Thomas Sowell published a summer reading list for conservatives in today's Dallas Morning News. He offers these books to parents as a way to present their children with "viewpoints that are unlikely to be heard in classrooms that hve become indoctrination centers." I might pick up one of these this summer, but mostly I just wanted to share these with the Patriot community. So here goes:

The Best-Laid Plans by Randal O'Toole: "...gives a richly documented account of government actions and their consequences, and shows a far from flattering side of politicians, 'experts' and environmentalists--who have ruined cities and suburbs in countries around the world."

Liberal Fascism by Jonah Goldberg: "So many liberals use the term 'fascism' to condemn conservative ideas that it may come as a revelation to many that the original fascism was in fact a doctrine having far more in common with the left than with conservatism."

Economic Facts and Fallacies by Thomas Sowell (what's a booklist without a little self-promotion?): "It looks in-depth at fallacies about such things as housing, income, race, sex discrimination, the economics of academia and the Third World."

Hope this gives some ideas for how to occupy your summer.
