Surrounded by idiots
fighting liberal lunacy in America
The 2004 election was a watershed moment in our nation's history--to conservatives it was an affirmation of what they'd known all along: conservatives are the mainstream and liberals are the fringe. The Left has targeted every value and standard, principle and idea, concept of God, family, honor, duty, country, and decency. The liberals are everywhere and Gallagher takes them all on: disgraced President Bill Clinton; possible future president Hillary Clinton; the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), which values the lives of bugs over humans; the anti-Bush propagandist filmmaker, Michael Moore; angry and bitter liberal pundit Al Franken; the Dixie Chicks and their un-American comments; race-baiters like Al Sharpton and big-mouth out-of-touch Hollywood elitists like Tim Robbins, Susan Sarandon, and Whoopi Goldberg.--From publisher description.
Beyond its central premise, the book can be read through the connected lenses of Nonfiction. Those themes offer useful points of attention as the characters, ideas, or world develop, especially where the book complicates the expectations of its primary category.

A more thoughtful way into this book
This guide uses the edition details and category signals above to help you choose deliberately. It does not replace the author's work or a full review.
A comfortable full-length choice for steady daily reading.
Begin with its place in Nonfiction, then notice where the book resists that label.
Read for connection, not completion.
Mark one passage that sharpens the book's central concern and one that complicates it. That tension often reveals more than a quick summary.
Three questions to carry with you
- Whose perspective organizes the story, and whose perspective remains outside it?
- Which sources or lived experiences carry the author’s central argument?
- How does the book change the way you understand its larger subject?
