Fight Fire with Fire
This pamphlet is a searing indictment of a radical left, in power in the White House and in our popular culture, that is always trying to cover its spots by claiming merely to be “liberal.” But it is something more as well—a how to manual for conservatives who are dismayed at the state of the union and anxious to turn back the leftist tide. Horowitz’s prescription? “Conservatives need to talk less to voters’ heads and more to their hearts, less about budgets and more about the suffering progressive programs cause….Conservatives need to speak as champions of the underdogs whose lives are being steadily constricted by the ongoing destruction of a system that once afforded more opportunity for more people than any other in the history of the world.”
Part j’accuse; part expose of the left’s brutal oppression of the racial minorities it works so hard to keep on its electoral plantation; part prescription for a change of heart on the part of conservatives—Fight Fire With Fire presents a vision of how to combat the radical left that is turning America into a country we no longer recognize as our own.

Still pertinent
Please read this and see just what obama and his minions tried to do And why. This country would have been in ruins of Trump had not beat Hillary. Blacks: you especially need to read this, #walkaway, get off the Democrat plantation and stop being victimized by democrats. They tell you conservatives are racist...THAT IS a LIE. We welcome anyone who thinks for themselves and loves their family and country and wants safety and peace FOR ALL.
A Must Read for the Politcal Landscape
i can't recommend this booklet any higher. From his own experience growing up un a communist home and being a fiery radical in the 60's, Horowitz describes the thinking and actions of the Progressive Left in succinct terms.His analysis of the Left as like a fundamentalist religionist who sees social problems like racism, sexism ,etc., but thinks they can be fixed by government. They see themselves as the redeemers of the planet, and anyone who opposes them as the party of Satan, which can excuse anything they do.
What is Really Happening
David Horowitz is a very good writer who knows how to keep the reader's interest. The author has an unusal background. For this reason, he has excellent insight into what the Progressives really want. I agree with David Horowitz that many times Conservatives need to be better at getting their point across.
A Conservative Must Read
If only our politicians were as smart as Horowitz, this country would be as great as it once was. He knows what is needed to get people to listen to pro-Constitutional politicians (not that there are many). What's best about Fight Fire with Fire is that everything in it is true. What Horowitz is suggesting is not lying about the records and characters of opponents or conducting smear campaigns just to win. He is basically saying to tell it like it is and to reach hearts instead of constantly trying to reach minds because people are more likely to respond to how they feel. Conservatives do not understand this because we are a thinking people and we expect others to be the same. This is a short read. Every Republican in Washington should read and implement the ideas Horowitz explains in this pamphlet.
"Political Correctness" makes it easy for Communists to hide their vicious purpose
David Horowitz KNOWS, via eyewitness history, from where those who have taken over the Democrat party and our current "administration" come from, and what their goals for America really are. Many, if not most, are outright Communists in hiding. Others are Communist-leaning in their ideology, or very foolish Communist "dupes," "Useful Idiots" the Russian Communists called them. Divisive, destructive, "Political Correctness" makes it easy for Communists to hide their vicious purpose, the "total transformation of America," into a Communist dictatorship and the end of America's powerful history of individual freedom, property ownership, and a free economy which has made our people the most successful in the world. In "Fight Fire With Fire", David Horowitz tells us, from personal experience, how to defend our great Nation from this vicious internal attack. This book is a must read for those who love America as it was founded.
it is a very nice overview of how America got to where it is ...
This is another, short Kindle book that can be read in a single, short sitting but its contents are important because they deal with the current struggles between the ultra-leftists and the conservatives, not necessarily on the far right with the Tea Party. The author is very well known, having written countless books and primers, such as this one, and heading up an organization in CA known as the Freedom Center. The number of very clever authors and writers that David Horowitz has assembled within his organization is very impressive, and many of them have written similar Kindle books that you can find on Amazon, such as those by Robert Spencer, also very illuminating and impressive works. However, i digress. This particular book deals with Horowitz's estimation of the threats existing today to the future of the USA because of its current, Democratic administration and their ultra-liberal and ultra-leftist politics and way of controlling government. This is not fictional, it is factual, and substantiated by Horowitz with suitable references to other articles. Not only does he describe the threat we now face but also, how we can fight fire with fire, and how the more conservatives amongst us can counter the ultra-leftists ready to give away America to certain others within its borders. The book has to do with the redistribution of wealth in America, reducing the disparity in incomes, forcing the more wealthy to subsidize the poorer section, and, in general, turning America into a much more, socialistic and leftist entity. It is also about losing our constitutional rights and freedoms, which the author also sees on the horizon unless we act now. This is what he means about fighting fire with fire but you will have to actually read the book to learn more. All in all, it is a very nice overview of how America got to where it is today, and the battles raging still in Congress and across the country between the liberal left and the more conservative, right. The upcoming, state and congressional elections in November, may well prove very interesting, if as it appears, many Democrats may be turned out of office or denied their election, while the more conservative candidates may realize their day in the sun, finally. This is also the theme of this Horowitz book, how to make this come about, now or in the future. All in all, a very good read, if one does not have their head buried in the sands that the left has created in recent times?
Time to assert conservative ideals!
Should be required reading for any conservative thinking of running for public office. We must meet the opposition head on.
Awesome Book!
I absolutely loved the book and immediately ordered another Horowitz book after I read it. When another of my friends asks why I don't care for this President, instead of sputtering around trying to list instance after instance where he has lied, done damage to this country or acted inexplicably for a leader who is supposed to care about the country he leads, I will refer them here. Long story short, the book explains a lot about why Progressives do what they do, and why the Progressive in the White house has done so much damage to the country we love.
A must read for conervatives!
The so-called "progressives" of this country are determined to reduce America to a populace of government-dependent individuals with a lack of initiative who can be bamboozled and economically controlled. I find that program to be hateful and unforgivable. Thanks to this wonderful author for giving us ideas for combating this destructive ideology.
On point, as usual with this writer
Horowitz gets right to the point and doesn't waste words. If you're conservative, do yourself a favor, and read some of how lefties portray you. Don't worry about hitting back too hard.
