Reading Liberally: John W. Dean’s “Conservatives Without Conscience”

This post is a magnet for pre-meeting discussion and resources for our inaugural meeting of Reading Liberally on Wednesday Oct. 4th at 7:30 PM at Bookmans on Speedway and Wilmot. We will be discussing John W. Dean‘s "Conservatives without Conscience".

First, it is recommended that you have read the book. It is available at booksellers everywhere, both on- and offline. The public library also has multiple copies.

We will not be the first to have read and discussed the book and there are very good treatment of the books by readers, book circles, interviewers, and reviewers available online to enhance our discussion. Some of the best are:

Firedoglake’s salon: Part 1, Part 2

Keith Olbermann interviews John Dean about his book.

Dave Neiwert’s (a journalist who cronicals the far right in the blog Orcinus and author of several books) critique of Dean’s conclusions in CWC.

See you there!
