On Today’s Program
The nonviolence pledge
The left is begging, BEGGING for a tea partier to lash out in violence. They’ve been constantly warning people about it, but also constantly humiliated by the footage they are forced to show. It’s completely peaceful. Peaceful, polite - but not silent has always been at the heart of the tea party movement, and it must stay that way. First of all it’s clearly the right thing to do, second of all it’s a winning strategy. MLK knew this, and he had people who marched with him sign this pledge. Will you sign it now? Glenn reads it on radio today. ( Transcript, Insider Audio).

What kind of socialist is Barack Obama?
Jonah Goldberg is the man who can explain that question the best and he goes in-depth answering that very question in a very informative column. Jonah draws on his vast knowledge of history to analyze the presidents beliefs - because everyone knows he IS socialist, but what we don’t know is exactly how far he’ll go. Read the full article HERE.
Where does all the power go?
Friend of the program Dr. Keith Ablow writes exclusively in the Glenn Beck newsletter today about his theory called the Conservation of Power - a telling take on the consequences of each and every decision we make. Just like with matter, power does not just vanish into thin air after giving it up - instead it just changes hands. An interesting take that clearly shows the folly of this administrations foreign and even domestic policies. Read the exclusive piece HERE.

Hiyas. What kind of bird is that?
Mourning dove. They nest right outside my bedroom winder.
Pledge of Nonviolence
1. As you prepare to march meditate on the life and teachings of Jesus
2. Remember the nonviolent movement seeks justice and reconciliation - not victory.
3. Walk and talk in the manner of love; for God is love.
4. Pray daily to be used by God that all men and women might be free.
5. Sacrifice personal wishes that all might be free.
6. Observe with friend and foes the ordinary rules of courtesy.
7. Perform regular service for others and the world.
8. Refrain from violence of fist, tongue and heart.
9. Strive to be in good spiritual and bodily health.
10. Follow the directions of the movement leaders and of the captains on demonstrations.
The Five Principles of Nonviolence
1. Non-violent resistance is not a method for cowards. It does resist. The nonviolent resister is just as strongly opposed to the evil against which he protests, as is the person who uses violence. His method is passive or nonaggressive in the sense that he is not physically aggressive toward his opponent, but his mind and emotions are always active, constantly seeking to persuade the opponent that he is mistaken. This method is passive physically but strongly active spiritually; it is nonaggressive physically but dynamically aggressive spiritually.
2. Nonviolent resistance does not seek to defeat or humiliate the opponent, but to win his friendship and understanding. The nonviolent resister must often express his protest through noncooperation but he realizes that noncooperation is not the ends itself; it is merely means to awaken a sense of moral shame in the opponent.
3. The attack is directed against forces of evil rather than against persons who are caught in those forces. It is a struggle between justice and injustice, between the forces of light and the forces of darkness.
4. Nonviolent resistance avoids not only external physical violence, but also internal violence of spirit. At the center of non-violence stands the principle of love.
5. Nonviolence is based on the conviction that the universe is on the side of justice. It is the deep faith in the future that allows a nonviolent resister to accept suffering without retaliation. The nonviolent resister knows that in his struggle for justice, he has a cosmic companionship.

What a lovely shot, did you take it???
Yeah. The mourning doves are pretty tame and let me get pretty close.
Stories naming Glenn Beck, Rush, etc as seditious:
Anti-government speech:
I have only managed to get a few, and not any that close. Excellent! :)
John Adams & words against THomas Jefferson:
“Thomas Jefferson is a mean-spirited, low-lived fellow, the son of a half-breed Indian squaw, sired by a Virginia mulatto father...raised wholly on hoe-cake made of coarse-ground Southern corn, bacon and hominy, with an occasional change of fricasseed bullfrog.” They claimed Jefferson was not a Christian and a pro-Adams newspaper editorialized that if voters elected Jefferson, “murder, robbery, rape, adultery, and incest will be openly taught and practiced” and crime and distress would permeate the land.
Meanwhile supporters of Jefferson claimed Adams sought to marry his son to the daughter of Britain’s King George III to establish and American monarchy. They warned Jefferson wanted to start a war with France and said the President had a “hideous hermaphroditical character, which has neither the force and firmness of a man, nor the gentleness and sensibility of a woman.”
