Glenn Beck Program April 28, 2011

In-studio Audience

  • Nearly are 250 killed by tornados in the South.
  • Texas Governor Rick Perry requested assistance from the federal government two weeks ago.  So far, no response.
  • The focus of Glenn’s program is on courage and love.
  • How do you get a free people to walk into a cage? 

Indoctrinationand Loss of Freedoms

  • Some believe that people should be given limited choices so they will be prevented from making bad ones.
  • Glenn feels we are losing our freedoms.
  • He showed a video of a past Miss America discussing her pat down at the airport and felt violated by the way the screener groped her.
  • He talked to Representative Adam West (R-FL) and wants Adam to run for President.  Adam said that the mindset of the political parties is breaking down.  We have to go out and find candidates who will truly represent us.
  • Glenn showed a video of a preacher being arrested for impeding a business.  He was reading the bible on the sidewalk.  Glenn pointed out that unions do that all the time and they don’t get arrested.  The police released a statement…
“We would have grated them a permit to go out and preach…there is a mechanism to be allowed to protest…we don’t inhibit people’s right to free speech – we regulate it.”

  • Glenn then showed the cover of the new Superman comic book where Superman renounces his American citizenship…  Said Superman...
“I’m tired of having my actions construed as instruments of U.S. policy.  Truth, justice and the American way… It’s not enough anymore.”

Indoctrinating School Children
·        Look at the messages our kids are getting anymore.
·        He showed a video of high school kids in Tucson, AZ protesting at a school board meeting by chaining themselves to the desks and yelling chants.  The reason for the demonstration was that a Mexican-American history class was shut down because it advocated the overthrow of the U.S. government, promoted hatred for white people and called for replacing Thanksgiving with a “Day of Atonement” including a call for death to the invader.
·        Glenn feels the kids are rioting because they have been taught that they have no future because of the evil corporations, the immoral U.S. government and a rotten Constitution.
o       In the 1960s, the rioting students were in college.  Today, they are in high school or even earlier.
·        In Texas, the ACLU has forced a policy change in the schools so that students no longer have to stand for the pledge of allegiance.  Previously, they were allowed to not say the pledge.
·        In one Massachusetts school, parents had to sign a permission slip so their children could say the pledge.  Another school gave up offering it at all.
·        Glenn showed a video of a teacher discussing the best way to get Marxism into the classroom.
·        He showed portions of the anti-capitalism cartoon file, “The Story of Stuff” and a follow-on film.
·        He then showed a web page at energystarkids.gov where kids are taught to stop evil corporations before they destroy the earth.
·        He showed a video of a CA teacher promoting socialism at a rally of students.
·        “Maria Talks” is a Massachusetts web site that advocates abortion.  One advice item worries about the psychological effects of giving up your baby for adoption.
·        Glenn notes that there is an effort to get kids to not listen to their parents.  He showed a video of Al Gore telling young people not to talk to their parents.
·        In New York, convicted felons are teaching school.  Parents are outraged.  Mayor Bloomberg says the contract prevents him from doing anything about it.  Glenn said that if the government can abrogate the contracts at GM, why couldn’t we do it with convicted felons in the classroom?  It’s only our children that are affected.
  
People Who Have “Had it”
·        Glenn introduced several audience members who have “had it” and went out and did something about it.
o       One lady objected to portions of her daughter’s textbook.  She has been working to get the book removed from the classroom.  For more information see facebook:eye on the board
o       On man objected to the movies being shown and descriptions of the U.S. Constitution as being 400 years old and written by rich white guys.  For more information see  whatsadadtodo@gmail.com
·        Glenn notes that our children are not learning what we learned growing up.  He discusses the TV show “Glee”.  The kids are bright, attractive and talented.  But the values they express are terrible – the kids are sleeping with each other and sing anti-capitalist songs.
·        Glenn then discussed the family of his Chief of Staff, Joe.  Joe’s mother is from Korea and worked at a 7-11.  One night she came home from work and the kids hadn’t done their homework and were watching TV.  She picked up the TV and threw it out on the front lawn.  Joe’s family didn’t get another TV until he was 18.
·        Another audience member fights against pay raises for teachers because of the values being taught.  For more information see yscfrg.org
·        Another audience member is involved with a Christian private school.  She is seeing a groundswell of parents trying to leave the public school system.  For more information see dayspringchristian.com.
·          Another site mentioned is   york912patriots.com

  • He showed a quote from Andy Stern, then president of SEIU, saying they are watching how people voted, where they live and they took names.

“We will be vigilant in monitoring the oil and gas markets for any wrongdoing so that consumers can be confident they are not paying higher prices as a result of illegal activity.”

  • Meanwhile, the Attorney General admits there is no illegal activity.
  • Isn’t the FTC (Federal Trade Commission) supposed to handle this situation, not the Justice Department?
  • Wasn’t the Financial Reform Bill supposed to protect us from this?  Wasn’t the energy sector covered?
  • Is the FTC irrelevant, or do officials know what is really causing price increases?
  • In addition to the three foreign wars going on, there is another one being waged by the Progressives.  The Democrat Party was slowly taken over until it became just the way it was.  There are Progressives in both parties.

Glenn Beck Program April 22, 2011

In studio audience.
o       Glenn is leaving the program. 
o       There are other things he wants to do. 
o       He feels a responsibility to “ring the bell”, but he does not feel that he can reach any more people in this venue.
o       He thinks we should get involved.
o       He is tired of waiting for others to lead, so leadership devolves on us.
o       It is time for him as a citizen to get involved, more than he is here.
o       Now, he is “preaching to the choir”.

Guests

  • Glenn showed a chalkboard with faces on small magnetic boards of radicals surrounding President Obama.  He noted…
o       Van Jones – A 9/11 Truther

o       Cass Sunsteen – Regulatory czar
o       Samantha Power – Ms. Cass Sunsteen. 
o       Understands war can be used to advance liberal causes. 
o       Has the President’s ear.

o       In Washington this week there is a US/Islamic World Forum to help Muslims get united.

o       Audience Question:  What happens to the people who bring down the system?
      Answer:   Nothing.  That’s a reason to belong to the political class.  You are insulated from that sort of thing.  Insider will protect him.  See the housing crisis.

o       There was a discussion of why George Soros might want to collapse the system.

o       Glenn reorganized most of the people on the board into four categories…
1.      Thugs
2.      Thinkers
3.      Do-ers, organizers, Marxists
4.      Media Control
o       Glenn posits that our situation today is similar to Rome’s with Octavia, the first Roman dictator.  Rome was a republic until Octavia took over.  However, he left the structure and symbols (the Roman Senate) in place so people still felt they lived in a republic.
o       There was a discussion of possibly resisting such an overthrow.
o       Glenn noted that Bill Ayres was willing to kill 25 million Americans to see his revolution succeed.
o       Glen thinks that Hillary Clinton will become the public face of the post-overthrow system.
o       Regulation is a way to implement public policy without paying for it.
1.      You don’t have to go through Congress.
2.      You don’t have to answer to voters.
3.      You don’t have to pay for it.
§         American businesses spend about $1.7 trillion per year in regulatory compliance.
§         That figure is more than all company profits, or company income taxes.

o       The price of oil is pegged to the dollar.
o       The price of gas isn’t going up, the value of the dollar is falling.
·        Everything in the world is measured against the dollar.
·        Who is controlling the value of the dollar?   Ben Bernanke.
·        How has the stock market stayed up?
·        He showed a chart of the stock market from 2010 until today.
·        There was a decline in 2010 when QE 1 ended.
·        Then QE 2 was announced and the market improved.
·        But QE 2 will end in June and people are talking about a 20% drop in the market.
·        How low can the dollar go?
o                   In the last eight years, the dollar has lost 21.4%
o                   Its now worth 79 cents.
·        Glenn said that when he encouraged people to buy gold, he was called crazy.
o       He held up a copy of the New York Times, Business Day Page that said  “Prices Surge as Investors Rush to Safety of Gold.

  • The Fed is the most important company in the world and nobody knows about them.  Next Wednesday the Fed will have the first press conference in 97 years.
  • The new regulatory reform is structured to control you, not them.
    • We had 200 years to get away from central control and we are re-inventing it all over again.
  • The book “New Deal or Raw Deal how big business used FDR’s NRA code to destroy small businesses.” (http://www.amazon.com/New-Deal-Raw-Economic-Damaged/dp/1416592377/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1303689061&sr=1-1 )

    • These capes were bought with taxpayer funds.
  • At the Huffington Post, an article “Financial System Riskier”
“The financial system poses an even greater risk to taxpayers than before the crisis, according to analysts at Standard and Poor’s.  The next rescue could be about a trillion dollars costlier, the credit rating agency warned

The potential for further extraordinary critical assistance to large players in the US financial sector poses a negative risk to the government’s credit rating…”

  • Offshore oil production is expected to be down 13% this year.
  • California trucking firms may go out of business due to new environmental controls.
  • A new group, US Uncut is launched.

Glenn Beck Program April 19, 2011

  • New York bureaucrats have identified risky children’s’ games at summer camp…
    • Freeze Tag
    • Wiffle Ball
    • Kick Ball
    • Capture the Flag
    • Red Rover
    • Dodge Ball
  • If a summer camp wants to offer 2 of these activities, they must register with the state and pay a $200 fee.
  • It is amazing that the government will go to great lengths to protect kids against the above games, but does not issue warnings against the National Debt.
    • The debt went up $34 billion in one day.
  • Current inflation calculations have it at 2.7%. 
    • Using the old style formula, inflation is 9.6%
  • In 2008, Glenn talked about the US credit being downgraded.
  • He showed a bar chart.  People were asked if it was more likely that the stock market would have a 20% rally or a 20% pullback…
    • One survey was done in January, another in April.
    • In January, more people projected a rally.
    • In April, more people predicted a pullback.
  • The last time a credit rating agency reduced this country’s rating from stable to unstable was World War II.
    • The current reduction is due to the National Debt.
  • Gold has continued to climb since Glenn recommended it at less than $700 per ounce.
    • Recently gold went over $1,500 per ounce.
  • The government continues to borrow at a rate of $185 million every hour.
  • Only five countries in the last 20 years have been downgraded to unstable status.
    • And, only two have regained their stable status.
    • He showed a chart of the world’s largest economies.  Only two were negative.  They were…
      • The US
      • Spain
  • Glenn asks why are they not telling you to be prepared?  Why wouldn’t they want you to be prepared?
  • Glenn read a breaking news item – New York backed off from denouncing risky summer camp games.
  • When families spend too much, they have to downgrade their lifestyle to recover.
  • The University of Texas just bought $1 billion of physical gold.  They had it transferred to them.
  • The Left is preparing.  Why?  If they are preparing, should you?
  • Glenn recommended a book “America’s Prophet” (http://www.amazon.com/Americas-Prophet-Story-Shaped-America/dp/0061726273/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1303681360&sr=1-1 ).
    • He rated it as one of the best books ever.
  • Glenn then discussed Israel, the Jewish tradition of Passover and President Obama’s Passover message.
  • Ynetnews.com on April 9th had an article “Egyptians March on Israeli Embassy”…
“Arab newspaper says protestors burned Israeli flags, handed out fliers calling for a third Intifada to be held on Nakba day.  More than 1,000 marched on the Israeli embassy…protestors demanded cutting all diplomatic and financial ties with Israel and opening of the Rafah crossing between Egypt and Gaza.”

Nakba Day is the day of catastrophe.  It is celebrated every year.
  • Glenn discussed Christians getting killed and attacked by Muslims through Africa and the Middle East.  And, he asks, where is President Obama on this issue?
