  <default_description>There are some things people think but don't say....&lt;P&gt;&quot;Political correctness is the classic Great Idea Gone Wrong. All it's done is shut us up. It hasn't changed anybody's mind. It hasn't changed our hearts. It's changed our faces. It's taken every opinion we have, it's taken every joke we have, and it's forced us to conceal it and hide it and bury it. It's made us superficial.&quot;&lt;P&gt;&quot;Terrorism isn't caused by poverty, poverty is caused by terrorism. Terror is a tool used by those seeking power to keep the masses in need of an answer.&quot;&lt;P&gt;&quot;Too many people blame everything on everybody else, and because they do, they will expect too little from themselves and too little from their children.&quot;&lt;P&gt;Glenn Beck says all that, and more.&lt;P&gt;As one of the most listened to nationally syndicated radio talk-show hosts and the driving force behind the Rallies for America, Glenn Beck entertains, inspires, and informs millions of listeners. In &lt;I&gt;The Real America,&lt;/I&gt; Beck continues to tell it like it really is, cutting through the fog of modern-day pundits and pontificators who have made it their mission to undermine and underestimate the greatness of America, our strength as Americans, and the power of the American spirit.&lt;P&gt;With his inimitable combination of self-effacing humor and heartfelt conviction, Glenn rails against many of the forces that keep us from our potential as a nation and as individuals -- and tells how to overcome them. His topics include:&lt;P&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;LI&gt; Family and community&lt;P&gt;&lt;LI&gt; Politics&lt;P&gt;&lt;LI&gt; Personal responsibility&lt;P&gt;&lt;LI&gt; Race relations&lt;P&gt;&lt;LI&gt; Religion&lt;P&gt;&lt;LI&gt; Political correctness, the media, Hollywood, and celebrities&lt;P&gt;&lt;LI&gt; Abortion and the deat&lt;LI&gt; penalty&lt;P&gt;&lt;LI&gt; Alcohol and drugs&lt;P&gt;&lt;LI&gt; Why I wave the flag&lt;P&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;P&gt;Glenn Beck's compelling message in &lt;I&gt;The Real America&lt;/I&gt; echoes the ideas he has delivered to thousands of people with his groundbreaking Rallies for America: Once we connect with our power individually, we can empower others -- and then we can be as great and as grand as we have always wanted to be as a person, as a people, and as a nation. &lt;P&gt;</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[This book was wonderful!  Glenn just hits the nail on the head for so many different topics.  What he brings to the table just MAKES SENSE.  Why can't our country's leaders just make sense?  I think this book is SO much better than his new 2007 one.

    <body><![CDATA[For a nonfiction book about America and what is going on in our country politically, this was a very fast and entertaining read!  Glenn Beck is humorous and very sarcastic, which I love! He calls it like it is and owns up to his own mistakes and junk too.

    <body><![CDATA[The last two chapters of his book were excellent. The chapter on the middle east was great the rest kind of rambles on. He lays his heart out in parts of the book. In other parts his radio show is better. I still want to give it a high rating because of his conversion story.  ]]></body>
