About the Book
"McEwen is a voice in the wilderness with an incisive take on timely topics that daringly tiptoes the razor's edge divide between the Left and the Right. In an age when screeching factions threaten to spin every dizzying social and political issue into butter, McEwen zaps through the bubbling fat with laser-sharp accuracy, blistering logic, heady humor, and wit so sharp it can easily draw blood."-Award-winning playwright Keith Huff
"It would be difficult for me to overstate my opinion of Bob McEwen. He is one of the most intelligent, incisive and daring writers I have ever had the pleasure to work with."-Sandy Cavanaugh, Founder and Artistic Director, New Heritage Theatre Company
"Writers of all personal and political persuasions had moments when they struggled with the strange excesses of the PC in the early 1990's, and here Bob McEwen accurately takes aim at the absurdities."-Film and theater director Shelby Brammer
