Armed madhouse who's afraid of Osama Wolf?, China floats, Bush sinks, the scheme to steal '08, no child's behind left, and other dispatches from the front lines of the class war Hardback - 2006
by Greg Palast
The 'top journalist in America and the funniest' (Randi Rhodes, Air America), takes his previous New York Times bestseller a step further with hot undercover dispatches hanging out the dirty underpants of the 'armed and dangerous clowns that rule us.'
A White House spokesman said, 'We hate that sonovabitch.' They're not alone: From corporate suites to Osama's cave, they fear what Britain's Guardian calls 'investigations up there with Woodward and Bernstein and a lot funnier.' But Greg Palast's fanatic following (nearly two million readers of his Web column) has made him 'a cult fave among progressives' (Village Voice) who can't wait for his next release.
Palast's old-style gum-shoe detective work to dig out the info on the War on Terror, greed-dripping schemes to seize little nations with lots of oil, the hidden program to steal the 2008 election, and the media biases that keep it unreported are the meat and bones of this BBC television reporter's new book. Armed Madhouse is illustrated with dozens of documents marked 'secret' and 'confidential' that have walked out of file cabinets and fallen into Palast's hands.
You won't find Palast in The New York Times (except its bestseller list), but you will read his reports on the hottest Web sites worldwide, hear him regularly on Air America and the Pacifica radio networks, and see his stories reappearing as the basis for Eminem's hit video 'Mosh,' Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11, and sampled by a dozen of today's top platinum rock artists.
Summary
