What Others are Saying about Doug (at least to him) . . .

"Doug Giles and ClashRadio.com are doing a great job. Keep at it Doug!"
- Colonel Oliver North

"Doug Giles speaks the truth . . . he's a societal watchdog . . . a funny bastard"
- Ted Nugent, Rock Star.

"The Wild Man attitude is alive and well with Doug Giles and ClashRadio.com."
- Charlie Daniels, Country Music Legend 

"Doug Giles' refreshing voice cuts through the moral fuzziness of our culture with great clarity and trenchant insight. Doug's candor, boldness, and verve in tackling controversial issues make his writings essential reading. His contagious humor provides a delicious icing on the cake." 
- David Limbaugh Columnist & Author, Persecution 

"Doug Giles is an A-team writer who combats the Left with a fresh and ferocious style.  Doug's new book ‘Political Twerps, Cultural Jerks and Church Quirks' and his weekly ‘ClashPoint' columns on Townhall.com are must reads." 
- Michelle Malkin, Columnist & Author, Invasion 

"Doug Giles is the secular fundamentalist's nightmare. He has faith, hope and even a little charity. He lambastes the enemies of the Lord and of commonsense. And he does it with wit as well as logic. Doug serves two great causes: religious truth and what Arnold Bennett once called "the great cause of cheering us all up." 
 -John O'Sullivan Editor at Large, The National Interest & Columnist 

"In his unique no-compromise style, Doug Giles stands up to the forces tearing our great nation apart, refusing to back down against the media, political, and cultural elites. Doug takes on the liberal orthodoxy and takes no prisoners."
 -Jonathan Garthwaite Editor, Townhall.com 

"Giles' style is deliberately provocative and in-your-face, but it's refreshing. Not many reverends can dish out it out as well as anybody. Giles is one of them, and even better, he's one of us."
- David Aikman, Author, A Man of Faith: The Spiritual Journey of George W. Bush

"Doug Giles brings a sharp, humorous, bold and captivating style to ministry."
- Dr. R. C. Sproul, Distinquished Theologian, Best Selling Author

"Giles confronts liberals and their lunacy in the same way I hunt Africa 's most dangerous game; namely, without fear and with great joy!"
- Mark Sullivan, Professional Hunter
