Freep This Book: That's Not What They Meant!
Amazon ^

Posted on 01/08/2013 1:52:09 PM PST by Jacquerie

Remember how the DUs trashed Mark Levin's books at Amazon? Well, here is our chance. Some English prof named Michael Austin wrote a scatterbrained hit piece that is full of cheap shots directed at the Tea Party, Mark Levin, Hannity, etc. To do this, he took teaspoons from various works of our Framers, mixed them up with some Howard Zinn, and baked them with social justice gravy at high heat.

Wanna see how the left corrupts our college kids? Here it is.


TOPICS: Books/Literature; Education
KEYWORDS: academicbias; antiamericanism; constitution; framers; revisionisthistory; thebiglie
Full title: That's Not What They Meant!: Reclaiming the Founding Fathers from America's Right Wing

Click the link and give this radical leftist clown Austin the zero rating he deserves!

Click on the book and read some of Austin’s idiocy.

Click on the “customer reviews” in very small print.

Click on “create your own review.”

Make a comment and click on the leftmost star.

"Did George Washington actually lead an army, or just send forth Hillary's great great great grandmother to Lexington Green and Concord Bridge ?

Did Thomas Jefferson really write the 4th amendment because he didn't want to get busted selling crack ?

Does the phrase "The Right of the People" actually mean "the right of the people" or is it a skull and bones code phrase for an orgy invitation ?

Don't worry, Marxist professors like this author wouldn't lie.... ;)

Wow, so of those reviewers have an attitude problem. ;)

Also helpful to hit all the “Did you find this review helpful”s.

Say yes to the negative reviews (one star) and no to the positive ones (five stars).

Bookmarked. Your timing is good. I’m going to order The Other Irish: The Scots-Irish Rascals Who Made America, later- so I’ll do this while I’m there..

A proper FReeping is in order for this political polemic. Reading the TOC and he Kindle sample took my breath away. This is a college professor writing this leftist hatchet job on the Founding Fathers, the Tea Party and Conservatives in general.

My book, Lost in Zombieland, The Rise of President Zero, received a blistering Amazon trouncing from the DU leftists and I still get vindictive hits from them, even though they haven’t read the book. They can’t get past the cover.

I’ll send a free ebook (Lost in Zombieland, the Rise of President Zero) to any Freeper who emails me at jt@jthatter.com. I ask for a 5-star review to counter the leftists who flame me on Amazon.com.

Make sure you find the other reviews “helpful”.

Yep. Dig theirs and bump ours. I read excerpts of the book for half an hour or so and was disgusted.
