Courage and Consequence (Abridged): My Life as a Conservative in the Fight Audiobook

" Humanizes a much politicized and demonized political wingman. "

" TH ebook cleared up some of the inner workings of Rove and why W depended on him to win an election "

" Maligned in the media as the evil mind behind the Bush administration, Karl Rove's side of the story sheds light on what what was really happening during the Bush years. "

" Karl Rove's book is a truly outstanding look into his, George Bush's and the Bush administration's facts, accomplishments, challenges and evolution. Its gives a much needed perspective on Bush years in Texas and the White House. A must read for anyone interested in a factual view of a hugely important piece of our recent history. It is a thorough (520 pages and 516 notes covering 43 pages) word picture of one of the most important times in our Nations near history. "

" Its an interesting peek on what has happened "

" Great book ... Clears up a lot of misconceptions about the Bush administration that liberal media seems to report as gospel!!! "

" Interesting inside look at politics. "

" Mr. Rove has certainly been successful but this book is a sad commentary on the life of a politician. He is surrounded by and has to deal with people who lie, steal and have zero integrity. Rove is a sad person. "

" Listened to the abridged version on cd on a drive from Austin and Lubbock and back... Enjoyed it, but don't think I would have made it through the entire print version. "

" Insightful look into the Bush administration. "

" Very interesting story of the Bush 43 White House. Rove was honest about himself and about Bush, and revealed facts about Democrats that shouldn't have shocked me, but did. (He cited his sources, so it wasn't just "opinion". ) "

" Very good read. It was interesting to read a book about the events that took place in my life time. Getting a better understanding of the events from a different source then the media. "

" This book gives a vivid and compelling inside look at political campaigns, and a first hand account of the George W. Bush administration. I couldn't put it down! "

" Great read and a great glipse into the real Bush White House. "

" It is a good job Karl Rove doesn't make his living writing- he's terrible. In some ways a very accomplished man, he also reveals some deep flaws. I don't agree with his takes on many things, but I love him because he makes liberals hyperventilate. "

" Good read. Lots of information from the insiders point of view. Some new insights on why things aren't always as they seem or as they are reported. "

" I thoroughly enjoyed this book. An insider account of the rise of President George W. Bush from someone who helped him reach the Oval Office. Rove is also revealing about the costs, both personal and financial, that can result from being at the center of American political life. "

" I was never a big Karl Rove fan until I read his book. The man is a genius and deserves more credit then he gets. "

" The George Bush years are probably too recent for anyone but Republicans to enjoy this book, but it is a very interesting look at the Bush years. His chapters on 9/11 and the drama surrounding the 2000 Presidential election are particularly fascinating. "

" I thought the book was terribly boring...I had high expectations...didn't pan out for me. "

" a great read, insightful, poignant, real, moving "

" I couldn't write a better review here than the one by Howard Olsen. I agree with everything he wrote. "

" I was never a big Karl Rove fan until I read his book. The man is a genius and deserves more credit then he gets. "
