YOUÆVE BEEN LIED TO BY THE GOVERNMENTWe shrug off this fact as an unfortunate reality. America is the land of the free, after all. Does it really matter whether our politicians bend the truth here and there?When the truth is traded for lies, our freedoms are diminished and donÆt return.In Lies the Government Told You, Judge Andrew P. Napolitano reveals how AmericaÆs freedom, as guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution, has been forfeited by a government more protective of its own power than its obligations to preserve our individual liberties.ôJudge NapolitanoÆs tremendous knowledge of American law, history, and politics, as well as his passion for freedom, shines through in Lies the Government Told You, as he details how throughout American history, politicians and government officials have betrayed the ideals of personal liberty and limited government."ùCongressman Ron Paul, M.D. (R-TX), from the Foreword

"Here is a read that will boil the blood (possibly into utter hopelessness). Mr. Napolitano does great to herald the injustices done to the American people by its own government but does not give a very clear solution as to what the American people should do. His views are very akin to Ron Paul's Libertarianism, which I agree with wholeheartedly in many respects, but his moral basis upon which he stands on for his arguments lacks definition."
