When he is simply in the business of reporting the facts, Germond does very well. And american essays to his credit, he acknowledges being both a liberal and an atheist. The downside - and the reason I can't give this book four or five stars - is that some of his errors are basic demagoguery. The book also suffers from at least two time errors, one being that the David Duke-Edwin Edwards Louisiana governor's race american essays was in 1991 (the book says american essays 1997). But he trashes Senator Saxby Chambliss of Georgia as a 'deservedly obscure' Congressman who (Germond claims)questioned the patriotism of then Senator Max Cleland in the 2002 Georgia Senate race. Germond paints a fraudulent portrait of Cleland as war hero who lost three limbs on the battlefield (Germond fails to mention that Cleland himself admits he lost them in a party atmosphere, not during an attack) and Chambliss questioned Cleland's service.
