michael Moore, Joan Didion, Molly Ivins and Lou Dubose, and David Brock, as well as Ralph Nader, Paul Krugman, Hunter S. Thompson, Barbara Ehrenreich, I.F. Stone, Jimmy Carter, James Carville, Christopher Hitchens, Al Franken, and Bill Moyers.
媒体推荐 "If we let our visions of the world go forth and don't try to piece together clever diplomacy, but wage total war . . . our children will sing great songs about us."
专业书评 From Publishers Weekly

Clint Willis is mad as hell, and he isn't going to take it any more. For readers similarly mad-who think Republicans are "insufferable stinkers" or that they're "small-minded, selfish, arrogant, power-mad, murderous little twits and nerds"-this book will surely satisfy. This anthology gathers dozens of pieces, including excerpts from bestselling books by Michael Moore, Molly Ivins, Eric Schlsosser, and pieces by Paul Krugman, Paul Begala and other well-known liberal voices. Alan Dershowitz highlights the injustice of the Supreme Court's decision in the 2000 presidential election; Hunter Sl. Thompson remembers Richard Nixon after his death ("He was the real thing-a political monster straight out of Grendel"); Paul Begala recounts the "mutually beneficial relationship" between former Enron CEO Ken Lay and George W. Bush. As election time nears and the 2004 presidential election gears up, liberals will appreciate this handy reminder of Republican wrongdoing.
