by Bill Maher
First published 2007
Comedian and political commentator Bill Maher addresses Americans who want to contribute to the war effort but don't know how to help from home. He connects everyday actions to their impact on troops and national security in post-9/11 America. Maher combines his signature humor with practical guidance, showing readers how their daily choices can either support or undermine military efforts abroad. The book serves as both entertainment and instruction manual for citizens seeking meaningful ways to participate in wartime beyond simply displaying patriotic symbols. Maher argues that true patriotism requires thoughtful action rather than empty gestures, providing specific examples of how Americans can make a real difference through their personal decisions and lifestyle choices.
