50 Things Liberals Love to Hate

By: Mike Gallagher

Narrated by: Mike Gallagher

National radio talk show host Mike Gallagher provides a careful study into the psyche of the liberal mind, using humor and irony to both entertain and instruct.

A recent Gallup/USA Today Poll (not exactly Fox News Channel) revealed that 42 percent of Americans called themselves conservative, 35 percent moderate, while only 20 percent used the "L" word to describe themselves.

It doesn’t take much heavy lifting to understand the surface characteristics of liberals. They are exceedingly well educated, and rarely miss an opportunity to tell you so. They are exceedingly upper-middle class, which we know because it takes real money to support a twice-a-day double decaf habit at Starbucks, and yoga sessions for the wife and pets. They gather in clusters in urban environments where sushi joints outnumber children, and they dominate professions that leave a large cultural footprint, such as journalism, the arts, and the music industry.

But just who are these people who call themselves liberals? And how does such a small group have such a big impact on our culture? What motivates them? And what do they have against deodorant?

In 50 Things Liberals Love to Hate, radio talk show host and Fox News Channel contributor Mike Gallagher uses his trademark humor to take the listener inside the life and mind of the American liberal, coming up with 50 definitive things liberals just love to hate.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Any additional comments?

Facebook will not sell ad space for this book! Ah, the New Speak Dictionary 2012 will not allow the book because of the word hate is not allowed however they use the word "hate" in their explanation. Having listened to the audio version of this book, my opinion is this is a must read or listen. Mike Gallagher actually puts into words all the things you think of but never thought of saying. Kind of like a conservative version of Seinfeld. Light and humorous, should be listened to or read by conservatives and liberals alike. If nothing is making sense to you, listen to George Orwell's 1984 and Animal Farm.
