The vote is over, a new government is being assembled, and a new agenda is being delivered to taxpayers, and they are responding with questions about whether the opportunity to regain America remains, pushing “Taking America Back” by Joseph Farah into the top spot among best-sellers at Shop.WND.com this week.
According to Farah, the founder and editor of WND.com, the Internet’s leading independent news site, Americans are facing an unresponsive and unaccountable one-party political system, an establishment propaganda machine posing as a free press, and educational, charitable, entertainment and religious institutions seduced by the materialistic gods of an all-powerful secular state.
He argues the crisis created by these circumstances cannot be fixed just by electing new politicians, and a long-term shift is needed, one that “affirms the values upon which the American Nation was founded.”
But can that happen? The book argues Americans have moved from being freedom fighters to comfort lovers and if people do not want to end up where that path leads, they need to make some changes.
“It is time to choose the kind of country in which we want to live, whether we want to live under the rule of law or under the rule of judicial government and a constitution that is a ‘living document,’ which for all practical purposes means living without a constitution,” the book argues.
“The choice is simple: the world of standards and morality, of marriage, order, the rule of law, and accountability to God or the world of anything goes, aberrant behavior, do-your-own-thing lifestyles, and moral codes that change with the speed of the latest public opinion polls,” Farah writes.
How can Americans take back their nation? The author says the only way to re-establish the God-given rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness is to break the “hammerlock of statism and the notion that moral relativism holds the answers to ordering people’s passions and behavior.”

In second place this week is Brad O’Leary’s book, “The Audacity of Deceit,” which raises concerns about Sen. Barack Obama’s history, values and plan for the United States’ future.
Just exactly what is beneath the Obama’s well-polished rhetoric? Obama speaks vaguely about “change,” but O’Leary contends Obama’s “change” is a hostile attack on Judeo-Christian values and freedoms most Americans hold dear.
“It is change designed to uproot American culture and replace it with the failed, secular, socialist policies of the past,” according to the book.
O’Leary discusses how Obama blocked emergency medical aid for babies who survived abortions, plans to ban the use of firearms by law-abiding citizens – even for self-defense, how his values are influenced by his childhood abandonment by a Muslim bigamist father, his plans to make the U.S. Treasury the ATM for the United Nations and his plans to mandate that child-rearing responsibility be taken from parents and given to the federal government.

In third is “The Marketing of Evil: How Radicals, Elistists, and Pseudo-Experts Sell Us Corruption Disguised as Freedom” by David Kupelian.
He documents how Americans have come to tolerate, embrace and even champion many things that would have horrified their parents’ generation – from easy divorce and unrestricted abortion-on-demand to extreme body piercing and teaching homosexuality to grade-schoolers.
The question then, is whether that means today’s Americans are inherently more morally confused and depraved than previous generations? Kupelian says no.
“But they have fallen victim to some of the most stunningly brilliant and compelling marketing campaigns in modern history,” he writes.
“The Marketing of Evil” reveals how much of what Americans once almost universally abhorred has been packaged, perfumed, gift-wrapped and sold to them as though it had great value.
“Highly skilled marketers, playing on our deeply felt national values of fairness, generosity and tolerance, have persuaded us to embrace as enlightened and noble that which all previous generations since America’s founding regarded as grossly self-destructive – in a word, evil.”
“David Kupelian dares to tell the truth about the overwhelming forces in our society which take us far away from our original American concept of freedom with responsibility, happiness with commitments, and traditional values,” says Dr. Laura Schlessinger, talk-show host and author. “‘The Marketing of Evil’ is a serious wake-up call for all who cherish traditional values, the innocence of children, and the very existence of our great country.”
