Pe ople ask me all the time “what should I read, where should I look, how should I improve myself, how can I figure things out”,  … these three things-This is the best way to start – these books influenced me in the last year and I didn’t know they were written by my best friends until a few weeks ago.   The Age of the Unthinkable, which I talked to you about a year ago,  about eight months ago I taled to you about Survivor Club, and then America’s Prophet.  It is

The story of America is really one of self-reliance and optimism, and profound faith. Not only in the context of religious freedom, but also in the unprecedented faith in the ability of human beings to control their own destiny.

And while the spirit of personal responsibility was extraordinarily strong with our founders, great patriots like Thomas Paine, he argued for redistribution of wealth right off the bat. Alexander Hamilton, he wanted a central bank. Well, they wound up losing those battles but there were plenty who kept can on fighting.

The Constitution kept those dogs at bay for better part of 200 years. But, eventually, those seeking a different path than the ones the founders settled on realized the only way to really defeat the Constitution was for the people to stop reading it. Progressives realized victory required changing history. To defeat them, we have to correct that.

The New York Times did this story  today, because the Tea Party movement is  powerful.  It is making a difference….

But  you know what – Here’s the problem with the Tea Party movement – all movements – all movements – this could be Republican, Democrat, all of them.

If you have the movement here, centered on the Constitution and common sense, you ‘ve got a few people here,  and over here, left and right, who wouldn’t mind hijacking this movement – hijacking the movement for crazy people, or for people just in bed with the GOP, or the  DNC

the movement that America is looking for is about independance.  Some people want to co opt the 90% in the center- you gotta not be co opted -others are trying to making the people in the 90% just look like the fringes – either way it’s not good – you must resist the urge to just get somebody electedthat’s not that guy – you must stand on principle.

We move forward in America with honor.  If we don’t we’ll just repeat the mistakes that got us to this point and that – that would be crazy.

Progressivism

This is the disease
This is the disease in America
It’s not just spending
It’s not just taxes
It’s not just corruption
It is progressivism

And it is in both parties – It is in Republicans and it is in Democrats.   I’m so sick of hearing “Oh well Republicans are going to solve it all” Really?  It’s just Progressive Light,just like -

it’s like someone sticks a screwdriver in your eye and someone else pulls it out and puts a pin in your eye – I don’t want stuff in my eyes – stop stabbing me in my eye

Progressivism is the cancer in America and it is eating our Constitution and it was designed to eat our Constitution to progress past the Constitution

Contrast those examples with what just happened in Rhode Island.

This is one of the poorest performing school districts in Rhode Island.  They are now considering firing all the teachers because they refused to adapt to longer school days – 25 minutes longer…

No no no no no! No I only work three quarters of a year! Oh no tutoring struggling students?  Absolutely not!  I have tenure!

Providence Central High School Superintendent Francis Gallo.  God bless you Francis Gallo.  Late last week she announced she had no option except to fire all 74 of the teachers after the Teacher’s Union refused to accept her improvement plan for the schools.  Fire them – if the Unions won’t do it, fire them all.  Break the back of the leach that’s on our neck.

In an interview with the Providence  Journal  Gallo blamed the union’s callous disregard for the situation for the firings claiming every teacher knew full well what would happen if they didn’t agree to the proposal.

Good Job – Francis Gallo You Are A Hero.  Look -America is a system based on merit not entitlement.  You are not entitled to a job -

jobs are not in the Bill of Rights.

They are responsibilities – they are duties.

(moving pictures on blackboard).

You’re down here.   These guys are just playing games.  Blame the Republicans – Blame the Democrats – Just blame everyone else.

We’re down here.  We must shore ourselves up.  We must be sure that we’re not part of this system.  We must go out and look at each one individually.

Does she represent you (Debra Medina)?  does he? (Harry Reid)  he? (George Bush)

Who represents your values?  Because in times of trouble, these are the people who must make decisions.

President Obama:  “So far the dog hasn’t barked”.

Glenn Beck:  Bow Wow!  Ruff!  Grrrrr…

Dog hasn’t Barked?   It’s like a pack of wild Kujos ripping up the flesh of the American People?   I’ve given you a dozen examples over the last year of the stimulus debacle.  How about wasteful programs?

How about the incestuous handouts to invented stimulus districts?  The lawnmowers that magically created 50 jobs?  Ruff Ruff.  Grrr…

Even in his speech he misplaced 75 billion dollars.  Where did I put that 75 billion dollars?

The total of the stimulus package is not 787 billion any more.   It’s   now an est 862 billion dollars.  I’m sure the President is aware that the CBO has updated his own number.

He’s ignoring the giant Rottweiler attached to his leg.

GLENN BECK:

….What will America look like in the next 12-24 months? I think that’s what America wants to know.

Peter Schiff, the president of Europac and the author of Crashproof, How to Profit From the Coming Economic Crisis, and Bob Obrien, the stocks editor for Barron’s Online:

<Admin:  Here’s a snip of what Beck and Peter Schiff were talking about right after the October 2008 crash>

…I got a call from a friend of mine who is very high placed.  Everyone I know, Glenn, is reading about the Weimar Republic.  I said, Oh Geez, you mean the loaf of bread with a wheelbarrow full of money -- Republic?  He said “Uh huh”.

It is what a lot of people believe is coming.  Try to find a book -- on line -- about the Weimar Republic -- you will have a hard time finding some of the books -- a lot of them are -- just gone.  Who’s reading them all?

Peter Schiff, president of Europac and author of the “Little Book About Bear Moves and Bull Markets”.  Peter, worst nightmare, looks like it’s coming through…

Glenn:

There’s a new CD, it came out today, it’s called “Son of a Preacher Man”, it came  out today, I want you to go out and get it, I want you to hear this, you know what -- the song’s lyrics, you need to hear all the lyrics, they are available at  foxnews/glenn or whatever it is, also www.johnrich.com.
