Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: As New. 1st Edition. First Edition, 1st printing. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread in FINE condition. "We live at a time in which hysteria has replaced politics and consumption passes for social action. Fueled by the media's taste for extreme positions, we spend our lives…being confronted with specious either-ors, of which 'for us or against us' is only the tip of the iceberg." [the more things change] "Such bogus oppositionalism is our modern American key signature. It's used to wind us up, get our attention, and open our wallets. Manicheanism sells."---John Powers, critic-at-large for NPR's Fresh Air. "Witty and wide-ranging rather than narrowly political, SORE WINNERS is one of the smartest, most enjoyable books on American culture in years." [circa 2004] Pristine copy, quite presentable.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. The dollars are green. The terror level is orange. And everybody's seeing red. Welcome to Bush World. Rich, scary, and insanely polarized, America is living through one of the wildest eras in its history. In this delicious hybrid of pop mythology and political commentary, John Powers offers an irreverent… guided tour of what he dubs 'Bush World'with its terror attacks and obsession with Martha Stewart, its preemptive wars and celebrations of shopping.Sore Winnerstakes a fresh new look at the multiple personas of the Real Slim Shady, George W. Bush, the gloating Social Darwinism of shows likeSurvivorandThe Apprentice, and the right-wing triumph of Fox News and the ranting 'Id Conservatives.' Whether pondering our two greatest white rappers, Eminem and Donald Rumsfeld, or the amazing rise of Gubna Schwarzenegger, the book paints a freewheeling portrait of a society in which racial politics are symbolized by the 'Colin and Condi Show,' gay-marriage opponents battle withQueer Eye's Fab Five, and religious fundamentalism is everywherefrom Mel Gibson'sPassionto America's bogeyman, Osama bin Laden. As he charts the sometimes comic tale of the left's attempts to escape from Bush WorldMichael Moore and Paul Krugman leading the chargePowers explores the need for liberals to reclaim virtue from sanctimonious conservatives and take back the political agenda. Witty and wide-ranging rather than narrowly political,Sore Winnersis one of the smartest, most enjoyable books on American culture in years.
