So if Beck is encouraging the tea party gathering to return to God does that mean all the tax protesters will no longer complain about tax?

if you are a tax collecter, they probably will give you a nice burial and say a few good words.

Meanwhile his son, Martin Luther King III, decided to join the counter-rally.

Wondered when this day would come. I'm not pleased that it has, but not surprised either.

The Left's problem isn't the rally is on the day of King's "Dream" speech but because it's hosted by their biggest threats, Beck and Fox News.The Left goes absolutely crazy their lap dog media is all suffering big time in ratings compared to Fox News and thus suffering in their influence. Beck is currently rather influential and it drives the Lefties and some Republicans nuts.The Left is just angry because the election of Obama and all the crap he has done thus far has awaken the sleeping giant in a way, Americans have caught on to the BS of the left and come November they are going to do something about it.Duci, I'm not big on the religious stuff either but keep in mind Beck is a commentator who is a religious man, not a represenative of the GOP, so don't let it drive you back towards the bad guys.

Some have do actually have a problem with it being on the date and location of the "Dream" speech but they are just whining.Martin Luther King does not own August 28th for the rest of eternity nor does he own the Lincoln Memorial so anyway is free to have a rally there.

I have said before I am not a big fan of his and hate to defend him but felt it was needed.

Damn and the other week it was scared because Palin was its biggest threat
Isn't it amazing that you can come up with individuals who are widely regarded as a joke and a liablity and claim that they are threats to the opposition when their biggest threat they pose is to those they endorse.

Despite the idiocy of the rally. I have to hand it to the Beckster. Whitestock went far better than I expected. 87 thousand. It is obvious pubs are out in force this year and he did something VERY smart by banning signs. The lack of signs took away some of the power the racists had.

Do you get it Tea Party. If frakking moron Glen Beck can control racism in his rallies why cant you? I am waiting for an answer!

So what specifically happened and was said to make you believe this was racist?

Or are you suggesting that it was racist merely because of the skin color of the vast majority of attendents?

Because it seems to me you are doing the latter, which by itself is racist. In fact, it seems as though you are probably far more racist than most at Beck's rally. And no, being of the same ethnicity does not preclude you from being a racist - it just makes you even more ignorant than the rest.

There was very few of color in that rally. You honestly believe anyone of color would be even remotely conformable IN the crowd after the events at the Mosque rally where a non Muslim was nearly pounded on?

Whitestock was a funny name I heard earlier today.

And don't try the ole projection tactic. Racism in Tea party rallies is well documented.

But if you want a more recent reminder of some of the people in these rallies.
