Disappointing
...The rest is standard body language advice and some language techniques that seem to be copied from Ross Jeffries ... This book, as many others, evades the really important questions as what to say ..., how to make a good show, although you are extremely nervous, and so on

Deceiving title and book cover
With its shocking pink cover and a big title "FLIRT", I was expecting to learn some skills on flirting.

I was very excited when I first started reading the book, but already got bored after a few pages especially with those "check list"/"self evulation test" after each little chapter. This is really a self help book more than a flirting guide. I only managed to read chapter 1 & 2, flipped though the rest of the book and decided to put it aside.

I bought this book hoping to polish my flirting skills, if not, at least hope this would be a fun read, very disappointing I must say. Now the question is, how can i sell this book back at a cheap shipping rate?

Much more than I expected!
If you are looking for a "self help" book... you know the type... they leave you feeling good for a little while and then you go back to the old ways... then don't get this book! If you are only looking for skills- things to be doing- then don't get this book!
This book is about so much more!
You will learn about how you can be yourself when you are at your very best - THEN, like that, flirt with others. I didn't have to learn to "deal" with being nervous or learn "tricks" of any kind. When I am being who I am at my best - being and enjoying who I am around others flirting has incredible impact!

Factual evidence of an immoral administration
Forget Lewinsky. Even if Monicagate had never happened there is little doubt that the Clinton administration was still the most corrupt and immoral in American history, and what's worse it was aided and abetted by Janet Reno's "Injustice" Department. David Limbaugh lays out the facts in a less incindiary manner than would his brother Rush, but the facts speak loudly for themselves. Everyone will find points of greatest outrage detailed in this book. For Limbaugh it was obviously the campaign finance scandals, which he calls "The Mother of All Scandals". That was bad enough, but in my opinion the pardoning of the Puero Rican terrorists to help Hillary's campaign for Senate was the most reprehensible of all, because that could actually endanger the lives of innocent citizens. Close behind on the outrage scale is the organized vilification of Ken Starr, the callousness of the Travelgate scandal, and Elian Gonzalez debacle. Of course, Clinton apologists will see this book as another tool of the "vast right-wing conspiracy", as Slick Willie laughs all the way into private citizenship carrying goods stolen from the White House. All I can say is, Limbaugh certainly didn't make this stuff up, and it's time to take off the blinders.

A Must Read for Anyone Studying the Clinton Presidency
David Limbaugh's "Absolute Power" is a must have for anyone interested in obtaining the complete picture of Clinton's manipulation, with the help of Janet Reno,of the Justice Department.

Contrary to what I thought when I bought this book, it is not simply an op-ed piece on the Clinton-Reno Justice Department. Instead, it is a thoroughly researched, dispassionate exposition on corruption at the highest level. While Mr. Limbaugh is a known conservative, he nevertheless went to great lengths to be unbiased, and was successful. Thus, those who disagree with his ideology cannot, in good conscience, dismiss him as simply another "right wing radical."

From Waco to Elian Gonzalez, Mr. Limbaugh presents irrefutable evidence that:

-Janet Reno grossly mishandled the Waco incident

-The Justice Department manipulated the law in order to declare war on the tobacco industry, even though there was no basis to do so

-Clinton and Reno did anything and everything within their power to unlawfully discredit Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr, who was later vindicated after impeachment

-Campaign finance laws were repeatedly broken by Clinton and Gore, while the Justice Department successfuly quashed any attempts to bring Clinton and Gore to justice

-Clinton and Reno usurped the power of the courts and did not follow protocol in order to return Elian Gonzalez to his father

Mr. Limbaugh takes great care in presenting accuracy, liberally using citations to back up his arguments. Be that as it may, this is a book that cannot be ignored if a complete education on the Clinton presidency is to be obtained, regardless of political leanings.

Rush isn't the only Limbaugh with his hand on the pulse!!!
What Limbaugh has the inside story to the Clinton administration? What Limbaugh has an insight into what Janet Reno knew? What Limbaugh has taken an objective view of the past 8 years? I know you're thinking Rush, but you may be surprised to find out it's his brother David and this book may also be a surprise.

When I first started reading this book I thought another book that tells about the scandals and the spin machine from the beltway, and the book does that, but it also brings to light some very interesting information that may have and has been kept from the public until now.

Limbaugh shows how the Administration put itself above the law of the land, what the justice department knew and kept secret, what Janet Reno knew or didn't know as the White House turned information over to her.

You'll read about how Elian Gonzales was a political pawn in a masterful chess game run by Bill Clinton, how the Clinton administration ignored Senate confirmations and tried to shut up and down big tobacco.

You'll read and understand how people's lives were ruined if they disagreed with the Clinton Administration, the cover-ups and other scandals like Monica, Vince Foster and White Water.

Overall this is not a Clinton bashing book but rather a book about what bashing the Clinton's did during the 8 years in power. This Limbaugh may have finally hit the nail on the head.
