Glenn is no Breitbart—but we need some folks on our side.
He is very weird that way. He revealed info about an Oval Office meeting he had with George W. Bush in 2007 just this past June.
Perhaps Dick Armey, who was removed as head of FW around the time he describes. Armey is pro amnesty, and FW has shifted to being against it.
If you’ve used a groups charter to hijack it and have official control, you can remove someone from the offices. Dick Armey was part of the group because Freedomworks believed he believed in the same goals. Armey’s goal was instead have a group meant to whip up support for the GOP elite.
It’s a good lesson in watching who you give power to.
I drummed on about this for sometime. I always believed the GOP was behind the IRS going after Tea Party groups. They are despicable and will never receive a dime or support from my family. Get away from these two parties if you are a true conservative.
Freedom works vs Cornyn
Cornyn flip flopped on his position to defunding Obamacare. Freedom works is running adds against him to try and get a conservative. In July Cornyn hired ex-Freedomworks worker for his re-election. He is claiming she helped get Cruz elected, implying he is also conservative
Was just going to post this. Glad to see it’s already up.
When you hear of a Tea Party organization making a sudden WTF!? endorsement, you can suspect something like this may have happened.
Damned straight.
(libertarian being the small l variety, what could aldo be called the classical liberalism advocated by the Founders and Framers)
Correct, and that is why we see so much antagonism aimed at all of the anti-statists, whether they are Sarah Palin, Sen. Cruz, Sen. Paul, or even the big L libertarians like Ron Paul himself.
There are always a range of ideas among people who have similar ideas about one issue, in this case being against an ever increasing role for the government in society. To the leftists however they all must be ridiculed and rendered irrelevant. That's one reason you see so many attacks against the ideas of freedom loving conservatives and small l libertarians, and attempts to associate them with other political ideas held by some folks who also oppose an ever growing intrusive federal government.
There is no such thing as big l little l libertarianism, that is yet another lie created by social leftists as another approach to defeating conservatism, change the language.
Just ask Beck who embraced gay marriage and every poll that measures libertarianism, they all recognize that libertarianism is social liberalism.
There is a difference. The difference is that on one end of the spectrum you have the Libertarian Party. On the other you have Randian Objectivists.
Just like the statism spectrum is defined by Marxism and Communism on one end, Fascism on the other.
Looking one-dimensionally, either Liberal/Conservative or Libertarian/Statist is too simplistic. It has to be looked at two-dimensionally.
That is just a lie, a new lie to sell the left’s agenda.
There is no war between the libertarians and the party they created, the party represents libertarianism in an actual political party agenda.
The war is between the libertarians fighting to destroy conservatism and conservatives, to overcome the Christian roots of America.
When Glenn Beck says that he is embracing the atheist Penn Teller’s libertarianism, Beck doesn’t mean that he just suddenly discovered conservatism’s economic and limited government goals.
“”Glenn Beck And S.E. Cupp Agree That GOP Must Accept Gay Marriage, But How?””
“Beck closed by noting that he recently had a conversation with libertarian entertainer and outspoken atheist Penn Jillette. He was encouraged by their agreement on the essential governing principles which would bridge the religious divide between them on the issue of same-sex marriage rights.”
“The GOP is getting there. That thought leaders like Cupp and Beck are warming to the notion of a more libertarian approach to the vexing social issues of the day is encouraging. There is plenty of work to be done, but the Republican party’s opinion leaders are on the right track.”
Amen...agree with your thoughts. Glenn dreams of being the next Walt Disney, but suffers from lack of focus. He has the talent and the drive if could just channel it.
