Beck gave an entertaining speech the other night at CPAC. Some very emotional parts that touched the hearts of many Americans.
If your a regular listener to him on radio you understand how he attacks both parties as the same.
This is why as much as you love him, hang on every word he may be the greatest asset to the Obama's agenda.(Ironic)
If we use a utopian view (unrealistic) of party to fracture ourselves we are doomed.
There is no perfect party the American people have spoke out and over the past year the Republicans are listening and the ones who haven't or have such fractured past in support of big government policies like a McCain they must be defeated.
But on the flip side how come Beck didnt speak in support of the ones who have always been resolute and are the future leaders of the conservative movement?(Rubio, Demint, Bachmann,Pence)
I am sorry Glenn while I am a free market capitalist and think every American should have the right to make as much as someone is willing to pay you seem to be supporting a strategy that will lead to a loss of freedom and opportunity for me and my family which I cannot afford.
I dont have millions saved up to weather a storm that will come about if Obama's policies survive based on splitting the Republican vote.
I will follow the principles of our founding and free market principles to the end what I will not do is follow a talk show host off the cliff whatever his motives; good or bad.
If you are for a third party just come out and say it instead of trying to steer your audience.
Isn't that your motto" speak without fear speak the truth". Are you a third party supporter or not?
I am sorry folks I know many of you on this site are very sensitive to any criticism of Beck but its not about him its about the future existence of our way of life and the strategy for defeating Obama's policies.
When you begin worshipping the messenger and not the message we become vulnerable for a fall and in this case that involve losing our way of life.
Beck chose to use his hour speech to attack Republicans collectively many are the same ones who are listening to the American people.
If we dont win this battle in November and refuse to unify all republicans based on conservative values we will never again have the opportunity for the long fight of reversing this progressive assault on our Constitution he emphasizes on a daily basis.
This country is not about one man or personality as is currently the case of the left it is based on the principles of our founding period.
We cant afford to split apart in order to massage someone's ego we need to unite to fight the enemies of liberty; the current power base of the democrat party this November.
We cant afford to lose this political battle keep your eye on your principles and goals ; less on the messanger especially ones who are drawn to the letter "I".
bump/lol/sigh. . .
“And for so many reasons we are brain same & best buds lol”
Yes we are. We may not have all the answers, but we can sure identify the enemy!
GMTA, really being he’s been alientating alot of his fan base, which collectively for us is NG
I am not convinced the GOP is turning right. Peoples voting patterns are turning right and that tends to mean more decent conservatives get elected. The party is backing who in Florida? Crist!
Scozzafava had the backing of the National Republican Committee until she endorsed a Democrat.
People are waking up, I am unconvinced the GOP is!
On top of that he used common sense solutions and sensible strategies to defeat the left which led us to prosper.(Not 3RD party which he knew would lead to defeat)
And please dont compare President Reagan to Beck you kind of lose all credibility from the get go.
Speaking of , I have gotten important positive feed back on Rev. Manning’s video -g-
The good old boys network will take some time to replace, that’s why the new youngblood is a good thing
Glenn admonished people for saying SB or Sarah should be president. He said “Really, really? People let them prove themselves before you jump & draft them for 2012. But his fans say he should be President after his speech at CPAC. What am I missing?
The people decide the candidates not politicans or the GOP. The more conservatives we put in the more it will move.
Go out and help the conservative campaigns.
Rubio is double digits up on Crist because the voters are moving right thats how our system is supposed to work.
Also the idea that the GOP is supporting Crist is false they are not endoresing anyone and yes they are a disaster in many cases but they dont represent the entire party.
Beck treads dangerous water, I think; and too casually invites other to do same, by his constant damning of Repub Party. Per 'third Party; it is not just what he implies; but what he does not say; whereby you feel a 'void' opening and the unspoken invite hanging over it./sigh. . . Wondering if he did not in fact, vote for 'Ron Paul' at C-Pak convention.
That said; while I admire a great deal of what Beck does; don't believe in making 'gurus' - as per the Left and 'The ONE' - either. No message is perfect. 'Dangerous' another matter; and any ideas that imply viable 'third Party' options; are dangerous.
This is what the Tea Party revolution is all about, in it's essence. We are tired of these constant Hobson’s choices thrust upon us election after election, which are almost always made by activists and the politicians themselves, who are recipients of systemic, endemic corruption they themselves have brought about, and aided and abetted by a willing and compliant media that has long since ceased be objective or critical in any sense of the word. These "choices" invariably lean in one direction, and one direction only, and do not reflect well or accurately on the electorate at large.
To put it bluntly, we are rapidly approaching the breaking point. Excusing today's politics, which are really yesterday's politics, as something to be done and accepted because that's the way it's always been done, and besides, your betters have already decided for you, so GET WITH THE PROGRAM, is not what 21st century politics should be in America.
We're not doing it that way any more. That's why there's a war in that threatens - these numbskulls refuse to listen to us!
Extraordinary times require extraordinary measures. You apparently cannot see the lurch of history coming down the pike at the establishment. So be it. But when it hits, you cannot say you were not warned, that you were unaware, or that it really means nothing.
This is history unfolding, as few have ever witnessed it. Given that, it appears you'll either do the right thing and help make history, or...just plain be history.
CA....
Like Romney, I will not vote for him as president. He has proved through Romneycare and other bills that he is no Republican.
Lets just say I haven’t given my donation to the RNC.
I am active in my local Tea Party.
I have given to Sarah Palin and Peter Schiff.
Look at my S/N. I am a big fan of Glenn Beck. He’s even starting to lose me a bit. Ever since he’s been publicly ripping into the birthers, his shows seem a bit off. I’ll defend him when I think I get what he’s trying to say, but right now, I am not getting some things. Maybe I need a Glenn Beck hiatus. Maybe he needs to resort his message. Either way.......
I should talk to Jim Robinson about changing my s/n to JustPiper07.
Not sure what your point is. My point is that a third party is essentially handing this country over to the leftists.
Its the job of the people to choose the most conservative candidates in our party to represent the will of the people and to force out those who refuse to listen.
Its seems you are passionate about this cause and would hope that you are working to make sure that happens within the party by helping with the various campaigns.
I am in agreement that many in the GOP establishment needs to go.
40 % of Americans consider themselves conservatives in a two party system why the hell should we give up our party and wave the white flag to these RINOS they are the ones that need to go.
We are the ones on the rise the RINOS will be on the run if we stand behind the premise of taking our party back with the help of established conservatives like Demint, Bachmann and Pence.
This is the party of Reagan , Lincoln and Goldwater I say lets draw lines and draw swords before throwing our arms up in the air claiming its to hard to change our party lets start a new movement which will lead to defeat in the end.
The ball is in Americans court its the bottom of the ninth we need to commit to help campaign and work this election cycle like we never have before.
We will lose some battles but we must make sure we win this war and take back our party and then our nation.
Learn some English composition first. Then come back and bash Beck all you want.
Beck is the guy standing on your sidewalk, screaming at you that your house is on fire. Sorry if you want to roll over and catch some more shuteye.
btt
You sound a lot like Obama and the left should I shut up and sit down.
I am sorry I dont have a forty man team working on my writings but I can tell you one thing if you read my posts you will know that I love this country and it has nothing to do with a missed letter here and there.
You my friend are what we call a drone who take personally legitimate criticism against a talk show host who has no clue what he is doing and is trying to lead the good people of nation off the cliff.
I choose when to comment on issues I am passionate about and choose not wait for approval from morons like yourself.
You are no different then a leftist; refuse to debate on the issue and turn to insults.
Do you know what thats a sign of?
A PEA BRAIN
