Sobre este áudio

As a young political geek, Matt Latimer dreamed of one day heading to Washington to work for a conservative president and usher in another Reagan Revolution. With the support of his slightly mortified liberal parents, he tried to do just that - but his youthful exuberance began to cool as he moved up the rungs of power.

On Capitol Hill he worked for a Congressman who "misremembered" basic facts, assisted a U.S. Senator who hid from his own staff, and met another who cowed her male aides into carrying her purse. Finally ensconced in the White House as one of George W. Bush's chief speechwriters, he soon realized that the post wasn't at all what he'd envisioned. Less like Aaron Sorkin's The West Wing and more like NBC's The Office, D.C.'s most prestigious address turned out to be a bizarro world in which the major players were in some ways mirror opposites of their public images.

Resumo da Crítica

"Probably the most important political book of the year.... [Matt is] one heck of a great conservative. It seems to me [it is] getting a very good reaction from conservatives around the country.... The last time I read a book that was this funny was Christopher Buckley's White House Mess." (Jed Babbin, Editor, Human Events)

"Lots of people write accounts of their time at the White House. Virtually no one has done it as well.... This book is excellent: funny, sensible, informative, interesting as hell, and beautifully written. If only there had been more Matt Latimers in the Bush administration." (Tucker Carlson, Fox News anchor)

"Matt Latimer's hilarious account reads like political satire, except it's all true.... Latimer's description of government bureaucracy should be framed and placed in every government office...completely accurate and completely hilarious." (Ann Coulter, best-selling author and Fox News analyst)
