New York: St. Martin's Press [Thomas Dunne Books], 2004. First U.S. edition [stated]. First printing indicated. Hardcover. Very good in very good dust jacket. Signed by author.. First edition. 264 p. Index. American Empire is at its apex. We are the sole superpower with no potential challenger for a generation. We can reach any point on the globe with our cruise missiles and smart bombs and our culture penetrates every nook and cranny of the global village. Yet we are now the most hated country on earth, buried beneath a mountain of debt and morally bankrupt. "Where the Right Went Wrong" chronicles how the Bush administration and Beltway conservatives have abandoned their principles, and how a tiny cabal hijacked U. S. foreign policy, and may have ignited a "war of civilizations" with the Islamic world that will leave America's military mired down in Middle East wars for years to come. At the same time, these Republicans have sacrificed the American worker on the altar of free trade and discarded the beliefs of Taft, Goldwater and Reagan to become a party of Big Government that sells its soul to the highest bidder. A damning portrait of the present masters of the GOP, "Where the Right Went Wrong" calls to task the Bush administration for its abandonment of true conservatism including: -The neo-conservative cabal-liberal wolves in conservative suits. -Why the Iraq War has widened and imperiled the War on Terror. -How current trade policy outsources American sovereignty, independence and industrial power.
