No He Can't by Kevin McCullough

This is what you get when you have a syndicated talk-radio-Rush-Limbaugh wannabe write a book about his hatred for President Obama.

No He Can't is Kevin McCullough's reasons for why Obama is a bad President.

Seeing as the cover is in deep red with a scowling face of Obama - never-mind the title - you figure this isn't going to be a very positive book on the man or his policies. Which is disappointing since McCullough claims to be a Christian.

Actually, McCullough does give kudos to President Obama for his devotion to his wife and daughters in a couple paragraphs, but the rest of the book is how Obama is either stupid, evil and/or destroying The United States.

The book is divided into 4 parts:

Economics - how Obama's policies are destroying small business as well as the poor. (Big government and all that)
National Security - how there have been a number of terrorist attempts inside our country since Obama took office.
Erosion of Rights - how the President is redefining a person's rights to even what is a person.
Accountability - why we need clarity

Outside of McCullough calling certain people, "animals" and really lashing out at the President, there are a number of facts that go without citations. He does cite a few notes and facts but I was really missing the proof of most of his claims.

While this is probably only going to be a successful book to those who already don't enjoy having Barack Obama as our President, some of the things McCullough writes about are indeed worthy of a follow up and learn what exactly is going on in our federal government.

Obama fans will hate this book but those who actually read this it will need to step back from the venom and fact-check the claims.

This book was provided for review, at no cost, by Thomas Nelson Publishing.

So are you saying because he "claims" to be a Christian he has to write a postive book? If you are Christian are you not allowed to disagree with someone? Are you claiming to be Christian and also writing a negative review? I don't see what his being Christian has anything to do with how he writes his book.

A Christian can absolutely disagree with someone. However, I would hope that a Christian author wouldn't be as mean-spirited as this author came across.
