If you read the book you would see the whole problem clearly in an objective manner.
One would have no choice but to agree with the author if one was capable of critical thinking.
Well, of course honest conservatives don't slander liberals, anymore than honest liberals slander conservatives. Honest people, by definition, don't slander.

And there are people equally objective who come to the opposite conclusion; I'm sure there are equally good books from the other side, that are equally well thought out. There is more than just a single conclusion that can be drawn from any given set of facts, and sometimes, it's not clear that any single interpretation is any better than the others.
