"From Dick Morris: How to reclaim government that truly represents Americans -- instead of ripping us off
Conservatives have good reason to be fed up. Wherever we look, in every sector of our economy and every level of our government and politics, it's obvious that the prevailing policies are deliberately designed to benefit an elite few at the expense of the rest of us. Special interests use their money and power to distort the legislative process and buy elections. Then there's the unmistakable bias of the mainstream media, and the craven way Washington insiders spin every political misstep for public consumption, while they scratch each other's backs to maintain the status quo.
It's time to transform our democracy back into what it was intended to be: no longer a government of the pampered congressmen, paid for by the lobbyists who pervert the process for the benefit of greedy special interests, but a government truly of the people, by the people, and for the people. In Outrage: How Liberals, Congress, Unions, Drug Companies, Big Oil, Banks, Lobbyists, Corporations, the United Nations, the World Bank, the INS, the TSA, and the Democratic Party Are Ripping Us Off...and What to Do About It, Dick Morris and Eileen McGann show just how bad things have gotten -- and outline a way to bring the American public square back to what it should be.
Morris and McGann offer a sobering chronicle of the outrages they've seen in government and business. But they do more than just describe them: they've come up with a series of concrete proposals to stop the outrages, to turn our country and our society around, and to help us all control our own future. That makes Outrage not just a cry of frustration, but a much-needed program for reclaiming what is ours: government of, by, and for the people."
