PREPARE TO BE STUNNED: Karl Rove went out of his way recently to personally insult the author face to face, ranting that the book is "a poorly researched piece of trash." A few days later, Wright brought Dennis Miller to tears of laughter discussing WTF. In other words, this book is on target! Using stories, analogy, history and enough humor to keep the reader grinning, Wright tags Rove and the Republican establishment - and the entire ruling class culture in fact - with a reality lesson that is an easy and inspirational read. The work elicits equal parts "finally someone said that" and "never thought about it like that" responses - as that strange unsettled feeling you have about Washington Republicans is clarified like never before. While written in response to the 2012 election, this prophetic book is relevant to future elections, and more importantly, astonishingly pertinent to todays big issues - including the IRS scandal, Obama Care, the NSA scandal, the Pigford scandal, immigration reform and others. If timing is everything, then this book is everything. From an author who has written extensively for years about the economy, politics, business, the Tea Party and the Republican establishment for Breitbart and American Thinker, this work is not a second guessing or Monday morning quarterback piece. Join Wright ahead of the curve, and you'll see why some think he is the next hot conservative prophet and author. Written in the same conversational style that has won him many friends in the talk radio and cable universe over the past weeks, this journey is like a stimulating dinner conversation - and you might imagine Mark Steyn and Ann Coulter at dinner with you - with Wright's well placed biting irony. There is no book that examines the Republican establishment this way, and no book Rove and his consultant cronies fear as much. And there is no book as perfect for the current civil war within conservatism - making complex issues simple and connecting all these dots seamlessly to the bigger currents of tension in the country as well.
About the Author: C. Edmund Wright has been observing and commenting on the failures of the Republican Establishment since 1992, first dealing with them as part of the Bush Quayle Campaign Team. He has been warning about the most over rated political guru of all time, Karl Rove, since 2000. The disaster of the 2012 campaign, not to mention Rove's comments since, have suddenly validated Wright's long held contentions. He has been right all along. Ensconced firmly outside the Washington beltway, Wright draws on his experience in reality as a businessman, husband and father - as well as his sublimely singular way of explaining cause and effect, to make his points. Telling stories that are punctuated by a sharp sardonic sense of humor and irony, Wright's specialty is weaving seemingly tangential issues into his main theme. Living in North Carolina with his wife and youngest child, he contributes to the American Thinker, ghost writes for some well known political and media figures, and works for Marketel Media among other business interests. His hope is that his books will inspire equal parts "finally someone said that"and "wow, never thought about it like that" responses.
