Watch today's FreePac Convention. Atls Shrugged starts at minute 26:00 for about 10 minutes. It includes the new trailer that is great! Has some coverage on Common Core.
Loved the trailer a little Patrick Henry mixed in with Ayn Rand. Both of them knew what would become of this country and it might sound repetitive, but God uses those who he wants to do his work. Deep down I believe Rand was used as a prophet as Patrick Henry was and many more. They both saw the perils that you and I are seeing now. Great article.
I admire Glenn for his values and ideas - one problem, I am apprehensive of some of the artifacts he presents as real - I watched on of his shows where he showed an army helmet that had five stars on it and claimed it was worn by Ike on D-Day - I only hope he was duped by whomever he bought it from because there is NO photographic evidence that Ike EVER wore that helmet - IN FACT, Ike was not made a Five-Star General until December of 1944 - 6 months AFTER D-Day.
Watch the new AS III trailer shown for the first time. The artist is very talented! I haven't watched all of it yet. Had to post after the Atlas Shrugged piece. AS starts around minute 26. Looks like the date for the movie is 9/12/14. Have to go back and watch the rest of it. 8-)
Glenn Beck was interesting. He is an accomplished performer. I recently joined a Toastmasters club to re-qualify my certification. So, I appreciate Beck. I note that he uses the royal "we." I also followed up his story of Tokyo Rose. It is in Wikipedia, as what is not? It is not a secret. But who has time for everything?
As for Beck's claim that Wilson endorsed "Birth of a Nation" that seems to be controversial and widely denied. Griffith was a relentless promoter and even claimed that his film was federally-approved. (Again see Wikipedia on Birth of a Nation. It is a matter of what we can consider "common knowledge.")
I agree. I did not know the true story of Tokyo Rose. But apparently, neither does Glenn Beck. I found his talk interesting just because of his claims. But you have to check him for yourself. He does not go to the public library and come back with knowledge. He has a staff of researchers; and he picks what sells to talk about. His job is to build and keep an audience. He believes what he is saying, but that belief defines his expectation of truth.
I was following Glenn Beck from before he left Fox. I subscribed to the live broadcasts for years. Once he started going after Alex Jones, I severed my ties and only subscribe to Alex now. Glenn caused my eyes to be opened as to the existence of the puppet masters like George Soros, my adventure began. I got a kick out of the show he did when he rolled out the list of organizations that Soros funds, like Media Matters, and it was over 75 feet long. It went out of the studio and down the hallway!
I'm like the Bereans in the Bible, I accept the information with open ears, but then I go and check to see if it is true. I grew up in New York so my red light goes on rather quickly. 8-)
