FUNNY. FRIGHTENING. TRUE. It happens to all of us: You're minding your own business,
when some idiot informs you that guns are evil, the Prius
will save the planet, or the rich have to finally start
paying their fair share of taxes. Just go away! you think to yourself -- but they only become
more obnoxious. Your heart rate quickens. You start to
sweat. You can't get away. Your only hope is... ...this book. Glenn Beck, author of the #1 New York Times bestsellers An
Inconvenient Book and Glenn Beck's Common Sense, has
stumbled upon the secret formula to winning arguments
against people with big mouths but small minds: knowing the
facts. And this book is full of them. The next time your Idiot Friends tell you how gun control
prevents gun violence, you'll tell them all about England's
handgun ban (see page 53). When they tell you that we should
copy the UK's health-care system, you'll recount the
horrifying facts you read on page 244. And the next time an
idiot tells you that vegetable prices will skyrocket without
illegal workers, you'll stop saying "no, they won't" and
you'll start saying, "actually, eliminating all illegal
labor will cause us to spend just $8 a year more on
produce." (See page 139.) Idiots can't be identified through voting records, they can
be found only by looking for people who hide behind
stereotypes, embrace partisanship, and believe that bumper
sticker slogans are a substitute for common sense. If you
know someone who fits the bill, then Arguing with Idiots
will help you silence them once and for all with the
ultimate weapon: the truth.
