Summer Reading List, Tea Party Selection
My professor at Tulane University recently distributed her Summer reading list. I thought I would share it with everyone. She is a republican, any democrats or independents want to share their list?
Ann Coulter, Guilty
Bernard Goldberg, A Slobbering Love Affair
Mark Levin, Liberty and Tyranny
Ronald J. Pestritto & William J. Atto, American Progressivism
W. Cleon Skousen (National Center for Constitutional Studies), The 5000 Year Leap
I can’t recommend The 5000 Year Leap enough on really understanding the constitution and the thinking behind each principle. You will find this a down to earth read and a must.
I admire Coulter’s wit, guts (she is fearless), and that she does her own research.
You will find the Goldberg book very easy read and he has some compelling facts to go with his stories about the media.
I hope to hit the other two before classes start, but have heard excerpts from Liberty and Tyranny.
To understand the other side you must read American Progressivism.
Future Reading List:
I am already building my next list for my next book order and hope to read –
Glenn Beck, Common Sense: The Case Against an Out-of-Control Government, Inspired by Thomas Paine (if you want to understand how the committee chairs in congress have all of the power and they are all statists).
Did pick up in Denver a very interesting history book, “The Worst Hard Time” by Timothy Egan. This is about the impact of the dust storms of the American High Plains and the impact on the communities and people that stayed and survived.
More to come . . .
For Your Young Children, Nieces, Nephews, Grandchildren:
I highly recommend the children books by Lynne Cheney. I am getting half of these for our niece for her August bday and the other half for Christmas.
