This book is awesome. Grover Norquist is a one-of-a kind man in this world of Liberals. I reccomend this book to all the people out there. His evidence is rock solid and we should all resist taxes like Grover proclaims.
A very funny satire!

I like this book a lot. It's well written and funny. It's about an imaginary country just like America only it's a satire. I would like to meet the author Grover Norquist and see if he is as funny in person as this book is. He has a really good imagination. This book makes me want to be a comedy writer some day, too.
Recap of conservative ascendance through 1995
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 27 years ago
Norquist, the premier conservative activist in Washington today, writes of the ascendance of the Movement from both a personal and historical perspective. A Harvard graduate of the mid-1970s, Norquist emerged quickly during the Reagan years as one of the best organizers and issue advocates of his generation. He is a close Gingrich ally, but lacks the Speaker's baggage. He is alsoa monthly columnist for The American Spectator magazine. While a little rough around the edges (publisher VYTIS does not produce a polished volume), this book is a valuable tour of recent political events through the eyes of the post-Buckley, post-Reagan conservative generation. This is the meat of the argument advanced more humorously by writers such as P.J. O'Rourke (a Norquist friend) -- that freedom is the real goal, and government almost always gets in the way.
