Like a maddened woodpecker tap-tap-tapping on a tree - outside of the president's window - the "great and powerful " Glenn Beck has pestered the administration. In response, he has been both lauded and blamed for the recent flap over firing (throwing under the bus?) of Ms. Sherrod.
The left-wing media (owned by TPTB or their agents) has been frantic in finding strange new ways to blame Glenn for the firing. However, since the source of the original denunciation was
Breitbart.com, not GB, it doth stink.
(The day of the firing, GB defended Ms. Sherrod, and pointed out that someone took her comments out of context, and did not follow "due process" - something dictatorships do.)
From the reports, it is evident that "someone" high up in the food chain deemed it a national issue of greatest importance (three separate phone calls to her, while in transit) that she be fired
{And exposing their base fear that she would be a topic on GB's show...} - and that the reactionary NAACP condemn her "racist" remarks. But after a resounding backtracking in the "official" media
(all error blamed on Fox news and other "conservative" "racist" "extremist" commentators), Vilsack, the USDA official, has been tossed under the bus to protect the administration.
Coincidentally, the LIVE apology was done at FIVE PM, so as to block part of GB's live broadcast.
(Oh, yeah, we bad, says the gubmint).
Frankly, I do not agree 100% with GB's agenda or philosophy, but the tail wagging the dog show is extremely entertaining.
What we have learned, thanks to Glenn:
[] The myriad details of the progressives / collectivists / communists / socialists / liberals step by step action to destroy America. (I learned about Woodrow Wilson and other slimy actors - including Teddy Roosevelt (surprise!).)
[] The destruction of historical knowledge from three generations of Americans.
(Of which I can add my $0.02, on various topics.)
[] The communist / collectivist / Mao loving / progressive philosophical foundation of Obama, his staff and appointees.
What Glenn has yet to express:
[] Why we must oppose the collectivists with all vigor! (The Communist Manifesto spells it out : their goal is to abolish private property ownership. The USCON specifically protects private property ownership. There can be no "peaceful co-existence" between the two. And based on the record, the communists won, in 1935.)
[] That the true nature of the collectivists is slavery and piracy. Slavery as in compulsory labor for the benefit of another (aka "Social justice","distributive justice"). And piracy as in taking from one, by threat, duress and coercion of government, and giving to another (via expropriative taxation to "share the wealth").
[] The most powerful enemy of America is usury, and that the usurer / collectivist alliance has controlled America since the late 19th century.(Since usurers are also predators, seeking our private property, it is not surprising that they ally themselves with collectivists.)
Failure to fully express these ideas may be a lapse on his part, or that he feels the audience is not yet ready to "connect the dots".
But when you hear the Russian mass media laud the American administration and denounce the American people, you have to realize that something has turned upside down. Let's not forget that the People's Republic of China (socialist, not communist) is our biggest creditor, a fact that should be disquieting at the least.
The demise of the "USSR" did not mean that communism was destroyed. In fact, the USSR never achieved communism - only socialism. {Technically speaking, no "Communist" government has yet achieved communism. They all only claim to have achieved socialism.} The fact that the USA had transmuted into the United Socialist States of America, starting in 1935, is becoming more and more evident. But the impending collapse is part of the deliberate plan to eradicate that pesky USCON, and allow for the emergence of the
People's Democratic Socialist Republic of America... with "human rights" for all, and individual rights for none.
{New Socialist Men cannot absolutely own themselves, their labor, or that which they acquire by that labor. It is the "right" of the Collective State to bestow and withdraw.}
If you are comfortable with government bestowing all rights
(and withdrawing them - capriciously, as in Ms. Sherrod's case) instead of a government protecting your Creator's endowment, then you can celebrate, for America, as we know it, is on life support.
I would not take bets on her survival past 2012. But I am an optimist. (Sarcasm flag off)
