A funny and engaging account of life inside the White House from a young, conservative speech writer.
Matt Latimer grew up in a staunchly liberal family, but youthful rebellion and a sudden infatuation with the ideology of Ronald Reagan propelled him to the 1996 Republican Convention. He went on to work with Congressmen, Senators, Cabinet members, and finally the President himself. Offering listeners a fly-on-the-wall account of life inside the Beltway, this audiobook is filled with humor and keen political insight.

      The author was one of President George W. Bush's top speechwriters from March 2007 to October 2008 and chief speechwriter to Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld for three years. This memoir is a humorous and candid take on life in Washington, DC, and the leaders of both major parties. The behind-the-scenes account boldly names the fools and scoundrels, and laments the principled conservatism that disappeared during the Bush presidency. Narrator Lincoln Hoppe portrays a dichotomy of political characters and projects the author's glib, sarcastic, and, at times, arrogant tone. B.C.E. (c) AudioFile 2010, Portland, Maine
