Three years ago Glenn Beck was a nobody working at CNN Headline News with a little television show buried under the tons of leftist noise. He left Headline News to be hired by FOXNews and we all know the story after that. Saturday's Lincoln Memorial rally, organized by Beck, was perfect, not only because it was peaceful, clean, and orderly, but because it was a perfect message and timing. It was also a dagger in the heart of the anti-American left in more ways than one. To have God mentioned in Washington D.C. at the Lincoln Memorial on loud speakers is something that in this day and age is unprecedented. I saw video of the rally and the comparison photos from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr's "I have a dream" speech and the crowds were comparable in size. That scares the hell out of the left and especially the mainstream media.

     The Tea Parties started up in February and March of 2009 and eventually had an incredible rally of over a million last Sept. 12. The initial organization started right after Obama slapped America with over a trillion dollars in debt by signing into law the failed "stimulus package". Since then as the democrat controlled government has shoved socialist bill after socialist bill down our throats, the movement had gotten larger and more determined. The furor over Obamacare had gone on for over a year and shortly after it was shoved down our throats things kind of quieted down. For Patriots it was seething anger being turned into action removing RINO's in their local GOP for the upcoming elections. For the left the perceived quiet was a window of opportunity to attack the Tea Party and try to recover in time for the mid-term elections.

     Beck's rally put a halt on any leftist dreams of somehow surviving politically in November. Not because of the rally itself but because it shows that Americans have not forgotten and are determined to do what they have to do to save the country. The Tea Party movement is really part of a bigger movement, which is the return to the Founders' Conservative roots. The rally states unequivically that we are not going away and that the movement is not going away either. The American populace is not stupid. We can see what the leftists in Congress and what Obama are trying to do. They aren't getting away with anything. They do what they do best, which is to lie straight to your face and without any shame whatsoever, and our job is to remove them. 

     The size and message of the Beck rally slaps Obama and the other corrupt democrats in the face during this "recovery summer". Thirty years ago this kind of thing would never have happened. The mainstream leftist media controlled everything. The alternative media was non-existent then. No talk radio, no FOXNews, no blogs, no internet at all. The news you had access to was either from a leftist television network or a leftist newspaper. Those people had the power to choose what was news, and not news, and put whatever surrepticious spin they wanted on it. They had the power to sway government policy. 

     Now with alternative sources of news, the public is able to get the true story. With new found sources of news comes knowledge, interest and new opinions on how to make our country and society better. The entire country is getting the education they were denied in school through alternative news and the internet. This is the tsunami that is sweeping the nation. Along with the alternative news, and the education, has come the burning need to go back to the foundations of all that we hold dear. It's true that you don't know what you have until it's gone. 

     If you read the subheader on this site it says "God, Family, and America. Nothing else matters". It's true, nothing else does matter. If you know what it means to love God, your family and America you don't need to explain anything further because that credo encompasses everything in life. As things get worse in America, more and more people are rediscovering what really means something to them. Glenn Beck is helping all of us know that we are not alone. For the half million people that were there, millions of us in America wanted to be there. 

     The more soul searching that goes on, the more people are realizing that "God, Family, and America" are really all that matter. Glenn Beck has a huge audience and he is using his opportunity to do the right thing. Restoring our faith in God, and our honor, is imperative if we are to save our country. These also happen to be two of the three "Basic Conservative Principles". I think people are put into situations for a reason and God has a plan for all of us. For Glenn Beck it is to teach and stir passion in what is right, and he is doing a great job. His rally was the perfect message at the perfect time.
