Beck's Aug 24th Event in Jerusalem: Will any GOP candidates attend? should they?
one man's opinion...

Posted on 05/20/2011 8:58:22 AM PDT by ken5050

Glen Beck announced today that his "Restoring Courage" event will be held in Israel, August 24th, at the southern wall of the Temple Mount. The event, which was first announced a few days ago, is now far more significant given Obama's speech yesterday, in which he called for Israel to return to its pre 1967 borders. This event is going to be huge, no doubt about it. And I'm wondering who will be the first GOP candidate to annonce that he, or she, will attend.

We are blessed and lucky to have you here to save FreeRepublic then.

LOL. You seem to be sane and mostly on point. Don't volunteer to be part of this group. They may be fellow travelers and value the same things you do, but their tactics and sloppiness are at best problematic.

You should be looking out for them rather than me. I just was posting in this thread and the crazies flew in.. Nana said something I found a bit off the wall, and I checked her history and it is a problem. These other silly people volunteered to become fellow travelers. Each has given me some hope and Nana took it back away. The rest, the jury is still out. Keep it up, I have no beef with you.

Change your ways, and you do belong here. Its that simple. The investment was not in Romney but you, with the hopes we might get some real posters rather than pains in the tail.

Thank you. We're all refreshed and challenged by your unique point of view. It is a wonder that FR has managed to operate at all without your sage guidance.

Still doesn't change the trend of your bleats, only now trying to recant?.

Stop bashing mitt you say.

Stop challenging his credentials you say

Stop examining his character you say

And you (dalight) are the only arbiter of truth today.

In my years of posting on the RF, I doubt I have seen a more sanctimonious batch of posts that those posted by dalight who has consistently lectured others for bigotry while employing total bigotry in doing so.

I have been mostly ignoring crap on this thread, and somehow this got cleared with clearing the old pings.

Grey, you are also a credible poster, you are welcome to your opinions and I don't care what names you call me.. mostly you are sane, present your arguments based on fact and frankly, your history is full of interesting and worthwhile posts. To some point, I have taken a hard core Jewish approach to get these folks to see that viewpoint matters. We can do our thing here, have a strident and powerful viewpoint and leave room for others around here. However, when viewpoint drifts into what we in the Jewish faith call Lashon Hara, the wicked tongue.. the sin is on you.

It normally is a fine line and posters around here delight in dancing around it. Some of your friends here don't have a clue where that line is.

As for any bigoted statements you might claim I have made, I am happy to consider your examples and defend them or accept that I was wrong. Just remember that, Judaism and Christianity share much, but some things we will never agree on. Defending these differences is not bigotry, it is just the fault lines. Bigotry is not the same as having certainty of one's faith. Bigotry is selling that Romney or Beck are evil people because of what Joseph Smith did.

It is important that people understand the nature of Mormonism, as facts, as interpreted against the holdings of mainstream Christianity, or Judaism, or what ever. I look at your posts and see someone doing that. Nana's posts do not. Your analysis of Mormon dogma and self aggrandizing and how this relates to folks like Beck, Huntsman and Romney is good stuff. Where it in this thread as related to what drives Beck, it would be of note, Unfortunately we just get to suck on asinine charges like "Rapist", and other crap spewed by these lesser lights.

1). We'll decide who belongs here - thanks.
2). And if you don't change your ways of mentioning "actionable" or "libelous" posts - it'll be you who won't be here.

Find any quote in my entire history of FR where I say this about Romney, and I will Opus out today. Otherwise, stick to the facts. I know its challenging.

Several times I have come across the idea that Beck thinks he is one of the 2 prophets who get killed in Jerusalem and lie around dead for 3 1/2 days Thoughts on this ???

I know Huckabee was recently quoted of saying to Beck: "He seems to fancy himself a prophet of sorts for his linking so many people and events together to describe a massive global conspiracy for pretty much everything."{
Source: Mike Huckabee Responds to Glenn Beck Attack that He is a “Progressive”; Says Beck “Seems to Fancy Himself a Prophet”

I haven't read any Beck self-references re: the 3.5 days' "prophet"...you'd have to send me some links

Fine, go to #162 where you say “Stop the mitt bashing”

92 you threaten and whine about legal actions against other freepers who examine romney’s mormon credentials.

Facts are YOU brought romney and mormonism into the discussion thread in #17. You sir are the one who then began trolling to get a freeper banned. And in post 17 you demanded ‘nana not only leave the thread, but by inference FR altogether.

Face it dalight - you singled out a freeper in an attempt to bully them into silence because they dare to expose romney’s mormonism and how it would influence any potential presidency. YOU sir mentioned mormonism FIRST. You sir mentioned romney FIRST. It is all in #17 and there is NO WAY nana was refering to either in post #12.

When you play those games, it is your behavior that is deficit. Troll is too nice of a word for it.

This post is irrational in my opinion.

You are improving slightly.

Yesterday you'd have said it was irrational IN FACT.

Read my reply to Greyfox. You are all wet. My point is, was and will be, this thread isn't about Romney. It isn't about anything now.. except for silliness, but that's par for the course once a thread has been hijacked.

(The making of false and defamatory statements in order to damage someone's reputation; slander.)

Then point these out so I don't make the same 'mistake'.

Mohammad, taught the connection of the Arabic people to Ishmael the son of Hagar.

He 'taught' a lot of stuff - so what?


But your interpretation is quite foolish and naive.

I will reply to your prior foolishness with the fact that people of the time, just didn't feel that way, you are interpreting events through your own value system, not theirs.

I am SO glad that YOU are not doing this in this thread!

...but I decided not to bring my candidate into this bizarre land of hatred and twisted logic.

And I'm quite sure he's VERY thankful that you have SAVED him from the likes of this 'pack of crazies'!
