As a proud, patriotic American, you know and cherish the fact that liberty is an inalienable right that is granted to us by God, protected by the Constitution, and upheld by our government. But it is becoming increasingly clear on every day of his disastrous presidency that Barack Obama doesn't share that view. As bestselling author David Limbaugh shows in Crimes Against Liberty: An Indictment of President Barack Obama, Obama regards liberty as a threat to the government's power and something to be quashed by any means possible.

Sarah Palin's was nearly the archetypical American story. She had risen through hard work, education, talent, and courage. She was married to her high school sweetheart, had five children, and had even chosen to give birth to a Down's syndrome child. In a less cruel world, her emergence on that national stage would have been celebrated. Yet, from the moment she joined John McCain on the Republican ticket in 2008, Palin stirred a firestorm of emotion rarely seen in American politics. Who is this woman who has managed to so antagonize the liberal establishment -- even as grassroots conservatives have embraced her as one of their standard-bearers? What is the source of her courage under fire, her uncompromising adherence to principle, her blithe indifference to the scorn of the urban liberal elites?

On March 23, 2010, President Barack Obama signed into law a bill that will lead to the largest expansion of government in the history of the United States. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act was over 2,400 pages long and will reportedly cost a cool $1 trillion over ten years, give or take a few hundred billion.

In The Obama Diaries, popular conservative talk-radio maven and bestselling author Laura Ingraham takes you into the pages of the never-before-revealed secret diaries of the top figures of the Obama Administration -- including the President himself -- shedding new and shocking light on the clumsiness, corruption, and conceit that marked the first year of Obama's presidency. Pairing the riotous and revealing diary entries with incisive analysis of the president’s failings, she spells out how -- as free conservative citizens -- we can push forward the conservative agenda today.

Glenn Beck's latest bestseller is a work of fiction -- but the method of political subversion it is based on is all too real. Named after its originator, the late Josef P. Overton, "The Overton Window" is a way of manipulating public opinion so that ideas once thought of as radical become acceptable -- while ideas once considered mainstream become fringe. Move "the window" of acceptable opinion and you change the debate. Change the debate and you change the country.

Liberals hate and fear him -- and rightly so, since he staggered the Clinton Administration and hasn't lost a step, taking on Barack Obama and the entire Leftist establishment with "half his brain tied behind his back, just to make it fair." Limbaugh's braggadocio, his outrageous satire, and his gleeful slaughtering of liberal sacred cows -- all performed with the zest of a rock-n-roll DJ -- have remained fresh, funny and solidly conservative for over two decades now. But while Rush Limbaugh's public persona is well known and loved by conservatives all over the nation, his background and private life are often misunderstood.

s the Obama administration wavers on the pending trial of 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and his co- conspirators, a former top federal terrorism prosecutor has issued a stern warning for Americans: "The real threat to the U.S. is not terrorism, but the sophisticated force of Islamism collaborating with the American Left." In The Grand Jihad: How Islam and the Left Sabotage America, highly-decorated retired Justice Department official Andrew C. McCarthy depicts and analyzes how the global Islamist movement's jihad involves far more than just terrorist attacks and why Islamists have found an ideal partner in the American Left and President Barack Obama.

Since the election of Barack Obama, increasing numbers of Americans have begun to express fears that they are losing the country they grew up in. And unfortunately, argues economist and commentator Thomas Sowell, they may be right. "While the Obama administration in Washington is not the root cause of the ominous dangers that face this country," writes Sowell in Dismantling America, "it is the embodiment, the personification and the culmination of dangerous trends that began decades ago. Moreover, it has escalated those dangers to what may be a point of no return."

Sebastian Junger was haunted by what he called the "hand-grenade question": Why would a man throw himself on a hand grenade to save other men he has known for probably only a few months? To find the answer, the fearless author of the #1 bestseller (and later hit film) The Perfect Storm spent 14 months in 2007–2008 accompanying 30 men -- a single platoon -- from the U.S. Army's 2nd battalion as they fought their way through a remote valley in eastern Afghanistan.

Karl Rove learned about the cost of his Republican affiliation at the age of nine -- when a JFK supporter across the street pushed him off his bicycle and beat him up for supporting Nixon. Far from deterring him, it only strengthened his convictions -- and led to life devoted to conservative politics: Rove ran the nationwide College Republicans before he had even earned a degree, and helped turn a Texas dominated by Democrats into a Republican bastion. He launched George W. Bush to national renown by unseating a popular Democratic governor, and then orchestrated a Republican White House win at a time when voters had little reason to throw out the incumbent party.

When a reporter asked House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to explain where in the Constitution she found the authority to nationalize the health insurance industry, she laughed and replied, "Are you serious? Are you serious?" So what if the Constitution says nothing about granting the federal government the power to force Americans to buy approved health insurance packages? As Virginia's Democratic Senator Mark Warner explained, "There is no place in the Constitution that talks about you ought to have the right to get a telephone, but we have made those choices as a country over the years."

When Barack Obama arrived in Washington, say Dick Morris and Eileen McGann, our nation fell into the grip of a committed socialist. And his slate of radical legislation in 2009 and 2010 is only a beginning: If we let him keep control of Congress in 2011 and 2012, he will destroy our free enterprise system and replace it with government control of all aspects of our lives. "Obama does not represent merely an alternative ideology or a different set of substantive priorities. He wants to change the basic philosophy and guiding principles of our nation -- to turn us into something we have never been, and that most of us don't want to become." That's why the 2010 elections will be the critical turning point for America's future. Now, in 2010: Take Back America: A Battle Plan, Morris and McGann explain why the stakes are so high next November -- and outline a strategy for victory.

The benefits of using the Internet -- quick access to loads of information, potent searching and filtering toolds, an easy way to share opinions with a small but interested audience -- are many and undeniable. But they come at a price: evidence is mounting that widespread, habitual Internet use is chipping away at our capacity for concentration and contemplation. The more we take in information and ideas the way the Net distributes it -- in an endless stream of bits and bytes -- the less we're able to read and even think deeply. What's going on? Author and essayist Nicholas Carr argues that the tools we use to think with -- our "intellectual technologies" -- not only shape our habits of thought, but exert an actual physical influence on the neurons and synapses in our brains. Now, in The Shallows: What the Internet Is Doing to Our Brains, Carr looks at the Internet in this context, examining what the scientific and historical evidence tells about the effects it is having on our thoughts, memories, and even emotions -- and how different its effects are from those exerted by earlier intellectual technologies such as the printed book.

In 1859, Charles Darwin introduced his theory of evolution to argue that blind nature had produced all the species of plants and animals around us. The theory convinced a lot of people that evidence of a Creator could not be found in nature. If some things remained mysterious, scientists would figure them out in time -- to attribute their origins to God, they insisted, was simply to give up on the enterprise of science. Today, Darwinists level the same charge against the contemporary theory of Intelligent Design (ID). They insist that ID is just an argument from ignorance -- plugging God into the gaps of our current scientific understanding. "Darwinists have made many thoughtful arguments over the years," write William Dembski and Jonathan Witt, "but this isn’t one of them. Now, in Intelligent Design Uncensored: An Easy-to-Understand Guide to the Controversy, Dembski and Witt -- both leading figures in the ID movement -- plainly lay out just what intelligent design is, and is not, and why efforts to silence its proponents are doomed to fail.

Although William F. Buckley, Jr. is best remembered as the founder and editor of National Review, it was his own writing -- which brought conservative ideas to a vast audience through dazzling style and wit -- that counts as his most impressive achievement. Now, Linda Bridges and Roger Kimball have assembled the most comprehensive collection of Buckley's opinion pieces ever published. Culled from millions of published words spanning nearly sixty years, Athwart History: Half a Century of Polemics, Animadversions, and Illuminations offers Buckley's commentary on the American and international scenes.

On July 4, 1937, twelve-year-old Jack Levin, later to become father of conservative radio host and author Mark Levin, walked several miles from his home to the parade route where the city of Philadelphia was celebrating our nation’s founding. There, one of the dignitaries in the parade caught young Jack's eye -- a Civil War veteran, dressed in his old Union uniform. "The soldier would become seared in my father's mind," writes Mark Levin today. "The most costly war in American history had become real to him. Thus began my father's lifelong journey of self-education and patriotic preaching about this great nation's history and founding principles." And since Jack had a particular admiration for Abraham Lincoln and a talent for drawing and design, in the 1960s he personally designed and produced this beautiful volume -- enhanced with period illustrations and striking battlefield images by Matthew Brady and other renowned photographers of the era -- which brings to life the words of Lincoln's awe-inspiring response to one of the Civil War's costliest conflicts.

"Washington is broken," said Barack Obama while on the campaign trail, and he's busy making it worse. While an adoring media heaps on adulation, Obama has (at an "historic" and "unprecedented" record pace, according to his media sycophants) presided over the appointment of an appalling rogue's gallery of crooks, cronies and tax cheats to the highest levels of our government -- while reneging on promises to make government more transparent and accountable to ordinary Americans. Now at last, in Culture of Corruption: Obama and His Team of Tax Cheats, Crooks & Cronies, bestselling author Michelle Malkin tears to shreds the mythical Obama constructed by the liberal media, and tells the full story about how this sinister new administration started out corrupt and is only getting more corrupt.

When members of the so-called "Jesus Seminar" and other like-minded scholars speak of the "historical Jesus," they typically mean to contrast that with the Jesus of the Gospels. The implication, of course, is that the Gospels are not historically reliable -- and that other ancient sources of information about Jesus are presumably more so.

Barack Obama is the first post-American President: the first to regard America as just one nation among many, unexceptional in any way; and the first to regard himself as not just the president of the United States, but as an internationalist laying the groundwork for global government -- the president of the world. Since he has taken office he has been hard at work to accomplish that vision: destroying the free-market system and nationalizing major segments of the U.S. economy, restricting dissent and the freedom of speech in general, turning against longtime friends of the United States, and above all subjecting America to the determinations of foreign authorities.

When Conn Iggulden's first book, the oh-so- politically-incorrect Dangerous Book for Boys, appeared in 2007, it became a cultural phenomenon -- selling nearly two million copies (and counting) and spending 49 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list. Now, in The Dangerous Book of Heroes, Conn and David Iggulden deliver the perfect sequel. Filled with the same sense of adventure and infectious enthusiasm as its predecessor, this all-new collection brings our great heroes of history back to life.
