Two million of us!
Just saw Glenn Beck cry on TV. It felt like he was about to say “go to your window, stick out your head and shout ‘i’m mad as hell and i’m not gonna take this ANYMORE!’”.
From the article:
And Beck's relationship with the official organs of the Republican Party is, to the say the least, strained. He doesn't care for the national party, and they keep him at arm's length.
And, of course, Beck claims to be non-partisan. Conservative, yes, but disdainful of the GOP, with no vested interest in seeing Republicans return to power, either.
...but maybe Beck will try something more subtle.
I have been sounding this klaxon on these threads for some time now, always provoking a visceral reaction among Beck fans of whom I count myself one. The problem with Glenn Beck is that he does not seek to reform the Republican Party, he seeks to marginalize it. If he succeeds in moving the electorate only a couple of centimeters in a direction away from the Republican Party, he will ensure victory for the Democrats. If Obama prevails again, there really might not be any coming back for America.
Beck is acting out of a common but fatal misconception of the role of the political party in American political history. He will accomplish nothing if he tries something "more subtle" than the opposite of what he desires. His efforts and our efforts should be bent toward reforming the Republican Party to make it the political apparatus of the conservative movement. We do not need a Libertarian party competing with the Republican Party. But we do need a 50 state organization capable of raising hundreds of millions of dollars and capable of imposing discipline on a selected members. Glenn Beck will produce none of that he will instead, with the brightest of intentions, pipe us down a path to inevitable electoral destruction.
Thank you Lord for Glen Beck. Thank you that your hand, blessing, favor and your protection is him. Thank for your angels that you have assigned to protect him while he fight to save this republic from its enemies, foreign and domestic. In Jesus name, I pray, amen.
Glenn hasn’t let me down yet!
Beck's 9/12 project brought tens of thousands of his ideological compatriots to rallies in D.C., and thousands more at rallies across the country. The event, he insisted, was "non-political" -- about sending a message to leaders that the feeling of American solidarity the day after 9/11/01 was worth fighting for. But Beck, at the time, also announced a follow-on project, "2010: In Or Out," asking people to determine whether their elected representatives support a five-part pledge. That was the first step, he implied, of several to come.
I hope it is a New March On Washington and as Sucessful as the first one was I hope a Leader materializes who will be a Player in the process.
There are a Lot of people who fear they are witnessing the demise of our Country that was evidenced by the Washington turn out ,but Millions of people marching and calling talk shows vents some anger, it really accomplishes nothing if you dont have someone in the process who can carry the ideas to fruition.
It May be to late anyway if Health care reform the Marxists are formulating passes and they parlay that into getting Cap and trade passed also we are screwed ,the only thing you will be marching for is to mete out retribution to the traitors who passed it and the perpetrators wont care anyway they will have won the war.
I am Praying that when the final Monster of a Health reform Bill shows it face the American People Rise up like they did when the Immigration reform came up. That will only happen if ALL the Conservatie Talkers on TV and Radio step out of their non cheerleading mode and Implore the people to act ,it may roil some the wrong way but lets face it some times you have to LEAD people not just act as a Venting Chamber and let Millions go in a million different directions

Beck has very good relations with and a lot in common with Sarah Palin. Could it be possible that the tidal wave of sales of Going Rogue is going to be used to jump start Palin’s recently announced new political organization, and join it with Beck and his grassroots followers, and the Tea Party organization. If so, we could very well be witnessing history in the making here. Latest polls show that twice as many people self identify as conservative as liberal, yet the gop is languishing, because of its insistance that democrat lite is the way to go. A new, revitalized truly conservative movement may be just what the doctor ordered.
Hang onto your seat, this could get really bumpy over the next couple of years.
Wow, some of you guys still believe in elections?
