"It isn't possible to understand American politics now without understanding the worldview and arguments of Markos Moulitsas. If you still believe the beltway caricature of the squishy, compromising, conciliatory American left, American Taliban should disabuse you of that notion."
-- Rachel Maddow , The Rachel Maddow Show
"Markos writes with a conscience and armed with facts to let you know: no, you're not crazy. What you suspected all along was true--America's right wing lives on a myth of self-constructed lies about the Other, with a juvenile disregard for reality, and Obama's presidency has further radicalized an already radical conservative movement."
-- Janeane Garofalo , comic and actor
"Moulitsas alerts us to a clear and present danger in America: radical zealots who disregard our Constitution and our freedoms, and who disguise themselves as patriots."
-- Roger Ebert , film critic
"A thorough compendium of right-wing hypocrisy and selective memory that is either hilarious or tragic, depending on your mood. And it's all lovingly couched in outrage and profanity."
-- David Cross , I Drink for a Reason
