Great Ideas – the 56 Refounders

On 9-12-2009 Glenn Beck said this:

Fifty-six men changed the world forever. We currently have 535 people in the United States Congress. You can’t tell me that we don’t have 56 committed patriots there who understand that there’s an illness in D.C. and would like to do something about it, but just don’t know how or what to do.

…We need to offer a way out to members of Congress. Now we know that some of these people are like Typhoid Mary, just spreading corruption wherever they can. Others, can and will find redemption and feel good about themselves and their country again. Still others have maybe not yet been fully infected.

…Stop identifying yourselves as Republicans and Democrats; start identifying yourselves as Americans.

So, we stop talking about any policies or legislation passing — a total quarantine. We get Democrats to focus on fixing the Democratic Party and Republicans to focus on the Republican Party. Come out, find a microphone and purge the disease

…..Don’t worry about the game players — those stuck in the right vs. left rut — forget them and move on. Talk to the reasonable ones

….Let’s stop thinking about it and do something about it.
