I thought it odd that Sharpton had to have a rally the same day with almost the same name. Also, does he have a rally every year to mark Martin Luther Kings "I have a dream speach". Odd to celebarate the 47 the year. Did they have one for the 45th year. I can see doing it on the 50th, but I hope it will be color blind by then.

Glen Beck lost me when he bushwacked Debra Medina.
He dishonored every Texan who gave her their vote, and there were many thousands of us.

By asking her if she thought 9-11 was an inside job and letting her answer the question....

Not sure thats an ambush, she did it all herself. All he did was ask the question.

She did answer honestly, as she should.
There are a lot of Americans who believe there are unanswered questions about the event.
What Beck did was ridicule her after she left and could not respond.

There aren't many people getting elected who wear tin foil hats.

The Republican-party is apparently calling up people on the phone and stating that we need to vote in order to "investigate Obama". They make absolutely no mention that we don't need to investigate Obama or that we need to address the issues in regards to what Obama has managed to subvert and screw-up since he got into office.
If the Republicans don't realize that pressing the issues is what will get votes this mid-term election, and simply emphasize that we should be attacking the Obama cult-of-personality they will lose whatever momentum has been gained in the past year and blow the next election.
Obama just stated, "we will rebuild New Orleans".
He didn't mention that we the taxpayers would have to do it.
He can't give home-loans to welfare recipients that have no jobs unless he changes that. So the only people that are going to get money in New Orleans to build are investors that will run away at the next Hurricane. If Habitat for Humanity wants to come in and build houses, great, because otherwise the American tax-payer is going to be subsidizing any rebuilding that may occur.
We can rant about restoring honor all day long, but we need to address the issues and don't make a martyr out of our Socialist President.

I agree. We don't need investigations, we need repeal of some terrible laws currently on the books, tax cuts, and less "direction" from washington. Thats what they should focus on.

Don't attack the man, reverse his policies and let history show what a fool he was.

I don't think you were watching the right channel, BHO's name was never mentioned once.

It would have been easy to say their policies are responsible for record unemployment, record death toll in Afghanistan, record use of food stamps, record bank failures, record Democrat corruption, record number of unelected and unaccountable Czars, record foreclosures, home sales at record lows, record government spending, record trade deficits, record number of personal assistants for a First Lady, record number of presidential golf games, a stimulus bill that accomplished nothing other than to flush a trillion dollars down the drain, record ecological disaster in the US ignored and exploited for political purposes, taxpayer bailout of GM who now invest in Mexican auto plants, a health care bill passed late at night and on a holiday packed with Socialism and the takeover of the student loan industry, wild weekly taxpayer-financed parties at the White House followed by lavish vacations, secret wiretaps still on, secret tribunals still in effect, executive order used to assassinate Americans overseas, troops still stuck in Iraq, Michelle takes 8 holidays in Summer 2010 alone, club Gitmo still open, don't ask don't tell still on, SEC now immune from FOIA, a mosque being built on the 9-11 site, NASA being used as a Muslim outreach program, bills passed in the dead of night when no one is looking, lobbyists controlling the White House despite promises to the contrary, massive expansion of powers for the Department of Homeland Security while the southern border is left wide open to daily invasion by illegals, foreign policy disasters, and a Vice President so gaffe-prone that even the Liberals try to keep him out of the news.

But they didn't, they didn't mention any of that.

It was about restoring honor in America, being that person you should be, being honest and holding yourself to a higher standard. Faith, Hope and Charity, putting God first in our lives. That's what it was about.

And there is a finely tuned precision that the current administration demonstrates???

I'm not laughing at you personally, not at all...

I just find it amusing that in a room full of two factions of critics, opposing the other, people are looking for leadership within that very room...
