Editorial Reviews:

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.

5 out of 5 stars This is the best of the BEST

What an experience,I've eccomended this to everyone.I have both the book and audio.It gives you the right side to all our issues in this country.

Thank You Bill,Anna Cavey

5 out of 5 stars Horrific!

This isn't "horrific" in a bad sense. I was engrossed by this book and it is excellent. As I read my mind became numb with all the things that Bill was alleging. I was so appalled that I've started looking things up. I have never been a strict Constitutionalist. I believe we need to give the Constitution breathing room, so it can be adaptaed to whatever comes our way. Something tells me we should take the Founding Fathers thoughts under consideration; "When in the course of human events when one people must separate themselves from another..." I didn't get it just right, but you know the rest. I'm not a sessationist, but I think we need to stand up and make our reps know how we feel. I think it says what alot of us are angry about right now.

Please pay attention to what is happening in our country, we have allowed our country to get out of control by our apathy.

Thanks for listening to my rant.

5 out of 5 stars Rational Opinions Count

Bill has done in this book what most people are too scared to do. He has opened the eyes of many, but I'm afraid the politically correct crowd will be offended. In typical O'Reilly fashion, he has been straightforward in his assessment of society. All that is right and all that (or who) causes the wrongs in the direction this country is going in are discussed. I think since he is such a polarizing figure, many people will not even be open-minded enough to read this for the true intent. One of the things I admire Bill for is that no matter what the topic there are facts that will back up his assertions. Jim Fargiano, author of The Spoken Words of Spirit: Lessons From The Other Side

5 out of 5 stars Eye opening read

This book exposes the massive liberal media bias that exist in America. Despite great patriots like O'Reilly and other Fox news contributors the majority of the media continues to be pinheads. If you dont believe me just listen to MSNBC commentary then switch over to Fox News, it is even happening as I write this review.

1 out of 5 stars Amusingly scary, hilariously wrong

[...]

You don't have to get far into this book to realise it's more of the same from the man who's filled his own head with so much right-wing, neo-conservative nonsense that he might actually believe it himself. The fact that he believes the Founding Fathers would somehow favour a society in which religion plays a prominent role goes to show how utterly confused his understanding of his own country is; a mistake he makes within the first 3 pages.

This book was so funny that, if it were labelled a comedy book, I would give it five stars. However, the fact that it was published with the intent of sincerely informing people's opinions demands that I give it 1, and even that's not very well-deserved.

Basic summary: buy it for a good laugh, but prepare to be afraid, very afraid when you realise that someone out there is fighting for cultural values... and that man is Bill O'Reilly.

PS - How do you have a "Culture warrior"? That's like calling the book "Intellectual Barbarian".
