"Feeling Your Pain" The Explosion and Abuse of Government Power in the Clinton-Gore Years

In his new book, James Bovard looks at President Clinton's and Vice President Gore's record on such abuses and absurdities as taxes, gun control, the Waco fiasco, Americorps, and federal funding of every program from those for disaster relief to those that put on puppet shows in Northern California. He looks at Hillary Clinton's informal role in the government, as well as Newt Gingrich's poor stewardship of the Republican Party in its quest for a leaner federal government. In the style that made Lost Rights a classic, Bovard takes us on an unsentimental journey through the last eight years. Slate "Chatterbox" Timothy Noah will offer a different perspective.
