Imposter: How George W. Bush Bankrupted America and Betrayed the Reagan Legacy
By Bruce Bartlett (2006)
The author, who worked in the Reagan White House, goes through a long list of ways that W has not lived up to the Reagan ideal.
Bartlett compares W to Nixon, claiming that neither one was a real conservative.
The author raises a number of interesting points, but it is clear that he has an ax to grind.
He lost whatever credibility he might have had with me when he started talking about what a great president Clinton was.
Bartlett probably feels that he documented his case well, since fully one third of the book is made up of appendices, notes, and the index.
I would characterize the author as a whiner.
