My comments on 9/12 network about Glenn Becks speech at CPAC

I commented on the following article/post: http://www.the912project.us/forum/topics/glenn-beck-cpac-2010-speech

I haven't watched it yet, but am about to. Thank you for your review and links. I want to hear what Mark Levin's critique is. I love Glenn and am very thankful to him for his part in this whole revival we are all experiencing, but he has been a back bencher, as Mark likes to call him for ripping off material from Mark's show without giving credit. I also think he has become a sell out and somewhat of a fraud. He says to "question with boldness, hold to the truth, and speak without fear"; yet he blows off some serious issues that really need to be resolved. I do not consider myself on the extreme right, yet according to Glenn, those of us who want closure on Obama's constitutional eligibility status and the events of 9/11, are extreme right wackos. I'll keep following him when I can, but we need to take what he presents with a grain of salt and weigh it with what we learn from other reliable sources to make our own best informed decisions. Keep up the fight my fellow patriots! Thank you all, Glenn, and Jared.

The quote listed in the header of this blog is an abridgment of a quote of Ezra Taft Benson. Here it is in it's entirety:

In times as serious as these, we must not permit fear of criticism to keep us from doing our duty, even at the risk of our counsel being tabbed as political, as government becomes more and more entwined in our daily lives. In the crisis through which we are now passing, we have been fully warned. There are some of us who do not want to hear the message. It embarrasses us. The things which are threatening our lives, our welfare, our freedoms are the very things some of us have been condoning. Many do not want to be disturbed as they continue to enjoy their comfortable complacency. There can be no neutrality! We are, or we are not, on the side of the Lord! (Ezra Taft Benson, 1973)
