This thing is so bad that I frequently considered that it might be a parody of bad reactionary right-wing writing. It isn't.

Anyway, there's a couple of possibilities: 1) Tobacco and gun lobbyists funded a novel-writing AI with it's sole input being a year of Fox News, or 2) every white grandpa in the midwest got to write a paragraph - as long as they promised to either be watching the History Channel or a 9/11 retrospective. I don't know if I hate myself enough to explore the series further.

Check my notes as I walk into the sea forever.

(I can't remember why I have this book in the first place, and I should've stopped when I found a forward by Newt Gingrich, a man perhaps most famous for bringing his children to visit their mother in the hospital where she was recovering from cancer surgery and announcing his intention to divorce her.)
