The 2004 election was a watershed moment in our nation's
history, and while it was shocking to the left to see so
many red states on the electoral map, to conservatives it
was just an affirmation of what they'd known all along --
conservatives are the mainstream and liberals are the
fringe. It is not the time to rest or take things for granted, Mike
Gallagher argues. Not at all. "Maintaining America's role
as the greatest nation in the world means we must stay the
course," he writes, adding, "Liberal idiocy surrounds us
all. It threatens to destroy the values and lifestyles that
millions of us cherish." The left has targeted every value and standard, principle
and idea, concept of God, family, honor, duty, country, and
decency that we hold dear. As the nation battles for its
very soul in this post-9/11 world, we have Mike Gallagher
to help fight against the agenda-driven liberal lunatics. The liberal loons are everywhere and Gallagher takes them
all on: disgraced President Bill Clinton, and -- perish the
thought! -- possible future president and carpetbagger
Hillary Clinton; the People for the Ethical Treatment of
Animals (PETA), an organization that values the lives of
bugs over humans; and the anti-Bush propagandist filmmaker,
Michael Moore. Then there's Gallagher's confrontation with the
unpredictable, angry, and bitter bestselling author,
liberal pundit, and comedian Al Franken -- the story of his
anti-Dixie Chicks concert in protest of their un-American
comments -- and race-baiters like Al Sharpton and big-mouth
out-of-touch Hollywood elitists like Tim Robbins, Susan
Sarandon, and Whoopi Goldberg. Surrounded by Idiots is an important -- not to mention
entertaining -- look at where America is today and the
possibility that the future of America will only get
brighter.
