Based on 18 months of reporting, Woodward's 17th book is an intimate, documented examination of how President Obama and the highest profile Republican and Democratic leaders in the United States Congress attempted to restore the American economy and improve the federal government's fiscal condition over three and one half years. Drawn from memos, contemporaneous meeting notes, emails and in-depth interviews with the central players, THE PRICE OF POLITICS addresses the key issue of the presidential and congressional campaigns: the condition of the American economy and how and why we got there. Providing verbatim, day-by-day, even hour-by-hour accounts, the book shows what really happened, what drove the debates, negotiations and struggles that define, and will continue to define, the American future.

I'm just a photographer who's trying to capture a spirit. It's not an intellectual process; it's an intuitive process. PlatonEverything is political. I will never be a politician or even think political. Me just deal with life and nature. That is the greatest thing to me. Bob MarleyEverybody is a political person, whether you say something or you are silent. A political attitude is not whether you go to parliament; it's how you deal with your life, with your surroundings. Paulo CoelhoMy greatest political asset, which professional politicians fear, is my mouth, out of which come all kinds of things one shouldn't always discuss for reasons of political expediency. Shirley ChisholmAs a black woman, my politics and political affiliation are bound up with and flow from participation in my people's struggle for liberation, and with the fight of oppressed people all over the world against American imperialism. Angela DavisI hate all politics. I don't like either political party. One should not belong to them - one should be an individual, standing in the middle. Anyone that belongs to a party stops thinking. Ray Bradbury"Collecting more taxes than is absolutely necessary is legalized robbery." Calvin Coolidge"Don't write so that you can be understood; write so that you can't be misunderstood." William H. Taft"Efforts and courage are not enough without purpose and direction." John F. Kennedy"For this is what America is all about: It is the uncrossed desert and the unclimbed ridge. It is the star that is not reached and the harvest that is sleeping in the unplowed ground." Lyndon B. Johnson"Have you not learned that not stocks or bonds or stately houses, or products of the mill or field are our country? It is a spiritual thought that is in our minds." Benjamin Harrison

MAGA hats, pussy hats. Hijabs, handmaids' bonnets. Safe spaces, safe streets. Voter fraud, voter suppression. George Soros, the Koch Brothers. Live free or die, no justice no peace. See any similarities? If so, you've just violated rule No.1 of turbo-partisan America: That no matter how closely one side's position, pet hate, personal taste, or language mirrors the other's, any claim of left-right equivalence is patently false, and probably deeply offensive. But what if the false equivalence isn't actually false, and what both sides really need is a bracing slap of refined bothsiderism? The Little Book of Left-Right Equivalence is that slap, a no-holds-barred catalog of interchangeable idiocies, double dual-standards, and two-way u-turns that shows no favor and takes no prisoners. Set in short couplets rather than traditional book prose, and offering an unusual mix of serious and satirical - and highbrow and lowbrow - it is guaranteed to outrage, delight and enlighten.
