Summary: More Liberal Trash
Comment: I am sick and tired of hearing from the extreme left about the injustices our government perpetrates on it own citizens, and this is a perfect example of how Lefties are marginalizing themselves with their extreme liberal ideas.
"Congress shall make no law... abridging the freedom of speech" Who are they looking out for? Not YOU!! Now the Patriot Act, that is sensible legislation. Now President Bush, that is a man who is looking out for you.
Our government needs to shut down unpatriotic speech like Al Franken. That man needs to just shut up and this "Bill O'Rights" is infringing on our governments ability to protect itself from people like Mr. Franken and my copyright. I am currently sueing the Founding Fathers for copyright infringment of my name. I have FOXNews lawyers working round the clock to change the name to "Unneeded Amendments to the Constitution that Inhibit the Ability of our Government to Protect its People."
To the Founding Father is say to you, "shut up! You had your 35 minutes! Shut up!"
Also, my book Those Who Trespass is on sale at book retailers everwhere.

Summary: Slim, but Powerful
Comment: This is a quick and slim collection of founding American documents. Being small it fits anywhere, on your shelf or in the schoolbag. Get it for Poli. Sci. students, Law Students, and Historians, or for you patriotic friend for the Fourth of July or Patriot Day.
It has the basics that every American needs to know. It has the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, plus speeches form Washington, Jefferson, Jackson, Lincoln, and the Gettysburg Address. You get a good feel for the movers and shakers at this nations founding.
Ignorance is an unpardonable sin. We need to understand the past to understand the present. We need to get back to these ancient and sacred writings to understand our country. They are a trustworthy and reliable source of information about who we are.
There are several omissions. I would have like to have the Mayflower Compact included. The Monroe Doctrine was also missing-terrible shame! I would have also to have the Northwest Ordinance. Furthermore, it would be helpful to have the Articles of Confederation. The Constitution only makes sense in context of the mistakes of the Articles of Confederation. Lastly, I would have included more from the Federalist Papers, such as 1, 2,13, 14, 55 and 84. But this would have bloated the book, thus loosing it's slim effectiveness.
Maybe they could put all of this in a Volume II.
