Product Description:
What would the founding fathers have thought of George W. Bush?
Founders v. Bush is a comparison in quotations of the policies and politics of the Founding Fathers and the administration of George W. Bush. See what the Founders really thought about the Constitution, Liberty, Patriotism, Religion, War, Truth, Lies, Wealth, and more...in their own words.
GEORGE WASHINGTON "Beware of pretend patriotism." -1796
JOHN ADAMS "Power always thinks it has a great soul and vast views beyond the comprehension of the weak; and that it is doing God s service when it is violating all His laws." -1816
THOMAS JEFFERSON "By oft repeating an untruth, men come to believe it themselves." -1813
JAMES MADISON "Perhaps it is a universal truth that the loss of liberty at home is to be charged to provisions against danger, real or pretended, from abroad." -1798
BENJAMIN FRANKLIN "Being ignorant is not such a shame as being unwilling to learn." -1758

In Founders v. Bush I was hoping to find more than just a comparison of quotes between our Founders and the president. I was looking for intense discussion about the comparisons. With the exception of the start of the chapters, there was little to read or digest.

Although the author ... Read More

An insulted, but calm Thomas Jefferson looks out to the reader from the cover of Coffman's book and away from a petulant, pugnacious George W. Bush. I didn't have to open the book to know how the comparison would play out, but I'm glad I did. Coffman provides a good review of the first six years of the Bush Administration in their own words organized by topic: the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, war, peace, religion, lies, honesty, and disinformation among others. Juxtaposed to these quotations are relevant ... Read More

Cassius describes Julius Caesar to Brutus as follows: Why, man, he doth bestride the narrow world like a Colossus, and we petty men walk under his huge legs and peep about to find ourselves dishonorable graves. And so Steve Coffman might describe our tyrant leader. But he does not. In his new book, Founders V. Bush, Steve takes on the President by juxtaposing his quoted positions with those of Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and Alexander Hamilton. So without ... Read More
