More about the book

If the election of Barack Obama fills you with dread, you're not alone. James Delingpole, having seen similar patterns before, warns that America is heading into a morass of sprawling government that will suffocate the economy, liberties, and culture. He identifies this as socialism, reminiscent of the transformation in Britain under Tony Blair, which left the nation weakened. In America, this change is packaged in the vibrant guise of Obama, but the outcome will be a shift from the brave American eagle to a dependent turkey, nurtured by figures like Obama, Clinton, Pelosi, and Reid. Delingpole, known for his sharp wit as a British political commentator, outlines the dire consequences ahead. From socialized medicine that discourages even necessary doctor visits to eco-fascism that squanders resources on protecting non-threatened species, he paints a bleak picture. Immigration non-reform will further confuse national identity, while an already failing education system will succumb to political correctness, banning competitive games for fear of harming self-esteem. The symptoms of decline are numerous, leading one to consider relocating to Albania for a better life. Hilarious and impassioned, this commentary will have you laughing through your tears while reaffirming the enduring strength of conservative values.
