Shut Up & Sing

How Elites from Hollywood, Politics, and the UN are Subverting America

By: Laura Ingraham

Narrated by: Erin Novotny

Meet the elites.

They think you're stupid. They think all freedom-loving Americans are stupid. They think patriotism is stupid. They think churchgoing is stupid. They think flag-flying is stupid. They despise families with more than two children. They are sure that where we live - anywhere but near or in a few major cities - is an insipid cultural wasteland.

They think your SUV is evil - although theirs is absolutely necessary. They think owning a gun is criminal. They think George Bush is an idiot. They even think it's wrong for us to do what we have to do to protect our nation and our loved ones. Worst of all, they think our abiding belief in the goodness of America and its founding principles is naïve and misguided.

But in this refreshing and blisteringly insightful look at the elites, Laura Ingraham reveals that it is they, not us, who are pickled in prejudice, morally blind, and outrageously hypocritical. In a word, it is they who are stupid. Ingraham exposes the outrageous howlers and muddled thinking peddled by a rogue's gallery of Hollywood celebs, media yuppies, trial lawyers, multiculturalists, God-haters, and race-relations bullies who are exalted as heroes by the elite.

Ingraham unmasks the shallowness of elite thinking everywhere it is found: in politics, the media, the ivory tower, arts and entertainment, and even business and international organizations. Nor does she restrict her skewering of the elite only to its natural home, the Democratic Party - she ably zeroes in on elite enclaves within the GOP as well.

Laura first woman president!

I love this book and more importantly this person. She is what making America great is all about. First you start out with good people and reason things out. This is Laura . Our constitution has "In God We Trust" created a clear map for us us to follow. President Laura Ingraham could Keep us on a Steady path in the Pursuit of happiness. Something that can not be bought for People with Politicians buying their vote. They need go to Washington and be of Service for 1 or 2 Terms then go back to their Pursuit of happiness not power.

The only thing that’s not giving it other reading overall is the narrator

Oh my God, I can get over the voice. It brings back memories of listening to audiobooks at school, but the dubbing. Or recording whatever you wanna call it it’s awful. I don’t know if it’s because this book is so old they cut out the cursing because there was several points where I could clearly tell where she meant to curse, and it was cut, but extremely poorly or the audio would fade for one second and go back to normal just really weird stuff other than that besides narration, which brings this book down by a lot. It’s a good read. It’s definitely out but it was interesting because I wasn’t old enough to know what was going on in politics in 2012 so somewhat interesting and she predicts a lot of stuff that happened today with stuff that was happening is now much worse. I’m listening this on 1.25 speed thank God because on normal speed it would be even worse deposit weird stuff if you’re going to listen to this book, listen to it on the faster speed or get a different book by Laura because she narrates all the other books that are on audible. And if you still really wanna read this book I recommend not listening to instead actually reading it!

Read and learn why liberals and Europeans envy us

Well written, informative, gives a perspective that helps understand the virulence against every Republican liberals espouse

Distractingly horrific narration

How could the performance have been better?

The narration was, bluntly, the worst that I've ever heard. Disjointed and jerky, Ms. Novotny's narration was a huge distraction.

On point!

In depth view of how Hollywood elite are telling people how to live while they live in their million dollar homes.
