Offer by Ralph Nader of 'Cruel and Unusual' by Mark Crispin

[john geraghty]

Hello all,
I thought that activist type members of the forum might avail of this.
I received an email from the Nader/Camejo team with an offer.
24 copies of 'Cruel and Unusual' by Mark Crispin Miller. Mr. Miller is a professor of media studies at New York University.

Here is the blurb from the publisher.

A mordant and passionate exposé of the right-wing threat to American democracy and freedom. Read a newspaper or catch the news on television, and you might get the impression that America's current leadership is "mainstream": perhaps a bit more conservative and in its foreign policy more belligerent than its predecessors, but still a federal authority that functions within America's political traditions.

But as Mark Crispin Miller argues here with great clarity and effect, we are in fact living in a state that would appall the Founding Fathers: a state that is neither democratic nor republican, and no more "conservative" than it is liberal. He exposes the Bush Republicans' contempt for democratic practice, their bullying religiosity, their reckless militarism, their apocalyptic views of the economy and the planet, and—above all—their emotional dependence on sheer hatefulness.

Abraham Lincoln once observed that, if the United States should ever be subverted, "it will be conquered from within." And that is exactly what has happened.



I'm counting my pennies to see if I can spare the cash. My only problem is that I have to give them all out by the time I leave D.C. for Ireland in August.
I think that buying these would come under the title of public service.

Of course you must first trust Mr.Naders judgement of the book, which personally, I do.
