Christmas under siege: The big picture "Christmas is taking flack. The reason it's happening is that secular progressives realize that America as it is will never agree with gay marriage, euthanasia, partial birth abortion, and many other progressive visions because of religious opposition. But if the secularists can destroy religion in the public arena, the brave new progressive world is a possibility. That's what happened in Canada. The fall of religion in Canada has corresponded to the rise in progressive public policy. Most Canadians now favor gay marriage; welfare is double what it is in the USA; and the Canadian military is almost nonexistent. The Canadian model is what progressive Americans are shooting for. Americans will lose their country if they don't begin to take action. Talking Points is convinced that the USA can not defeat terrorism and any other evil without a strong traditional foundation that clearly defines right and wrong. The struggle today is not about Christmas, but about the spirit of our country."

Fox News analyst Newt Gingrich explained who is behind the attack on Christmas. "I'd use the word radical instead of progressive," Gingrich told The Factor. "There's a radical faction that hates the idea that we are a faith-based country. Their efforts are a dagger at the very heart of our spirit and our nature as a country." He suggested that Congress and the President have the power to fight back, particularly against judges who ally themselves with "progressive" causes. "You could take the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, take the five or six wackiest judges out there, determine that they don't understand America, and simply abolish their office." The Factor contended America could follow the same route as Canada. "I see Canadians and Americans as the same people, with the same roots, yet that country has become radicalized. If it can happen there, it can happen here."

Its funny hearing Bill O’Reilly defend Dan Rather. If you read between the lines, you can almost hear Bill defending himself against the charges brought on by Andrea Mackriss, his Associate producer.

I do not know if what ,Mackriss alleged was the truth or just a game plan to pay off some bills and get a new condo in New York, but that is not point.

Here is what O Reilly said in defense of the indefensible.

The ordeal of Dan Rather goes far beyond the man himself. It speaks to the presumption of guilt that now rules the day in America. Because of a ruthless and callow media, no citizen, much less one who achieves fame, is given the benefit of the doubt when it comes to allegations or personal attacks. The smearing of America is in full bloom.

I don’t know if Bill is trying to earn “brownie points”, maybe he wants the CBS Evening News job? But to defend Rather in what was the most embarrassing point in CBS history is ludicrous.

Bill O’Reilly is not what many thought he was, he is just like anyone of us, human and very vulnerable.
