Comments on: Is Glenn Beck a Disciple of Crackpot Ron Paul? http://www.newsrealblog.com/2009/09/15/is-glenn-beck-a-disciple-of-crackpot-ron-paul/ Fri, 10 Feb 2012 12:34:39 +0000 hourly 1 By: JR http://www.newsrealblog.com/2009/09/15/is-glenn-beck-a-disciple-of-crackpot-ron-paul/#comment-9863 JR Wed, 23 Sep 2009 17:46:16 +0000 http://newsrealblog.com/?p=8260#comment-9863 I love how I am lumped in with 9/11 truthers, conspiracy theorists and other unsavory types because I don't believe the founders had any interest in nation-building in countries with no history of representative government. The Barbary Wars were not a war of occupation involving tens of thousands of troops being permanently stationed in a foreign land whilst trying to impose our system of government on them. It was a punitive action. The idea that Jefferson would have supported forcing a bunch of cavemen to adopt our constitutional framework of government is laughable. The founders wanted to be an EXAMPLE of freedom, not to impose it on others. That was Napoleon's plan. Now go back to playing global policeman.

But there are real conspiracies out there one was mentioned by Jonathan the anarchist that rioted in Washington and some of them violated federal law title 18 crossing state lines to engage in criminal behaviour. I have also served FFJ warrants on members of the Aryan Brotherhood that would make the rioters wet there pants. The thing is however not to go chasing everything as a conspiracyit just simply not always the Shriners conspiring to tell a dirty joke and I appreciate the fine work they do for children and contribute so I mean them no harm. Hell they even fed me one time. Mr. Swindle is right there are kooks on both sides I know I have arrested some of the worst and served FFJ warrants on them.

If you know anything about Vermont, it rains, and rains and rains, and when it's done it rains some more...after that it gets cold and snows, then it's mud season... I should be absolutely brilliant soon - LOL FL here we come. Jonathan, thanks for the link and advice on what to do on a rainy day.

That’s what he thought of it. Islam didn’t even exist in 1776, people." You might consider yourself a patriot but you have no idea what the hell you're talking about. Islam has existed since Muhammad founded it over a thousand years ago. The Founders even wrote about what they thought about Islam. And if you love America then why aren't you willing to defend it from the Islamofascists wanting to destroy it? Cut 85% of the defense budget? What sort of patriot wants to cripple America's ability to defend itself? "David Horowitz will someday REJOIN his comrades on the left." Isn't it great when people say brainless things like this which makes it so we can laugh at them and disregard what they have to say? “We want to know what Thomas Jefferson thought of “islamofacism” – nothing.

It's an exerpt of a speech to newspaper publishers in 1961: "Today no war has been declared, and however fierce the struggle may be, it may never be declared in the traditional fashion. Our way of life is under attack. Those who make themselves our enemy are advancing around the globe. The survival of our friends is in danger. And yet no war has been declared, no borders have been crossed by marching troops, no missiles have been fired.... ... For we are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies primarily on covert means for expanding its sphere of influence -- on infiltration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimidation instead of free choice, on guerrillas by night instead of armies by day. It is a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources into the building of a tightly knit, highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific, and political operations."

The constituency of the left are idiots. If you aren’t aligned with nuts, they are going to tell people you are anyway. And they will be believed. Don’t worry about anything like that. Those who agree with you, will agree with you. Those who don’t, never will." This isn't true at all. You completely ignore the apolitical, the center, and the moderate reasonable segment of the Left (the latter of which I used to be a part of.) You CAN reach people who disagree with your views and you CAN teach people how to love America. I'm living proof. Sure, the Left will smear people. But that's no excuse not to avoid talking like a conspiracist and to dismiss efforts to reach the reachable. “You are going to be accused of it anyway, Julie. The constituency of the left are idiots.
