Glenn Beck and Palin are having a large rally in DC on August 28th at the Lincoln Memorial.
Many in DC (mostly Democrats) are up in arms over this as it’s the anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King’s I Have a Dream speech.
I see no difference between the two controversies ... but it is the Dems who are being hypocritical.
This is just some info you may not have seen.
(by the way the date of the rally was not purposely planned, as the date of the mosque surely was)
Glenn Beck Talks To Martin Luther King Jr's Niece & Beck's Friend, Dr Alveda King (who was there) : Let's Set The Record Straight On The Civil Rights Movement
Dr King here on Glenn Beck as well. Excerpt from that transcript:
NUGENT: I think the far-left media represents the dogs attacking the protestors.
DR ALVEDA KING: Hey, the far-left media is going to have to start telling the truth.
BECK: The media did the same thing, though, in the 1990s. KING: They did for a very long time. And they would not report the truth. Finally, you have young members of the media who bravely begin to say they’re telling the truth. We need to show this. And that’s what happened.
BECK: All three of my guests, I can’t thank you enough. God bless you.
The Left will also turn on anyone appearing on Glenn Beck and besmirch.
From Cordoba Initiative--Cordoba Initiative can make a historic gesture -finance and build an open to all religions multi-confessional center... create a church, a synagogue, Hindu and Buddhist temples, Christians, space and for even unbelievers, within said structure, all equal in size and importance, in order to honor the victims, not the Muslim terrorists, that died on 9/11. Only then do they show “mutual recognition and respect.”
This is Beck's Rally, Palin is just one of the Invited speakers. It is not her show. King's history of that famous speech (which many today have never heard of..so could care less, or did not know a day was set aside) will outlive anything Beck says on this day.
"Not So Important Now" Sharpton and the NAACP, the Urban League and Martin Luther King III, HOPE founder and community activist are planning a "Reclaim the Dream" march the same day as Beck's rally in another location.
Despite the political finger pointing, money will be raised for the children of our U.S. military personnel (which come in all colors, all faiths) killed in action. That's a wonderful event coupled with another historical event.
OPEN ON ONE DAY AUG. 28 TO ALL FAITHS, ALL BELIEFS, ALL AMERICANS.
[Note: King III founded Operation HOPE is America's leading nonprofit social investment banking and financial literacy empowerment organization]
[Dr Alveda King: "During the years of the Civil Rights Movement, led by her Uncle, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Alveda's family home was bombed in Birmingham, Alabama in the heat of the struggle. "Daddy's house was bombed, then in Louisville, Kentucky his church office was bombed. I was also jailed during the open housing movement," she recalls. Alveda has continued her long-term work as a civil rights activist, speaking out on issues that face society today. "I believe that School Choice is a pressing civil rights issue. Perhaps the most compelling issue of all is the life of the unborn," Alveda says. "Faith in God, and the commitment to fulfill His will for our lives -- not faith in government bureaucracy - is the key to positive action. Have faith in God!" This is the message that Alveda carries to the world.]
