CROWD ROARS at Restoring Honor Rally as MLK's Niece Alveda King Declares: "I Too Have a Dream!" (Video)
Posted by Jim Hoft on Saturday, August 28, 2010, 3:50 PM
Alveda Celeste King, a pro-life activist and niece of Dr. Martin Luther King, gave a powerful and moving speech to the 500,000+ patriots gathered in Washington DC today at the Restoring Honor Rally. Today was the 47th anniversary of her uncle’s speech at the Lincoln Memorial. Like her uncle before her, she also had a message.
Alveda King told the crowd, “I too have a dream!”
This was a terrific speech!
Via Freedom’s Lighthouse:
But, according to Al Sharpton and his leftist cohorts, she’s a racist.

I am so thankful that I do not have hate in my heart as those people have! So sad!
ahem commented:
Yeah, Dr. King was wonderful. You can stick a fork in the Dems.
Maria commented:
Pure Al to think that way
allyHM commented:
Ginger @ #1,
Who is “those people?” The people I saw at the Beck rally – and I saw nearly the entire thing live as I streamed it on my laptop – showed no “hate” in their hearts. Not a single one. In fact, the entire event was about love – love of God, love of country and love for each other.
Jim commented:
What a stirring speech! And what a wonderful way to honor her uncle and all of America.
Stephen Lowe commented:
A local CBS affiliate in Raleigh said “tens of thousands” and implied Al’s group was similar size. What a bunch of know-nothings.
Ginger commented:

But, according to Al Sharpton and his leftist cohorts, she’s a racist.
Those people are refered to as DEMO RATS. Maybe my sentence was incomplete sentence. I am as God loving and love for my country as anyone could be!
SM-Illinois commented:
I love Alveda & Pastor Stephen Brody(sp?). They’re fantastic!!! No victimhood baloney. Just good responsible regular people. Whereas Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson and those types are pure race hustlers…..stirring up hatred and animosity sort of like a gang….where they try to lean on others to pay them for protection so they can continue their evil-doing. And Barry and Moochelle are playing the same evil game. Enough already. Everybody’s got excuses & hardships..part of life…..but this fostering of grievances and stirring animosity…….kind of same game the union bosses play…..or the mafia…….mis-use of power and control to they can seize power and control to wreak their evil doing. What more can be said then Saul Alinsky dedicating his book “Rules for Radicals” to Lucifer!! Thank God for Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin! Standing up for rightiousness and good rather then hate and evil.
Andrew X commented:
Wowwwww…
Getting MLK’s neice up there. That’s pretty huge. Didn’t see that comin’.
I’m a local, and I was there, BTW, from 11am to 12, and wound up leaving, not out of any dissappointment per se, but just because I couln’t get anywhere near the speakers or the reflecting pool, and just because crowds kinda freak me out, and that was a MAJOR CROWD, lemme tell you. I was glad to be even a small part of it. (I didn’t know Sista Sarah was gonna be there. I’m an idiot.)
VERY inspiring numbers. Mr. Obama would do well to understand that there are lessons in history that a worth remembering that actaully did take place before 1960.
One of them is, “You can’t take Moscow without risking Berlin.”
reliapundit commented:
WOW:
SHE
IS
GRRRRRRREAT!
allyHM commented:
Ginger @ #7,
OK, now I’m clear. I thought you meant Dr. King and the others at Beck’s rally, not Sharpton and his crew. Thanks for clearing that up.
Bobbi commented:
she is a tireless pro-life advocate, who feels that unborn children have the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. so, naturally she is anti-Obama.

God Bless you Alveda King! God Bless America!

Rev Al $3000 suit, fitty cent brain.
firstHat commented:
The video does not do it justice. I was there. We got there two hours before the start and *just* got a seat on the lawn in front of the last jumbo tron which was more than halfway down the reflecting pool and over on the lawn to the left. of the reflecting pool. When that crowd cheered it filled the whole area. Unfortunately, in that clip you can’t hear that roar nor does it look as though the people behind her are even paying attention. We, out there on the grass, were riveted. It was wonderful!
Ginger commented:
allyHM
It’s ok…I sometimes think of what I am saying but type something else. Blame it on old age. Any way I would love to meet Dr. Alveda King. She has that wonderful way of getting your attention just as her uncle Dr. Martin Luther King. I am glued to the tv when she is there. I so admire her.
sliderblaze commented:
so nbc says 300k, so you can be sure to double that right off the bat
USMC Thomas commented:
I heard SObama was going to attend and speak, but had to cancel because everybody had to speak without a teleprompter.
Alo89 commented:
My wife and I got there at 7:00 Friday night. We were about 100 yards from the podium. Spent the night making new friends. 500,000+ people singing “Amazing Grace” accompanied by bagpipes was awesome.
jb commented:
Twana B. Sharpton got his shorts handed to him today. While C-SPAN’s giving “objective” coverage to that sad spectacle (as did Wapo), it was likewise sad in its attempt to equate the two events of today.
As happened 47 years ago, yet today another King stood in front of all and spoke of true change. Now if only the rest of us were to actually change, and understand what America was supposed to be.
That’s the one change we have never tried.
jainphx commented:
I was a little worried that we could not keep the momentum until November, that worry has been removed by the out pouring of Love. Good people when given a chance just gravitate to brotherhood and love of G-D and country. Were you listening Obama? maybe if you fell down on your knees and asked for forgiveness, no your ego is way to big.
aro5o75 commented:
It’s wonderful to hear from people that were there, I was one of the 126,000 Ustream viewers and was truly moved.
Chkn Fryd commented:
Yeah, “love.” That’s what I see here. Let the Becksploitation begin. Just which of us un-American, fellow country men of yours are you going to be taking the country back from again? And doesn’t that mean you’ll be taking the country away from your countrymen. Wait…
YOU’RE TAKING AMERICA AWAY FROM AMERICANS!!! NNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
You really can’t trust those crazies in D.C. can you? It’s like they live in a whole other world or something.
Granny commented:
Chkn Fryd, have you considered a brain transplant? The consistent “logic” of your comments indicates that you are in drastic need of two brain cells to rub together.
Granny commented:
aro575, you were one of over 130,000 viewers
And there were 150K more on Facebook. Nobody knows how many tuned in on C-Span
Chkn Fryd commented:
Ooh, ooh. Civil rights, did they talk about the civil rights? I mean Rand Paul; did he talk about how he didn’t think much of the event at the center of the struggle you all went there to commemorate so that your could carry your momentum into the fall so that he could move forward with his agenda to undo the rights stuggle you went there to commemorate?
Sorry it doesn’t fit on a bumpersticker. Hard truth is like that
aro5o75 commented:
YardBird, you’ve ben eating too much of your own droppings.
jainphx commented:
Chkn Fryd this country was founded on the simple fact that ALL men are created equal and the constitution was a protection of the people from the GOVERNMENT. That the government now in power has neither read nor abides by the constitution is plain for any sane man or woman to see. Obviously you haven’t been watching.
Chkn Fryd commented:
Penatrating insight Granny. With dissertations like that, no wonder know it all elitists are afraid of your penatrating beacon of truth.
Seriously, that’s what you’re bringing to this?
aro5o75 commented:
Did you practice that in front of a mirror, YardBird?
Chkn Fryd commented:
Jain: No, it’s not plain. Many of us watched the last administration do the same stuff. You all told us to sit down, shut up, and ignore the illegalities. Too late. And try harder; all this self-evident stuff just ain’t so.
OR AM I AN INFILTRATOR??????????????
aro5o75 commented:
You’re just a clown
Americaneocon commented:
American Power tracked-back with, ‘Alveda King, Niece of Martin Luther King Jr., Speaks on Anniversary of ‘Have a Dream’ Speech’.
Chkn Fryd commented:
You’re right about that Aro. Pretty soon I’ll have my tv show, radio show, BBQ on the mall, movies, books, plays, everything. But I’m not jealous in the least. The last time I talked to God, he told me not to worry about it.
Chisum commented:
It takes brains to be an infiltrator.
And lips.
Brooklyn commented:
Congratulations to all.
Very fine display by so many fine Americans.
Beck steps up and does very well again.
Very impressive.
He still bug me, playing the game at times, and I remain a cynic of the fashion.
One hopes this continued effort, this wonderful movement, coupled with the outstanding TEA PARTY Protests, the growing push for Republicans with sound Conservative – Center Right positions, etc., will erode the folly which enables this Disastrous Democratic Partisan offering.
I do grow concerned, and have expressed with many friends, associates, etc., on the right side of history, of the fashion which continues to treat the GOP, Republicans, etc. unfairly. The gross distortion and vivid fashionable disdain, distorting the record and slandering many honest Americans doing their best is tiresome, and weakens Our side.
But I welcome Beck doing his best, and the many who showed up to really make a great display.
Chkn Fryd commented:
Oh, but this wasn’t a Tea rally, a political rally, a partisan rally. GB said so. Too bad all of you true belivers sound like the infiltrators you are looking for.
Keep talking. More moral authority for me.
jb commented:
CF–
Rand Paul said exactly “what?”
He made a very clear distinction that most totally miscomprehended, including you.
Alveda King’s speech celebrated how far we have come as one people since her uncle’s speech. You seem to want to turn the clock back to that day to maintain the negative tension, as do racial profiteers like Sharpton.
That argument has worn extremely thin, and even more tedious. A good troll should have a decent point or two.
Chkn Fryd commented:
jb: you can either talk or trample on the 14th amendment but I can’t hear you clearly when you do both.
I heard him clearly and repeatedly. So answer me this, how do you gain entry to a public place when the property owner wants you out? So you were for infiltrators before you were against them?
Annaleesea commented:
The people who spit on my uncle Junior aka Franklin are the same ones who are in charge of the country today. Old hippies are very dangerous. It seems to me its like a neurological disease.l.
jb commented:
Private property is not “public” . . .
It is private, and hence, it’s up to the owner who enters—not the “public” and especially not the gummint.
By the way—exactly where in the 14th Amendment is private property suddenly and arbitrarily transferred to “public” ownership.
And speak/write like a rational human being. Your trash talk makes me wonder if you got out of the basement yet today and put on something more than your BVD’s.
Act like an adult.
Chkn Fryd commented:
You’re bringing honor back? No, not really. Try decency first, maybe politieness, but honor may be too much to ask right away.
Chkn Fryd commented:
WELL DONE JB. Quite right. The 14th amendment deals with the federal government making sure the state is treating you right. On a separate note, my contention is that if you open your establishment to all, civil rights laws mean you will have a really hard time saying, on an arbitrary basis, “so and so stay out,” even if you do own the place. Rand disagrees.
And if you agree with Rand, then don’t you have to shut up about the Ground Zero Mosque? I mean, they own the land, property rights rule, according to Rand, and the government should stay out of it. Or have I been listening a little too closely to the debate?
bitterclinger commented:
I attended the Restoring Honor Rally with the family today and it was incredible. Until you’ve heard half a million people sing “Amazing Grace” along with the gospel choir accompanying the bagpipers, well, you haven’t expereinced all that life has to offer.
And, Brooklyn, knowing what a Palin fan you are, I wore my C4P polo today but was hardly alone in the sea of “you betcha” shirts! As her intro was gearing up, the excitement was building in the crowd and you could hear people chanting “Sarah!” She was outstanding, but it was Beck who stole the show. (Alveda King really rang the bell when she talked about putting a stop to America’s baby-slaughtering culture.) For such a soft-spoken woman, she packs a heckuva punch!
sliderblaze commented:
time to educate chckn fryd (is that meant to be racist or something) Taking the country back from idiots like you… thats one. Rand Paul was speaking to the question, if freedom is a God given right, then why in the hell did it have to take congress to give it to them? equal is equal in the eyes of the lord but wasnt in the eyes of government and it was the government who was in the way, MLK knew that, Rand knew that as do conservatives. Democrats created the KKK, fought against the civil rights movement and use it to beat conservatives over the head with to this very day. We arent taking it anymore DEMOCRATS OWN RACISM, DONT TRY AND PAWN THAT NONSENSE OFF ON US, KEEP IT, YA’LL WORKED HARD FOR IT.
Chkn Fryd commented:
I thought the problem you all had with the President is that a good speaker does not a leader make. But it’s different for SP? I’m sure she was inspirational, but her leadership’s just not inspired.
The scary thing is that I want to restore the country too. But I’m damn sure she’s not the way to go.
Granny commented:
Bravo Sliderblaze! Chkn Fryd, you’ll find darned few conservatives that think TheWon is a good speaker. He reads his teleprompter well but it ends there. Without TOTUS, he can barely utter a coherent sentence, something he has illustrated repeatedly. No way he could have done what Beck or Palin or King did today and go out there and SPEAK without a single teleprompter in sight.
sliderblaze commented:
we’ve seen Obama speak without a teleprompter, there are more uh’s in there than actual nouns, verbs, adjective etc. it’s actually bout as painful to watch as Gibbs speak… at least if u are gonna put an uh in there, have something intelligent to say after it.
Militant Conservative commented:
ya lil prick, you have no idea of the freedoms you have and the freedoms you stand to lose in Obama land. Your just an uneducated terd of a human being that has the education of a piece of sh#t scraped off of the bottom of my shoe.
We see you posts and you identify yourself wonderfully. Your not America, your what is wrong with America. i would love to meet you, so I can correct your ignorant thoughts. I always have a pimp hand ready. powder is dry.
sliderblaze commented:
@52 lol, the pimp hand is strong with this one….
jb commented:
One last word . . .
The 14th, and the whole constitution, were written to protect individuals over against the whole concept of “state”—individual states, yes, but especially over against the Federal Gummint.
Sorry, CF—I thought you understood that much.
But that you don’t, explains even more.
Y’all have a good weekend, Sports Fans. The Texans are crushing the Cowboys—off Kirby, no less.
Chkn Fryd commented:
Oh slip slider…
You either don’t know your history or you don’t know where you are now. It was governments, in Conservative areas only once Democratic, which passed laws keeping some folks not free. And these laws were soooooo popular. And what do you all think of laws which are popular, no matter how unfair or unConstitutional?
The Bible and the Constitution (initially, but you’ll fix that when you gut the 14th Amendment) never promised freedom to all God’s children. It took men, laws, and liberals working with solid conservatives (they were called Democrats back then) to make it happen.
Sorry, I can’t read the rest of my notes; my hand is smudged. But you becha I still look hot.
Jack B. Nimble commented:
Chickenfryed, chickentried, chicken lied, chichkendied.
Chkn Fryd commented:
JB: go read your Chicago guns case; you’re a little off base. What was the 14th for if not to maintain Federal Constitutionality (somewhat) in all of the states.
Becktackular eveyone, I feel the love which will restore Amerika, just not for Americans.
sliderblaze commented:
So bull connor was a what? Democrat, who filibustered the civil rights movement, Byrd, Democrat, it’s funny how 20% of the Dems were against the civil rights movement and 80% of republicans were FOR IT. including… wait for it, CONSERVATIVES moron. I know my history, you def. dont wanna go there with me. wrong guy. you wear that a$$ as a hat well and proud, a nice tight fit. Again, you keep the racism on you’re side, you earned it.
Chkn Fryd commented:
It’s hard out here for a pimp.
Sorry slider, the Democrats you can’t stand in America’s past were also the conservatives of their time and the forbears to many conservatives of today – Republicans, Tea parties, and such. Don’t believe me, let’s look at the record of Conservatives staying Conservative but going from Dem to GOP (let’s start with the ones who are so insignificant that they were able to do it right under your noses AND YOU LOVED THEM FOR IT):
Jesse Helms, Strom Thurmond, Saxby Chambliss, Phil Graham, Trent Lott, … … you know, the ones history forgot?!
Pimp’n ain’t easy.
Wit is dry.
Chkn Fryd commented:
Hey, before we get to hating on this too much, I seriously want to say “thank you” to MLK for giving us a land where we can talk about this stuff. Talk about “Amazing Grace.” I’m proud he was looking out for my country. And though I disagree with most of you, we don’t disagree THAT we want the best for Americans, we just disagree about WHAT that may be.
Ad rem commented:
Hmmmmmm………I’m looking forward to a big helping of fried chicken on Nov. 2nd!
Valerie commented:
Oh, well done, dear lady!
sliderblaze commented:
um, the modern conservative movement, was born at the same time the civil rights movement was going on… however Adlai Stevenson (liberal) who won the Dem nomination, chose who to be his VP, John freakn Sparkman, a SEGREGATIONIST. (you know, the ones liberals forget and dont wanna talk about) it wasnt a conservative thing, it was a north south thing… some conservatives just happen to be in the south part of the Democrat party direct descendents of slave owners and KKK members . And if you dont know the difference between a conservative Democrat and a Conservative Republican, that there lies the difference, it was you’re party that was against it. Conservatives AND LIBERALS…. Conservative republicans have Principles!!
Pimpn IS easy!! Douche

Chkn Fryd = Chicken Sh!t
Chkn Fryd commented:
And I’ll be eating pit bull on my bear rug.
I’m sure you’ll get your November victory. When has fear not driven people to the polls? When has hatred of minories not been popular? And all it’ll take is for you to be as unConstitutional then as you think I am right now.
Funny how we haven’t talked about 2 wars, the economy, debt, unemployment, education, violence, or drugs. Nah, Conservatives can’t win on those ideas; so, do let’s talk about “honor” some more my sore afraid white brothers. Or has SP’s hand run out of talking points?
Wearn’ that badge don’t make you right.
sliderblaze commented:
what, u brought up the racism via rand paul, moron, now wanna change the subject since u getn schooled what dont wanna talk about a segragationist as ur parties VP nominee… of course not. we can talk about whatever you want, you’ll get schooled either way
sliderblaze commented:
Debt – bush’s record 586 billion bad, obama tripling it, good… (even though in 2008 it was a DEMOCRAT controlled congress) still didnt give bush the right to sign it. that argument, stupid
Wars, what about them?
The economy, good lord, your savior took a bad situation and made it worse, congrats on that.. u really wanna have this convo? bring it, i’ll learn ya something
Stanley commented:
“Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. [11] The Pharisee stood up and prayed about himself: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like other men — robbers, evildoers, adulterers — or even like this tax collector. [12] I fast twice a week and give a tenth of all I get.’
[13] “But the tax collector stood at a distance. He would not even look up to heaven, but beat his breast and said, ‘God, have mercy on me, a sinner.’
[14] “I tell you that this man, rather than the other, went home justified before God. For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.” Christ
Chkn Fryd commented:
Chippy & Numble: why don’t you go melt your gold coins into a calf or something.
Great debate tactic Slider – slight me for not responding to your facts while you don’t respond to mine. I’m not worried about a sherriff, I’m worried about Senators. And if you want to make it about Southerners, then ask all your Republicans to disavow their Southern roots IN THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY, since for the longest time, no real southerner would be a member of the party made famous by the greatest domestic terrorist until OBL – Abraham Lincoln. These aren’t my words, just the sentiments of the good folks what I done growed up with, who are now mostly Republican. And where is the GOP strongest if not in the Confederacy? It’s called Southern heritage and they won’t disavow it, NOR SHOULD THEY. But they just want you to overlook it AND YOU ARE. So don’t commemorate what MLK did while you overlook what created the need for him to have done what he did in the first place. That only robs you of your honor. Seriously.
Ruebacca commented:
Great social conservative speech.
Chkn Fryd commented:
Stanley @ 68: Everyone say “Amen.”
sliderblaze commented:
wow, u sound like an idiot, on one hand blasting people who wont disavow and on the other hand saying they shouldnt disavow, i can tell im in a battle of wits with a multiple amutee. And when it comes right down to it, again, MLK knew it was the Federal Govt who was in the way, he knew rights were granted by god and govt was taking it away from them… Seems to me that MLK was preaching about conservative values right there. It is you that have no honor wanting to paint republicans with a wide brush and equate them with the people “you done growed up with” just cus your people are racists, dont make the rest of us that. Every party has it’s fringe and the Democrat fringe is running this baby right now. I can tell you a story bout the people I GREW UP WITH, family members. ALL DEMOCRATS who speak very ill of african americans.. And your honor cant be robbed, for that to happen, you must first have it.
Chkn Fryd commented:
Stanley makes a great point. I appreciate everyone’s perspective. And I’m not saying “I’m right.” But it’ll take more than this to convince me. And the “Chickentwit” remarks don’t exactly bespeak of humility on ya’lls part. Let’s all try harder next time.
sliderblaze commented:
42% of america describe themselves as conservative on the other side, 20% liberal, whos the fringe?
and to let you know, OBL isnt a domestic terrorist, he’s not America genius.
Neve commented:
We’re about to commence on a very ugly campaign season. Could we PLEASE stop feeding the trolls. I don’t care how entertained you pretend you are by conversing with them, it ruins otherwise good threads, and that’s their objective. PLEASE ignore them. Everyday it’s the same. I can’t get through many discussions because someone thinks they can change a troll’s mind. You never will. Thank you.
sliderblaze commented:
NEVE, just making them look like complete idiots, hit them with facts and logic… you cant really tell a fool till they open their mouths
stupidity happens when facts are presented, willful ignorance ensues.
Chkn Fryd commented:
Sorry Neve, but I’m not giving up on these good folks whom you refer to as … … oh you mean ME? And that’s what makes you more moral than me? I get it now. Sorry your train of groupthink became all unsanitized and stuff. Just rub The National Review on the burning sensation and the irritation will subside.
Hey could be worse; I could have been called an — infiltrator.
Fight the Power Slider, Fight the Power.

Time Distortion?
Your predicament is that you think you heard in the present, but in reality Chkn Fryd, your only hearing and seeing the past and not the present. Perhaps this will explain these unique manifestations you are receiving. If you really want to reach across time, turn your camera around, so you can see where this stuff is coming from.
Chkn Fryd commented:
But he doesn’t take issue with the classification of the man who freed the slaves; interesting.
As I recall, the Congressional testimony of the National Security Advisor during 9/11 stated that 9/11 was a domestic attack and that’s why her office wasn’t more up to speed on the situation as it developed. Wasn’t I supposed to agree with everything Conservatives said? Especially in a time of war? Who am I to disagree with Dr. Rice? I’m for her, not against her. But that’s just my opinion, I could be wrong babe.
Isn’t this like that FOX news grammar thingy: it’s never “suicide” bomber, it’s always “homocide” bomber; though the bomber also deliberately died in the same attack, noboby involved in the attack may be subject to Prop 8, and all of this misinformation is just glossed over?
Dude, I am, like, so not the “troll” here, man.
Chkn Fryd commented:
Actually, it should read:
“Momma say, ‘knock you out.’”
See, we came this (‘) close to an agreement.

ok, for the slow kids of the class and there is always one, usually the one eating the glue.

Gary D commented:
The company AirPhotosLive.com based the attendance on aerial pictures it took over the rally, which stretched from in front of the Lincoln Memorial along the Reflecting Pool to the Washington Monument. Beck and former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin spoke at the rally.
Beck, who predicted that at least 100,000 people would show up, opened his comments with a joke: “I have just gotten word from the media that there is over 1,000 people here today.”
The area around the Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool in Washington during a rally organized by conservative commentator Glenn Beck is seen in this aerial picture taken Aug. 28, 2010.
(Credit: AirPhotosLIVE.com) AirPhotosLive.com gave its estimate a margin of error of 9,000, meaning between 78,000 and 96,000 people attended the rally. The photos used to make the estimate were taken at noon Saturday, which is when the company estimated was the rally’s high point.
I found weeping Beck and the 99% white crowd at the Lincoln Memorial violates my “sensitivities.” Should he had moved it elsewhere as he demands of the Muslim Cultural Center in New York?
sliderblaze commented:
that could be you’re whole problem, you’re listening wrong. lol
Marsh commented:
I didn’t like her speech to be honest. She slipped in a lot of race filled marxist rhetoric as far as I’m concerned. She derided current day “white privilege” while at the same time lectured the country about racism. Hypocrisy much? If anything, the roles are reversed these days. I’d love to get into Harvard with 1100 SAT scores and other extremely sweet free handouts.
sliderblaze commented:
Gary D d for douche right?
you can take you’re “sensitivities” and stick them you know where. to try and equate becks rally with the 9/11 attack makes you look, well, like a douch
sliderblaze commented:
And to let you know gary, using the MLK march stats, each side of the reflective pool holds 100K+ on each side… nice try tho. i’ll wait for the official count… facebook at 133K+ on that stream alone. now, go away
Chkn Fryd commented:
So a foreign Saudi terrorist from Afghanistan launched a domestic attack on the United States? No wonder we invaded Iraq!
Walked right into it ladies and gentlemen.
The Confederacy, it really was “a whole other country.” And Lincoln was never its President. But you didn’t pick up on this either, so I’ll just say you won this entire point so we can move on. Care to go for any substance?
Neve is really proud of you right now by the way. What’s the next topic, the difference between “flammable” and “inflammable?”
Slider, (sniff) you stink.

Good lord you’re dumb, no, thats why we invaded AFGHANISTAN, typical lib logic, deflect to make a point, then wanna claim victory, stay focused will you… straight retarded. lets break it down
Afghanistan (place where OBL or as you call him, domestic terrorist) = apples
Iraq (wnd producer, I know that cus clinton told me so) = oranges however BOTH STILL FRUIT
LOL, A war is a battle between nations not terrorism you idiot, terrorism is the targeting of civilians in an act of aggression to achieve, usually a political objective aka the KKK the “terrorist wing of the DEMOCRATIC party”. see, the operative word in the Civil War is WAR, but i guess you didnt pick up on that either.. once again, and i’ll amend my previous statement, you can tell the slow kids in the class by their glue consumption and sniffing, as well as their parents sporting an Obama sticker on their car.
Epic Fail… Note: Terrorism is not war but their can be a war on terrorism, someone should let Obama know that.

Gary D, There was something about your post that sounded familiar. Yeah I saw those AirPhotos balloons. I wonder who hired them. A look at their client list offered two clear possibilities: CNN and Washington Post. The first makes good vacation entertainment for pet birds and the second make great cage liners.

Chkn Fryd, are you really that ignorant? The rationale for toppling Saddam Hussein was not because somebody invented a connection to 9/11. There was a list of reasons, rooted in events going back into the 1990s.
The Clinton administration started establishing regime change in Iraq as a policy objective, and identified the Iraqi regime as one of the topmost agents of terror in the world.
Numerous very prominent Democrats issued dire warnings about the grave danger that Saddam posed with his WMD, and said we absolutely must stop him, with force if necessary. They all did an about-face when they decided it was politically expedient to attack Bush for the war they had themselves supported, and even to attack the troops in the field and do all they could to engineer and American loss.

I have been reading the Talking Points of the Huffpo and Talk Left. Let me give you two good points:
1: Most of those people were typical White People who are angry about high taxes. So, they are all racists. That’s no reason vote my cronies and I out of Office!
2: Beck only drew a few hundred-thousand. Al Sharpton got 3,000… of which 2,789 were bussed in – I know Axelrod paid the bill! And, cigs and bus fuel are expensive.
Yes, I know I suck but this crowd is too much. Good day!

You’re bringing honor back? No, not really. Try decency first, maybe politieness, but honor may be too much to ask right away.
——————————–
Politeness, that’s why you always pop up here with name calling, eh?
Leading by example, that’s where the left wing is so strong… wait… no… they ain’t.
The left is all “do as I say, not do as I do.” Well done Chicken. Maybe you should run for Politeness Czar.
And why is every Conservative protest I’ve seen peaceful, and every left wing protest, at one point, turns violent or is full of F bombs and other swear words?
Politeness… Good joke Chicken.

The liberal game is screwing with the language. Words mean things and this is the Liberals intent. Screw the language up so to make themselves “sound” likable and good when they are just liars and deceivers. Chicken choker is truely a glittering jewel of colossal ignorance. Slider you did well letting the ignorant show their stupidity. Good reading material and shows the left for what they are.
powder is dry. chicken wit is dung in the yard

Awesome event. . . America is waking up! Time for the leftist dividers to see the power of these UNITED States. . . One nation UNDER GOD!
Thank you all who attended, watched, and supported. . . you are all patriots. And thank you Glen Beck for having the courage to stand up and make a difference!
And thank you to the brave men & women in uniform, Past & Present, who protect & defend our Liberties & Freedom, and for who this event honored! Freedom is NOT FREEE!. . Many have sacrificed much so others can enjoy the blessings in this country we hold so sacred.
Why would any true loyal & patriotic American be against this gathering??? Those that find fault may have another agenda. Be on guard!
The words spoken at this event were powerful and inspirational. So too were the stories shared, especially the three Sarah Palin told of the sacrifices by our troops.
And since words do matter, let us all go out and start speaking up. . . silent no longer! The truth needs to be told. . with Integrity and Love!
Oh, and speaking of words. . .I noticed there were no tele-prompters on the stage. . . these speakers spoke using only notes and what GOD has written on their hearts. . .
GOD Bless America!
PS See you all in November!

About the numbers at Beck’s rally. On Drudge, there is a photo taken from the west window of the Washington Monument that shows some of the rally participants.
Beck should immediately file a freedom of information request to the National Park Service for their overhead imagery. The weather was clear, so their helicopters will have good, time stamped images. Using the 200′ width of the reflecting pool as a scale, count the heads in a 200′ X 200′ square to determine crowd density. My guess is that there are 150,000 people visible in MLK Park and along the reflecting pool. There were probably twice that number under the trees. Add the folks between the WWII Memorial and the Washington Monument (Michele Bachmann’s Tea Party), and we are well over a half million.
BTW: Ignore the ignorant, irrational ravings of Chkn Fryd. She is trying pathetically to distract and deflect our discussion.

Dick Morris had an interesting piece on TownHall yesterday. This isn’t Morris’ first midterm and he makes an interesting set of observations.
First, wonks like me have been paying attention all along, but many Americans are just looking at the campaign issues, a fact that is contributing to the rise of conservatives and the decline of liberals.
This is a slow tidal shift which will continue until a week to ten days before the election when it will turn into a tsunami. Democrats, unable to fix the economy they broke, will be slaughtered. There is no such thing as a safe seat.

Thanks to everyone who attended or contributed to this Restoring Honor Rally. I wanted to be there, but could not.
$5M in Washington is budget dust, but in the hands of the Special Operations Warrior Foundation, it is a fortune. Just shows how much more effective the private sector is at accomplishing a task than is the government.

I went to the Mall yesterday to help feed my spiritual side. I was NOT disappointed. We (Conservatives) pray for a peaceful solution to the divide, the derision of Faith in this Country which was founded on Christian Judeo principles, taking this Country to a semblance (or further) of European socialism (which is not
where FREE people) want to go. HATE spewed by the LEFT, I will not say DEMS because there are freedom loving DEMS who are being overshadowed by their party, because we oppose going to that Monster of Socialism/Marxism/Communism. This is not good for our Nation. It may take many elections to RID ourselves of the elite who KNOW better than we huddled masses (Ask Joe Sestak and Casey, they tell me ALL the time).
They only things that can be REGULATED are the people, hence, the need for a Restoration in this Country. BACK TO 1787 WHERE MEN HAD PRINCIPLES, VALUES, HONOR, RELIGION, AND BESTOWED FREEDOM ON THEIR CONSTITUENTS!

I’m amazed and deeply pleased to see the Gary D’s of the liberal world display over and over again that they just don’t get it. Beck hopes for 100k in attendance, Gary counts only 96k at best which means…. what does it mean? I guess it means that the entire conservative platform is wrong, as are the rosy prospects for the 11/02 elections? Is that how it works?
By this reasoning, if a Super Bowl game doesn’t draw the viewership expected, the game doesn’t count, right? All NFL fans must then abandon football for soccer.
I want to thank Gary D for demonstrating the vacousness inherent in liberal thought and I hope he and other libs continue to keep playing that violin of irrelevancy all the way up until the last string breaks – on November 2nd.
