#1 I am very proud of Glenn Beck!
Glenn is an honest real American patriot.

#3 Sorry, it looks like that was only the first 10 minutes or so. Here's a link to the whole thing.

#5 It was a pleasure to watch Glen Beck COMPLETELY eviscerate the political establishment, both repubs and dems.

#6 Glenn Beck for King! ;-)

He did a great job. He even handled interruptions without breaking stride. Noobama can only be jealous if he even watched five minutes of it.

I hope it gives the politicians something to think about. I'm afraid that the only thing it will give them to think about is how to appear to comply to minimum expectations but in reality just bury their agenda deeper to be dug up later.

Hence I feel we need to send the signal by throwing the bums out without their ill-deserved lifetime benefits. Unless they are the kind to own and drive an F-150, of course. :-)

#7 I'm convinced Glenn can do a better job than any one in the ruling administration or the other 535 clowns holding office...

#8 Tapscott gives Beck props for the speech and suggests that while he's unlikely to be elected to high office, he undoubtably will play a key role in setting the narrative during the 1010 and 12 campaign seasons and elections.

And that's what we need. People are angry, worried and scared. What Beck did so well was to focus on a few key issues we can agree on, articulate basic principles and show that those principles have been the basis for America's success in the past.

By also naming the enemy of those principles he gives focus to the anger and identifies what needs to go.

I'm not sure I see officeholder qualities in him. I sure do see *leadership* qualities to rally the electorate and aim its energy at the root issues we need to address urgently.

#9 I'm convinced Glenn can do a better job of feeding red meat to CPAC than Bambi. (It helps that I agree with most of what he says.) But I think we're a long way from any candidate who says those things getting elected. Even from Utah. We're going to have to hit an even lower bottom.

#10 Compare the GLENNER wid DAILY TIMES.PK > PROFESSOR: THE FTURE OF MARXISM IS VERY BRIGHT. Argues that the LIMITED OF CAPITALISM have nearly been reached, + that MUSLIM-MAJORITY NATIONS HAVE HISTORICALLY BEEN VERY RECEPTABLE/HOSPITABLE TO [Marxist] COMMUNISM.

#11 IOW, ARTIC > an unknown number of MUSLIM MODERATES + XTREMISTS may also be PRO-COMMIE = CLOSET COMMIES, whose true role, actions, and magnitude of collusion, etc. in the 9-11 terror event agz America, + by extens the on-going ISLAMIST UNIVERSAL JIHAD [NOT merely Local, Regional, or Multi-region] is NOT FULLY CLEAR, LIKELY BY DESIGN???
