Glenn Beck rally will be a measure of the tea party's strength

[jjdrury81]

could you give us an example of how Sarah Palin is polarizing and on the fringe?

She is polarizing because those of us that do not like her would rather have George W. Bush as president if it really came down to it.

In regards to this rally…

Beck has no shame. I used to follow him closely. The idea being ‘know your enemy’. But it has gone to far. I know all that i need to know and try to ignore the mindless dribble that comes out of his mouth.

Ahhh yes, praying for our country… bringing attention to the need to restore honor and recognizing our military hero’s is going waaaaay too far.

.

Many would rather have George Bush as president than Obama-does that make Obama polarizing?

Oh the usual Bircher invocation. Have you ever met a Bircher? Well you’re talking to one now. We aren’t fringe, we aren’t paranoid and we aren’t racist. We live in reality. A lot of Birchers hate Beck so your argument is bunk. At CPAC I got flack from my Bircher friends for going to watch him.

I wish the Left was half as concerned about defeating Al Qaedaas they are about defeating Fox news and Glenn Beck.

We almost had him at Tora Bora but we pulled troups out to go to Iraq instead. Yes it would have been great if we concentrated on the mission and were done with the endlesss war.

Personally, I can’t wait to hear what GB has to say. He left his speech notes blank because God will be speaking through him tomorrow, according to him. It will be an amazing thing. I can picture the headlines " God Speaks Through Rodeo Clown" Let’s meet here tomorrow and discuss what God wants America to do. Let freedom ring.

You used to be fringe but now you are the republican party. You’ve come a long way, baby.

And this is promoting unity how???

He asked God to give him the right words.

Good grief…

The anger and ugliness of the left is now becoming hilarious to watch.

Hmm, the party of Life, I’ll wear the label proudly.

Well sure but what good is almost when you take your eye off the ball. One might say Iraq almost had WMD too but no one found any of those either. Cost us enough though to obliterate a country, build it back up, but still without stablizing a democracy there.

Hey Glenn here’s a suggestion for your rally. Do **that **math on your chalkboard, throw in elimination of the Bush tax cuts on the upper income levels and see what the deficit would have been. :coffeeread:

There’s far more to life than one issue. Sorry but I find calling the GOP the party of life laughable.

That was probably meant as sarcasm, but, in point of fact, God has often worked through those that appear to be weak. In this way, it is clear that it is the work of God.

Are we to unify around glenn beck? I humbly await the Holy Spirit to illuminate His intentions through this holy one.

 

[Via_Dolorosa]

Do you think the Holy Spirit may give some advice on social justice to the annointed one? He (gb) seems to have gotten the wrong message. I hope the Holy Spirit clears it all up tomorrow. It’s gong to be a big day.

Signs are not welcomed.

That may be attributed to the numerous spelling errors that appear.

I am troubled by the idea that some equate disagreement with stupidity or ignorance. Not every disagreement is the result of the stupidity and/or ignorance of one of the parties. Further, we are never going to heal the divisions in this nation with that sort of thinking/talking/writing.

I appeal to you to elevate the tone.

Perhaps one can elevate the tone in a different thread. This thread is just plain silly. I agree that not every disagreement is the result of stupidity and ignorance. but if one is to proudly proclaim a value or a disagreement, please don’t embarrass this nation by appearing to be illiterate. This nonsense is televised throughout the world.

OK, but we can elevate our own tone, right here, where we are, can’t we? And then we can set an example for others.
