About this audiobook
Never has an administration taken office with more inflated expectations of turning Washington around. Never have a media-anointed American Idol and his entourage fallen so fast and hard. In her latest investigative tour de force, New York Times bestselling author Michelle Malkin delivers a powerful, damning, and comprehensive indictment of the culture of corruption that surrounds Team Obama's brazen tax evaders, Wall Street cronies, petty crooks, slum lords, and business-as-usual influence peddlers. In Culture of Corruption, Malkin reveals:
-Why nepotism beneficiaries First Lady Michelle Obama and Vice President Joe Biden are Team Obama's biggest liberal hypocrites-bashing the corporate world and influence-peddling industries from which they and their relatives have benefited mightily
-What secrets the ethics-deficient members of Obama's cabinet-including Hillary Clinton-are trying to hide
-Why the Obama White House has more power-hungry, unaccountable "czars" than any other administration
-How Team Obama's first one hundred days of appointments became a litany of embarrassments as would-be appointee after would-be appointee was exposed as a tax cheat or had to withdraw for other reasons
-How Obama's old ACORN and union cronies have squandered millions of taxpayer dollars and dues money to enrich themselves and expand their power
-How Obama's Wall Street money men and corporate lobbyists are ruining the economy and helping their friends
In Culture of Corruption, Michelle Malkin lays bare the Obama administration's seamy underside that the liberal media would rather keep hidden.

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5I tried to give it a chance, calling out corruption is important to any working democracy.
The opening chapters of this book should have been to convince people on the other political side why this is important and why you should be listened to. It completely fails to do that and only seems to be targeted at the echo chamber.
The introduction, where the author should be talking about things like how they came to write the book and why it’s important, is just completely disgusting. It’s very disappointing to hear a journalist talk about other journalists like that.
I then skipped to the first chapter, the part where you start setting up the arguments that you’ll use throughout the book is a retelling of people who left the Obama campaign after it finished. There didn’t seem to be comparison to other campaigns or similar events. As told in Obama’s autobiography, campaigns are hard fought, emotionally exhausting, and take you away from those you care about most, and when successful result in a lot more work, much of which is different to the campaign. It’s natural for people to leave work after a campaign. - Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5While I do not believe the current administration is pure, I have faith in their goals for our country. It is indeed sad to see the corruption in politics that seems to be our heritage (I truly thought we were going to have and administration of 12 year-olds when Obama said they were looking for people with no association with lobbyists!) It would be interesting if Michelle would take her microscope to the Bush administration or even the new leaders of the Republican party, perhaps FOX news and Rush as well. The rating of two is reflective of her writing style more than the content.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5If you know Michelle Malkin and her politics, then this book is pretty much what you would expect. I found her research to be thorough. She offers pages of notes where she gives copious references to back up what she writes here. I read the book all the way through, but mainly I think it's useful as a reference to understanding the "players" in the Obama administration. It was Barack Obama himself who said, "Judge me by the people I surround myself with." Malkin does a thorough job. If you are an Obama backer, then you will undoubtedly disagree with her point of view.
