You'd have to admit this is a background that would be hard to separate from the substance if I were to read it. I know, I know--I would actually have to pick it up before I could make any true judgments. But really, how much hope does someone writing from a virulently partisan standpoint really have of changing the mind of someone from the opposite side of the aisle? This, obviously, is criticism that extends to the left as much as the right.

Here's a link from a CNN Money writer abou the FairTax Book, not your traditional liberal bashing book (although that is good fun). 
Money Magazine: Just how fair is the 'FairTax'? - Sep. 7, 2005
If you really want to read the book, PM me and I'll let you borrow mine. There is also a follow-on book that discusses many of the arguments from detractors of the plan.
