- catalog abstract "Below the Beltway skewers Washington in the age of Clinton with Jackley's trademark brand of outrageous humor and muckraking revelations. From the opening chapter where he accompanies an undercover television crew on a congressional sting that made headlines, Jackley takes you into the real world of Washington - the political back alleys of scandal and corruption. Jackley shows you how politics is really played in Washington: how laws are made, policies decided, Influence sold, careers made and lost, spouses dumped - and taxpaying voters like you taken for fools. He introduces you to the "low-lifes in high places" who grease the wheels of Washington's corrupt political machine. He tutors you where necessary in the arcane lingo of the political class, a dialect spoken only by insiders. Below the Beltway lambastes politicians, pundits, bureaucrats, consultants, lawyers, and lobbyists with a vengeance that will have them howling. With rage and you with laughter. But there is a dead-serious purpose to Jackley's hilarious expose: to reveal the wide and growing divide between America's privileged "public servants" and the people they purport to serve.".
