Title: Obama's Four Horsemen Subtitle: The Disasters Unleashed by Obama's Reelection Author: David Harsanyi Narrator: Alpha Trivette Format: Unabridged Length: 5 hrs and 31 mins Language: English Release date: 07-02-13 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Politics Publisher's Summary: Conquest, Famine, War, Death: the four horsemen are coming, in the form of the national debt, widespread dependence on government, turmoil in the Middle East, and the expansion of the bureaucratic state. In Obamas Four Horsemen, syndicated columnist David Harsanyi takes a provocative look at how the Obama Administration allowed four big problems to mushroom into looming disasters we can no longer avoid or postpone. In his famous conversational, fact-driven, and humorous tone, Harsanyi argues that President Obamas handling of both domestic and foreign crises has set the stage for a disaster of Biblical proportions. Under Obama, America has become a land of more dependence, more hand-outs, more federal programs, and more government agencies. The great danger is that Americans have gotten used to it. Many people today expect, as a matter of fact, that the government will hand them health insurance, student loans, birth control, and anything else they might need or desire while they are increasingly numb to the pernicious creep of the bureaucratic state and the alarming escalation of unsustainable spending and debt. Meanwhile, powerful forces abroad seek to destroy American and Western culture while Obama has sat on his thumbs and looked the other way, tossing out politically correct platitudes when asked about his response to their open threats and aggression. America is facing a time of great upheaval, domestic and global. Obamas Four Horseman is a provocative exposé on how we got here, and a chilling prediction of whats to come. Editorial Reviews: Wellness coach Pamela M. Smith outlines a week-by-week, five-point plan for energy and weight management. Elizabeth Rodgers gives a calming confident reading to Smiths seven-week-to-peak-function, non-dieting solution. Eating small, balanced meal portions - according to nutritionist-to-celebrities Smith - not starving or manipulating the body, leads to looking and feeling ones best. It is not so much what you eat, but how and when you work most closely with your body that determines results. In her own words, for your health, "you dont need to learn how to diet, you need to learn how to eat in healthy ways".

Binder, Kate Wood Narrator: Erin Clark Format: Unabridged Length: 12 hrs and 53 mins Language: English Release date: 05-08-13 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Politics Publisher's Summary: Conservative pundits allege that the pervasive liberalism of America's colleges and universities has detrimental effects on undergraduates, most particularly right-leaning ones. Yet not enough attention has actually been paid to young conservatives to test these claims - until now. In Becoming Right, Amy Binder and Kate Wood carefully explore who conservative students are, and how their beliefs and political activism relate to their university experiences. Which parts of conservatism do these students identify with? How do their political identities evolve on campus? And what do their educational experiences portend for their own futures - and for the future of American conservatism? Becoming Right demonstrates the power that campus culture has in developing students' conservative political styles and shows that young conservatives are made, not born. Focusing on two universities - "Eastern Elite" and "Western Public" - Binder and Wood discover that what is acceptable, or even celebrated, political speech and action on one campus might be unthinkable on another. Right-leaning students quickly learn the styles of conservatism that are appropriate for their schools. Though they might be expected to simply plug into the national conservative narrative - via media from Fox News to Facebook - college conservatives actually enact their politics in starkly different ways. Rich in interviews and insight, Becoming Right illustrates that the diverse conservative movement evolving among today's college students holds important implications for the direction of American politics.

Arenberg, Robert B. Dove Narrator: Kevin Pierce Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 45 mins Language: English Release date: 03-19-13 Publisher: University Press Audiobooks Ratings: 2.5 of 5 out of 2 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Politics Publisher's Summary: Recent legislative battles over healthcare reform, the federal budget, and other prominent issues have given rise to widespread demands for the abolition or reform of the filibuster in the US Senate. Critics argue that members' traditional rights of unlimited debate and amendment have led to paralyzing requirements for supermajorities and destructive parliamentary tactics such as secret holds. In Defending the Filibuster, a veteran Senate aide and a former Senate Parliamentarian maintain that the filibuster is fundamental to the character of the Senate. They contend that the filibuster protects the rights of the minority in American politics, assures stability and deliberation in government, and helps to preserve constitutional principles of checks and balances and separation of powers. Richard A. Arenberg and Robert B. Dove provide an instructive historical overview of the development of Senate rules, define and describe related procedures and tactics, examine cases related to specific pieces of legislation, and consider current proposals to end the filibuster or enact other reforms. Arguing passionately in favor of retaining the filibuster, they offer a stimulating assessment of the issues surrounding current debates on this contentious issue. Critic Reviews: During my years in the Senate, I learned that you should never get involved in a legislative fight without Bob Dove's advice on counsel. Nobody knows more about the rules and history of the Senate than he does. Defending the Filibuster: Soul of the Senate should be required reading for anyone who wants to understand one of the hallmarks of our democracy. (Bob Dole, former United States Senator ) In this excellent volume, two extraordinarily qualified Senate veterans explain and defend, with clarity and impressive research, the Senate filibuster. With their deep understanding of, and respect for, the institution of the Senate, they point to the need to protect minority rights and to build consensus - and they propose evolutionary reforms to reduce filibuster abuse. This book deserves to be read and considered carefully by all who respect, and want to understand better, the world's greatest deliberative body. (Lee H. Hamilton, former US Representative and Director of the Center on Congress at Indiana University) Regardless of whether you agree with [the authors'] conclusions, the book will be a must read for anyone who wants to be a part of the debate about how to improve the function of the Senate. - Roll Call An historically grounded and eloquent defense of the Senate's tradition of protecting minority views by allowing extended debate until sixty Senators vote to end it. U.S. Senator Carl Levin

Title: Race-Baiting in America Subtitle: How the Left Use Race as a Means to Keep Power, Drive the Narrative, & Tear This Country Apart Author: D. Lee Narrator: Douglas R. Pratt Format: Unabridged Length: 2 hrs and 17 mins Language: English Release date: 02-07-13 Publisher: Darren Kirby Ratings: 2 of 5 out of 6 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Politics Publisher's Summary: Have we learned nothing from MLK's "I Have a Dream" speech? "There is a class of colored people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs. There is a certain class of race-problem solvers who don't want the patient to get well." (Booker T. Washington) The Left continues to use race as a dividing issue in national politics, but is it really as bad as they portray? Join author D. Lee as he shows just how far the Left will go in it's use of racial language to stir up the American public. Outrageous, informative, and enlightening, you will learn the truth about how race-baiting has become a "way of life" for the Left, even going so far as to manufacture issues that don't even exist.

Title: Spin Masters Subtitle: How the Media Ignored the Real News and Helped Reelect Barack Obama Author: David Freddoso Narrator: David Cochran Heath Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 7 mins Language: English Release date: 01-28-13 Publisher: Blackstone Audio, Inc. Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 9 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Politics Publisher's Summary: The biggest story of the election was how the media ignored the biggest story of the election. Amid all the breathless coverage of a nonexistent war on women, there was little or no coverage of Obama's war on the economy - how, for instance, part-time work is replacing full-time work, how low-wage jobs are replacing high-wage ones, how for Americans between the ages of 25 and 54 there are fewer jobs today than there were when the recession officially ended in 2009, and fewer, in fact, than at any time since mid-1997. The downsizing of the American economy wasn't the only story the media missed - or suppressed - there was also the unraveling of Obama's foreign policy and the deadly scandals at home (Fast and Furious) and abroad (the terrorist attack that killed the American ambassador at Benghazi). But instead of serious, substantive journalism, the media reported ad nauseam on trifles (Big Bird), Republican-baiting hysteria (how everything the Republicans said was allegedly "racial code"), and distortions of Romney's remarks (such as the "47 percent" comment). The media dropped the ball in covering the 2012 election, says David Freddoso, editorial page editor oftheWashington Examiner, and in doing so, the media failed in their responsibility to keep politicians honest and the public well-informed. Freddoso, aNew York Timesbest-selling author and former congressional reporter forNational Review, fills this volume not only with outrageous examples of media bias but also with dozens of real stories that genuinely inquisitive reporters should have relished but that the overwhelmingly liberal press didn't even bother to cover. Full of the news you didn't hear about in 2012, David Freddoso'sSpin Masters: How the Media Ignored the Real News and Helped Reelect Barack Obamawill be the most provocative and accurate take of just how Barack Obama managed to get reelected amid the worst economic times since at least the 1970s - and how the media helped him do it. Critic Reviews: "Spin Mastersshows just how far to the left the news media have lurched. There are other ways to study media bias, but Freddoso's book is a lot more fun than poring through the first forty-two Gail Collins columns in TheNew York Timesabout Mitt Romney driving with a dog on the roof of his car. (The dog liked it!)" (Ann Coulter) "David Freddoso's terrific new bookSpin Mastersdocuments more than routine media bias - though he has plenty of outrageous examples of that. It's about how the media ignored or buried the big stories - like how Obama has hollowed out our economy or openly trampled on the Constitution - in favor of Democratic Party press releases. Freddoso reports the news you didn't hear during the election - and also shows how we can avoid falling prey to the hypocritical and absurdly partisan liberal media again." (David Limbaugh,New York Timesbest-selling author) "Media bias mostly takes the form of omission. In 2012, the media mostly omitted mention of Obamas many offenses against ethics, good government, and the truth. InSpin Masters, David Freddoso deftly tells the stories that most of the mainstream media missed because a dog on the roof of a car was more interesting than, say, an illegal military intervention in Libya or serial abuse of presidential power.

Title: The Globalist Papers Author: Samuel Avery Narrator: Andrew Mulcare Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 19 mins Language: English Release date: 01-03-13 Publisher: Wetware Media Ratings: 5 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Politics Publisher's Summary: The Globalist Papers is a case for global political unity. The nation-state remains the political paradigm of the current era even as nuclear weaponry, global communications, climate change, and the global economy make it obsolete. The Globalist Papers shows the need now for unity among the nations of the world much the same way the Federalist Papers showed the need in the 1700's for unity among the states of America. This audiobook is not limited to political history. It explores the spiritual and psychological dimensions of the transition away from nationality. Why is it more important now to be national than human, and how will it be possible for the transition to take place?

Title: The Spirit of Compromise Subtitle: Why Governing Demands It and Campaigning Undermines It Author: Amy Gutmann, Dennis Thompson Narrator: Teresa DeBerry Format: Unabridged Length: 6 hrs and 14 mins Language: English Release date: 12-14-12 Publisher: Audible Studios Ratings: 3.5 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Politics Publisher's Summary: If politics is the art of the possible, then compromise is the artistry of democracy. Unless one partisan ideology holds sway over all branches of government, compromise is necessary to govern for the benefit of all citizens. A rejection of compromise biases politics in favor of the status quo, even when the rejection risks crisis. Why then is compromise so difficult in American politics today? In The Spirit of Compromise, eminent political thinkers Amy Gutmann and Dennis Thompson connect the rejection of compromise to the domination of campaigning over governing - the permanent campaign - in American democracy today. They show that campaigning for political office calls for a mindset that blocks compromise - standing tenaciously on principle to mobilize voters and mistrusting opponents in order to defeat them. Good government calls for an opposite cluster of attitudes and arguments - the compromising mindset - that inclines politicians to adjust their principles and to respect their opponents. It is a mindset that helps politicians appreciate and take advantage of opportunities for desirable compromise. Gutmann and Thompson explore the dynamics of these mindsets by comparing the historic compromises on tax reform under President Reagan in 1986 and health care reform under President Obama in 2010. Both compromises were difficult to deliver but only tax reform was bipartisan. Drawing lessons from these and other important compromises - and failures to compromise - in American politics, Gutmann and Thompson propose changes in our political institutions, processes, and mindsets that would encourage a better balance between campaigning and governing. Calling for greater cooperation in contemporary politics, The Spirit of Compromise will interest all who care about whether their government leaders can work together.

Title: Planned Bullyhood Subtitle: The Truth Behind the Headlines about the Planned Parenthood Funding Battle with Susan G. Komen for the Cure Author: Karen Handel Narrator: Pam Ward Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 21 mins Language: English Release date: 09-28-12 Publisher: Tantor Audio Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 4 votes Genres: Nonfiction, Politics Publisher's Summary: For at least a decade, Susan G. Komen for the Cure, the world's leading breast cancer organization, had been dealing with the backlash from pro-life conservatives because of its grants to Planned Parenthood, the world's largest abortion provider. According to Karen Handel, Komen's seniorvice president of public policy in 2011, the two organizations had mutuallyagreed to part ways amicably. But then Planned Parenthood surprisingly unleashed a media attack against Komen, waving the banner of women's health asa shield for its underlying political agenda. Public criticism against Komenintensified with damaging consequences, eventually concluding in Komen'ssurrender and Karen's resignation. In daring to walk away, Komen had unwittingly ignited a battle in which it became collateral damage in a larger election - year war between liberals and conservatives for the souls (and votes!) of women and the nation's conscience - with abortion and contraception linked as ultimate wedgeissues. What exactly went on inside this firestorm of controversy? Were the relarger forces at play? In this tell-all, highly charged account, Karen Handelbreaks the silence and finally reveals what really happened in the winter of 2011.
