Glenn Beck issued a response Saturday to the Internal Revenue Service’s shocking admission that it has unfairly targeted conservative groups, pointing out that he and his news organization have been reporting on the issue for over a year. “In February 2012, TheBlaze first reported what the IRS now admits to – that they unfairly targeted conservative groups including the 9/12 project. It is nice to see everyone else playing catch-up and finally asking the same questions that TheBlaze started raising over a year ago,” Beck’s statement read. As early as February 14, 2012, TheBlaze’s Mike Opelka published a story titled:...

Eighteen children filed into a small church one evening last week to learn about the principles of American liberty, including lessons on the failures of communism, the Constitution's biblical roots and gold's superiority to government currency. During the five-day Vacation Liberty School, talks, skits and activities mixed conservative values and early American history, including stories about how colonists' prayers once helped turn back a threatening French fleet and the principle of equal opportunity, but not necessarily equal results. It marked the latest of a growing number of Vacation Liberty Schools, volunteer-run programs for children mostly ages 10-15 that resemble a...

Glenn Beck Vault post for Friday, July 23, 2010 What: The Glenn Beck Vault (GBV) was established in 2010 as the unofficial viewer research arm of the Glenn Beck Program seen on Fox News Channel weekdays at 5pm EST. Armed with the internet and a belief in his country, the GBV aims to help viewers deepen their knowledge of the subjects discussed on the show by providing sources and other materials for review. Full Explanation Here TLDR: I research stuff Glenn says each day and then post. It's fun and I generally end up learning something. Maybe others will too.

The Pittsburgh 9.12 Project, a grass-roots conservative group, was forced to seek a new home after complaints about a North Hills church's decision to allow them to use their meeting room. The group, an affiliate of the movement promoted by Fox commentator Glenn Beck, had staged a series of gatherings in St. John Lutheran Church of Highland. The church's meeting room was also to have been the site of a similar conservative group, the Pittsburgh Tea Party movement, last weekend, but that session was canceled due to weather . . . The decision came after a blog post on the...

Tea Party activists are trying to take over the Republican Party from the ground up, according to the New York Times.There are many pieces to the Tea Party puzzle, described as a “diverse, rambunctious and Internet-connected network of groups”. This includes Tea Party Nation which describes itself as a “user-driven group of like-minded people who desire our God-given Individual Freedoms which were written out by the Founding Fathers, [who] believe in Limited Government, Free Speech, the 2nd Amendment, our Military, Secure Borders and our Country.” Our Country Deserves Better is a political action committee that “is leading the fight to...

In The Taming of the American Crowd: From Stamp Riots to Shopping Sprees, I argue that unlike the kind of crowds that have surged across the pages of American history and unlike crowds in certain other parts of the world, today's American crowds seldom even figure in the news. We have crowds of shoppers, spectators, and travelers, but these are ill-prepared to act as one. Then, in April 2009, when Taming was well along in Monthly Review Press's publication process, some American crowds did begin to make the news. On April 15, thousands of angry Americans attended Tax Day "tea...

There was a link to the video of Lloyd Marcus singing at our 9/12 Dinner in Washington, DC with the Freeper kickline. I never bookmarked it and I need it! Thanks so much. This will come down when I get the answer. Again, thank you.

Organizers of the conservative Tea Party movement are forging plans to translate the anger that fueled nationwide anti-tax rallies and town hall protests into an electoral force that can boot incumbents in next year's midterm elections. Their targets range from big names like Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., and Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., to county assessors. The East Bay Freedom Fighters, a Tea Party group based in the Pleasanton area, is already vetting 43 Bay Area candidates, many of them first time office-seekers. Other branches in California are gathering signatures for a ballot initiative that would restrict the political...

Glenn Beck, the controversial Fox News television host, is planning on becoming more active in the populist conservative movement he spawned, according to sources familiar with his thinking. At a rally Saturday at a massive retirement community in central Florida, Beck is planning to unveil what he has billed as a “big plan” for 2010, which is expected to involve the 9.12 Project, the group he started earlier this year and named for the day after the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, when he says the nation was unified. “Coming this January, my whole approach changes on this program,” he...

How many Americans would you estimate are involved in one group or another in some way, shape or form to take our country back (i.e. FR, 912 groups, tea party goers, members of groups like ResistNet, etc.)

This is it. This is our last best chance to stop socialized medicine from taking over our healthcare system. The last of the buses and cars have left for DC, and the remainder flies out in the morning. We desperately need for those who are staying behind to do FOUR things: 1. Visit your Congressperson's local office TOMORROW - THURSDAY, November 5th. There are rallies at the offices of Blue Dog Democrats and Pro-Life Democrats all over the nation tomorrow at noon. Those two small groups of Democrats are pivotal to stopping the Obama/Pelosi healthcare bill HR 3962. (Contact info...

Hoffman's supporters stage big rallyDouglas L. Hoffman's first congressional campaign stop in Watertown had more campaign staff — three — than attendees. Three months later, the Conservative Party candidate in the 23rd Congressional District race was a bigger draw here than the vice president of the United States. Mr. Hoffman's raucous rally Monday at the Jefferson County Agricultural Society Exhibition Hall drew more than 300 and featured speeches by former U.S. Sen. Fred Thompson and a soundtrack by country music star John Rich. Mr. Thompson, revered in conservative circles, wasted no time reminding the crowd of what was at stake...

Has anyone heard anything about a 912DC march part two? Loads of people I know would go if there was another since they couldnt go this time. I also had a great grassroots idea that I would have no idea how to start... sort of a "Mansion March" where thousands of people being represented by Pelosi, Ried, and Frank march in their neighborhood and surround their home... not sure the legality of it, but to get the media there and letting the world see how these fat pigs live would be a big plus... just dont put me at Barney...

James David Manning wants to know why your hero Glenn Beck did not speak at the 9/12 March on Washington Tea Party.

From Naval Aviator, Commander Jerry Wilson We lived in California during the winters of 2007 and 2008. We became addicted to Fox News and watched O’Reilly and Hannity and Colmes every night. When we got back home, we upgraded our cable to get Fox. I watched the Presidential campaign very closely. Initially, because I thought the Democrats would nominate Hillary Clinton and then in astonishment when they chose an even more hard-left candidate. All of last year I told everyone I could that Obama was not a Democrat, he is a Marxist. He is far to the left of any...
