''The line it is drawn
The curse it is cast
The slow one now
Will later be fast
As the present now
Will later be past
The order is Rapidly fadin'.
And the first one now
Will later be last
For the times they are a-changin'."
--Bob Dylan
Glenn Beck, who was 15 years old when I wrote this, is the first person I have seen with the talent, the money, the drive and, most important, the willingness to "risk mortification of the flesh." As I've said in previous articles, he has dragged the evildoers in Washington into a war with him that they cannot win....After the League of American Voters ran ads in Arkansas, North Dakota and Maine, the under-30 crowd changed its tune and now opposes the Democrats' Orwellian legislation by an eye-opening 65-25. Which proves again that what I first wrote about in 1979 in "Restoring the American Dream" is true: Short of a violent counterrevolution, education of the masses is the key to defeating the progressive movement to socialize America.
Informed people know that government-run health care has nothing to do with helping those who are uninsured … that global warming is a scam … that the purpose of cap-and-trade is to raise taxes and control people's lives … that most members of Congress are totally corrupt and that a large number of them are guilty of treason … to name but a few of the more egregious items. Yet the government keeps inundating us with its trickle-down lies.
But the times they are a changin'. The progressives are now getting it from all sides, thanks to Fox News, conservative talk radio, conservative and libertarian bloggers, and, above all, a strange humanoid by the name of Glenn Beck to whom God handed a divine mission.
Though the Republican establishment (that's right, Republican) is up in arms over Beck, they're too late. The only thing that can stop him is an assassin's bullet, and let's hope that doesn't happen. And if it did, it might just trigger an acceleration in the citizen revolt that is now well under way.
Take a stand for the principles that have made America so great, a magnetic bumper sticker proclaiming: "Life, Liberty and Property"
Much like the Founding Fathers, I believe that Beck has committed himself to using his fame, his fortune and his enormous talents to defeating the poisonous progressive movement in this country. And his commitment, in turn, has motivated millions of other people to take a tough stand against tyranny.
