Two Steps Ahead of the Thought Police presents one of the liveliest, funniest, and most insightful commentators in America - John Leo. No one gets to the heart of a social issue more quickly, or with more sharpness and wit. Leo goes to an academic convention where teachers attack the "white maleness" of the game show Jeopardy, and he reveals a plaintive letter from SWAM (Straight White American Males) demanding their own minority parade. He adds up the total number of victims in America - 1.2 billion in a population of 251 million - and explains Leo's First Law of Racial Folly: All setbacks for integration will immediately be hailed as triumphs for diversity. Ranging widely over popular culture, law, education, politics, and language, Leo writes about Ozzie and Harriet, "bodice-ripping" novels, the sneaky side of the sneaker business, Republican buzzwords, and the dizzying effect of an average Mario Cuomo phone call.
