The Right Scoop
2 Chronicles 7:14 (New International Version)
14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
All we do outside of God's will is destined to fail.
You either believe in individual responsibility and freedom, or live under the imposition of one set of rules. I think Glenn made his point.
Your point is well taken by “me”, and I agree. But after all is distilled, into the very essence, it is a collection of individual responsibility that we as individuals must be responsible for ourselves and thus become the collective. Opinion is based on a vast myriad of influence, but as Glenn states, we are at a cross road. We either come together as a collective of like minded people, or we submit as the oppressed. The line is being drawn, and the masses are taking sides. It is time that the majority is determined, and the direction forward is charted. Glenn has decided which side he is on, and is rallying his base of, like minded, people to join him to take a stand. He has obviously garnered a very large and expanding constituency in hopes of capturing the majority, and projecting that into the future. It is we who agree or disagree that will determine the outcome.
Dan,
I believe I had replied to HumphreyPloughwhatever.
I have personally checked out Barton and Beck on several occasions and subjects and have found them reliable. Even if I were to find a mistake here and there, it would not change my confidence because we ALL make a mistake now and then.
Therefore, you cannot convince me otherwise.
I just don't like it when people make comments and claims without providing evidence to back them up.
And, by the way, what makes you think I would put any confidence in a liberal troll academic? They're a big part of the problem in the country and are primarily responsible for the rewriting of history and distortion of historical facts. In other words, academics are totally unreliable and untrustworthy.
I'm getting sick and tired of people claiming that history is a science. History is a social science there for the scientific method is applicable only to the facts as in ware and what happened. All the other bull written in most history books is just a theory that the author came to after studying the facts. Which can't be proved or disproved since we cant perform experiments to test it you know the thing that science is based on REPEATABLE CONTROLLED EXPERIMENTS. The fact that historians agree on something isn't science.
Why does America need to be "refound" or "fundmentally transformed?" When did this country lose it's way? I have yet to once take a history course in college or read a book that states what day or event caused us to lose our way. And why do the far right nationalists and dominionists that falsely claim to be the inheritors of the Reagan revolution hate this country and the Constitution?
Sure America has it's share of problems.But where have we ever failed to overcome them and make this country a better place?
Yes, most Americans are ignorant about our history, but people like Beck and Barton are part of that problem.Any serious student of history knows and can easily point out all their mistakes and often times,lies.Like that American "exceptionalism" is not a founding principle.No one had even heard of it until a French aristocrat coined the phrase in the 1830's.Not a single Founder ever believed in such a silly statement.As for Enlightenment,isn't that something the reconstructionists fight against as the reactionaries they are.
But maybe Beck has come to his senses and he will only have actual historians on his show.That'd be a welcomed step forward as it relates to teaching Americans actual history.
I doesn't matter who Beck brought on. They would all be discredited just as you feel Barton has, even though he can back up everything he says.
Barton's facts have been exposed and refuted time and time again.He is not even an accredited historian.He has even admitted to making up quotes.His website has a page with quotes he can't prove that any of the Founders actually said.If Beck had on a historian such as Alan Taylor or Joseph Ellis,how would they be discredited? Just these two example are regarded as experts in their fields,have won countless awards, and their works are sited time and again in serious works of history.I can't find one example of Barton's work being sited by a serious historian.
This is not the Huffington Post. You're obviously lost. Go spew your idiocy elsewhere please.
Thank you.
Soros says "Americans must get used to the New World Order."
I say:
We ARE getting ready for the NWO George!
We've been stockpiling battle weapons and billions of rounds of ammunition for two years already.
Bring on those Blue Helmets.
They make might fine targets.
Just sayin'
Oops! I don't think you had the comments opened at the time I posted this.
You can move it if you like, I don't know how (other than copy and paste).
