Synopsis

Christopher Horner, hailed by Glenn Beck as a Watchdog” and praised by Rush Limbaugh as the longtime go-to guy on global warming extremism,” has compiled a jaw-dropping account of the government’s arrogant plans to take over America’s access to abundant, afforable energy—and by doing so, take over our economy and limit the individual freedom we’ve so long taken for granted.

About this title

From the Back Cover:

Praise for Power Grab

?Power Grab exposes the agenda of the Obama administration and its allies, from ?green jobs’ to the cap-and-trade energy tax as ways to cram down the Left’s long-held wish list of demands, and dream of ?organizing society.’ Horner reveals what their rhetoric means, how the schemes work and what it all spells for you if they win. Power Grab lays bare the plan to replace your individual liberties with the state, securing the Left’s dream of making decisions for you and your family: what you can drive, how you can live, and what sorts of jobs and future they deem acceptable for Americans.”
?Mark Levin, bestselling author and nationally syndicated radio host

?Chris Horner raises the red flag about the so-called ?green economy.’ Power Grab shows the dark gray economic fallacies that lie behind the bright ?green’ economic fairy tales, in a way everyone can understand, if while laughing between the tears.”
?Dr. Gabriel Calzada, professor of applied environmental economics at King Juan Carlos University

?Power Grab exposes the incestuous relationships between the Obama administration and the piles of taxpayer money it wants to pipeline to the Big Green juggernaut consisting of Big Business and Big Labor. Horner shows that the green agenda isn’t so much about a clean environment as it is about redistributing income from us to them.”
?Stephen Moore, member of The Wall Street Journal editorial board and senior economics writer

?Chris Horner was right in his bestselling The Politically Incorrect Guide™ to Global Warming and Environmentalism. He was right in his book Red Hot Lies that exposed the cover-ups, lies, and intimidation of the global-warming alarmists. And he’s right again in his new book Power Grab, which exposes what the extremists are really after: power over you, your wallet, and even your right to self-government. Power Grab is essential reading for fighting back.”
?Congresswoman Michele Bachmann
