What a well-written book! Goldberg's writing is articulate, witty, and convincing. The breadth and depth of his knowledge is evident in his quotes to support his positions. The author's main contention is that many people (mainly liberals) use cliches rather than explain positions. Cliches with explanation as to application are a waste of words. Do people really think about questions or just repeat the current cliche? The answer is that many do not think.
