American Taliban: How War, Sex, Sin, and Power Bind Jihadists and the Radical Right

American Taliban: How War, Sex, Sin, and Power Bind Jihadists and the Radical Right - Markos Moulitsas Nothing earth-shattering or particularly new, if you are a liberal who's been paying attention for the past few years, but not a bad read. My two problems with this book are: 1) since it is written by a blogger, it occasionally becomes just a mocking rant (somewhat expected, obviously) and 2) I am not sure if I am comfortable with calling the extreme right 'American Taliban' -- it seems like stooping to their level of calling Obama 'Hitler' (that said, Moulitsas shows that those people are disturbingly like Taliban, whereas Obama is quite obviously not Hitler).
