In \u003cem\u003eBumper Sticker Liberalism\u003c\/em\u003e, Goldblatt peels back the idiocies of the political Left--be they global warming deceptions, government controlled health care demands, or irrational pleas for peace--to reveal the emptiness of these ideas. Wonderfully biting, aggressively entertaining, Goldblatt's \u003cem\u003eBumper Sticker Liberalism\u003c\/em\u003e is funny and insulting...in just the Right way. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFront Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eModern American liberalism is no longer a system of beliefs about the role of government, the conduct of international relations, or the nature of personal responsibility. Rather, it has become a series of bumper stickers--actual bumper stickers that signal mental bumper stickers. They don't make sense individually. They don't make sense in concert. But if you peel them away, one by one, from the foreheads of liberals, there's nothing underneath. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eClever, pithy, often nasty, and altogether unexamined, the liberal bumper sticker is, in fact, the perfect antidote to critical thought. It's an argumentative marker, a gauntlet thrown down from the sanctuary of the driver's seat. You don't have to defend your ideas with your pedal to the metal.
