The Loyal Opposition

The master shows his metal. Daniel Patrick Moynihan shows that there was mature dissent during the Reagan years. Mature in that he took on the Reaganites on there own terms and avoided the simplistic ranting of those who saw no problem with the explosion of government during the 1970's. Moreover, this collection serves as an encyclopedia of political wit (see the Gridiron Club address), prophecy (i.e. triple digit deficits and the fall of the Soviet Union), and the function of government. Highly recommended for those seeking sophisticated agruments to demonstrate that "Reaganism" did not have a positive influence on this country.
