Summary: Corruption and Dishonesty, by fermed
Review: This is the third in a series of books by James Bovard in which he itemizes the abuses of power carried out by the Clinton-Gore team. The others ("Lost Rights," 1995; "Freedom in Chains," 1999) touch on some of the material that appears here, but there are enough new outrages in "Feeling Your Pain" that it is worthwhile to read this volume in addition to the others. What Clinton-Gore did to the nation was so evil that it is this book which should have been the template for Clinton's impeachment proceedings. He should have been tried not for his erectile misadventures and ensuing lies, but for gross violation of his oath of office and the abuses of power with which Clinton ruled. Unfortunately, most of the citizenry has not and never will read the truth about Clinton's regimen. What we are seeing in recent months in terms of the last minute thievery and corruption is but the tail end of 8 years of dishonest government. Each chapter in the book is carefully annotated, and a good index to the volume allows the reader to move back and forth cross referencing items. It is highly recommended for those who feel that too much "Clinton bashing" has been taking place lately. He deserves much more censure than he has received; in fact, he has gotten away with most of his misdeeds.

Summary: James Bovard offers his keen insight on liberty vs. tyranny.
Review: Who will win out in the 21st century? The forces of collectivism, statism and the welfare-warfare state or the ideals of individual liberty, personal responsibility, and a constitutionally limited government. The 1990's has been a time of explosive growth for the forces of statism under the Clinton administration... Bovard chronicles the attack on liberty under the Clintonista regime. The rising tide of statism is alarming... A large portion of all economic growth during these times was siphoned off by the government. I recommend all of James Bovard's books...
