Daisy Cutter Rick Rutledge

"Daisy Cutter has mellowed a bit, though I am not the 'Bush White House Communications Director' as he suggests" - Hugh Hewitt, Nationally-Syndicated Talk Radio Host Long before the Daisy Cutter bomb was deployed against jihadis in Afghanistan, the powerful weapon was used for its original purpose: clearing landing zones for helicopters in Vietnam. This book is a curated collection of timely and relevant thoughts from the Daisy Cutter blog. The "landing zones" being cleared here are of the ideological sort. Daisy Cutter was eventually linked/cited by the likes of Glenn Reynolds at Instapundit, Slate, CBS News, Hugh Hewitt, and the New York Times, among others. These writings will challenge your thinking about the foundational principles that undergird the United States-because understanding, defending, and promoting them is vital to keep America as that "shining city" among nations. You will see that these principles are expounded with the spirit of a happy warrior in these pages. Twenty-five percent of the proceeds from this book go to the Semper Fi Fund, a worthy charity that provides urgently-needed resources and support to post-9/11 combat-wounded and critically ill members of the U. S. armed forces and their families. "Rick Rutledge is a good man who loves his family, his country, and God.
