I haven’t paid much attention to the numbers the mainstream media is saying attended the Glenn Beck ‘Restoring Honor’ rally yesterday at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C., but I’d guesstimate it’s somewhere around 500-1000 people given their track record on previous ‘estimates’. (note: that’s sarcasm directed at the media’s reporting of the first 9/12 march last year.)


This is a photo I first saw on Twitter, and since I’ve seen it floating around elsewhere. I thought I’d share it with everyone just in case you haven’t seen it.

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)
