The Wrestling Party is a raucous

When does desire turn into exploitation?" Bett Williams asks, reflecting on a relationship she had with a seventeen-year-old girl when she was thirty. This is the question that hums beneath The Wrestling Party, whether Bett is exploring the youth-worshiping tendencies of a riot grrrl music -festival or telling the tale of a disabled boy’s passion for Tara Lapinsky or giving advice to "stalker chicks." Bett’s life becomes unhinged in an attempt to finally get it right when she has a crush on Anikka, a nightclub regular with a Swiss/German accent who is sexually submissive (as in TheVillage Voice personals-submissive). Bett’s crush lands her half naked and covered in oil while wrestling a dozen women in her garage. Still unable to win over Anikka, she enlists the help of David, an obnoxious Scottish writer who assists in bringing the relationship with Anikka to its hilarious and startling finale.

The Wrestling Party is a raucous mixture of cultural criticism, erotic tell-all, and in-the-field journalism that reads like a novel you can’t put down. In an era marked by social isolation and paint-by-numbers politics, Bett’s stories offer us a glimpse of who we are beyond the constraints of cool correctness. Like wrestling, conflict in Bett’s -nimble hands is transformed into beauty and violence, into something altogether more complicated and tender.

Crimes Against Liberty: An Indictment of President Barack Obama

Crimes Against Liberty: An Indictment of President Barack Obama


David Limbaugh is the first guy on the right to really dig down into Obama’s politics and personality at the depth where we see not just what we already know, but what we’ve suspected — the Obama Presidency, if not put in check, will threaten our liberties all in the name of Obama’s ivory tower utopian world view.




“Based on his behavior as president, it is clear he truly believes his own hype, for we have discovered that instead of messianic, Obama is acutely, perhaps clinically, narcissistic…. Unless stopped, and reversed, the casualties of Obama’s systematic assault on this nation will be our prosperity, our security, and ultimately, our liberty.”

Ali Velsi of CNN, is a Canadian Shia Muslim of the minority Ismaili sect

CNN's Ali Velshi engaged in moral relativism on Wednesday's Newsroom as he editorialized on the controversial planned mosque near Ground Zero. Velshi worried about the precedent that might be set if a government "assisted" in moving its site: "Timothy McVeigh was raised Catholic. Do we then entertain petitions of moving Catholic churches away from the Oklahoma bombing site?"





The anchor, a Canadian Shia Muslim of the minority Ismaili sect, closed out the 2 pm Eastern hour of Newsroom with his regular "XYZ" commentary, which he devoted to the controversy. Velshi began by stating that it was "an emotional topic, and one I wasn't sure I should bring up in these last few minutes." He then launched into a short explanation of the 1st Amendment's protection of religious liberty, echoing, in a way, his colleague Roland Martin's constitutional defense of the mosque on Tuesday night.

GROUND ZERO MOSQUE: THE REAL ISSUE

GROUND ZERO MOSQUE: THE REAL ISSUE




The proposed mosque near to ground zero is not really a religious institution. It would be -- as many mosques throughout the nation are -- a terrorist recruitment, indoctrination and training center. It is not the worship of Islam that is the problem. It is the efforts to advance Sharia Law with its requirement of Jihad and violence that is the nub of the issue.



There is a global effort to advance Sharia Law and make it the legal system of the world. Most major banks and financial institutions offer Sharia Compliant Funds which have their investments vetted by the most fundamentalist and reactionary of clerics to assure that they advance Sharia Law. Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf, the founder of the proposed Mosque, helps to prepare a Sharia Index which rates countries on their degree of compliance with Sharia Law. In the United Kingdom, many courts have recognized Sharia as the governing law on matters between two Muslims.



Not only is Sharia Law a vicious anti-female code which orders death by stoning, promotes child marriage, decriminalizes abuse of women, and gives wives no rights in divorce, but it also explicitly recognizes the duty of all Muslims to wage Jihad against non-believers and promotes violence to achieve its goals. In this respect, violent Jihad is as inherent in Sharia Law as revolution is in Communist doctrine.



But there are non-Sharia mosques where peaceful and spiritual Muslims worship God in their own way without promoting violence. A soon-to-be published study funded by Frank Gaffney's Center for Security Policy, found that 20% of the mosques in the United States have no taint of Sharia and simply promote peaceful worship. But 80% are filled with violent literature, Sharia teachings, and promotion of Jihad and its inevitable concomitant -- terrorism.



Which brings us to the ground zero mosque. There can be no doubt that any mosque organized and run by Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf will be based on Sharia Law and will serve as local branch office of the pan-Islamic terrorist offensive against the west. That such a facility should be located right next to the place where Jihad achieved its most hideous triumph is unspeakably inappropriate.



President Obama is confusing the issue when he describes it as one of religious freedom. There is broad latitude to worship God as one chooses. But there is none to promote violence and terrorism. The record of involvement of Sharia mosques with the 9-11 attackers and the Ft. Hood massacre shooter is so deep and extensive that it vividly underscores the difference between a religious institution and an organization that promotes terrorism.



Politically, President Obama's defense of the mosque and his efforts to make it a First Amendment issue are incredibly self-destructive. They raise questions about his political sanity. It is hard to believe how tone deaf he must have become to take such a position. He has now embraced two positions that are anathema to two-thirds of all Americans -- the mosque and opposition to Arizona's immigration law. Neither was a controversy that sought him out. He waded into each one voluntarily with flags flying. He had no role in the Arizona law but his lawsuit to invalidate it made it his fight. He does not sit on the New York City Planning Commission, but his endorsement of the mosque puts him squarely in the center of controversy. What is he using for brains these days?



To continue the efforts to battle Sharia Law and the attempts of radical Muslims to use it to destroy our values and the gains of feminism, please follow the work funded by the Center for Security Policy and conducted by David Yerushalmi.

Dick Morris Says Prepare! - Senator Predicts Financial Meltdown
By DICK MORRIS & EILEEN MCGANN

who left the dogs out ? quick video no obama

Al Gore is pissed.......

Al Gore: Hit the streets!



GLENN: Now let's go to Al Gore, who would like you to take to the streets because our government has failed us entirely.

PAT: Yeah. Well, we heard that last week from him that the government has failed us entirely? You remember that?


http://www.glennbeck.com/content/articles/article/198/44405/

GORE: I want to call you to action, but I have to begin by telling you what you know. In all candor the United States government in its entirety, largely because of the opposition in the United States Senate to taking action on clean energy and a solution to the climate crisis, has failed us. America is capable of great things. We always have been and we still are. We have a history of great leadership from our earliest days. The United States Senate has failed to meet the challenge of the climate crisis.



PAT: And, of course, the government has failed in its entirety. So on his blog post he linked the Australian wire service report that tens of thousands of protestors have taken to the streets across Australia to protest on climate change and then he said, across the world, when politicians fail to take action to solve the climate crisis, people are taking action. He added, after excerpting the news reports, it is my hope we see activism like this here in the United States.



GLENN: I wish I could do that.



PAT: So he's calling for people to, tens of thousands of people, I guess, to take to the streets of the United States and start protesting because their government has failed in its entirety.



GLENN: This goes back to Van Jones and ACORN and the unions and everybody else. They are encouraging people to get out into the streets and hold up their signs and be really angry and march and sit down and don't move and all of these things. They are encouraging them, while at the same time tea parties are gathering. And they're demonizing that, except the left has a tendency of getting violent and we've already seen it. That's why it is important that you, as an American citizen, are different. You must stand out. You must be different. This is why I say do not bring any signs to 8/28. Don't bring them. And if you see people with signs, ask them to put them down. And if they won't, I believe they're infiltrators. I'm not expecting infiltrators, quite honestly. I mean, there's enough, believe me. Believe me. There's enough that will



GLENN: Now, with Al Gore, he wants to save the planet and the government has fundamentally failed you. But that's good stuff.



PAT: Yeah, because of the climate crisis, the government has failed you.



GLENN: Hang on just a second. Climate crisis?



PAT: Yeah, there's a climate crisis.



GLENN: Okay.



PAT: On the other hand we just heard, what, 45 minutes ago from Barack Obama that there's no Social Security crisis.



GLENN: I think they have a hard time defining crisis.



PAT: I think they do. Crisis means a little something to them.



GLENN: No financial, no Social Security crisis.



PAT: Right. But there is a climate crisis.



GLENN: Okay, hang on just a second. Because the climate in 100 years will be out of control?



PAT: Or 1,000, whatever.



GLENN: Between 100 and 1,000 years, the climate will be out of control. But within five to ten, Social Security will be out of control.



PAT: But that's not a crisis.



GLENN: That's not a crisis?



PAT: No.



GLENN: I don't understand the word the way they are using it. -- I don't think they know what it means. May I just give you this? Do you know what the fiscal year 2009 agency financial report is called for the Department of Energy? Do you know what they called the report in 2009?



PAT: No.



GLENN: Department of Energy. This is actually from a book that we're releasing here soon. I'm just doing the final edits on it today. The Department of Energy, their annual report called working to save the planet.



PAT: Wow.



GLENN: That's the Department of Energy. Is that a little strange? That's their new goal?



PAT: Because the climate is in crisis, Glenn. The planet, because of our SUVs, the planet is in crisis.



GLENN: Do you drive an SUV?



PAT: Of course, but that's because I have to get from Point A to Point B to save the planet.



GLENN: Yeah, but if I can't get to Point A to point B in order to



PAT: You can walk because you're not you're not fighting to save the planet. You simply are focused on destroying the planet.



GLENN: Okay. But you just take the SUV then and you don't burn up like a bunch of jet fuel to go places, do you?



PAT: Well, I plant trees in Indonesia.



GLENN: You what?



PAT: I plant trees in Indonesia.



GLENN: You plant trees?



PAT: Trees.



GLENN: Okay, that's good.



PAT: That offsets the planet killing carbon dioxide that's coming out of my SUVs.



GLENN: That offsets?



PAT: That offsets the SUVs.



GLENN: Why don't you just stop using the plane?



PAT: Because I must, as I said if you'd listen to me, I must get from Point A to Point B to save the planet.



GLENN: How about using just technology? For instance, I mean, there's like video conferencing.



PAT: Do you know how much CO2 computers use?



GLENN: There's holographic images now that you can put in. It's like you're in the room.



PAT: Again you're expending energy.



GLENN: I understand that, but you're expending much less energy than you would on the Gulfstream.



PAT: That's why I plant the trees in Indonesia.



GLENN: Instead of planting the trees, because I think you have to use computers to be able to transfer funds to Indonesia.



PAT: Well, that's what I'm saying. I must, I must save the planet. And see, in all of my efforts to save the planet, I have to expend some energy. That's why I can't, I can't abide these hypocrites like yourself who drives around in his SUV just to get his fat but from Point A to Point B.



GLENN: But see, that doesn't make me a hypocrite because I don't believe in global warming.



PAT: But you are telling me I shouldn't be using my SUV.



GLENN: Well, because you are telling me I shouldn't use my SUV.



PAT: That's because you're not saving the planet. The Earth has a fever, Glenn.



GLENN: Does it seem like this might be a circular argument?



PAT: It does.



GLENN: Just a little bit?

Appleseed Project

about The Appleseed Project




The Appleseed Project non-profit organization dedicated to teaching every American, regardless of race, religion, gender, sexuality, national origin, or ideology our shared heritage and history as well as traditional rifle marksmanship skills. Our volunteer instructors travel across the country teaching those who attend about the difficult choices, the heroic actions, and the sacrifices that the Founders made on behalf of modern Americans, all of whom are their “progeny.”




Our heritage program vividly portrays the Battles of Lexington and Concord with the kind of care and immediacy that is absent from most formal schooling. Modern listeners are confronted with the danger, the fear, and the heartbreaking separations that arose out of the choices made on April 19th, 1775. They are also reminded of the marksmanship skills and masterful organization that ultimately helped set the colonists on the path to success. Those who attend gain a better understanding of the fundamental choices faced by our ancestors as they began to set the stage for the nation we now enjoy.

NBC news wants to build the mosque at Ground Zero

Looks like NBC is the only news media that's seems to be promoting the ideal of building
the mosque at ground zero.

this smells like the George Soros propaganda machine at work with their left leaning comrades at NBC and MSnbc.

what a bunch of shitheads

 Bill O'Reily talked about this issue on Fox news.

My name is Terry Myers and I am running for Congress.

My name is Terry Myers and I am running for Congress.


About A brief word from Terry Myers




My name is Terry Myers and I am running for Congress. I am running for Congress in District 7 because I am not satisfied with Congressman Grijalva. In the eight years he has represented us; he has voted to strip the elderly of their health care and voted to raise taxes in the midst of the greatest recession since the great Depression eighty years ago. Now he is urging a boycott of Arizona businesses because we want to seal the border against drug dealers and dangerous criminals.

THE TEA PARTY RESCUES AMERICA by Dick Morris

THE TEA PARTY RESCUES AMERICA







For a decade, the left owned the streets. Subsidized by George Soros and energized by the Clinton impeachment in the 90s and the Iraq War since, it dominated the Internet and grass roots campaigning. Michael Moore's movies - however misguided - enthused their ranks and catalyzed their efforts. ACORN worked to commit massive voter fraud in the guise of stimulating voter turnout and the New Black Panthers worked to intimidate those with whom they disagreed. President Barack Obama was the result.



Now, finally, conservatives are answering with their own grass roots efforts in the Tea Party movement. Tea Party activists are bringing the battle to stop big government spending and taxes to the streets and parks of America.



And its working! The Tea Party movement, working closely with Americans for Prosperity (AFP), mobilized people against the Obamacare proposal and, in the end, will cost the Democrats their Congressional majorities - a fitting price for defying the will of the people.



Democrats are so threatened that they are demonizing the Tea Party as eccentric, extreme and racist. Speaker Pelosi compared them to the Nazis. These are the cries of those about to lose an election - big time!



Now a new film, The Tea Party Movie, shows the anatomy of the group and explains its motivations. With almost no funding or paid staff and all decisions made at the local level, the Tea Party people are reshaping American politics. A bottom-up movement, they are restoring values to our politics.



The film, sometimes moving, sometimes funny, and always interesting is available online at http://www.teapartymovie.com. Do yourself a favor and watch it!



And, on September 12th, pack your bags and migrate to Sacramento, St. Louis, or Washington DC for the three mega-rallies sponsored by the Tea Party folks. Its time to get out of the grandstands and onto the playing field. We need a massive show of participation and enthusiasm to kick-off, animate, and catalyze the effort to throw the big spending socialists out of Congress in November! Go to http://teapartypatriots.org/Recycle/Recycle.aspx to learn more about the rallies. Organize your friends and neighbors to go and attend!



The Tea Party is not only electing Republicans, it is cleansing them. Their victories in intra-party contests in Utah, Colorado, Nevada, and South Carolina shows that they are no happier with big spending Republicans than with Democrats of a similar persuasion. Many worried that the Tea Party would be a third party movement, splitting the vote and electing the Democrats. No way. Instead, they are winning their primaries and purifying the Party.


What a great time to be alive and what a wonderful group to support!

Glenn Beck: 8 cents

Glenn Beck: 8 cents





http://www.glennbeck.com/content/articles/article/198/44300/







GLENN: I want to tell you, and a little later I'm going to get into the full details about the Hindenburg Omen.

The Hindenburg Omen, that doesn't sound good. It happened on Friday and it's, it's an economic thing, says that there's a 77% chance of a crash coming our way in the next 40 days. There's trouble in the Middle East. Unemployment now is at the highest I think it's ever been for those who are 16 to 24 years old. We're talking now a lost generation. There's the beginnings of civil unrest. The debt is unsustainable. The debt is so large now that next year we could have people say, I'm not going to buy your debt anymore, I don't believe America is serious. We have problems on our border that now include Hezbollah. We have a sheriff down on our border who says we've got to abandon this town. We have to abandon an American town! And yet, the president does nothing. We have enemies within the gates. We have an attack on capitalism. There's a billboard in Phoenix, Arizona, that says we don't have a legal problem; we have a capitalism problem: We have attack on freedom. We have attack on our own energy sources. You talk to anybody in the oil industry, in Houston, in the climate summit gulf, anybody, and they will tell you there's no new drilling permits even being issued. Our military is stretched too thin and our religion is under attack. Now, you tell me is an election going to solve these problems? Do you really think getting the Republicans to take over the House is the answer to solve these problems? Maybe it delays some of it and it's important, but is that the answer? I don't know how anyone can say yes. I don't know how anybody can say, well, by not enforcing the laws, by making sure that we bail out all of the states, that we give our union buddies all of these extra favors, by going into more socialism, by going into more debt that that is the solution. There's only one solution, only one. One. And if we don't turn to him pretty soon, we're in trouble. They have told people on the steps of the Supreme Court that they cannot pray there. They have told students on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial they can't sing the National Anthem there. And last week I was told by the Kennedy Center that we could not pray there. We were told by the Kennedy Center in no uncertain terms that we could hold our event there, sure we had a contract. But they weren't told that we were going to have an opening prayer. The program is has the word divine in it, our divine destiny. We couldn't pray at the Kennedy Center. So my attorneys came to me and said, Glenn, are you willing to compromise on it? And I said, I sure am. You tell them that not only will I do an opening prayer, I'll do a closing prayer, and the entire program may be a prayer. In fact, take this down. It is a night of prayer. You'll see if you are lucky enough to get a ticket to the Kennedy Center, and they are not for sale. You will see in the program how I described it. I described it that way. So they could print that in their program at the Kennedy Center which they insisted on having after they told us we couldn't pray. I said, let me dictate this one. Friday night I was supposed to have a meeting today at 1:00 with their attorneys and I had already talked to my attorneys. Zero compromise. We asked them, where is that in your I didn't see that in your rules and regulations. "It's not written down." No prayer at a federally funded building.







Friday night I think they got a hold of Common Sense. They alerted me Friday night that they will allow prayer to happen on the stage of the Kennedy Center. I told them, thank you so much for your graciousness. I appreciate the scrap from the table. America, our religion and our faith is under attack and whether people care to realize it or not, it is. I went down to West Palm on Friday and I had some meetings with these very wealthy individuals and I asked them for their support of the Special Operations Warrior Foundation. Now, I don't need any more I don't need any more money to be able to cover the cost for this event. It's been paid for. I think it's been paid for in double, at least where it stands right now. This is for the this is for the guys who are fighting and dying for us. The Special Operations Warrior Foundation, this started on the trip over to Iran during the Iranian hostage crisis. And the guys on the helicopter all looked at each other, all special forces, they looked at each other and said, if you die, I'll take care of your family; if I die, will you take care of mine. And they promised each other that, yes, they would. Well, the helicopters blew up in the desert and we lost good men trying to save American citizens from a theocracy, one that is still in existence and stoning people because they're homosexual.



We have now 500 families to take care of, and the number is growing every day, 500 families. This particular organization, they take care of their schooling. They call them on their birthdays. If there's a problem with one of them in school, they could be in the fourth grade and they lost their dad. One of their brothers that was part of the force where Dad was lost gets onto a plane and flies into town and finds out from the son what's going on, what's happening to your grades. These guys honor their commitment.





So I was sitting having dinner with a group of wealthy individuals and I asked them, can you write a check? And many of them did. When I got onto the plane, I asked also what had come in during the week and Joe was there on the plane with me and he said, well, Glenn, a TV viewer just out of the blue just wrote us a check, and I want to show it to you. Here's a check for $25,000, just from a, just a viewer that just said, I want to write a check. $25,000, from their personal account. And he was going on and on about all these people who are starting to step to the plate. I said, what else did we get? And he said, well, we also got a letter in and the person said, I can't make it because I can't afford to come, but I believe in our special forces and I believe in what you're doing. And honor is the key. I wish I could come, but I can't but I wanted to show my support and this is all I could afford. In the envelope was a baggy, and this is not from a child. 8 cents, 8 pennies. I've tried to get my arms around someone as they went into their change drawer and all they had were eight pennies. I tried to get my arms around somebody who then went to the kitchen and put it in a Ziploc baggy, a used one, and then put it in an envelope. I'm replacing those eight pennies myself and I'm keeping these eight cents and putting them in my pocket as a reminder. I don't know. I remember filling up my gas tank and having to count it out in change. I remember the days that, you know, my kids didn't think that my gas tank held more than $5.27. This to me is the epitome of our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor. Have you is there anything in your life that you would give it all? Is there anything to you that is so important to you that you would go into your change drawer and count out your last eight pennies and mail them? I ask you this isn't for 8/28 because like I said, it's all paid for. This is for the guys who gave their last full measure of life for the freedom that we have taken for granted, gave their last full measure of life for the things that we didn't realize how fragile they were. Would you do me the honor of presenting the Special Operations Warrior Foundation on 8/28 with a very large check, even if it comes in 8 cents at a time. Would you go to GlennBeck.com/828. If you haven't made a donation, these are the last two weeks. Even if it's $1, $10, $25,000 or your last 8 cents. GlennBeck.com/828 for the Special Operations Warrior Foundation.

Competition Breeds Success II , in Harlem school district

Competition Breeds Success II
This morning, I got an e-mail that provides another example of how private schools tend to beat the government-union monopoly.

Dear John:

The annual state test results were just announced, and we have exciting news to share!

In eighth grade math, Harlem Village Academywas the highest performing school in the state of New York. With 100% proficiency for the third straight year, we outperformed the city (46%), state (55%), Harlem (36%), Scarsdale (80%) and Chappaqua (91%).

In eighth grade English, we were the highest performing of all schools in Harlem.

That came to me from Deborah Kenny, another entrepreneur who runs an outstanding school in Harlem.

Glenn Beck: Constitution a niche?

Glenn Beck: Constitution a 'niche'?
August 12, 2010


GLENN: This is from the Center For American Progress. The Center For American Progress has education cuts. We started the hour telling you about how the press is ‑‑ the press is just being, it's being gutted. I told you about the Internet today and free press and what's happening with free press and the Internet and how that is all about to change. We told you about the economic strife that is headed our way. I mean, look out, gang. You know, we showed you the mass graves here. There's something bad happening in the Middle East. There's just a lot of things that are going on, civil unrest that is beginning. Tonight on television I'm going to do two things. I want to show you the history of the Weimar Republic and specifically, specifically how it ties into what happened in Atlanta yesterday and with the Fed and what is to come. Learn from history, and you will see what is about to come our way.

The second half of the show is going after the Center of American progress and their new report on education. Now, we all know that education cuts have to be made but they don't need to be done at the federal level. They need to be done at the state level. Education needs to be controlled by the states, not the federal government. Abolish the Department of Education and let the states do it. And let the states negotiate their way out with these unions. Period. The Center For American Progress has another idea. They would like to start their cuts. They're not as broad as mine, of course. They would like to develop and cut the narrow low‑impact programs from the Department of Education. One of these low impact and narrow almost niche programs include academies for American history and civics. This is a program which provide workshops for teachers on American history. We should probably cut that. Then we the people needs to be cut. This is a program for the center for civic education to instruct students in the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights.

PAT: Yeah, what do they need to know that for? That's old. That's an old document.

GLENN: And then there's this one. Excellence in economic education. This is a grant designed to promote economic and financial literacy among K to 12 students. So let's see if we have this right. They want to cut programs in American education, in Constitution, and financial literacy. That sounds good. That sounds like a good, good plan.

PAT: That's almost as good as the plans in Arizona. They had that ‑‑ there was a big uproar. Not only did they do the immigration law but at the same time almost the legislature, they passed a law that banned education classes in Arizona to promote the overthrow of the United States government, right? Remember that? Or, or promote resentment toward a race or class of people because they had these ethnic studies in Arizona that were really focused on race‑baiting, on America's the enemy, all of those kinds of things and people went crazy: How can you cut out their ethics studies? What kind of racism is that? Well, the law apparently doesn't prohibit these classes as long as they are open to all students and don't promote ethnic resentment or solidarity. But Arizona's superintendent of public instruction, Tom Horne says the basic theme of the Mexican‑American studies program in Arizona is that Latino students were and continue to be victims of a racist American society driven by the interests of the middle and upper class whites. Among the goals listed for the Mexican‑American studies are... social justice, Latino critical race pedagogy, and they have pictures in the classroom showing the walls decorated with heroes like Fidel Castro and Che Guevara. Not a problem. Not a problem. So eliminating American history ‑‑

GLENN: I don't think there's a problem there.

PAT: ‑‑ eliminate Constitution and ‑‑

GLENN: Financial.

PAT: Financial, literacy.

GLENN: Right.

PAT: And then bring in Fidel Castro, Che Guevara and tell everybody that the whites are the problem and they are racist.

GLENN: Okay. So America, ask yourself these ‑‑ ask yourself this question. With as corrupt as our government is right now, and it is wildly corrupt ‑‑ and this isn't a Republican thing ‑‑ or, I mean, a Democrat thing. Trent Lott. Last thing we need is a bunch of Jim DeMints around there. We need to coopt them. I mean, they are about power. That's all they are about, power. And the power in Washington must be reduced, must. Not reduced. The power in Washington must be restored to its original power. How are you going to do that? How are you going to do that? How are you going to solve the financial crisis when you have Cass Sunstein and a bill that once Obama ‑‑ let's just say Obama comes in and he abolishes ‑‑ or I mean, a Republican Democrat ‑‑ I mean, a Republican congressman and it's all Republican utopia. Do you really think they are going to reverse the financial reform package? No. They will use it to their advantage. And it will continue to grow. So how are you going to, how are you going to change that? How are you going to change ethics in Washington? How are you going to change the banking problem and the ethics in banking and the ethics in business? How are you going to repair with cries of racism? And it happened with George Bush and it's happening with Barack Obama. How are you going to repair the illegal immigration problem? How are you going to repair the healthcare problem that we have? We all admit that our healthcare system is broken. It's broken. Now, how are you going to repair that? With the situation that we have with politics? How are you going to fight and keep your children when you are so busy fighting on all other fronts, when you have this nonsense being taught in schools? How are you going to fight the battle that is in your church now with social justice and collective salvation? Most people in churches aren't even aware of it now. They are not even aware of it. There are some preachers that don't even know.

I talk to some people that watch these trends. They said last election people that should know had no idea what was happening in their churches. How are you going to do that? It's the same question that people asked in the 1760s. How would you possibly separate from Britain? You can't. You can't. You can't defeat them. You can't win against them. They hold all the cards. You can't do it. The awakening that led people to understand that they have direct access to inspiration and the power of God, direct access. Not through anybody, not through any church. Direct access. And if the people restore themselves, this is 1760, 1740s they are saying this. If the American people would restore themselves to God, it will all work out. On 8/27, make sure you find out all the information at GlennBeck.com. 8/27, divine destiny at the Kennedy Center for the performing arts. It is a night of God. It is a night of how religion plays a role in the governance of this country. It's a separation of church and state. Religion and God plays a role in the individual life and then you don't need very much government because we self‑govern. We will take the words of the preachers of the 1740s to 1770 and show you what lines from sermons were taken out and used as foundation of this country and then we have members from, there's a rabbi that's going to be speaking, there is an evangelical that's going to be speaking, there's members of many faiths that are going to take those words from those sermons and translate them into today's world. There will be things that have never happened before at the Kennedy Center, I understand. We're going to talk about, turn your life over to God. That's it. Let Him work it out. Let Him work it out. And there's a difference. I want to make sure you understand this. It doesn't mean you do nothing. God helps those who help themselves, but you have to ‑‑ how did you put that just a little while ago, Pat?

PAT: Pray as if everything depends on God.

GLENN: Yes.

PAT: Act as if everything depends on you.

GLENN: Act as if everything depends on you. That's the way it is. Tickets are going to be extraordinarily limited. Right now if you go to the Kennedy Center, it will be first come first serve. There are 2500 seats but a lot of those are going to be taken up by people that I don't want to announce because it will just drive people crazy and there's no reason to do that. You’ll find out who they are and I'll tell you on 8/27. This is kind of an appetizer for 8/28. And then buckle up, gang, because at the feet of the Lincoln Memorial at 10:00 two weeks from Saturday, miracles happen. Miracles happen. And not on the stage but with the number of people, whether it's 200,000 or 20,000. Miracles will happen in the crowd around the reflecting pool at the Lincoln Memorial. Join me there. 8/28.
