Glenn Beck's 8-28 Rally in Washington D.C.

[Yootwopia]

well I am disappointed that it is over so quickly i cant imagine how much more disappointed the people are who came a very long way to see a day long rally and only got 3 hours of church.

Och am sure Huckabee'll turn up or something and keep the party going through the day.

[Zephie]

Alright, but it makes them damn irritating xD

Why? Are you intolerant of religion?

[Dyakovo]

The largest gathering of what is wrong with this nation is within one tiny location.

Let's hope a downdraft of all his hot air lays them to waste.

And what exactly is wrong with those people?

They're Theocrats.

If I was there I'd get up on top with a megaphone and scream

"TREATY OF TRIPOLI BITCH!"

Uh, being religious does not mean you are a theocrat, just like how believing in some social programs does not make you a communist.

Yes, but attempting to force gov. policy to follow ones own, religious ideals does.

No it doesn't.

Another word that you don't know the meaning of...
Seriously, I suggest you invest in a dictionary.

I have an unabridged dictionary, but I only dig it up if I absolutely need it.
Having a religion doesn't make you a theocrat. Would you care to write a small thesis on why believing in God makes somebody a theocrat?

When it shouts loudly "YOU CANNOT MARRY, UNNATURAL HELL SPAWN" at me, then yes.

[Thurask]

Heh, Glenn Beck's face fits in The Torture Game 2. Fun.

Marry me?
Oh, and can you provide a link to the picture you used?

When you demand the government play favoritism when you want your god to be the "Boss" of the nation then you want a theocracy.

God is not on the US's Chain of Command.

Beck and all his followers keep their Bibles to themselves.

I will believe whatever the **** I want to believe, and this nation cannot discriminate for that fact.

You seriously need to look into "Christian Reconstructionism". It's heavily intertwined into the tea-party movements top movers (and indeed many of its followers), and in much of modern conservatism and right-libertarianism... And also extremely dangerous in relation to US civil liberties. The movement is not simply about "having faith" but ultimately about imposing religion through the power of government.

I'm not scared of religion, I'm religious myself... It's merely I know what their ultimate goals are based upon their theological motivations. It's much easier to marginalize the theocrats while they still have a smaller power-base.

No they are not, a lot of people are bandwagoning, but that's not what the movement stands for.

[Augarundus]

Huge-ass crowd of people.

Holy !@#%

[Greed and Death]

Holy shit they are burning the Lincoln memorial.

[Nort Eurasia]

Some heavily conservative/irrationally disgruntled Americans showed up.

It's also an idea of the Christian Identity movement.

Eric Rudolph's supporters.

[Augarundus]

Martin Luther King's niece is obviously a racist.

[Ashmoria]

Holy !@#%

yeah he got a good crowd.

i wonder what they are going to do for the rest of the day.

It wasn't a 'good crowd'.

It was 330,000+ people. For a non-president, that's massive (for perspective, Martin Luther King Jr. got 200k).

[The Lone Alliance]

Holy shit they are burning the Lincoln memorial.

That would be kind of hard to do, seeing how it's stone and all.

Again, pity that his hot air didn't come falling down on them to give them all heat exhaustion, they most likely would have lived but at least it would have made them shut up for a few weeks.
(Then again I'm betting that's why he's ending it)

-_-

No one's called her a racist. She is homophobic, though.

Christian Reconstructionists aren't "bandwagoning", they're driving the fucking wagons.

Why is she a homophobe?

Smear campaigns are smear-ish.


Anyways, this entire event has been called a mockery of Martin Luther King and racist... while Martin Luther King's family members are attending! Criticism of the "RESTORING HONOR" rally which benefits the FAMILIES OF DEAD TROOPS is ludicrous.

Yeah, It was a peaceful and appropriate demonstration. I mean, they could've done it like this...

For the 4th time, she spent quite a while talking about the the insitution of marriage was under attack from us evil gays. As you would call anyone who claimed that inter-racial marriage is a threat the the institution of marriage a racist, I call her a homophobe.

Anything that isn't pro-gay is homophobic?
