Virginia Attorney General Ken “The Cooch” Cuccinelli achieved one of the obligatory things for candidates for high office today with the release of his book, The Last Line of Defense. The book, Cuccinelli’s first, is a rambling treatise on everything he thinks has gone wrong with America since January 2009, when some guy he doesn’t much like was sworn in as president.

In The Last Line of Defense (Crown Forum, $25), The Cooch frames his time as the Old Dominion’s top law enforcement official around his lawsuit against the 2010 Affordable Care Act. (Spoiler alert: The Supreme Court eventually rules against him and other state attorneys general who filed suits against the law.)

But the book also features other chocks of wisdom for The Cooch, who is currently on track to be the Republican Party’s nominee in Virginia’s gubernatorial election this year. He also rails against government intrusion into things like public recreation facilities. Some passages of The Last Line of Defense are so classically Cuccinelli, that some Virginia Democrats are staging public readings, The Washington Post reports:

“I’m here to talk to you all about the scourge of recreation centers,” began Del. Scott Surovell (D-Fairfax) as he launched into a section of the book in which Cuccinelli questions whether government should provide swimming pools and skating rinks that the private sector could supply.

We didn’t get a review copy of The Last Line of Defense, but one thing we did glean from the preview pages on Amazon is that the final chapter in The Cooch’s book is called “The Liberty Pie.”

What, exactly, is the Liberty Pie? Perhaps it’s just a list of pie recipes revealing a secret talent we never knew The Cooch possessed. Or, better still, it could be a reference to The LIberty Pie Company, a D.C. bakery in the early 20th century that suffered a great tragedy when its pie truck flipped over:
