new tea party book

Last night's debate at Reason with Matt Kibbe, Jonah Goldberg and Brink Lindsey was good, though they "agreed" more than they did in the print version already published in Reason.

Kibbe is about to publish a tea party book with Dick Armey.


Dick Armey's FreedomWorks organisation has become front and centre in the Tea Party movement "New York Times" - one of the fastest-growing and most talked-about political phenomena in recent memory. With its strong Anti-Washington bent, Tea Party followers are outraged by the false conservatism of the Bush administration, which did nothing to shrink government spending or the deficit, and are further alarmed by President Obama's massive bank bailouts, wasteful stimulus spending, and health-care legislation, according to Armey. In "Give Us Liberty", the former House Majority Leader defines what the tea partiers are fighting for - including lower taxes, smaller government, and more deregulation - and how citizens can join the cause. This activist manifesto contains a battle-tested, step-by-step guide to organising and effecting change in any community. Based on the successful experiences of Tea Party movement leaders, it includes tips on building a local network, composing letters-to-the-editor, signage, organising effective and well-timed protests, and more.

About the Author

Dick Armey served in the House of Representatives for eighteen years, becoming Majority Leader in 1994. That year he was the main author of the Contract with America, which helped Republicans take control of the House for the first time in forty years. Today, he serves as chairman of FreedomWorks and leads the same political revolution at the grassroots level.
