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.
In his introduction, O'Reilly defines this war and breaks down the U.S. population into three camps: the apathetic, the ideologues, and the persuadables. He examines why the nation's motto, E Pluribus Unum ("From Many, One") might change to "What About Me?" He dissects the forces in the media behind the secular-progressive camp and their counterparts on the right, 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 porn epidemic (child and otherwise), and the embattled place of religion in public life. Whatever controversies are roiling the nation, he'll fearlessly confront them - and no one will be in the dark about what side he's on. Culture Warrior showcases Bill O'Reilly at his most eloquent and impassioned. He is a fierce fighter for the soul of America, and in this book he clearly fights the good fight.
