Glenn Beck CPAC Keynote Address

Glenn Beck at CPAC

I watched the video of Glenn Beck's speech at the recent CPAC conference and thought it was outstanding. Here's a link to it:

I think Mr. Beck has come into his own at last. Mr. Beck is a commentator rather than a politician himself but I think that if he did decide to run for a political office that he would have a strong following. I'm not sure that it would be a good thing though in that at this point he has great value as a voice for a lot of Americans and a 'conscience' of both political parties. Well, 'conscience' may be too strong of a word as I don't believe that either party has any conscience at all and are both morally bankrupt.
Of course, he was targeted by both parties' favored lap-dog pundits. Jon Stewart had this to say about Mr. Beck's speech:



Pretty typical Liberal/Progressive revisionist stuff. By the way, Mr. Stewart, progressives (communists) did not start the Libraries, Benjamin Franklin did. I believe Mr. Franklin would be surprised indeed to find himself labeled a communist.

And then there was Rush Limbaugh, the paid political pundit of the Republican Party:



What comes through to me from listening to both of these gentlemen is that Mr. Beck hit the nail squarely on the head and both parties are in 'damage-control' mode. Covering their nether-quarters with anything that comes easily to hand which, generally speaking, isn't much more than trying to 'out-shout' Glenn Beck, distract the American people by causing a general glee amongst us at seeing the fight develop. Americans are, after all, easily distracted by a fight. They also realize that we tend to tune things out when it comes to bombast and Pseudo-intelligence.
We do have a history of not paying attention when it comes to that and if we don't pay attention at this stage, then we're going to lose what freedom remains to us. The truth that Mr. Beck brought to light is that both parties are working together for the destruction of everything America stands for and the removal of the Constitution and inherited rights of all Americans.

In short, the Glenn Beck speech at the CPAC conference was a great catalyst and should be watched, and paid attention to. Personally, I agree with Glenn Beck and have been thinking the same things for a long time. It's nice that someone with a voice and a talent for public-speaking is actually able to articulate this.

Last, here's another paid voice of the 1-party-by-2-means system, Mark Levin:

The only difference between the Communists and Republicans as far as I can see, is 'style.'

That's my take on the matter, what's yours?©TexasFred2/2010
