I found a great book that would be a neat Easter basket addition for grown-up revelers who enjoy reading as much as eating those solid chocolate bunnies and Peeps well thieve from the kids baskets on April 8.
Todd Starnes boldly wrote Dispatches From Bitter America: A Gun Toting, Chicken Eating, Son of a Baptists Culture War Stories, and it couldnt be more timely. Its especially relevant because Todd lays out in detail the Obama Administrations war on religious liberty. In addition to covering the state of the union in general, Todd writes about how the government is turning traditional holidays into politically correct secular celebrations complete with renaming the White Houses traditional Easter egg hunt to a Spring Egg hunt instead.
Much of our nations exceptional foundation is rooted in our Judeo-Christian heritage. Many Americans grew up with fond memories of traditional holidays. As we approach the upcoming Easter celebration, we can reflect on this special time of years true meaning and the significance the Easter message provides for our country. Its a message of true hope real hope and strong faith. This faith tradition is something many Americans wish to pass on to our children, and theres nothing bitter about this special element of American culture. Understandably, people of faith feel under siege today from the culture, as encroaching attacks on our religious liberties attempt to erode our foundation. Todd sheds light on this and other fundamental transformation acts using homespun humor and Twainesque irony....

I recently bought this book and now I’m anxious to read it .. as soon as I finish reading “The New Road To Serfdom” by Daniel Hannan (a conservative British MEP). He’s been interviewed on FOX a lot - but not recently.
He starts his book by telling all the slights Obama had perpetrated upon the British people (who are supposed to be our #1 ally). I thought I knew about that - but there were several things BO has done which were never made public.
Thank you for sharing this.
We are approaching a time where we will face a choice of clinging on and being swept under one thing, word, action at a time. Just like a one word change “Easter” to “Spring” is just another step. No hue and cry was made, we are accepting each minor step thinking we will wait for something major to make a stand. Look how far we have come down this path of despair and destruction...the time for choosing is now.
