Thank you, Glenn Beck

Glenn Beck is on a mission to restore America's honor. Thank you, Glenn Beck. I didn't know that we had lost our honor, so it's good that you are on this.

Mr. Beck promises to lead us out of the darkness and into the white. That's not a typo. I meant white. I am not sure what the plan is as I have never really watched a whole Glenn Beck show on Fox or listened to his speech at the weekend rally or even read anything he's written. I just know that he has the guts to say stuff with such gusto and bravado so that the content of his message doesn't really matter. What does count, from what I can decipher, is the color of his skin. Let's face it, he's really, really white. White is the color of most Tea Partiers. White is the color of most Republicans. White is the color of most Libertarians. And white is the color of most Mormons - Glenn's religious affiliation. In Glenn Beck's world, white must go with everything. Just saying.

Glenn Beck says he knows exactly how to retrieve America's lost honor! OMG. That's amazing. Again, I am not sure what dishonor he speaks of, but Mr. Beck must have unearthed something. He wouldn't just make up stuff. And his intel's gotta be gold. After all, he presents said intel so expertly on chalkboards. I've seen this a couple of times. It makes me think of the late Tim Russert who used to write on a whiteboard election nights. I miss him. Anyway, low tech makes Mr. Beck appear teacher-ish. Just like high school algebra, his chalk formulas are a little dizzying. Oh well. If it helps us find our lost honor, he must be onto something.

Until our honor is restored, I wonder if it is still ok that I fly the American flag in my front yard? What would Glenn Beck do? WWGBD? We recently moved the flag from the front of our house to one of the trees in our front yard. It looks so nice. It really does wave in the wind. I remember putting it out late morning the day of 9-11, through tears. It was the only thing I could think of doing, after calling my children and husband and friends. I love that flag and my country. Truth is, I don't think America has lost its honor. Just think, if all countries had their own Facebook page, American for sure would have the most friends. WAY more.

I wonder what Tim Russert would think of Glenn Beck and his apocalyptic predictions? He'd probably tell Mr. Beck his formula is flawed and advise he go back to the drawing chalkboard.
