Dick Morris' 'Outrage' Hits No. 1 on Amazon

Political pundit Dick Morris’ new book "Outrage: How Illegal Immigration, the United Nations, Congressional Ripoffs, Student Loan Overcharges, Tobacco Companies, Trade Protection, and Drug Companies Are Ripping Us Off . . . and What to Do About It," has hit the top of the best-sellers list just one day after its official publication date, reaching No. 1 in the politics section of Amazon.com.

The book is also No. 2 among all nonfiction works on Amazon, and No. 4 overall. On Barnes & Noble’s list, it has reached fourth in nonfiction and ninth overall.

In "Outrage" Morris and co-author Eileen McGann explore a wide range of topics likely to "outrage” readers, including:

  • Special interests cost U.S. consumers $45 billion through trade quotas that save only a handful of jobs.

  • The U.N. is a cover for massive corruption, and 80 countries, which pay 12 percent of the budget, are blocking reform.

  • Teachers' unions block the firing of bad teachers – and battle against higher education standards.

  • Drug companies pay off doctors to write scripts – whether we need them or not.

    On immigration, Morris says: "Are we catching up with the backlog of illegal immigrants? Does our record give us reason to have confidence in Bush's ability to police our border? No and no.

    "We have 12 million illegal immigrants living in the U.S. but we have only 2,000 - that's right, 2,000 - agents sweeping throughout the country to find and deport them. We have 300,000 illegal immigrants in state and federal prisons having committed felonies. When they get out, we won't have the ability to deport them. We only have 27,500 cells in which to house them. Most will simply melt back into the country and commit more crimes.

    "When we do try to deport someone, we usually just send them a notice saying: ‘Please show up in court a week from Tuesday so we can deport you.’ Nobody comes, of course, but we hope they leave the country voluntarily!”
