If you only want to talk about books that have been published so far that garnered a certain level of attention, then maybe you're right (I suspect there have been books that have done similar but I don't read books designed only to divide so I can't cite examples). But overall there is a consistent, underlying foundation of attacking the religious beliefs of conservative Republicans. They are always portrayed as bible thumping, anti-abortion, impose their will on everyone else, with a history of racism, sexism, and any other ism you want to throw in. Neither side is superior to the other in their invective, their disdane for their opposition, or in some kind of higher ground argument. Hell, the Clinton administration continually (and still continues) to outline a vast right wing conspiracy against them.
As far as:
"But then I could find a dozen more examples of the same thing out of conservative writers and commentators who have a much larger segment of the publics ear."
What do you base this "larger segment of the publics ear on?
