Glenn Beck’s Restoring Honor Rally

I received a phone call from Natasha Pascetta from the Glenn Beck program this afternoon.  She wanted to know if we in the Tip of Texas Tea Party were aware of Glenn Beck’s Restoring Honor Rally in Washington D.C. on August 28th.  I said that we were aware of it, but didn’t know for sure whether anyone was going.  I promised that I would go if at all possible.  I also said I’d post whatever information she sent me on our website. 

This is what she sent me:

Dear Chris,

I am writing to you today to ask for your help in spreading the word about The Restoring Honor Rally. The Restoring Honor Rally will take place on August 28 at the steps of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. The rally is a non-political, non-partisan event that will recognize our First Amendment rights and honor the service members who fight to protect those freedoms. Glenn Beck has partnered with the non-profit organization the Special Operations Warrior Foundation (SOWF) to make this rally happen. The SOWF provides financial aid to families of special operations personnel who have been wounded or killed in battle. All net proceeds from the Restoring Honor Rally fundraising efforts will be retained by the SOWF.  

Along with Glenn Beck, Sarah Palin and Navy Seal hero Marcus Luttrell will be speaking at the rally.  Ted Nugent and Jo Dee Messina will also be performing.

I encourage you to join us at the rally and ask you to help us spread the word about this exciting event. With only a few weeks left before the Restoring Honor Rally and there is no time to waste. Please help us to promote the rally by:

We hope that you will join us in supporting the Special Operations Warrior Foundation and the Restoring Honor Rally by spreading the word about this event. You and your members have been such an integral group in keeping America’s values and traditions paramount. We invite you to continue celebrating America by honoring our heroes, our heritage, and our future at the steps of the Lincoln Memorial on August 28.

Sincerely,

Natasha Pascetta

 Ed Morrissey over at HotAir.com posted an item about Media Matters‘ hit piece on Glenn Beck. 

Oh, they want Beck’s head on a plate so baaaaad.  Beck is the new Bush.  Beckhitler.  Beck lied, people died.  The radical ecomarxist Alinsky-inspired statist faction that is the base of today’s Democrat party is absolutely furious at Beck for outing the self-admitted communist and racist and general purpose loon Van Jones.  Outing is ok only if the target is a closet gay and Republican.  I guess Beck didn’t get the memo.

How do you defend the indefensible?  Why, you edit and cherrypick.  That’s how.  Media Matters claims that Beck bought into a very wacky-looking and wacky-sounding Acorn employee’s admission to murder without checking on the veracity of the story first.  Media Matters took some of Beck’s words out of context, edited some video, and Presto!  Proof Positive that Beck is an idiot and should be ignored.

Morrissey does a good job dismissing Media Matters’ obvious distortion of the facts, but he doesn’t go far enough.  In attempting to smear Glenn Beck, Media Matters is defending ACORN.  Media Matters is defending a criminal enterprise caught red-handed promoting child prostitution, tax fraud, and murder.

Am I hateful if I ask:

- Our unfunded liability for Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid is close to $100 trillion. Is there any way to pay for these programs without bankrupting America?

- We are in so much debt, why spend more borrowed money on cap-and-trade and healthcare programs before we stop the flow of red-ink?

- The stimulus package funneled billions of dollars to ACORN. How does giving billions of dollars to ACORN stimulate the economy?

Glenn Beck will be on vacation this week but when he returns on the 24th he has invited me to come to New York to talk to him on camera about Saul Alinsky, the strategy guru of the Obama era. For the the Hillary-Soros generation of johnny-come-lately radicals and their ACORN footsoldiers,  Alinksy is their Sun-Tzu and his book Rules for Radicals is the field manual  for their struggle. I thought while I’m refreshing my acquaintance with this destructive fellow and re-reading his text, I would share my thoughts with you, serially over the next week.

For this first post, let’s just focus on the dedication of the book — to Satan:

“Lest we forget, an over-the-shoulder acknowledgment to the very first radical:” (Pause there for second. Now continue): “from all our legends, mythology, and history(and who is to know where mythology leaves off and history begins — or which is which), the first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom — Lucifer.”

The petition (from www.iPetitions.com)

Recently an email campaign has been started to get Glenn Beck off the air by targeting his advertisers. Unfortunately, these efforts have succeeded in removing five sponsors with possibly more to follow suit. It’s time we let these companies know what Glenn Beck supporters stand for and what removing their advertising means to us. This petition will be sent to all of Glenn Beck’s sponsors who have pulled their advertising. It will also be sent to current sponsors as they are continuing to be targeted.

The Opposition – What We’re Up Against

Some of the most vile, disgusting, and reprehensible Internet content comes from the political Left.  If you’re new to the Internet, fair warning: Don’t click on the link below if you have a low tolerance for filth.  This sort of thing is nothing new.  Sites like the Daily Kos and MoveOn.org are rife with it.  The Left seems positively enamored with the “F” word and low speech in general.

Not surprisingly, the Left HATES Glenn Beck with unbridled passion.  One example of many is the Wonkette blog.  If vile language offends you, do not click on this link.  The first person to resort to low language in a debate is the first to run out of ideas.  The political Left ran out of ideas many years ago, but it is instructive to take a furtive peek into their twisted world from time to time, though.

Mark Lloyd, "Chief Diversity Officer" of FCC

(From HotAir.com) Mark Lloyd, newly appointed Chief Diversity Officer of the Federal Communications Commission, has called for making private broadcasting companies pay licensing fees equal to their total operating costs to allow public broadcasting outlets to spend the same on their operations as the private companies do.

    Judd Legum at Think Progress did what appears to be a pre-emptive strike against former Bush White House Press Secretary Ari Fleischer claiming that Fleisher was “secretly involved” in the Susan G. Komen Foundations’ strategy on planned parenthood. In fact, according to people I’ve spoken to who are aware of the decision making processes at Komen, Fleischer […]

  • Obama’s failed promises: Nevada edition February 4, 2012
    The good folks at the RNC took a look  at what candidate Obama promised in Nevada during the 2008 presidential campaign … and the record of failure that followed. The result reveals President Obama’s failure to live up to candidate Obama’s promises. In a new video the RNC reminds us of how Obama’s failed promises impact Nevada. Nevada has the highest unemplo […]

    The U.S. Department of Transportation imposed new regulations on airlines Jan. 24 that were supposed to benefit consumers. The rules require all government taxes and fees to be included in advertised fares and allow passengers to withhold payment for 24 hours after making a reservation, if it’s one week before the flight’s departure. Some consumers might be […]

    The people of the United States ordained a Constitution of limited government.  As time passes, the people have more of the “government” and less of the “limited.”  Americans must work at maintaining their freedoms.  Defense of the constitutional freedom of association involved in choosing roommates to share housing illustrates the effort required.  Governme […]

    The liberal majority on the San Antonio City Council and Bexar County Commissioners Court have a habit of ignoring the views of citizens in order to subsidize elite slivers of the population. The San Antonio Tea Party’s objective is to challenge this habit, and ensure every citizen understands how elected officials, local as well as […]

  • The Voter ID Battle January 5, 2012
    Exit polls in Iowa showed that regardless of whom the Republican caucus voters were supporting, their motivation was to beat President Obama. Liberals understand this, and they have launched a “Voter ID” battle to counter the energized conservative voters in the 2012 election. It has become increasingly obvious that liberals are going to do whatever […]

  • Protecting the Party Rather than Protecting American Citizens January 3, 2012
    Last week, several south Texas law enforcement officials protected the Democratic Party and the Obama Administration’s failed border security policies, rather than speak out to protect American citizens. Using a White House roundtable and Democratic forum, these law enforcement officials claimed the U.S.-Mexico border region is not turning into a war zone. O […]
