How George W. Bush Bankrupted America and Betrayed the Reagan Legacy

Publisher’s Weekly review of Impostor : How George W. Bush Bankrupted America and Betrayed the Reagan Legacy makes it sound like this is one book which both liberals and true conservatives might find of interest:

Liberal commentators gripe so frequently about the current administration that it’s become easy to tune them out, but when Bartlett, a former member of the Reagan White House, says George W. Bush has betrayed the conservative movement, his conservative credentials command attention. Bartlett’s attack boils down to one key premise: Bush is a shallow opportunist who has cast aside the principles of the “Reagan Revolution” for short-term political gains that may wind up hurting the American economy as badly as, if not worse than, Nixon’s did. As part of a simple, point-by-point critique of Bush’s “finger-in-the-wind” approach to economic leadership, Bartlett singles out the Medicare prescription drug bill of 2003— “the worst piece of legislation ever enacted”—as a particularly egregious example of the increases in government spending that will, he says, make tax hikes inevitable.
