The One Percent Doctrine (Abridged): Deep Inside America's Pursuit of Its Enemies Since 9/11 Audiobook

" A good inside look at the initial response to the 9/11 attacks and America's evolving effort to fight terrorism. Reveals frighteningly clearly why the Bush Adm., with Cheney as the puppetmaster, dragged us into the morasse we're in. "

" Great book with deeply disappointing content. It's one thing to ignore data in the course of making decisions. It's even worse to shed data that diminishes your view. I get how people were scared, how a one percent probability of an existential threat is "hard math" but this is beyond the pale. "

" Lots of inside information, but kind of boring if you are not really into intellegence issues and iformation gathering. "

" Terrific sources take you inside the Bush Whitehouse and the intelligence community to our reactions and over-reactions to 911. Scary in the excesses and failures detailed. "

" The best clear explanation for why we're in the mess we are in. Tells the story clearly with a feeling of sympathy for decision makers with out absolving them of responsibility. "

" Helpful book to understand the radical foreign policy changes after 9/11 and particularly the "Cheney Doctrine" where even a 1% threat must be treated as a certainty. "

" I have a better understandiing of how we got into the WMD mess. "

" Illustrates Cheney's Dr. Strangelovian lunacy at its best. Details the deconstruction of the Constitution utilizing the Orwellian fear methodology. Key reading for those who want to know WTF happened 2000-2008. For those who don't, "go shopping." "

" Very interesting look inside the CIA after 9/11 and how things changed. Kind of slow for me towards the middle, but pretty interesting nonetheless. "

" This book was great. Well-written and informative. Not unduly biased despite the topic. "

" A must read for all interested in eliminating the terrorist threat. Dick Cheney would agree. Read the book and stop guessing. "

" Most likely to be required reading in collegiate Civics classes twenty years from now. "

" Because I trust Suskind, and I want to scare the shit out of myself. "

" The world sure is a messy place... "

" Started this one, couldn't finish it. Just not that interesting a read. "

" This book shed a lot of light on the decision-making process of the Bush administration where it pertains to the "war on terror". The terrorists have succeeded of course. You have greater odds of dying of an allergic reaction to aspirin, but everyone is so afraid of being killed by a terrorist. "

" Scary what Dick Cheney was able to do. "

" An interesting, and somewhat disturbing view of how the zeal to keep America safe of Dick Cheney, and several other White House officials during the Bush Administration, led them to abandon many basic principals of morality, ethics, and common sense. "

" I can't stand this "Docurama" writing style. "

" This book is simply brilliant. One of the best accounts of the Bush administration's policies in the war on terror that I have read. "

" Good book on telling you the background issues and history to GWOT. Also it talks about Chenny's 1% doctrine and his control over the Whitehouse. I highly suggest this, to those who want to look at all facets in this period of american history. "

" Great book about the inner workings of the Bush Administrations war on terrorism! "

" this book really suprized me by not being a hack job against buch and cheney, treats them both w/respect while dissagreeing w/them. Edward Herrmann is like James Earl Jones in that you Listen to every word. powerful, authoritative voice. "
