"Backlash: Right-Wing Radicals, High-Def Hucksters, and Paranoid Politics in the Age of Obama"
by Will Bunch

Will Bunch, the author of the brilliant Reagan biography "Tear Down This Myth," has done it again. His latest book, "Backlash: Right-Wing Radicals, High-Def Hucksters, and Paranoid Politics in the Age of Obama," is an extraordinarily readable, vividly real-to-life and broad-in-scope view of the Tea Party movement - this book could have been a movie. Bunch's writing style is so evocative that he brings every sense - sight, smell, sound etc. - to Tea Party movements and activities all across the United States, bringing to life in all its insane glory this bizarre, right-wing phenomenon sweeping our nation.

1. I've been thinking about the holiday season coming up, that book
sounds like a nice gift for one of my sons who needs to be educated a little about repubs. He's union and I've made a lot of progress but I always have the feeling he's telling me what he knows I want to hear...LOL.

2. I finished reading this book last week
I highly recommend it for the insight into the people in the Tea Party, 9-12'ers, Oath Keepers, etc.
