Oh Shit! They Flipped It!

Pretty clever, right? This book actually came out back in 2007, but has only recently jumped to the top of the bestsellers lists due to Glenn Beck (or someone who works for Glenn Back) finding out about it. This is the description on Amazon:

For the past three decades, many history professors have allowed their biases to distort the way America’s past is taught. These intellectuals have searched for instances of racism, sexism, and bigotry in our history while downplaying the greatness of America’s patriots and the achievements of "dead white men."

As a result, more emphasis is placed on Harriet Tubman than on George Washington; more about the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II than about D-Day or Iwo Jima; more on the dangers we faced from Joseph McCarthy than those we faced from Josef Stalin.

A Patriot’s History of the United States corrects those doctrinaire biases. In this groundbreaking book, America’s discovery, founding, and development are reexamined with an appreciation for the elements of public virtue, personal liberty, and private property that make this nation uniquely successful. This book offers a long-overdue acknowledgment of America’s true and proud history.

And these are the people who wrote it:

That very smugly concerned looking individual on top is particularly monstrous. A quick glance at his body of work revealed that he is also the author of a few books on similar subjects such as 48 Liberal Lies About American History and America's Victories: Why the U.S. Wins Wars and Will Win the War on Terror. He transcends this laughable ridiculousness, however, in a work of fiction he authored titled September Day, which is a fictional re-imagining of the events of 9/11. This is the unforgivably sensationalist cover:

It gets worse. Here's the description:

September 11 was a day no American can forget, and the reactions it provoked remain with us today. Through the eyes of several individuals, we have a much clearer picture of that deadly day. Meet: -Michael Callahan, FDNY, who finds himself inside the tower as the unthinkable happens. -Falik Maleed, Osama bin Laden's personal assistant, dedicated killer and terrorist, who nevertheless develops misgivings about his employer. -Thomas Palmer, professional football player, who abandons a life of wealth and fame to join the Army to fight bin Laden, then gets his wish. -"Connie" Cataris, an Ivy League economist, whose startling discoveries put him in the middle of an international plot involving bin Laden's financing that threatens to turn the world community upside down The paths of these seemingly unrelated people soon intersect with the lives of terrorist Mohammad Atta, patriotic airline passenger Rod Trainor aboard Flight 93, and dedicated CIA agents Lonnie Jackson and Cliff Harrison, with explosive---and tragic---results. This is the story of 9/11 you never heard, told in a way you never imagined!

He actually just fictionalized the lives of real people, effectively appropriating their lives to fit the narrative he is trying to sell about American greatness, the contours of which I think we can all imagine based on his previous work. And Pat Tillman, no less! Shame on this horrible human being. There aren't enough hells in the universe for people like this.
