Victor Gold is furious. Here's why. "I read Vic Gold's Invasion of the Party Snatchers with a certain degree of shock-and-awe. Like his political mentor Barry Goldwater, Gold pulls no verbal punches in telling the story of how the Bush-Cheney White House has made a mockery of the conservative values it claims to uphold-and which Vic continues to uphold." -Frank Mankiewicz, former press secretary to Robert Kennedy and George McGovern's campaign manager "Victor Gold, a sardonic wordsmith for Republican leaders from Barry Goldwater to the senior George Bush, unleashes a bitter yet comic blend of ferocity and ridicule at the neo-conservatives and theocrats who have taken over his party. In a lively review of the downward course it has traveled over the last six years, Gold takes dead aim at George W. Bush, Dick Cheney and the rest of their cast, and their GOP enablers in Congress, for the party's plight and asks: 'What would Barry do?' Then he answers his own question with Goldwater candor and abandon." -Jules Witcover, author of Very Strange Bedfellows: The Short and Unhappy Marriage of Nixon & AgnewGold, Victor is the author of 'Invasion of the Party Snatchers How the Holy-Rollers and Neo-Cons Destroyed the GOP', published 2007 under ISBN 9781402208416 and ISBN 1402208413.
