I pulled some great Washington quotes for the Beck thread.

It was amazing. The two historians were great. Apparently George was a big TARGET, but never got shot, bullet holes in hat and clothes but not in him! I’ve got to read the book.

I fell a little in love with George Washington when years ago I was helping one of my children with a report on the life of the Frenchman-Lafayette. George was an immense figure on every level. We have much to be proud of - I sure hope Glenn’s program is put on Utube.

Geronimo was the same way, but there’s no written history, just word of mouth.

He was a good military leader, but he was also a fascinating inventor.

One of the great crimes of the current era is the lack of schools educating children about George Washington. In every way, he is incredibly inspirational and a sincere role model.

The socialists need to eradicate our memory of him and they do so in the schools. This is flat criminal.

The 'Beck Effect' strikes again...'The Real George Washington' was ranked at #404 on the Amazon best-seller list when Glenn's show began at 5 EST. Right now?

#2.

Wow.

Glenn as teacher is having the right effect on the country....he is telling the story of America that every kid should be learning in school...
