These really are suspicious relationships. Anyone who follows this money trail can see that.

if this passes, so the rich can indeed get richer, the rest of us will have to pay more for our electricity. they are telling us this right to our face!

if you are an average american, you should be getting really mad.

THROW THESE BUMS OUT.
Yes, throw these bums out. No more career politicians, no more incumbents. We've had enough of their kind of transparency, their double speak, their deceptive schemery. Obama's tactics are frightening and sobering enough to take one's breath away, and nothing seems to be stopping him and his bunch from implementing this gigantic plan for total control. We are just the pawns, the drones to support them, the "cash cows", if you will. The people have been asleep at the switch, but they are waking up now. Maybe it's not too late.

No, he is too emotional about this. He is actually sickened by it.
As far as the bad publicity, that is a big joke because nobody is talking about this but him.
Why isn't this being discussed by anybody else? We will all be affected and nobody thinks this is important?
All of these people gathered together and standing to make trillions while we are at their mercy.
Most of us can't even understand what is going on so who can stop them?
They have set out to turn Glenn Beck into a nutcase so he will not be believed and I want to know if anybody knows what will happen to US when this whole thing goes down???
How will this affect us?
Any ideas?

THROW THESE BUMS OUT.
They ALL gotta go!

It's only looking more and more like the greatest scandal in global history.

The ties and associations of this administration, along with that of the Progressive elitists fully intend some purging and pillaging and NOW is the time. They intend to do so on a global scale......starts now with "reforms" needed to achieve the "fundamental transformation" of America they seek.
Scam the people and use them for their own agenda.

Americans are just too easy to SUCKER....by nature, because they have placed far too much faith in leadership with vested interests in themselves......over the will of the people......for decades.

Too trusting and too complacent.
Stupid, as well.
Bitterly divided.
Growing old.

Wealth redistribution can be more easily achieved once political clout is established.....and then and with numerous policiesmore easily enacted under the guise of NEEDED reform or "because of a crisis".....they could ensure that it is THEY who will soon have total global wealth and control, power and dominance. When the few of them are soooo filty rich....and control the single-World Govt. and the single bank and currency they will create.......they will literally, OWN the rest of us.
Until their idea of our place in a New World Order is in accordance with other nations.
They just needed to own the American govt. first.....and let the chaos begin from there.

GB just noted a reference of 'Crime Inc.' is apparently now, what is "governing" America and the Mafia never got nearly as big, but would surely be proud, basically.
The Sopranos run the show now....or something like that.

And.....it makes the Watergate scandal look like child's play, in comparison....but Nixon......obviously, wasn't connected well enough.

Naw, he's tip toeing around the real "retirement" issue.

[checking over one's shoulder]

Want to know the dreaded secret?

[looking again]

The secret that no "talking head" (on any partisan wing) will dare utter?

[double checking]

Everything "they" do to us is by our own consent.

[Really?]

Yup.

Everything.
But 99.9999% of the American sheeple are never informed about how and when they gave consent.

Here's a hint:
Declaration of Independence states that job #1 = secure rights, job #2 = govern those who CONSENT.

And if you check the 1777 Articles of Confederation, you will see the government has the power to mobilize the MILITIA.
What you may not know, is that in the law, the MILITIA are defined as ALL MALE CITIZENS between 17 and 45 (with some exclusions).

So how did a government delegated the power to secure one's right to life, liberty, property, etc, get the power to deny that same life, liberty, etc, with MANDATORY military training and mobilization?

There's nothing voluntary about being male nor growing up.

What's left?

When you figure it out, go read Article IV of Confederation, and pay attention to those "free inhabitants" who are NOT "free citizens".

----------
REFERENCES

The Supreme Court has held, in Butler v. Perry, 240 U.S. 328 (1916), that the Thirteenth Amendment does not prohibit "enforcement of those duties which individuals owe to the state, such as services in the army, militia, on the jury, etc." In Selective Draft Law Cases, 245 U.S. 366 (1918), the Supreme Court ruled that the military draft was not "involuntary servitude".

"Enforcement" = compulsory
"Selective Service" = conscription = constitutional

All male citizens are the militia, obligated to train, fight and die on command. That is the reason why conscription is 100% constitutional.
Title 10 USC Sec. 311. Militia: composition and classes
(a) The militia of the United States consists of all able-bodied males at least 17 years of age and, except as provided in section 313 of title 32, under 45 years of age who are, or who have made a declaration of intention to become, CITIZENS of the United States and of female citizens of the United States who are members of the National Guard.
(b) The classes of the militia are—
(1) the organized militia, which consists of the National Guard and the Naval Militia; and
(2) the unorganized militia, which consists of the members of the militia who are not members of the National Guard or the Naval Militia.

Title 50 USC Sec. 453. Registration (Selective Service)
(a)...it shall be the duty of every male CITIZEN of the United States, and every other male person RESIDING in the United States, who, on the day or days fixed for the first or any subsequent registration, is between the ages of eighteen and twenty-six, to present himself for and submit to registration at such time or times and place or places, and in such manner, as shall be determined by proclamation of the President and by rules and regulations prescribed hereunder.
Art. 1, Sec. 8, USCON
Congress shall have power ... To provide for calling forth the militia to execute the laws of the union, suppress insurrections and repel invasions;

Articles of Confederation, VI.
...every State shall always keep up a well-regulated and disciplined militia, sufficiently armed and accoutered, and shall provide and constantly have ready for use, in public stores, a due number of filed pieces and tents, and a proper quantity of arms, ammunition and camp equipage.
All male citizens have consented to be obligated to train, fight and die.

Didn't "they" tell you that there were Americans who are NOT citizens?
"The better to secure and perpetuate mutual friendship and intercourse among the people of the different states in this union, the free inhabitants of each of these states, ... shall be entitled to all privileges and immunities of free citizens in the several states;...."
[Article IV of the Articles of Confederation (1777)]
FYI - inhabitants have a domicile.

[Yes, I've repeatedly written to GB and / or his staff. They just don't dare mention this stuff on air.]

I hope not. He's the last bastion of honesty in the media. He makes some mistakes, but always admits it in later shows.

There is proof that he is telling the truth....nothing he says is ever disputed, except when he makes an honest mistake. They always make fun of the man, never disputing what he says.

odd that there is only one post like this in this thread. Normally the leftists would be all over something like this, simply because it mentions Glenn Beck. But all we get so far is a speculation with no basis in fact. I'm used to posts with no basis in fact, though, and disappointed there aren't more of them. Obviously everyone in this thread is a clueless lunatic that watches faux news..

obviously, name calling is your only response since you can't deny the connections between goldman sachs, obama, CCX, and the global warming / cap and trade agenda trying to get jammed down our throats.

video for those who are interested:
http://townhall.com/blog/g/1acea35d-...0-3691e80bb8da

cap and trade was a big failure in europe and even the NY times exposed that failure in 2008:
BRUSSELS — The European Union started with a high-minded ecological goal: encouraging companies to cut their greenhouse gases by making them pay for each ton of carbon dioxide they emitted into the atmosphere.

But that plan unleashed a lobbying free-for-all that led politicians to dole out favors to various industries, undermining the environmental goals. Four years later, it is becoming clear that system has so far produced little noticeable benefit to the climate — but generated a multibillion-dollar windfall for some of the Continent’s biggest polluters.

and yet our representatives still want to proceed with it. hmmm..............
