Who cares what color the crowd is... more importantly is the idiocy and ignorance they spew. Our nation is filled with people who act as if their shit don't stink.. one party and ideology blames the other side as if their shit don't stink. The funny thing is it all turns into a rat race, but in the end, you look around and see everyone recognize you're surrounded by rats. That is something our population has yet to do and they all deserve the misery brought upon them as a result.
Our government is the potent, the omnipresent teacher. For good or for ill, it teaches the whole people by its example. Crime is contagious. If the government becomes a law-breaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy. - Louis Brandeis
Also... Glenn beck claims this was an arbitrary date and location he chose.
*IF*... Glenn beck is a historical scholar and a dedicated follower of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr... as he claims to be... then I have to ask... WHY didn't he KNOW that the most memorable speech delivered by Dr. King took place on this very location... on the same date?
Does he not know his history... or is he a liar... or just dumb?
None. He is a calculating entrepenuer that wants to capitalize on all of this free publicity for his own gain.

even i know and im not an american.
that's an example of why it always amuses me when Americans use the old "you are not American, what would you know", comment.
truth is, sometimes, a lot more than they do. how sad is that.
for Glenn Beck not to know the date and the significance, and then for the teabagging disciples still not able to see his real agenda, (which is purely just to promote himself), is just one reason why the Country is going down the shitter.
Beck is not benefiting from this rally. In fact, he's paid out alot of money to make it happen. As far as your last question, I never really could understand why this bothered people. Are you hiding something? Are you having phone sex and don't want the government to listen in? Drug deals over the phone? I just don't get it. Don't we also have the right to feel safe and be protected from thugs like Al Qaida that want to blow us up? Plain, Simple, Common Fucking Sense!
...
If you don't know... and you make it clear that you don't... Glenn Beck will make a killing on this scheme. He will make millions when he expands his base audience who'll boost his ratings and buy his books.
and about the warrantless wiretaps.. apparently you DON'T KNOW WHAT CIVIL RIGHTS ARE. It does not matter what phone calls are being made, it is the fact that it goes against our Constitution. If the government wants to tap my phone... they can get a warrant in order to do so.
Also... i'm not a pussy and I'm not afraid of Al Qaeda like so many wusses that are willing to let the fear of them cause us to forfeit the very rights those pussies claim they hate. By allowing our rights to be violated would be exactly what al qaeda would want, right? So... YOU are doing the will of Al Qaeda!!!
Back around when 9/11 happened, a private phone call really didn't mean much to me if it meant it was going to get some terorists off the streets. Just saying. Any idea how many suspects have been caught due to wiretapping? But I guess that doesn't mean shit when somebody might be listening in on your dinner plans.
Back to topic. Does anyone have any updates or info on how the rally went yesterday?
apparently something that is beyond man happened. whatever that means :?
“Something that is beyond man is happening,” Mr. Beck said in opening the event as the crowd thronged near the memorial grounds. “America today begins to turn back to God.”
it'll take more than that to have the world love you..
so anyways, i saw your thread on area51 the other day :shock:
did you know, there are Crypto-Muslim sleeper agents in every part of the government, who are enlisting the aliens from Area 51, so they can euthanize your gramma with a pillow!

see, this is the difference between you and i. you are, or at least were, willing to trade your freedom and liberty for security. i never have believed in doing that and i never ever will. i don't care how many "terrorists" it got off the streets. fact is it was illegal and nobody who cares about their country would have supported these actions.
the funny thing to me is that beck, palin, the teabaggers, all invoke the founding fathers when they rally, protest, or have normal conversation. yet they fail the see the irony when they support the warrentless wiretapping. they forget that ben franklin, perhaps the greatest of the founding fathers once said "those who are willing to trade liberty for security deserve neither"...

well for one, the democrats have the white house and both houses of congress, and they are gasp....talking about building a mosque near ground zero...
Yes, and for attempting to provide healthcare more widely...
And I KNOW for a fact, Jesus wouldn't dig that.
God wasn't no socialist!
the ironic thing is that jesus would dig that, its just that many of the people who allegedly follow him don't dig it...
Jesus is appalled by all this. Bottom line is the almighty dollar. It is not that those in power care about the unfortunate. That they want to help the sick and poor, someone just wants to make a buck off them, and that someone changes with who's in power and who's pushing what. They are all the same, it is all about power and money. Not love, not ethics, or empathy, not about us as a people and what we need or want. For anyone to say we haven't lost our country, if we ever really had it at all, has blinders on.

so how is beck and co. going to take the country back? he as you said just made a huge money grab yesterday with all of the books he is going to sell and the ratings he will create for his radio and tv show. he and palin are making money off of the people that have no idea why they are even angry. he is misinforming them. for him to profit off of the ignorance of these people to me is just as bad as insurance compainies making windfall profits while denying coverage...

Granted that is my point, 'wolf in sheeps clothing' all of them.
They believe in what they preach but it is a living they are making and a mighty pretty one too.
Not sure they are quite as bad as the insurance companies though, they are heartless institutions that take our money and do their very best not to pay out benefits, all the while making you feel secure, using your money to make more for themselves, and attain more power.
Take the country back? I don't know if that's possible anymore, the power that runs our country is so great but maybe we can stop the progress of the power.
We can fight to keep our rights stated in the constitution, fight big government, big sneaky government that tries to take our power away as a people. Give the power back to the states, our local governments so we truly can have a voice, not just a one day rally. We can try to make our government accountable by letting them know we are on to them.
I say this no matter which party is in office because the parties are a sham, the real power has no party, just an agenda for the rich. History has proved this to be the case why should we have thought it would be any different in the birth of America.
This is what disappointed Jesus then and disappoints him now, that humans are ruled by the need for power and money not love. Ruled by their own greed over the love of their fellow man.

OK, so this whole post sounds like it was taken right straight from Becks radio show. Si I guess you DO agree with Beck after all and the real problem for most of you is the fact that he makes alot of money. hmmm, typical.

you are not talking to me are you? because the only time i ever quote anything near what beck would say is when i am pointing out his stupidity, hypocracy, or both...
by the way, did he cry yesterday??

I have no idea what Beck speaks of ( I called him a wolf in sheeps clothing ie don't trust him) because I don't give him the time of day, if he agrees with me so be it. I come by my own opinions from experience and insight, from conclusions made from how I look at our world.
I don't dislike people who earn money in an honest way, hell, we are business owners, we have had money and have not had money. Money doesn't matter in the big scheme of things. Love is all that matters, money corrupts the heart in way too many cases, it is very easy to be changed by money.
I am no way typical, I'm quite unusual really but by calling someone typical you neatly place them in a box and label or judge, you jump to conclusions when perhaps you should give your fellow man(or woman in my case) the benefit of the doubt and listen to what they are saying.
I don't know what that means. Maybe I am not intelligent enough, but that statement simply isn't clear to me. Take it back from whom? The government? Where was Beck from 2001-2009? What are his credentials?
The bottom line is this: Beck is an entertainer making millions off of the stupidity of the American public. People cannot think for themselves anymore, so we look to things like religion and entertainers. It makes no sense.
People are mad at Obama for not doing enough in his first 20 months in office. They are mad because he hasn't waved his magic wand and made everything better. On the other hand, they also blame him for ruining the country in his first 20 months. What the hell is going on?
In case you missed it, there is a trend in what I am saying and it is this: nobody can think, say, or do for themselves. It is very sad.
I have to go now, I have the finale of "America's Got Talent" on my TiVO. And then I am going to the mall. There is a sale at Nordstrom.

Any idea how many suspects have been caught due to wiretapping? But I guess that doesn't mean shit when somebody might be listening in on your dinner plans.
...
So... are you admitting that you are doing Al Qaeda's will?
If terrorists hate us... and hate us because of our freedoms... and one of those freedoms is our rights from the government seizing our privacy without a warrant of probable cause... as guaranteed us in the Fourth Amendment of our Bill of Rights... and you support the degradation of our rights... as guaranteed us by our Bill of Rights... which is what Al Qaeda wants... because they hate our freedoms...
Then, you are helping Al Qaeda.
...
If you claim to be a Patriot... You need to turn yourself in to Homeland security for being a terrorist enabler.

People fight non stop for the right to bear arms but give away their privacy because they're scare? Isn't privacy more valuable than arms? The autocratic governments give people arms but the first thing to go is their privacy.

It's not about being scared, it's about doing whatever we have to do to catch the bad guys. I'm not saying I totaly suport wiretapping, I just don't give a shit either way. If they tap my phone....so be it. Doesn't really bother me if it's for a good cause.
