        Book Description

        Few have the time or constitution to be able to remember the details of every horror story about how the Republican Party has repeatedly attempted to hijack the American dream for its own selfish reasons. For those who want to be sure they’re not left sputtering in an argument they know they should win hands-down, The I Hate Republicans Reader—via a wide range of lively and entertaining essays, articles, speeches, and rants—will be the place to go for the many compelling reasons to detest the GOP. From era-defining scandals such as Watergate, Iran-Contra, and Enron to coldhearted policies on health care, welfare, and race, to their outrageous theft of the 2000 election and tearing down of the liberal democratic ideals for which the Founding Fathers fought, to the isolationist arrogance of George W. Bush, this book has it all. Divided into such easy-reference sections as Greed, Corruption, Malicious Stupidity, and Big Lies, this collection includes appropriate excerpts from the likes of Eric Schlosser, Michael Moore, Joan Didion, Molly Ivins and Lou Dubose, and David Brock, as well as Ralph Nader, Paul Krugman, Hunter S. Thompson, Barbara Ehrenreich, I.F. Stone, Jimmy Carter, James Carville, Christopher Hitchens, Al Franken, and Bill Moyers.

        5 out of 5 stars Why, you ask?.......2007-07-18

        Why the hate? Because we hate evil. The root of modern Republican ideology is what should be hated, because it has brought so much damage to this country, caused the deaths of at least 100,000 innocents in other lands, and they do all they can to wreck the ideals of the US Constitution. Those who don't speak out against their dark agenda, are complicit in the Republican criminal tendedncies.

        1 out of 5 stars all hate, no analysis.......2007-07-16


        Many ratings of political books seem based on liking or disliking the claims of the book.
        This review is based on more substantial considerations.

        I thought it was time for a political book, so I got this one and Limbaugh's "Bankrupt".
        In some ways they are similar; each tries to demonize the opposition, and each attacks on
        many fronts. Limbaugh's book is mediocre and this one is far worse. In my review of
        "Tragedy and Farce: ..." I said there were better "I hate Republicans" books. Even with
        the title, this is not such a book.

        Right from the start, the book is wrong. The subtitle tells us "...the GOP is Totally Wrong
        About Everything." But most of the issues that separate the parties are not mentioned. Instead,
        we have personal attacks. An opinion is wrong because the speaker is bald, or is developing
        a bald spot or other equally relevant reasons.

        The front matter tells us this book will help you win any argument with any conservative.
        There are some facts that might help you, and many claims that might help you convince a
        really dumb person that does not know what a logical argument is, but there is not much
        that will help you with an open minded skeptic. Partly that is because there are few well
        constructed arguments. There is mostly a bunch of name calling and accusations. "You're dumb
        and your mother wears combat boots and I'm not going to invite you to my birthday party,
        so there." Partly it is because you can not find what you might want to use. The table of
        contents lists some general areas as chapter titles and gives the names of some of the authors
        whose works are reprinted in the chapter. The first page of each chapter supplies the name
        of each author. There is no index. There are few references.

        There are many anagrams, convincing proof to some readers, I suppose. This book might appeal to
        the left wing equivalents of Russ Limbaugh's dittoheads.

        The best section is a reprint from The Onion, a spoof of a Bush speech just before the swearing in.
        It was funny. The next best was an article from Greg Palast, claiming he had two CDs showing
        the evil party had purged the voter rolls of likely Democrats months before the election. It had
        charges I had not heard before. It also had some references, but most of them were just to where
        he had managed to get the same accusations published previously. I asked for the CDs he said came
        from the Florida Secretary of State and proved the evil deed. I got a reply almost immediately,
        asking for clarification. I then provided all the details that were in the article. There has been
        silence for over two weeks, so I suspect the charge can not be substantiated. I'll try to remember
        to post an update if I ever get the "evidence".

        Some of the claims are true. Bush had some dealings that reminded me of Hillary's cattle futures
        trading. Some are likely to be true, but unprovable. How Bush and Dan Quayle got into the
        National Guard smells like string pulling, for example.

        The book is an anthology. The editor selected previously published material that the owner was
        willing to have included. Many of the articles are opinion pieces from newspapers or magazines.
        Those typically select some facts to stress and ignore others. Consider the Bush tax cuts. Democrats
        say the rich saved millions and the poor got nothing. Republicans say everyone that paid income
        taxes saved ( the really poor pay no income tax) and the top few percent paid a bigger share of
        the total after the cut. Both are correct. Different people attach different values to the facts.
        But this book is not about different opinions about the significance of certain facts. It is about
        hate. Those with the wrong opinions are not just wrong, but evil. Some times they are simultaneously
        stupid and evil, criminal geniuses.

        Those that want a daily fix of hate can read this book or visit some blogs. Those hoping for
        information about issues should look elsewhere.

        3 out of 5 stars Honest reviewing, dishonest elections.......2006-10-14

        Giving a book one star because you are upset with its title is a waste of time. I don't like rodents but I don't complain about "Of Mice and Men."

        Now, for a review of the book. I believe the talking points on the "I Hate Republicans Reader" are fantastic. They are well researched, many of the facts are documented (some are individual accounts, which obviously cannot be readily verified) and each has a running theme of disappointment with the GOP which I always approve of. It displays the horrors of the Reagan Administration to the "A-Okay with racism" style of Bush. I'd like to note that it differentiates between republicans (everyday GOP members) and Republicans (republicans in office). This is an attack against the capital "R" and it should be read as such.

        However, what it has in information it lacks in style and use. Clearly its title scares away any curious moderate who wants to see what liberal leaders have to say and why (not to mention all the republicans - small "r" - who at least should read it so they know what to discuss with us). But that is not all - it is written in a style that is defeatist. It tells of great horrors but not action, when this is obviously a book that is attempting to promote political action. Therefore, it falls short of its goals. I also think it was a poor choice to put Michael Moore as the first essay, because he is barely respected among democrats (for all those curious why I said that, his facts ARE facts, but his inferences are unprovable which makes him lose credibility).

        I encourage republicans to read it, even if you disagree, so you at least know how to discuss it in a civilized fashion. Really, I recommend this book, but it receives three stars because it falls short of its purpose.

        1 out of 5 stars THEY STILL DON'T GET IT!.......2006-02-23

        The party of hate just don't get it. Their obligation to preserve, protect, and defend this nation takes a backseat to their personal and political pursuits.... they foolishly and relentlessly attack and undermine the very policies and institutions that have made our country a beacon of liberty and prosperity. They've wasted decades vehemently slandering conservatives as "extreme" and "dangerous"-conservatives who make it their life-long mission to stand up for the rule of law, a growing economy, small government, and a strong "@$$ whipping" military... This author still dosn't see (because he's blinded by HATE,) the true danger-or what we need to do about them... I already know what needs to be done to protect the future of this country, for my children, my children's children, and yes, you libs'... You may not want to admit it but since September 11, 2001, it was clear to the world: AMERICA IS AT WAR... so get out of the way and AT LEAST let the military protect us from your stupid interferences and terrorist who want to harm us... you are doing more harm than good and it is clear (crystal) that we have not been attacked since 9/11 thanks to our troops... (Do you think you can go about your days if the war was here, right now? Think about that one.) Quit trying to tie the President's hands with pointless, pathetic, political arguments. It's a lot of talk, but you ain't sayin' nothin'.

        1 out of 5 stars SHOULD BE ZERO STARS..........2005-11-17

        This is everything that is wrong with party politics in America. My party - right or wrong. Forget what is in the best interest of the nation. Much of the writing and the ideas expressed are roughly equivalent to a junior high school understanding. Way too much emotion and ranting, with, as I said before, not enough real analysis of what is good for the country. These people (party politicians) are what is going to destroy America. And it is happening, at a far faster rate that even Rome fell.

        1 out of 5 stars An Insult to Disney Fans.......2001-03-19

        This should have been titled "Universal Studios Like a Pro" (in fact, the later edition is "Orlando Like a Pro"). The author spends most of the book pointing out how much more he likes Universal Studios over Disney World. Not only are his tips about Disney World useless, but many of his 'facts' are dead wrong (for example,'like a pro' he tells his readers that the stretching room in the Haunted Mansion ride at Disney World doesn't use elevators, which it does. He erroneously calls the Enchanted Tiki Room attraction "Tropical Serenade", etc). An insult to Disney fans and a poor guide book. Thumbs down to Foder's for not checking his 'facts' for accuracy.

        4 out of 5 stars An insider's guide to the world's most overwhelming resort........1997-07-07

        On a recent peak summer season visit to Orlando's overwhelming and expensive collection of theme parks and tourist traps, we found this book of tips, secrets and hints by an Orlando native to be useful, though not always applicable. Some advice was dead-on perfect (parking secrets & ponchos), other hints were intermittently so (how to avoid long-lines - sorry Rick, even at 11pm, Space Mountain was nearly an hour in the left hand line), and still others nearly useless (discount or free tickets demand strong sales resistance).

        The individual ride attraction reviews alone were far more honest and informative than the brief discriptions in the official guide maps. Worth the price of the book alone, we referred to them often throughout our visit - especially when trying to decide if the wait for Back to the Future was worth it (it was).

                    In a world where someone is pulling everyone's strings, and it seems there is no escape from the hidden hand of shadowy powers, the only thing that might set you free is good old-fashioned absurdity, and Axis Mundi Sum is the place to find it.

                    5 out of 5 stars Best book I read in a long time.......2007-06-08

                    Its a very intertaining book from a smart author who has a very interesting view at the world around him. its fun to read and there is somethng to like for everybody. I loved it. plus the smith Brothers are very sexy thats one good reason to buy it.

                    2 out of 5 stars Where's the ending?.......2004-07-13

                    I was very disappointed with this book. Although I liked the characters, and enjoyed many of the situations they were put into (the reason it gets two stars from me), I was quite put off by the writer's clumsy and toothless gimmick of injecting himself - a godlike being, the author - as a character in his own book. Bo-ring! And the ending? There is no ending! Auuugh! Perhaps this is the first book in a trilogy? If not, it's even worse. Don't waste your money. Buy anything from Dan Brown, instead.

                    Best book ever! I would recommend this book to everyone. The quick wit and dark humor mixed with adventure and conspiracies will keep you from putting this book down.

                    4 out of 5 stars Madcap!.......2004-01-20

                    If your sense of humour tends to run to the anti-social, or at least weird, this is a book worth reading. It moves pretty quickly and smoothly, so you barely notice that the novel is almost 500 pages long, and the characters, while all over the place (in more ways than one), range from amusing to downright absurd. Not that that's an insult, since I got the impression this book is supposed to be absurd, and not in a highbrow sense.

                    All in all, if you enjoy manic writing and plenty of strange characters and plots, you should do what Joe Bob Briggs used to recommend on Monstervision: "check it out."

                    4 out of 5 stars an entertaining first novel.......2003-10-07

                    I have completely enjoyed reading this book. The prose crackles with the sly, sometimes arrogant wit of the author, and the plot (well, I use that term loosely) is engaging and the characters intriguing. Pop and subculture references abound, and some of the more obscure references are worth a snicker to the reader with eclectic tastes. One of the more amusing facets of the book is the way the author inserts himself into the story with a nod and a wink (or perhaps a raised glass) to the reader. One of the things I liked most about this work was the blend of supernatural and conspiritorial elements; Did they combine into a cohesive plot? Well, this writer is perhaps not qualified to say. Buy it and read it, even if you decide you hate it, I challenge you not to be entertained.

                    4 out of 5 stars Nice but not for Mage.......2003-08-11

                    As much as I enjoyed reading this book and think it's a nice supplement for Werewolf, I can't see why White Wolf recommended it for Mage. Other than a short little paragraph in an info box, the book made little reference to Mage.

                    3 out of 5 stars A good book, but not good enough........2001-03-08

                    This is a pretty good book. If you are looking for information on some of the spirits who support the totems of the werewolf tribes, then this book is for you. You won't be disappointed.

                    However, I was disappointed with this book. The main reason for this is that I thought this book wasn't far reacing enough. According to the Werewolf universe, the Umbra is populated with thousands, if not millions, of different kinds of spirits, each with their own personality archetypes, wants, desires, interests, etc. But this book focuses mainly on the small number who serve the major tribe totems. This small slice of the spirit world is hardly fulfilling.

                    Another problem is that the book makes no attempt to describe how the spirits interact with each other, how any of the hierarchies of the totems work, or how any other spirits really behave or act out in the day-to-day life of the Umbra. Spirits are described as if their only purpose is to interact with the werewolves and not as if they are each self-sufficient entities.

                    So this book is good for what it is, but like many other White-Wolf supplements it fails to be all it could be. A much better book would have given more over-arching spirit information on a macro level so us creative-types could use the information they provided to populate our games with interesting individual spirits on a micro level.

                    2 out of 5 stars This book wasn't good as I expected..........1998-09-28

                    I thought Axis Mundi would be a valuable aquisition to my werewolf stories, but wasn't. The mage storytellers will not understand why, whitewolf told that book would be useful for Mage campaigns. I wasted my money... Don't do the same mistake

                    5 out of 5 stars A sourcebook for White Wolf's "Storyteller System".......1997-06-29

                    This is a must-have for any Storyteller that deals with the Umbra and spirits, for Mage or Werewolf. It is a very information-rich sourcebook, full of guidelines and expanded rules on spirits, and packed with information on the spirits themselves. There is a spiritual history of the Garou that is very informative
