- Best Seller (maybe?) - Notable Xristian Xrazie scold Dr. James Dobson launches his fiction career. Here's the description:
Fatherless is a relentlessly-paced, faith-based, dystopian thriller from Dr. James Dobson and Kurt Bruner set in the future but torn from today's headlines. Well-drawn characters in multiple plot lines are slowly drawn into a national conspiracy with thousands of lives in the balance.
[snip]
In the page-turning Fatherless, it's 2042, and a long-predicted tipping point has arrived: For the first time the elderly outnumber the vigorous young, creating an untenable economic and moral situation. How will a debt-crippled nation pay for the health care needs of a growing number of seniors living longer? As laws change allowing the elderly to end their lives, they become viewed as financial liabilities, as do the disabled. Jaundiced eyes turn toward any couple with more than two children, making the problem worse. Caught in an intensifying battle between competing cultural agendas is reporter Julia Davidson--a journalist seeking to revive a flagging career; influential young Congressman Kevin Tolbert, a Christian facing his own dilemmas; and a supporting cast of engaging characters who find themselves deep in an ominous conspiracy. In the dystopian tradition of 1984, Brave New World and The Hunger Games, Fatherless projects the headlines of today into the desperate choices of tomorrow.
I would have loved to have heard the pitch for this book. I bet that there wasn't a dry seat in the house. (Christian Newswire)

Oh, no, pp, Meese is alive and well and shilling for the Xtian Xrazies.
As for Dobson, he launches his fiction career, sort of. Since he has a co-author, this may be a case of him using his name more than his imagination.

S. E. Cupp is a bit cracked. Isn't Christie's popularity over 70%?

Perhaps I'm not understanding the synopsis (I can't understand how that is possible from such a thrilling description, but anyway-) Under the described circumstances, why would being a couple with more than two children earn you a "jaundiced eye?" Wouldn't producing more "vigorous young" be encouraged? Inquiring minds want to know.
