This Town

Two Parties and a Funeral-Plus, Plenty of Valet Parking!-in America’s Gilded Capital

De: Mark Leibovich

Narrado por: Joe Barrett

One of the nation's most acclaimed journalists, the New York Times' Mark Leibovich, presents a blistering, penetrating, controversial--and often hysterical--look at Washington's incestuous "media industrial complex."

great book

great book. informative, interesting and funny. very insightful. what else do i need to say to meet the 15 word minimum.

There are already three parties in Washington, D.C

The biggest thing that this book proved to me is that there are already three parties, the hard core Left, the hard core Right and the Progressives. Right now, the Progressives are running both of the name parties, and they are scratching each other's backs all day, everyday.

Get Off Your High Horse

I am not a fan of politicians, media personalities, etc. but this book paints a picture of a town filled with evil, heartless, backbiting demons . If it's true no wonder we have so many enemies around the world.

Says what we already thought, but now with facts

We already have cynical views of perhaps every one of our politicians, particularly those who oppose our personal views.

Now we can rest assured that politicians on "both sides of the aisle" are entirely cynical in their dealings with each other and particularly with the voters.

In today's world, even a terrific loss can be "monetized" to the point that losers such as Generals McChrystal and Petraeus are far better off financially now after being fired from their jobs.

The books is quite humorous, and I highly recommend it.

The amounts of money involved here are extraordinary!

It’s still ThisTown

Leibovich is accurate about Washington but it’s problems are so much worse now. His next book is also too nice to the SOB’s in ….
