Glenn Beck started off his radio show yesterday by praising a six year old, 900+ page hardcover book called A Patriot's History of the United States: From Columbus's Great Discovery to the War on Terror.
Beck and his crew took turns talking up the Larry Schweickart tome, and the author himself:
I actually called Larry because I didn't know Larry at all. He came highly recommended when we were looking for somebody who understood the progressive movement and didn't know him. (...) I called him up afterwards about a ...
Being a college student in the early '70s, The Who was right up there on our “must see” concert list. I have often thought of them in the last few years, as their famous lyrics “won't get fooled again” continued to pop up in my mind (usually on a daily basis.) For me, that one line resonates more than any other.
Seeing them on the Superbowl half time stage commanded my full attention and arose me from my football-and-queso-dip coma. They were playing my song! I knew what ...
Of all the commercials I saw during Sunday's Super Bowl, the creepiest by far was Audi's "Green Police" ad which was supposed to laugh at the poor, beknighted fools being hauled away to goodness knows where by a new environmental police force while the cool Audi drivers got to speed away from the Stasi...I'm sorry, Green Police's, disapproval.
Michelle Malkin has done most of the heavy lifting as to why the commercial's real message of "fascism is fun!" isn't quite so funny when you consider that the enviro-cops have already ...
I've been reading -- and worse -- listening to leftwing pundits dump on the Conservative Awakening and dismiss it as a "media event." When 10,000 let alone 100,000 let alone a reported million conservatives -- people who are allergic to collective action and despise demonstrations -- march on Washington as they did on 9/12 something very serious is going on; I would say a conservative equivalent to the 1960s.
I just came from an event in St. Louis at which Glenn Beck spoke in a sports arena to ...
Author Kurt Andersen came out swinging this week in New York Magazine against democracy in action! He hates the Tea Party Movement in particular.
Andersen, a novelist who at one time was New York Magazine's chief editor, prefers when "a calm club of like-minded wise men (and women) in Washington" is calling the shots, not the people.
Andersen agrees with Elitist-in-Chief President Barack Obama who believes the opponents of his far-left policies should just sit down and shut up. Andersen liked the good old days when:
the elite media really did ...
UPDATE (6:00 AM ET)
Dutch Omroep Brabant now reports that police say no bomb has been found. A man was arrested, but he it's likely he's an insane loser with too much time on his hands and not a terrorist. Good news, if true of course.
Having said that, I do hope that this man will suffer the consequences of pulling such a "prank." The entire train station was evacuated, people couldn't get to their work, all because of one attention craving idiot. End Update
National newspapers and news channels report ...
The United States Marines, America’s best and bravest, are about to land in the Town of Marja, southern Afghanistan. The news is already out. Meetings have gone on for weeks to alert the Marja townspeople. The tribal elders know about it. It’s in the Los Angeles Times. It’s all over Afghanistan. Hell and the entire World know it. And the Taliban Soldiers of Allah know it.
The Marines have been instructed not to shoot back if there are civilians in the line of fire. Protecting Afghanistan civilians’ lives must ...
There is a billboard along I-35 near Wyoming, Minn., with a huge photo of former president George W. Bush and this question: "Miss Me Yet?"
Bob Collins of Minnesota Public Radio has verified that this is not an internet hoax or photoshop photo. And he's trying to find out who is responsible:
"There's no billboard ownership plate on this particular billboard, making tracing the person who had the cash to post it difficult to find. It's time to crowdsource this puppy."
This billboard is the ...
Incensed by the completely innocuous Tim Tebow Super Bowl commercial, sports editor Dave Zirin blogged his fury at The Nation yesterday. He admits the ad was "about as vanilla as an Andy Williams Christmas Special." But it's not the actual content of the ad that angers Zirin.
It's the pesky free speech.
He's infuriated that CBS would even consider offering a platform to Focus on the Family, an organization Zirin says has "shadowy connections to to open hate groups." He believes allowing Focus on the Family to pay ...
A DAILY WRAP-UP OF SOME OF MY FAVORITE STORIES OF THE DAY
Between a Rock and Left-Wing Lunacy
JE Tabler writes today about a group of moderate Democrats (yes – you read that correctly) in Chicago who are fighting against the radical left-wing machine - and they have one hell of a fight ahead of them.
Hey Zirin! You wish you could throw like a girl!
Kudos to Jenn Q. Public for b*tch slapping the outrageous David Zirin, sports editor at The Nation. Zirin lashed out, in a recent column, at ...
The more progressive (i.e. left-wing) a state's policies the more likely the state will get into big financial trouble, Glenn Beck opined on his TV show.
Obviously a tsunami is going to put basically everyone under water and, as you'd expect, the greatest crisis since World War II means that right now 48 states are in trouble. But there's a big difference between states that will almost always be at risk for going under water and then those that are better able to weather the storm. And that is ...
At townhall meetings across the country, militant left-wing thugs are physically assaulting Americans skeptical of President Obama’s plan to nationalize America’s health care sector, according to the “Glenn Beck Program.”
“People need to know what they’re up against,” said Culture of Corruption author Michelle Malkin:Â Â
Andy Stern said this, and I quoted it in my book, “We prefer to use the power of persuasion, but if that doesn’t work, we will use the persuasion of power.” That is their M.O. That is why you see these SEIU members clad in purple shirts beating up on innocent Americans.
Â
Beck said the President hasn’t condemned the violence: “Would it be fair to call them brown shirts? Thugs? We’ve got a thugocracy.”
Malkin said it’s no surprise that “it wasn’t until these SEIU elements were introduced into the townhalls that we saw violence for the first time.” The Obama administration “condones it,” she said, adding:
Make no mistake about it — their silence speaks volumes. HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, who, as endorsed by the SEIU, a darling cabinet candidate for them, had a teleconference with SEIU officials last week, and those officials referred to peaceful Americans demonstrating at these townhalls as terrorists, and she encouraged them to keep doing what they are doing.

As long no one is hurt or dies, I hope they keep ramping up these Workers Army or Storm Division tactics. The more the better to expose them completely and utterly for all to see. This will ensure their destruction. The only reason they have gotten this far is by subterfuge and under the surface agendas of front organizations constantly changing their name throughout history. We may be to finally catch them and at least win this round.
The purple people eaters were in the Rockland Lobster Fest parade last week. It was a fine moment to hear a pause in the crowd’s cheering and fun in order to extend an angry silence to SEIU and the campaigning democrats that walked by late in the procession.
ALL
1. Read the CPUSA Speech given last July. Available on the CPUSA Site. Outlines the specifics for just what is happening in the TownHall meetings.
2. Read the old text “Masters of Deceit” circa 1953 by J. Edgar Hoover, the old FBI Director, on dusty library shelves across the USA. THE text on Tactics, Strategy and an extensive history of the Left since the early 20th century.
3. Read the Depression Era articles available via Google. There is an extensive archive on line. Details exactly how, from a 90 year perspective, of the take over of Germany prior to the Depression. Details of the USA Unions are also laid out in these archives
Point?
History cycles and re cycles. We have been thru almost every step of this before.
Problem?
The Current USA Electorate, less the old farts, have no memory of any cycle, let alone the details. Depression era politics, Depression era history memories are nearly dust in the collective USA Electorate. What we do not recall, we will live over and over and over again, to our detriment.
Terms like SA, SD, SS, Reich, Third Reich, are beginning to appear in and on the net. The bloggers, with more time and resources on their hands, are doing the recall. We can and do see comparision analysis, some extremely scary.
Solution?
If your a blogger, watch your ISP six. If your a Townhaller, watch your front porch six. If your a AM talk show host, a TV host, a MSM conservative, watch your professional six. If your an ordinare USA Electorate, educate, learn, read, get on the net, get involved, VOTE in 2010, talk to your local neighbors. Watch their eyes when you mention any of the above.
You will get the mesage, clear and loud.

I always knew, that the Democrats talk of exclusion, human rights, moderation, talking things over, reasonableness, etc. was ALL BULL. Every bit of the lefts noble characterization of itself is Bull-hit. I remember the gay riots, in California, when the voters would not allow gay marriage. These leftists began trashing churches, putting grafitti on them, physically attacking those people and their property, who disagreed with them. These people on the left are vile to the core.
No surprise that the SEIU [note: AMERICAN is nowhere in their name!] is behind this. It’s estimated that 25% of their membership are ILLEGAL ALIENS. If they can get the healthcare system under the govt’s control, ramming a “Sh-Amnesty” through Congress will be a piece of cake by comparison.
