Book
The Secret Knowledge: On the Dismantling of American Culture
David Mamet made a stir in 2008 with his Village Voice essay, “Why I Am No Longer a Brain-Dead Liberal.” This book is a fuller, wittier, and more scathing treatment of the same subject—a liberal screenwriter who has “seen the light.”

Mamet has a new book out about how he became a Conservative. I’m in the queue for it at the library.
He meets with sowell and is a big fan.

"The question is can he run on his record in 2012 and the answer is no"
This is where the Pubbies should concentrate their campaign. Bambi has been a total failure even for the completely far left kooks. Of course they won't vote (R) anyway but they might just stay home and hit the bong one more time.

"The question is can he run on his record in 2012 and the answer is no, because it's abysmal. He took a trillion dollars and where it went, nobody knows. He dismantled health care, he weakened America around the world, he sold out the state of Israel. All he's got to run on is being a Democrat... Note to Pubbie Politicians: This should be on every billboard in the country. It should be your talking points until the election. Unfortunately a lot of you (Pubbie Politicians) don't/won't get it.

Mamet was a creator of the TV series "THE UNIT." My agent is trying to get a ftf with him on his next trip to Hollywood to pitch some of my properties to him (including two series pilots).

Mamet's book is about the herd mentality of the left, and Ann Coulter's book is about the violent mob tendencies of the left.
Both I read, both are excellent. Similar themes, very different writers, different experiences...Coulter references the French Revolution to successful effect.
I love e-books!!!

But what Mamet and Palin fans really want to know is...does she get the coffee and the Eldorado?

-I highly recommend his book, it's a primer for anyone who wants to know
conservatism, as an introduction or refresher. This book should be required
reading for every high school senior.

Most Republican Politicians including people like Boehner are afraid to stick their head up out of the foxhole because they fear being Palinized. Because Palin is honest and rock solid she can survive the media scrutiny, but a lot of these guys know they would end up like Weiner if they decided to get aggressive with Obama.

I am just finishing Primetime Propaganda by Ben Shapiro. It’s a must-read. Inteerviews with TV creative people as well as execs, all totally frank about their desire to push gay marriage, teenage sexuality etc. Also an interesting view of the Frankfort School. I love it. the writer is only 27.

>Why, if he so loves small-town America and its values, does he live in the liberal enclave of Los Angeles? “There is a lot of work. My wife works there,”<
Same here. I’m in the “biz” here in L.A. and my GF is on the top of her profession working at Cedars Sinai. We may be surrounded by idiot liberals but they cant and WONT wear us down with their nonsense.
To: Hojczyk
I’m not quite sure where I stand with this guy. If he’s genuine, my congrats on him seeing the light.

The struggle of the Left to rationalize its positions is an intolerable, Sisyphean burden. I speak as a reformed Liberal. -- David Mamet
