With three straight #1 bestsellers and more than 4 million copies of his books in print, the most powerful traditional force in the American media now takes off his gloves in the ongoing struggle for America?s heart and soul.

Bill O?Reilly is the very embodiment of the idea of a Culture Warrior?and in this book he lives up to the title brilliantly, with all the brashness and forthrightness at his command. He sees that America is in the midst of a fierce culture war between those who embrace traditional values and those who want to change America into a ?secular-progressive? country. This is a conflict that differs in many ways from the usual liberal/conservative divide, but it is no less heated, and the stakes are even higher.
In Culture Warrior, Bill O?Reilly defines this war and analyzes the competing philosophies of the traditionalist and secular-progressive camps. He examines why the nation?s motto ?E Pluribus Unum? (?From Many, One?) might change to ?What About Me??; dissects the forces driving the secular-progressive agenda in the media and behind the scenes, including George Soros, George Lakoff, and the ACLU; and dives into matters of race, education, and the war on terror. He also shows how the culture war has played out in such high-profile instances as The Passion of the Christ, Fahrenheit 9/11, the abuse epidemic (child and otherwise), and the embattled place of religion in public life?with special emphasis on the war against Christmas. Whatever controversies are roiling the nation, he fearlessly confronts them?and no one will be in the dark about which side he?s on.
Culture Warrior showcases Bill O?Reilly at his most eloquent and impassioned. He is an unrelenting fighter for the soul of America, and in this book he fights the good fight for the traditional values that have served this country so well for so long.

Good Read

136 bad reviews c'mon are you serious. Nowhere near Ann Coulter at all. Bill is an INDEPENDENT not a conservative. Take the advice from someone who is neutral and has an open mind. This book is not bad like some want you to think. Do I agree with Bill on everything...NO. Bill is as arrogant as ever but I like that in people who will call you on your crap. I do see that there is a culture war as Bill puts it. They are trying to kill religion. I don't even believe in religion but I'm not so dumb and narrow minded to see what's going on. Values in America have taking a back seat giving rise to agendas on both sides for years and the middleman suffers (people like me). And it's getting worse. Some of these reviews are by people who you can tell never even read the book. They just hate Bill and you for reading it. And then tell you he is the hater. This is a good book people. If you read it and don't agree that's your right. Read books from both sides of the spectrum to get a fair idea of what's going on around you. And don't hate someone because he/she does not agree with you on certain issues. In other words don't be childish and don't be a hater. I am for traditional values. It's how I was raised. Take responsibility for your own actions. I can do without religion but if that what makes you a better person than more power to you.

Irreverend !

Bill O'Reilly is known for his positions on a plethora
of societal issues. The book describes the continuous
battle for the hearts and minds of children.
"Control the children and you control the future." O'Reilley Tzu
I guess this is a reference to a Chinese philosopher.

The author describes scenarios; wherein, parents have accurately
documented critical incidents in order to set up constructive
confrontations on key issues. The continuous contention between
the Courts and the ACLU is described in story after story.
In one case, the State of Florida experimented with the
notion of assisting the poor with school vouchers for
private school settings. The book describes how the Florida
Supreme Court ruled against directing fees to private schools.

Private schools are an important ingredient in the
fabric of American education. Take away the private schools
and the public school budgets would be stressed to the
breaking point. Virtually, every inner city mayor
understands this inescapable concept.

The author discusses a very thorny point in traditionalism
versus non-traditionalist notions and the underground culture.
For instance, Dr. King was a traditionalist by the author.
Oprah Winfrey weighs in as a traditionalist after having
banned street rappers from her program. In essence, too few
Afro-Americans wave the traditionalist banner. The book
concludes that our country needs strong African-American
leaders who understand the Judeo-Christian traditions,
discipline and personal accountability. I would add to this
institutional accountability !

Currently, conservative Christians are engaged in the
struggle to recapture the American culture. The author
believes that atheists and agnostics should join the
struggle because our interests converge in the all-important
area of American values and value systems/processes.
Besides, the traditional American roots are worthy of
preservation to a considerable extent.

Most hated figure in media?

O'Reilly is a great writer. Entertaining. But something about this one makes him come off real bitter. It's understandable, the guy is the most hated figure in media, but I think he is above some of the jabs he takes here. Talks alot about his enemies but nothing about his allies, maybe because he has none. Either way its a must read for O'Reilly fans and everyone else that is fed up with the mainstream media....
