Cupp of Knowledge

I recently read a great book, co-authored by young conservatives S.E. Cupp and Brett Joshpe, Why You're Wrong About the Right, Behind The Myths- The Surprising Truth About Conservatives. This book explodes a lot of myths about conservatives, particularly about the myth that Republicans are humorless and racist. For example, the smartest funny show in television is South Park which is NOT liberal. A show like South Park regularly rips both the Left and Right. Most of the comedy on Comedy Central is decidedly anti-PC. Conservatism believes in the power of the individual and for every social conservative, there are two or three libertarians who are part of the "Right". Cupp and Joshpe interviewed people as diverse as Newt Gingrich and Al Leiter, K.T. McFarland and Lisa "Kennedy" Montgomery, MTV DJ. The main point of the book is that the Right isn't monolithic. I heartily recommend this book and give it four stars.
