No One Left to Lie To

The Triangulations of William Jefferson Clinton

By: Christopher Hitchens, Douglas Brinkley - introduction

Narrated by: Simon Prebble

"Just as the necessary qualification for a good liar is a good memory, so the essential equipment of a would-be lie detector is a good timeline, and a decent archive."

In No One Left to Lie To, a New York Times bestseller, Christopher Hitchens casts an unflinching eye on the Clinton political machine and offers a searing indictment of a president who sought to hold power at any cost.

With blistering wit and meticulous documentation, Hitchens masterfully deconstructs Clinton's abject propensity for pandering to the Left while delivering to the Right, and he argues that the president's personal transgressions were ultimately inseparable from his political corruption.

Hitchens questions the president's refusals to deny accusations of rape by reputable women and lambasts, among numerous impostures, his insistence on playing the race card, the shortsightedness of his welfare bill, his ludicrous war on drugs, and his abandonment of homosexuals in the form of the Defense of Marriage Act.

Opportunistic statecraft, crony capitalism, "divide and rule" identity politics, and populist manipulations-these are perhaps Clinton's greatest and most enduring legacies.

Nothing but the truth

Background, I'm a libertarian with no dog in the political fight. Hitchens is a contrarian, he is a gifted writer who's fundamental beliefs are different than my own. He nailed it with this book. He details the corruption of the "clintonoids". I was amazed at how much the media and fellow democrats enable(d) these creeps. NBC withheld the rape story until after the election, and are obviously in the tank for Hillary now. They witheld the Donald audio so they could have an October surprise. They were complicit in minimizing Bernie! history repeating itself. We deserve a better choice. but i digress. . A few things that I was not fully aware of, Bill Clinton is most likely a rapist. Hitchens does insinuate that Bill's victims might have their day... which the buffoon Donald helped make happen the other night. He details how Clinton inc.. goes after and threatens their opponents and fellow democrats who don't fall in line. likewise their ability to prostitute themselves for money, and for a mere 25k to the Pakistanis. It's truly depressing that we are likely gojng to have 4 years of them again in the white house. At this moment the wh. staff are putting new locks on the Lincoln bedroom. The book is a great listen, it's not from a political hack like most "journalism " on the right and left today. I hate politics with a passion, i was afraid I'd be bummed out by hearing this, but i found myself enjoying this disturbing summation. Just get it, you'll enjoy

A classic of our times

An incredible book about the permanent loss of ethical government in our country. Hitchens was a superhuman writer and thinker.

very informative easy listen

amazed at all of the audacious criminality with the clinton clan

Hitchens is a bi political criticizer

truth telling at its finest

A concise hit piece on America's worst president

A very informative book and an eye opener for contemporary Americans. However not Hitchens' best work.

The revelations about the actual history of the Clintons

The prose tends to be oblique for the American ear but more aligned with an Oxbridge education. Nevertheless, the sarcasm is pure Hitchens and enjoyable when listened to slowly
