Overview

Obama has been a one-man wrecking ball

When it comes to our prosperity, our freedom tradition, and our constitutional government, President Barack Obama has been the great destroyer—knocking down the free-market economy and principles of limited government that have made America the envy of the world.

As New York Times bestselling author David Limbaugh documents in chilling detail in his new book, The Great Destroyer, the Obama administration has waged a relentless, nearly four-year-long war to transform our nation into a country where federal bureaucrats have more power over our lives than we do; where leftist crony capitalism dependent on government subsidies is replacing the real thing; where, in an Orwellian inversion of meaning, a savagely weakened national defense somehow makes us stronger and trillions in deficit spending on counterproductive government “stimulus” and welfare programs somehow makes us richer.

Limbaugh unveils the reality behind the administration’s rhetoric. In The Great Destroyer you’ll learn:

  • The true costs of Obama’s crony capitalism scandals—it’s even worse than you think
  • How Obama spends our economy into oblivion while relentlessly demonizing those who try to stop the bleeding
  • How the Obama administration has repeatedly, almost systematically, violated the Constitution to achieve its goals
  • How the Obama administration has empowered shadowy unelected bureaucrats to determine how we live, and the successes they already have in doing that
  • And much more …

In irrefutable detail, David Limbaugh, like a prosecuting attorney, makes his case that the Obama administration is a real and present danger to America’s future. There is no more comprehensive indictment of the Obama administration as it seeks re-election than The Great Destroyer. It is a book that every American worried about the future of our country must read.

Editorials

From Barnes & Noble

Conservative political commentator David Limbaugh doesn't mince words. He insists that Barack Obama and his leftist henchmen have set out to transform our republic into a government that bleeds the economy and sucks out our freedoms. The Great Destroyer exposes the half-hidden agenda of an administration that Rush's brother claims is intent on undermining our free market economy and our national defense. Combative words for a presidential season.

Kirkus Reviews

Rush Limbaugh's brother delivers the obligatory Republican diatribe on the reasons our current president doesn't deserve another term in office. A follow-up to his former "indictment" of President Obama in Crimes Against Liberty (2010), Limbaugh further dissects Obama's political behavior, his administration's "federal interventionism and lawlessness" and what he feels is a blatant attack on American values. What emerges after reading the author's 12 scathing, relentlessly accusatory chapters is that, in Limbaugh's estimation, Obama is a near-subhuman disgrace to America. The author sets down incriminations through heavy-handed, melodramatic prose, even suggesting the president has irresponsibly blamed former President George W. Bush for the morally lapsed state of the nation, all while single-handedly bringing America "to the brink of financial collapse." Limbaugh is an entertainment attorney by trade, so the impressive breadth and comprehensive nature of his criticism on issues like Obamacare, energy prices and legislation, governmental spending and the deficit isn't surprising (many factual statements are admittedly eye-opening). Also unsurprising is his blasting of Obama for his support of gay rights, abortion, failed foreign policy initiatives, the jobs bill and the immigrant-friendly Dream Act. Limbaugh even finds room to chide Michelle Obama, who, in a 2010 NAACP speech, "portrayed America as though it's still dominated by Jim Crow-style inequality." The inclusion of nearly 70 pages of supporting notes and documentation lends some credence to Limbaugh's arguments, but a lack of authorial personality (humor, hopefulness…anything), nor any nods to the good work President Obama has accomplished (or solutions to the problems outlined), turns all the criticism into a dour, antagonistic manifesto. A meticulously catalogued, book-length tantrum discouraging voters from re-electing our 44th President.
