No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

I saw The Christmas Sweater in my local Wal-Mart today.  There were 6-7 of them on the shelf.  Two were visible to the public.  One had been turned around so that its' back cover was visible.  I figured that some moonbat in the area did that, so I turned it around to show the title side of the cover.

I gotta get one, for a niece or two.

I've seen a couple of Beck's books turned around or put behind other books.  I turn them the right way and put them in front of books about Dead Teddy.  :tongue:

I have read A Christmas Sweater (not the childrens version), Common Sense, An Inconvenient Book and I am in the process of reading Arguing with Idiots.

ditto. 

I also had tickets to take my wife and son to the stage production of The Christmas Sweater (movie theater simulcast) the evening my wife had her accident last year.  Needless to say, we didn't make it.

Golem, you need to read at least Common Sense and Arguing with Idiots.  An Inconvenient Book as well if you still have time.  All are exceptionally well researched and extensively bibliographied.
