Ain't My America

It's not even out until next month but via Matthew Yglesias I found a review of Bill Kauffman's Ain't My America by Michael Tomasky in Democracy (annoying registration required). I haven't seen the book yet but the mostly positive review (it gigs Kauffman for being nice to America Firsters) makes the book sound familiar to Kauffman fans.

What would a better word be? Well, I don’t quite know, but Kauffman sure would. In fact, I imagine he’d produce a humdinger. Just a few pages into Ain’t My America, his biting history of conservative foreign policy, and all in the space of a little more than one printed page, he employs the words "coruscant," "nescience," temerarious," "adjuration," and, my personal favorite, "tribade." Goodness! As Casey Stengel said, you could look it up. I certainly had to.


Yep. That's our Bill. It's worth registering and reading.

Comments:
I'm in the first 50 pages of this magnificent book. Thus far into it I can say it's a must read for all who consider themselves a conservative.

Our most effective weapon now is Snake Hunters Weblog, where we chase vipers that fly planes into buildings, strap bombs on their women & kids, and they enrich U-235.

We invite comments from L & R, and we delete the foul-mouthed. So, record your opinion, anonymously if
you wish, with a first name & town.
