We recommend you download one of our test eBooks to make sure you have the right settings on your computer.




For the most part, you'll find the same ebooks at each virtual online ebook store, just differences in price. Happily, I found the Diesel eBook download store to be the exception to the rule. Not only did they have most of the titles I've found at other sites online, they had a nice selection I hadn't seen anywhere else, in particular, the complete collection of original Sherlock Holmes novels all in one compendium, and in Palm eReader format, just how I like.

The Politics of Deceit: Saving Freedom and Democracy from Extinction
A compelling indictment of the Bush Administration's cynical, anti-democratic manipulation of the media
In this devastating analysis of American politics today, a former Democratic campaign advisor pulls back the curtain on the pervasive political manipulation of the media-and reveals just how fragile our democracy is. From political ads and talk shows to mainstream media reporting, Glenn Smith shows how American political discourse is now dominated by carefully scripted images and rhetoric-most of which benefit the Republicans and their corporate allies. The result is public apathy toward politics-and a real threat to American freedom.
To reclaim our nation, Smith argues, we must revitalize politics at the grassroots level-and liberals must realize that religion and spirituality are not antithetical to a progressive agenda. For anyone troubled by manipulative political advertising, self-aggrandizing celebrity pundits, and the undiminished role of money in politics, this necessary book lays out the full scope of the problem-and points the way toward solutions.
Glenn Smith (Austin, TX), a former journalist and political consultant, managed MoveOn.org's Defending Democracy Campaign. He is currently managing DriveDemocracy.org, a spin-off of MoveOn, and a consultant to the Rockridge Institute, a progressive think tank.

The Politics of Deceit

Saving Freedom and Democracy from Extinction

Chapter One

The Madness of King George III and Our Contemporary Political Dilemma

There is something exceedingly ridiculous in the composition of monarchy; it first excludes a man from the means of information, yet empowers him to act in cases where the highest judgement is required. Thomas Paine Common Sense

On the morning of November 2, 1920, a young African-American named July Perry cast his ballot for President of the United States in Ocoee, Florida. His vote cost him his life. A friend, Mose Norman, tried to vote later that morning. He was turned away, and the anger of racist whites at his and Perry's boldness turned to murderous rage. Before dawn of the next day, Mr. Perry was dead, shot full of holes and hanged from a tree. Five hundred African-Am ... read full excerpt from The Politics of Deceit: Saving Freedom and Democracy from Extinction ebook
