I just finished Garrison Keillor's "Homegrown Democrat".
A quick read but a wonderful book. I recommend it to everybody.

1. Thanks
I have it sitting in my Amazon shopping cart along with:

Crossing the Rubicon: The Decline of the American Empire at the End of the Age of Oil - Michael C. Ruppert

The New Pearl Harbor: Disturbing Questions About the Bush Administration and 9/11 - David Ray Griffin


The Puzzle Palace: A Report on America's Most Secret Agency - James Bamford

Crusade : Chronicles of an Unjust War (The American Empire Project) - James Carroll

Blood and Oil : The Dangers and Consequences of America's Growing Petroleum Dependency (The American Empire Project) - Michael T. Klare

Crimes Against Nature : How George W. Bush and His Corporate Pals Are Plundering the Country and Hijacking Our Democracy - Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Saw Robert Kennedy Jr. on Real Time and decided I needed to read his book. The others were authors who have been recently interviewed on CSPAN - Booknotes.

Have you read any of these?

I've amassed a very liberal left home library for my Grands. And in the process have learned so much.

3. LOL
:hug:

It's amazing how much catch-up I've had to do. It's the only thing I can credit bush. He's made me very aware that we can't trust our government and must take responsibilty for educating ourselves.
