WE SURROUND THEM - Glen Beck

Glen Beck is doing this cool project called We Surround them. It is easy with all the libs (on both sides of the isle) running things to think we are alone. The purpose of this project is to tell the Washington elite how many of us still live by the core beliefs that the country was founded on. He has a list of 9 principals:
The Nine Principles

1. America is good.

2. I believe in God and He is the Center of my Life.

3. I must always try to be a more honest person than I was yesterday.

4. The family is sacred. My spouse and I are the ultimate authority, not the government.

5. If you break the law you pay the penalty. Justice is blind and no one is above it.

6. I have a right to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness, but there is no guarantee of equal results.

7. I work hard for what I have and I will share it with who I want to. Government cannot force me to be charitable.

8. It is not un-American for me to disagree with authority or to share my personal opinion.

9. The government works for me. I do not answer to them, they answer to me.
I personally agree with all 9. If you agree with at least 7, he wants us to send him our pictures for a segment to prove that we are the many not the few.

This has nothing to do with his list but I listen to him almost everyday and I think he's getting a bit too doom and gloom. He's always saying I told you so and follows that up with "people were calling me insane when I said this 6 months ago!" Well I can see why. I'm pretty sure you are insane. His show used to be much more entertaining.

Not to mention he, as a Mormon, most likely believes that in the highest heaven you become a god yourself. That's a little crazy too.

Love Glenn Beck, and I agree with all 9. I will look into this later.

Yeah, he used to entertain, but now he's always so depressing.

Agreed, unbearably depressing.
