"This book is a tonic and a corrective. It is a reference and a field guide to the language of politics by two veteran observers that not only defines terms and phrases but also explains their history and etymology, describes who uses them against whom, and why, and reveals the most telling, infamous, amusing, and shocking examples of their recent use. It is a handbook of lexicography for the Wonkette generation, a sleeker, more modern 'Safire's Political Dictionary', and a concise, bipartisan guide to the lies and helical constructions of American political languages."--
