Negative Positive
Title: straw men
Review: I bought the book based on the title. I was disappointed.The author doesn't raise the points and arguments that liberals raise; I should know such points and arguments, as I am a liberal! Instead, the author raises points and arguments that are easy to bat down... and proceeds to do so.I thought I might learn something from the way liberal ideas were swatted down; I just became exasperated, as the arguments that were batted down were ridiculous ideas.In order for such a book to be written, the author would have to know the ideas and priorities liberals REALLY take seriously. If a conservative uses this book as a guide to liberal thinking, the conservative would soon be in big trouble.
