Whoa, is Glenn Beck actually trolling us? We must be getting to him. Much like The Daily Show. 
Oh, and it's "you're", not "your"

Huh? What happened? Was Mr. Beck here cleared of his rape/murder charges? I didn't even know there was a trial.
Oh, you mean his rally in Washington DC yesterday? From the looks of it, Beck's event yesterday should've been called Restoring Boredom
P.S.- I've reported the opening post
Oh, you mean his rally in Washington DC yesterday? From the looks of it, Beck's event yesterday should've been called Restoring BoredomQuote:The Glenn Beck fans on my subway car after today’s rally were a subdued bunch. They didn’t seem energized by having spent time with their idol and many thousands of fellow fans. Why not?
“It was kind of boring,” said one. “It wasn’t what I expected,” said another. “It was good,” one said with an unenthusiastic shrug. “He had some good speakers.” One recalled someone sitting near them grumbling, “I didn’t come all this way for an awards ceremony.”
Not the reaction you’re going for when you’ve declared your intention of fundamentally transforming the country and sparking a Great Awakening that will turn the country back to God.

Can someone tell me in what way America has lost its honour? Just wondering what these protesters are on about again.

No, you can't accept your side has been vanquished. You can hide here in your little delusional bubble for now, but you are, to borrow a phrase from the Marxists, on the wrong side of history. When November comes, you'll see the truth.

We elected "one of them". A few people aren't happy about that.

If you really believe that, then you are so out of touch with reality that it's almost sad.
Didn't your side say the same stuff when Scott Brown was elected? How'd that turn out for you?

"My side" has been vanquished? You realize I'm a Republican, right? The only thing I do differently is think instead of what's thrown at me by news outlets.

It's "grammar" actually.

They also want America to return to something like from "Leave It To Beaver". That's the "good old days" they long for. Small problem: It never existed, it was a TV show. It's sort of a collective "memory" about how good they had when they were kids that probably has very little basis (if any) in fact.

Beck's I Had A Bad Dream speech... why does this remind me of a certain other person's rallies back in the 30's and 40's?

So Glenn, did you enjoy the sound of the boots? That's something communists would do!
It should also be pointed out that all of the fascist movements in Europe in the early 1920's and 30's started as grassroots opposition to the liberal democratic governments that existed in their respective countries (Spain, Italy, Germany, etc). Government was the enemy to the fascists, until they took over, then it became good. You can see that perfectly exemplified with any American Conservative's rants about government. Something is bad when Obama does it but perfectly fine when Bush did it.

Reading more about this rally and am just rolling my eyes at the things I see and read, like this t-shirt...
Are you kidding me? At times there are real worrying parallels with Middle East countries who rule with an iron fist because of extreme religious beliefs. Quite easily a large part of America Right are the poster child for a Christian version of Iran.

What amazes me is how many people can be fooled by people like Beck and Palin. P.T. Barnum was right: there's a sucker born every minute.
BTW, I wonder how many people who support Beck know that he's a Mormon? You know that 'un-Christian,' immoral, and outright blasphemous religion that believes that Jesus wasn't god and this guy named Joseph Smith carried the new message?
I bet not very many since he infrequently advertisers this.
And just for the heck of it:

Since this appears to be trolling, I'm going to lock this. If anyone wishes to start a new thread on Glenn's rally, please be civil about it.
