JohnBirchSociety Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 Don't know if this has been put up yet, but hopefully there will be some interested.Glenn Beck - Current Events & Politics - WE Surround ThemI'm very interested, and part of it. Good post.I'm going to make a blunt prediction about it:To the degree the idea is successful or has a positive impact against the global Marxist conspiracy (yes, that's what we face); Mr. Beck will have great opposition. And, if there is REAL impact, he'll find himself of the air very, very quickly... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
talisyn Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 But he's on Fox News, doesn't that give him more protection? I like Glenn Beck, even though we disagree on, oh, a whole bunch of stuff Good to see him taking a stand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the Democrats in charge we can easily expect the "fiarness doctrine" to be promoted so Glenn Beck and other conservatives will be silinced by the Reid and Pelosi Politburo.

talisyn Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 Oh come on people, Obama is not the antichrist or even the antirepublican. He is actively trying to work with reps, and who is not cooperating? Who does not want to work together? Yeah that's what I thought lol. Out of all presidents I've seen in the past 37 years or so Pres. Obama seems to be the only one who actually wants America to be the best, instead of maintaining the status quo. No, wait, Reagan also was like that too. Remember? There is no marxist revolution. What there seems to be is a bunch of people bitter that all a 2 term rep president and 6 years of rep controlled congress managed to achieve is the obliteration of capitalism. Politics is a cycle. We had 8 years of a rep president. We will have 4-8 years of a dem president. I guarantee we will have a rep or dem president in 4-8 years. I give kudos to Glenn Beck for making sure his fellow reps are not forgotten, but seeing as it's merely 4 weeks into the new term people need to get a grip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiannan Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 The Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae) and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac) are the two dominant entities in the secondary residential mortgage markets of the United States. They are an important and prominent part of a larger mosaic of extensive efforts by governments at all levels to encourage the production and consumption of housing.Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are a unique part of this effort. Though they appear to be "normal" corporations, each with shares that trade on the New York Stock Exchange, they in fact have federal government origins and entanglements that make them quite special. Their specialness is a double-edged sword, however. On one side, they cause interest rates on many residential mortgages to be lower than would otherwise be the case; on the other, their size and mode of operation have created a significant contingent liability for the federal government and, ultimately, for taxpayers. In addition, their size and prominence has recently led to concerns about the larger consequences for the U.S. economy if either were to experience financial difficulties. Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and Housing Finance: Why True Privatization Is Good Public PolicyOctober 7, 2004Policy Analysis no. 528I would like to point out the date this insightful article was published by a right wing organization.Too bad that the infotainment industry (sorry, the United States news stations not including Fox) would never point out that conservatives were questioning this years ago and liberals were making accusations against them for doing so.

prisonchaplain Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 President Obama is no antichrist or antirepublican. And, he's shown more moderation than I expected. On the other hand, I remain concerned about the fairness doctrine. His apparent intention to gerimander the 2010 census is most alarming. And, at the end of the day, he's vastly expanding government spending and debt, with little regard for efficiency or effectiveness. He's double the war spending of the last 10 years in a manner of weeks. So, to blame republicans for not going along lock-step in this new era of cooperation is a bit absurd. The Opposition is supposed to question, supposed to limit damage, suppose raise alarms. Democrats were not completely silent these last 8 years, why should republicans just roll over now?

LittleWyvern Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 So, to blame republicans for not going along lock-step in this new era of cooperation is a bit absurd. The Opposition is supposed to question, supposed to limit damage, suppose raise alarms. Democrats were not completely silent these last 8 years, why should republicans just roll over now?You're assuming a false dilemma. The minority party doesn't have to 100% agree with everything ("roll over," as you call it) in order to show at least a spirit of cooperation, nor do they have to "go along lock-step" with everything the majority party wants. I think the problem is that both parties are either afraid or simply don't want to talk to the other party. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hemidakota Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 Can 22-states succeed from the Union? After seeing what is in that 1100 page stimulus package that a few House of representative are complaining, I would be hedging that this country in the next decade is heading for trouble.

john doe Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 I don't believe that Obama is any form of an anti-Christ, but it is laughable when someone says he wants to work with the opposition. His own words not a week into his administration said it all. To paraphrase: "I don't need your support or approval, I won". Those are not the words of a person who wants to work with those who disagree with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hemidakota Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 (edited) Obama is only puppet for those who wish to control our destiny. I think it is wise for all of us to read what was in the Stimulus Package. Some states are already bulking at the Government and may close some federal offices within their own states. Something more sinister than him is a foot here and we should not be idling ourselves in believing everything is going to be ok. I am currently looking for the 1500 plus PDf file to gauge the content. LATE EDIT: nothing will be hide anymore from prying eyes for the average citizen. For the righteous, they will see through the rhetoric and politics for the end result. Edited February 17, 2009 by Hemidakota Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hemidakota Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 Here is the link: ReadTheStimulus.orgThe reasoning behind this is the obscured language that is the telling signs of complete nationalism and federal control more than ever. For me, if this is correct, the democratic party has reached it usual end as a party. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moksha Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 7. I work hard for what I have and I will share it with who I want to. Government cannot force me to be charitable. Sounds like it has song potential:Its my money and I can horde if I want toHorde if I want to...I don't want to sharemy money with you... 8. It is not un-American for me to disagree with authority or to share my personal opinion. Best not to share this sentiment in Church. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Islander Posted February 18, 2009 Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 Since when politicians became economists? The schism between the political arena and the economic reality is widening and Congress seems to have made up their mind about the spending. It is really interesting how these congressmen, many of whom NEVER truly held a REAL job, think they know what needs to be done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john doe Posted February 18, 2009 Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 Best not to share this sentiment in Church. Why not? All the statements I've seen from church leaders have told us to be active in our communities and politics. Questioning politicians and political leaders and making them accountable to us is completely American and encouraged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bookmeister Posted February 18, 2009 Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 And the so-called Fairness Doctrine will never be put into place...especially by those of a more liberal bent. Why, you might ask? Because they'd have to let the NRA advertise on the major networks! And that ain't never gonna happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john doe Posted February 18, 2009 Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 Oh, the NRA will be outlawed as a hate group. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
