Give Us Liberty - Paperback

by Dick Armey (Author), Matt Kibbe (Author)

Former Majority Leader of the U.S. House of Representatives and leading organizer of the Tea Party movement, Dick Armey offers a Tea Party Manifesto: Give Us Liberty. Written with Matt Kibbee, President and CEO of FreedomWorks, Give Us Liberty defines the issues and agenda of the wildfire grassroots movement that is electrifying the nation, as it calls on fiscal conservatives to take back America.

This isn't just a critique--it's a battle plan for every patriot ready to fight for economic freedom and fiscal sanity.

• Limited Government: Learn why the boom-and-bust cycle is a direct result of government intervention and how restoring constitutional limits is the only path to prosperity.
• A Bottom-Up Revolution: Discover the difference between the "insider takeover" of 1994 and the authentic, citizen-led movement changing politics from the ground up.
• Ending the Bailouts: Go behind the scenes of the TARP vote that ignited a firestorm, revealing how both parties created a political class that puts Wall Street ahead of the American taxpayer.
• Grassroots Activism Toolkit: Move from anger to action with a practical guide to organizing protests, lobbying elected officials, and making your voice heard--the same tactics used by the Sons of Liberty.

Give Us Liberty is written for every American who is ready to stand up to the federal government's unprecedented power, spending, and intrusion on personal freedom. As millions are realizing, our country's future has been dangerously compromised as the national debt spirals out of sight to pay for a litany of irresponsible federal policies: "Obamacare," Wall Street sweetheart deals, liberals' pet social programs, Congressional pork, foreign aid, and new military adventures. Dick Armey and Matt Kibbe-economists and influential supporters of Tea Party activists and candidates across the country-explain what's at stake, why limited government is the answer to our crisis, and how we can renew American prosperity by studying the lessons of the revolutionary era. This paperback edition also features a new foreword by Glenn Beck.
