Amazons censorship is typical of liberal ideology... it's all about perception and how you feel. If you detour outside of those senses to substance then you are no longer 'us', but committed to the eternal purgatory of 'them'. Here's an honest review they didn't delete:

By William A. Hensler (Holt, Michigan United States) - See all my reviews


This review is from: Know Your Power: A Message to America's Daughters (Audio CD)
I went down to the local store and grabbed this book off a shelf, got a cup of joe, and read it. I have the joy of being able to read her book and not paying a dime to her.

I guess the book makes sense in a Bizzaro world sort of way. I'll give you that warning.

Nancy gives the reader her life's lessons. Nancy tells about her struggles against Republicans and the various groups that make America a not so great place to live. It's kind of weird reading what the Speaker of the House thinks of her fellow Americans: Nancy thinks less of people politically opposed to her than of violent criminals. Crimials act bad because of events in life. Republicans and Conservatives are bad because they think wrong. Actually, it's a little chilling.

The writing is OK. I just hugely disagree with what she writes and how she thinks.

Now, don't think here writing is in the same league as Professor Newt Gingrich. Gingrich has his personal issues but he is a fantastic writer and an excellent history professor. Nancy generally writes in this strange first person way and how her logic is alway best. Actually, "logic" is a wrong word. It's Nancy's feeling that matter most. You're going to get a book of feelings. It's like Oprah as a politician who writes, badly.

Nancy is a mere opportunist. She is bankrolled by a fortune. She writes for the leftist tea and cookie crowd that has never had to do a hard day of work in their life. But if you read her book it will give you insight into the way they think of us.

Sorry, Nancy gets one star and she earned it.
