Zama Ombies

Eric mentioned Obama zombies in this post which brings up a post I did on a book about Obama zombies:

So I'm noodling across the net and came across a reference to this book:

Obama Zombies: How the Liberal Machine Brainwashed My Generation

So naturally I'm interested in the reviews. Here is one reviewer, E. Berry "zeetwo8", whose family is having buyers remorse.

I can't believe where we are at this present time in America. My whole family voted for Barack...I mean my whole family..we are all white working class people. We usually get together for major family events, of which was my mother's 85th birthday. It was not too long before politics was brought up and I have to say, on save my admitted socialist sister attending NYU journalism program, we are all kinda' shell shocked about what just went down in D.C. with the vote on health care. We all talk about how this system needs fixing, as a couple of us are in the health care industry. But, the way this was passed has left most, not all, but most of us very troubled.
Well a lot of us tried to warn you but you were so caught up in hope and change that your eyes glazed over whenever we tried talking reason.

The reviewer does finish off on a positive note.

This book has really opened my eyes and made me really slow down, take a chill pill and slowly, patiently and OBJECTIVELY watch what politicians say and do so that one can make a more reasoned decision.

Thanks Jason for writing this book for my generation. With this new perspective, we have no excuse for repeating this mistake...

You are not going to get anything even close to OBJECTIVE if you keep getting your news from Amalgamated Pravda Inc. Anyway - there is more good stuff in the review. Go read it.

Jason Mattera, the author of Zombies, was on Best of Imus In The Morning, this AM on Fox Business. He is a very entertaining guy. Sharp as hell, and funny. But (and there's always a but) when Imus asked him to name a Republican, any Republican, who could appeal to people under 30, he had a hard time, finally coming up with Rubio.
And he named Coulter and Malkin as HIS mentors - people who could "get in your face" and push the envelope.
He seems to believe while ideas are important, that in dealing with the zombie generation, all you really need is some kind of hook. I certainly don't know - maybe he's right that they are brain dead.

Frank,

I have some VERY bright under 30s in my household. Not a ONE is interested in politics. Not even as a spectator sport. It has nothing to do with generation. It is just age.

What to do? Start looking for JFK. The Democrats found theirs in late 2007.
