About this title

Synopsis:

Sarah Palin has become the face of the growing Tea Party movement to such as extent that some view this as her path to the White House in 2012. As Obama's popularity falls, the conservative right are rounding their troops, ready to attack. With stunning cynicism, right-wing pundit Glenn Beck has tried to hijack the legacy of Tom Paine - patriot, visionary and American founder. Kahn seeks to revaluate what is public and what is private, explore the importance of environmental costs and demystify the false debates which distract from the really important issues.
