His hard-hitting critiques of Democrat and Republican administrations in "The Wall Street Journal," the "New York Times," "Newsweek," and other national publications have made him a "bipartisan scourge." Now, James Bovard launches a blistering attack on the Bush administration that will add new fuel to the fires of Bush opponents while giving presidential supporters much to think about. In a series of cogently argued allegations, Bovard shows how the campaign promises of 2000 have betrayed not only the electorate, but the Constitution itself: from the erosion of civil liberties, massive debt, and the arrogance of federal agencies, to economic policies that favor the wealthy, and the deceptive maneuvers that led to war in Iraq and the alienation of former allies. For every American, "The Bush Betrayal" will be required reading in this election year. Media > Book, [PU: Palgrave Macmillan]<

In January 2001, George W. Bush assumed the Presidency of the United States promising peace, prosperity, and a renewed sense of integrity. In the Bush Betrayal, James Bovard vividly illustrates how Bush abandoned both his campaign promises an his oath to uphold the Constitution, leaving instead a nation at war, in massive debt, and in service to the special interests of big business. The Bush Betrayal is a seething indictment of a presidency far removed from the will of the people and is destined to be another classic from Washington's most outspoken critic.; Biography, Palgrave Macmillan<
