p. 3 - "If only we could say, "To hell with the Democratic Party!" But part of the present American reality is that we live in a two-party system, and the Democratic Party is our only alternative. It's efficient-and expedient-to reform the existing party of the left, much as the conservative movement took over the Republican Party in the 1970s and converted it into he electoral powerhouse it is today."

p. 10 - "Assassination is not a moral question for such Theocons, but oral sex among consenting adults or the fleeting flash of a singer's breast on TV-now that could lay the nation's soul to waste."

p. 11 - "The party that vowed to get the government off people's backs in the 1970s and 1980s has become the party that vows to get government into the classroom and the bedroom-everywhere but the corporate boardroom."

p. 22 - "And suddenly, a Republican political establishment unconcerned with the hundreds of billions poured into faraway Iraq has become agitated at the thought of spending the tens of billions necessary to rebuild one of America's own cities."
