“What are they so afraid of?”
Buffeted by a series of attacks by White House spokesmen and left-leaning media, conservative publisher Regnery (sister company to HE.com) has decided to come out swinging. Long slated for an October release, Regnery moved up the release date for bestselling author Dinesh D’Souza’s controversial new book, The Roots of Obama’s Rage, to this coming Monday, September 27. The new date will be just in time to respond to the front-page hit piece rumored to be coming in (where else?) the New York Times this weekend.
The White House has been “generous” with its attention – vilifying not only D’Souza, but also Forbes (which ran a preview of the book as the cover story in their September 27 issue) and former speaker Newt Gingrich (who praised the Forbes article), all for having the temerity to suggest that President Obama’s motivation might not be what he claims. After lambasting both the magazine and the Speaker on national TV, White House spokesman Robert Gibbs then called Forbes's Washington bureau chief Brian Wingfield into the White House to read him the riot act.
“The reason the White House is so upset about my argument,” says D’Souza, “is because it finally offers an explanation of what President Obama is doing that makes sense of both his foreign and his domestic policy. Unlike those who describe Obama’s worldview as pro-socialist or racially-motivated, much less those who claim Obama is a secret Muslim or born outside the U.S., my thesis is far more straightforward and much more frightening.”
“Anyone who says this thesis is not backed up by research simply hasn’t bothered to read my book,” continues D’Souza. “My thesis is completely substantiated, often drawing from Obama’s own words and writings, and those of his virulently anti-colonialist father.”
Adds Regnery Publisher Marji Ross, “Frankly, virtually no one has had a chance to read Dinesh’s book yet, since it’s literally days off the press, so why attack something you haven’t even read? I have to wonder what they are so afraid of.”
After the desperate attacks in the past two weeks, we expect the MSM and the White House to be foaming at the mouth when The Roots of Obama’s Rage hits the stores and D’Souza takes to the airwaves Monday to actually defend the book. Stay tuned...
The Roots of Obama’s Rage will be available at bookstores nationwide on Monday, September 27. It is available for pre-order at Amazon.com and BarnesandNoble.com
Not sure where to post a comment..I ordered the audio book..from audible. OMG! Now I See! Before I was blinded intentionally by Obama.
This book is amazingly well thought out! Obama is a just “man” of his experiences. which are Not solely American influenced. He takes on the spirit of anger from His Father/Ancestors and all of the imperialized. Everyone should Be careful of taking on the rage of others. It really isn’t yours. .No One can run a White House with deep-seated grudges and be successful...No where did Dinesh say that it was American interests in Africa..but british. Obama just assumes rage by assimilating and taking on his father’s spirit of rage.. Not good..it isn’t his battle..but made it his own. His father failed..Obama is sure too also. it is a private war with-in obama. I don’t want to be part of His rage. We are beyond that as a free people. Him taking on the roll of a ‘deliverer” Will he be hailed as a Moses for the Africans and the imperialized?? Hmmm...He will have to move back to Africa taking his First Lady and children and live by His own principles..Why does he need a White House? He is telling everyone else to live in huts. He should start..by walking his talk. He is such an irony. Now I understand the First Lady’s Living it up in the White house and all the parties.. on our dime. It is a snub to us and to those that suffer in our country..Is the 1st lady saying? “See World how I make them wince?. SEE? Now you get some of your own medicine back..Don’t like it? tough..I am owed..due to your imperialism. (grudges) She is a selfish woman..what about those in Africa? or America that still struggle because of Dem policies? Where are their donations to the poor? It will only backfire on them..terribly..They don’t walk their talk..just their rage rages.
