10. 365 Manners Kids Should Know by Sheryl Eberly
Why do today's children have such appallingly bad manners? One reason is that, for at least a generation, manners training in the home has been neglected; indeed, many parents have forgotten some basic rules of etiquette themselves. Now, Sheryl Eberly, a former White House aide to Nancy Reagan, gives parents an accessible plan for teaching (and learning!) good manners that begins in the home and covers every social situation and etiquette opportunity children will encounter. Far more than a simple rule book, "365 Manners Kids Should Know" provides anecdotes, advice, and activities for turning rules into habits.
9. "Is It True What They Say About Ann?" DVD by Elinor Burkett and Patrick Wright
Go behind the scenes with Ann Coulter, and meet the woman behind the stinging barb and the quick wit. In the documentary "Is It True What They Say About Ann?" you'll see the "conservative movement's diva" at her best. The most controversial political commentator of our day, Ann Coulter is the author of the bestselling "Godless," "Slander," "Treason," and "How to Talk to a Liberal." And finally, here’s a documentary that spotlights this fascinating woman. Ann’s legions of fans won’t want to miss this DVD full of exclusive interviews, classic television clips, and Coulter insight.
8. Godless by Ann Coulter
In past #1 bestsellers, Ann Coulter has revealed how liberals lie about their conservative opponents (Slander). She's shown how the Left routinely stands with America's enemies against America herself (Treason). She's even defended liberalism's ultimate bogeyman: Joe McCarthy. But now, Coulter ups the ante once again. In Godless: The Church of Liberalism, she shows how liberal hostility to traditional religion stems from the fact that liberalism is itself a religion -- a godless one. And, she reveals, thanks to the liberals who dominate our courts, our government bureaucracies, our schools, and our media, liberalism is now the established religion of our country.
7. The Gold Rose on Silver Pendant
Dazzle the precious women in your life with a gift made of precious metal. The Gold Rose on Silver Pendant is layered in pure, 24-karat gold. The Rose rests on a background of pure silver, and the contrast in precious metals is spectacular. This gold and silver medallion is placed in a sterling silver teardrop bezel, which hangs from a matching 18-inch sterling sliver chain. With today’s jewelry, it is rare to find pendants, rings and necklaces made from pure gold and silver -- most jewelers prefer sterling silver and 14- or 18- karat gold. For example, 14-karat gold means that the jeweler is using 14 “parts” of gold and 10 “parts” of other metals-copper, nickel, zinc, etc.... Jewelers avoid pure silver and gold because they complain they’re too soft and too expensive!
6. Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters by Dr. Meg Meeker
That’s right -- and teen health expert Dr. Meg Meeker has the data and clinical experience to prove it. After more than twenty years of counseling girls, she knows that fathers, more than anyone else, set the course for their daughters’ lives. Now, she shows you how to strengthen -- or rebuild -- your bond with your daughter, and use it to shape her life, and yours, for the better. Directly challenging the feminist attack on traditional masculinity, Dr. Meeker demonstrates that the most important factor for confident, well-adjusted women is a strong father with conservative values. To have one, she shows, is the best protection against eating disorders, failure in school, STD’s, unwed pregnancy, and drug or alcohol abuse -- and the best predictor of academic achievement, successful marriage, and a satisfying emotional life.
5. "The Case for a Creator" DVD by Lee Strobel
Based upon Lee Strobel’s New York Times bestselling book, the new DVD “The Case for a Creator” is a remarkable documentary about Strobel’s personal journey from atheism to faith in God. This compelling DVD presents Strobel's search for the truth about intelligent design in the universe. During his academic years, Strobel became convinced that God was outmoded, a belief that colored his ensuing career as an award-winning journalist at the Chicago Tribune. Science made the idea of a Creator irrelevant… or so Strobel thought. Then, in 1980, his wife’s conversion to Christianity led him on an intensive search for the truth about God. Not surprisingly, he began with science.
4. Culture Warrior by Bill O'Reilly
With three straight #1 bestsellers and the highest-rated talk show on cable TV, Bill O'Reilly is one of our nation's most formidable battlers in the culture war -- and that's the subject of his latest book, Culture Warrior. In it, this unrelenting fighter for the soul of America marshals all of his celebrated firepower for the defense of traditional values against those who want to transform America into a secular-progressive country. The culture war, O'Reilly explains, differs in many ways from the usual liberal/conservative divide, but it is no less heated -- and the stakes are even higher for those who love the values on which our nation is founded.
3. The Official 2006 White House Christmas Ornament
The "Official 2006 White House Christmas Ornament" honors the administration of the 21st President of the United States Chester A. Arthur (1881–85). Having served just six months as vice president to James A. Garfield, Arthur assumed the presidency in September 1881 when Garfield succumbed to the wounds inflicted by an assassin's bullet. He brought to the White House a luxurious style that signaled the nation's return to prosperity after the economic troubles of the late 1870s. The design of the "Official 2006 White House Christmas Ornament" is inspired by the period motifs and rich decor of Arthur's White House, which will be forever distinguished by the early work of famed American artist and decorator Louis Comfort Tiffany.
2. America Alone by Mark Steyn
Are you ready for a conflict between America and the rest of the world? In "America Alone: The End of the World As We Know It," Mark Steyn (the most widely read and wittiest columnist in the world today) argues that that’s just what’s coming. European and Islamic anti-Americanism, he explains, threatens to leave us isolated in the world: the global situation is rapidly reaching a point at which America will have to confront the enemies of civilization without help from anyone else. And when the world is divided between America and the rest, all those who don’t want to see the world shrouded in a new Dark Ages should hope that America wins.
1. Conservative Comebacks to Liberal Lies by Gregg Jackson
It happens to all of us: we’re debating some liberal friend or colleague when he makes an unsupported claim we’re just positive is false – but we don’t have the hard facts to prove it. Or we’re confronted with slick arguments for, say, legalizing “gay marriage,” but aren’t quite ready with the strongest counter-arguments. Now there’s help. In "Conservative Comebacks to Liberal Lies," Boston talk-radio host Gregg Jackson provides tightly argued, fully documented responses to no fewer than 241 of the most common claims made by the Left on all the most important political, social, and cultural issues of our day.
If they're getting this kind of food at Club Gitmo, I'm declaring a jihad today. I'll send my address to the Feds to come pick me up as soon as I verify that they're feeding this stuff at Gitmo.
Once upon a time , I raised a nice conservative child, he had a wonderful vacation at Sanibel Island, Florida, in his junior year at high school, while there, he preferred to sit in the condo and watch and cheer Ollie North in the Iran-Contra hearings. Two years later he went to Indiana University and ended up a liberal Marxist. Even though we all love him, he has been tainted for the rest of his life. There are those people who are fooling themselves and believe this is not true, I feel sorry for them. This is where we are screwed.

See post #50...
I'd figure people would give gifts more based on personal habits and hobbies than politics.....
Though a wacko leftie professor of mine could use the book. It would make his blood boil.
see post #44--if you freepmail his address to me, I'll send him one this week.
Unfortunately, GM Hummer is discontinuing the H1. :(

Its a sad thing, the commencement speaker was Birch Bayh. My husband and myself walked out of there because what he said was disgusting. My son has been taught to dislike and mistrust his country. Breaks my heart. My youngest is in the Navy. What an odd family reunion we have! Thanks for the book ideas, just try getting him to look at them. It is hard to argue with liberals, they just speak louder an tell you how wrong you are!
bttt
It's PURE SOLID GOLD! D'oh!!
Yeah! A case of .308 NATO goes well with an L1A1.
