Christina’s Common Sense

There are numerous good things about being a card-carrying member of Young America’s Foundation. One of them is that you wander around CPAC and get free books that haven’t been published yet. Actually, I lied. Anyone could do that. But it’s still cool to be a card-carrying Young America’s Foundation member. You should look into it.

The free not-yet-published book in question is A Conservative History of the American Left by Daniel J Flynn. Having heard Flynn speak before and read some of his columns, I had high expectations. They were not disappointed.

With exhaustive research and dry wit, Flynn exposes the origins and history of current American liberalism. The history is not a flattering one—I mean, if your ideology’s history was one of racism, sexism, eugenics, and communism wouldn’t you want to forget that too? Well, if you’re a liberal, Dan Flynn has revealed that to be your movement’s sad story.

Flynn does a masterful job of showing that the current liberal ideas of big government and lack of personal freedom can trace their origins to the landing on Plymouth Rock. The current liberals use the same schemes that have been tried and have failed for centuries. There is truly nothing new under the sun.

A Conservative History of the American Left will be on sale April 29, but Amazon is currently taking pre-orders. You should order this book if you want a well-done, insightful, and accurate look at the origins of today’s loony left.
