Books in Brief: The Dark Side of Liberalism: Unchaining the Truth, by Phil Kent

The Dark Side of Liberalism: Unchaining the Truth, by Phil Kent (Harbor House, 201 pp., $24.95)

WE need look no further than the first three words of Phil Kent’s book to grasp its theme: “Conservatives can win.” It’s an important reminder, a counterweight to the prognostications of conservative gloominaries who (often quite understandably) take a less rosy view. Kent, the president of the Southeastern Legal Foundation, a conservative public-interest law firm, is a cheerleader for freedom. His passion is on display in The Dark Side of Liberalism, which attacks the liberal line on everything from race and immigration to taxes and the environment.
