2012 CHRITMAS GIFT IDEA: For the Conservative on Your Christmas List

Judge Andrew P. Napolitano’s latest book “Theodore and Woodrow: How Two American Presidents Destroyed Constitutional Freedom”  “Two American Presidents” is a harsh and revealing political exposé of two beloved presidents.

Napolitano reveals how Teddy Roosevelt, a bully, and Woodrow Wilson, a constitutional scholar, each pushed aside the Constitution's restrictions on the federal government and used it as an instrument to redistribute wealth, regulate personal behavior, and enrich the government. These two men and the Progressives who supported them have brought us, among other things: -the income tax -the Federal Reserve -compulsory, state-prescribed education -the destruction of state sovereignty -the rise of Jim Crow and military conscription -prohibition and war.
