We need people like Beck and Palin to restore honor to our nation.

What good was actually done today?
Why would Beck and Palin need the money poor people need to scrap together? To support them in what? They are rich, are they not? What are they using this money for?

who is this hypocrite clown who professes to represent Americans?
Furthermore on a day that was meant to commerate the civil rights movement?
nothing except generalizations from Glenn at the rally and offered nothing substantial in terms of improvement.

Did ya' miss, during the 3 hour event, all the references to civil rights; the the MLK dream; and how people should live it in order to bring HONOR to this country?

Time will tell.

The event was free. It was requested that people make donations to the 'Special Operations Warrior Foundation'. info here It is a charitable group that provides college money and financial aid to the children of those who died serving our country in the military. 5 million dollars were raised this weekend because of the event. All of it went to the charity. But again - the event itself was FREE.

It seems that the money was first taken by Beck and used to cover the expenses of the rally and what he had left over actually went to the troops.

Yup. Glenn does NOT represent Americans. Yet many are buying his BS and HIS ORDERS on HOW PEOPLE SHOULD LIVE IN ORDER TO BRING HONOUR TO THIS COUNTRY?
Seems you bought it lock stock and barrel. Cheers to continued slavery.

He has a right to express how he feels and how he thinks people could bring honor to this country. He has a right to tell people what he thinks. That's very different than Obama and his ilk FORCING people, through legislation, to live as they decide.
Obviously you don't know me at all. I suggest you check out the BTS spirituality forum and check out my thread there. Enjoy eating crow.

OF COURSE. That's how it works everywhere. All charities do that. No charity has 100% of the money going to what the money is being raised for. There ARE expenses. They have to be paid. That's kind of a 'duh' .. ya' know??
