A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture :

Where does he start? In his bestselling It′s Getting Ugly Out There , Jack Cafferty skewered the liars and losers who were harming the nation and explained why we had to take our country back. While Barack Obama′s campaign and history–making election bring a certain sense of "mission accomplished," for Cafferty that′s only the beginning. In Now or Never , the caustic Cafferty catalogs the fallout of eight years of Bush lunacy and reveals just how daunting a task our new president faces. With an economy in tatters, two ongoing wars, a rivalry with China, a brewing conflict with Iran, the war on terror, and our broken immigration, education, and healthcare systems, confronting these urgent crises should top the 2009 agenda. Does President Obama stand a chance of turning things around? Will the Democratic Congress hold individuals accountable for abuses of power? Cafferty digs deep into each of these issues and gives our new president some advice straight from the heart of a mainstream American. Powerful, provocative, and sure to be controversial, Now or Never makes lively reading for Cafferty fans, for Obama friends and foes, and for everyone who cares about America today. Praise for It′s Getting Ugly Out There "Cafferty′s tough–talking cynicism . . . cuts through . . . a media climate thick with rigid ideology and tabloid excess." — Publishers Weekly "It′s getting ugly out there and Cafferty doesn′t make it any prettier. Instead [he] makes it easier to understand." — Tribune Media Services

Présentation de l'éditeur :

In his bestselling It′s Getting Ugly Out There , CNN’s Jack Cafferty skewered the liars and losers who were trying to harm the nation and explained why Americans had to take their country back. While the Bush exit from the White House brings a certain sense of "mission accomplished," for Cafferty that′s only the beginning. In Now or Never , the curmudgeonly Cafferty applies his heat–seeking scrutiny to the hot–button issues that top the 2009 agenda, including the economy, China, Iraq, the war on terror, and our broken immigration, education, and healthcare systems. Will Obama turn things around or will it be business as usual? Will a hitherto spineless Democratic Congress hold individuals accountable for abuses of power? Cafferty gives voice to the fears and hopes of Americans from all around the country; he also gets personal with moving stories of his experiences raising kids with values that seem to be disappearing in our culture. Powerful, provocative, and drawing on the latest news from America and around the world, Now or Never makes lively reading for Cafferty fans and everyone who cares about America today.
