Book Reviews of Culture Warrior
Book Review: Culture warrior - an interesting concept - and book
Summary: 4 Stars
As many others, I have watched the O'Reilly Factor, and typically enjoyed the liveliness of debate, and the presentation of multiple points of view. That being said, I was curious about the book, and am not disappointed.
Bill O'Reilly explains in a very clear headed way what he is trying to achieve (besides money and fame) in his career, and why, and I believe him.
He has a coherent theory about the culture war between these who believe that the spirit of America is great (with a place for some minor fixes, but not a major change), and these who believe America is a bad place, and want to change it to be like the Scandinavian countries.
The book brings a lot of seemingly unconnected issues (the war on Christmas, school vouchers, disregard for parental involvement in school) and ties them together in an interesting way, that even if you do not agree with, causes you to stop and think.
That being said, the book sometimes gets into too many details about personal attacks on Bill, which emphasize that Bill is under attack (it is a war ...), but does not contribute to the main message in the book.
Book Review: Don't agree on everything, but still a good book.
Summary: 4 Stars
I don't see eye to eye with all of Bill O'Reilly's views, especially his views on foreign policy and the war on terror. Needless to say, I never thought I was going to enjoy his book Culture Warrior, but truth be told I found his book very well written and informative.
Bill opened my eyes up to the media bias along with the highly influential leaders and contributors of secular-progressivism - which in a nutshell is socialism.
Bill also voices the truth about the ACLU. I was surprised to find out how harmful the ACLU really is when it comes to traditional values.
My favorite chapter was chapter 15 in which Bill breaks down what it takes to be a traditionalist.
All in all, I found Culture Warrior to be a very honest and informative book and I would highly recommend it.
Book Review: Enlightening. Good stuff.
Summary: 5 Stars
Bill gets a bad rap. He's a great guy who truly cares about our country, it's people, and our culture and traditions.
It's a quick/enjoyable read.
Book Review: Entertaining if at times questionable
Summary: 4 Stars
I don't agree with everything about Bill O'Reilly, but I did find this book entertaining. Entertaining in that "watchdog journalism" can be some fascinating stuff, especially when the material being questioned is stuff that you don't generally hear about on the nightly news (namely the "secular progressive" movement.) O'Reilly provides some interesting facts to back up his arguments, and although some is questionable, I did enjoy the read.Book Review: Everything That is Wrong with America
Summary: 1 Stars
Bill O'Reilly typifies everthing that is wrong with America today and is leading to our empires demise: the rationaliztion and agrandizment of uncontrolled wealth and its destructiion of the middle and working classes, the justification of military adventurism for private gain, the deregulation of industries that are not about to control themselves, attempts at government erosion of religious freedom by those who would corrupt the separation of church and state, the continued prohibition of controlled substances and the subsequent creation of a criminal underground. What this archaic "culture warrior" really needs is a some of his snapping teeth knocked out by a few good hard lefts to the mouth.
