John Stewart of the Comedy Central came up with the best head line for the big Rally on the Washington DC mall . "I Have a Scheme" The Restoring Honor Rally is another republican rally for freedom from the democrats. During the 1980 n the of c to restore freedom, liberty, and Glen Beck claims that these uneducated followers of his, will take back the Civil Rights Movement.
According to ABC on line ...The rally will be held at the footsteps of the Lincoln Memorial on a significant day -- the anniversary of Martin Luther King, Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech, which was delivered in the same location 47 years ago.
Beck says that Saturday's rally is non-political and intended to honor American troops. Still, many Tea Party chapters from across the country are planning to attend, and both Beck and Sarah Palin will deliver the keynote speeches.
Becks Previous Version of Honor
This Rally was used to voice a political agenda with out any doubt, these so called followers of the ultra conservative cognitive challenged Christian Republicans have nothing in common with the 1963 Civil Rights march of Dr. King forty seven years ago. Dr. King would have more than likely been treated the same way Beck attacked Van Jones, Acorn and and not to mention his constant attacks of the President... That's Honorable .
These teary eyed followers of Beckism claim their goal for this Rally 47 yrs to the date when Dr. Martin Luther King made his historic speech on the same mall is to restore honor in the United States and offer support of our military.
This honor that his followers claim to want to restore is questionable at best, especially when you consider that most of these people have offered nothing but lies, war-mongering, greed, deceit, racism, fear, anger, gun touting , threats, and unwillingness to help there fellow man to the nation and the world... That's Honorable .
Beck accuses a man who is half white or Caucasian as having a deep seated hatred for white people or the white culture yet all Obama ever knew was white culture he was raised by his white mother and white grand parents.Fox & Friends July 28,2009 Sarah Palin who tweeted on August 20 that Dr. Laura's Schlessinger first amendment rights were threatened because the public complained about Dr. Laura use of the word Nigger 11 times on the air, Palin's advice: "don't retreat...reload!" Steps aside bc her 1st Amend.rights ceased 2exist thx 2activists trying 2silence"isn't American,not fair") not fair for her not to be able to use the N word. ... That's Honorable.
Who was Dr. King?
The March on Washington in 1963 was a historic event that put the United States treatment of its citizens of color on notice before the world. Dr. King on that day became public enemy number one to J. Edgar Hoover and the Klan and any crazy kook who had a gun and felt black Americans are now a serious threat to their financial supremacy of white Americans. King was called a Communist , a Marxist, Radical, Hates his Country and of course the famous N word ...sound familiar ?
March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom
This was the real name of the 1963 March not just the "March on Washington" as it is commonly called or the "I Have a Dream Speech" which really limits the speech to one particular sentence "I have a dream that my four children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character."
This may be the most commonly quote but other portions of the sixteen minute speech were just as significant. If one examines the speech from beginning to end you will discover that there are portions of the speech that would make those member of the Tea Party and Beck followers cringe.
1. "America has defaulted on a promissory note insofar as her citizens of color are
concerned. Instead of honoring this sacred obligation, America has given the Negro people a bad check which has come back marked " insufficient funds "
2. "Don't ignore us it would be fatal for the nation to overlook the urgency of the moment and to underestimate the determination of the Negro"
3." Those who hope that the Negro needed to blow off steam and will now be content will have a rude awakening if the nation returns to business as usual.
4. There will be neither rest nor tranquility in America until the Negro is granted his citizenship rights.
5. The whirlwinds of revolt will continue to shake the foundations of our nation until the bright day of justice emerges
6. In the process of gaining our rightful place we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds. Let
us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and
hatred.
7. There are those who are asking the devotees of civil rights, "When will you be satisfied?"
In these comments and questions Dr. King is prophetic , how was he to know the challenges people of color would be facing .
No, no, we are not satisfied, and we will not be satisfied until justice rolls down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream.
but truth be told it was Becks tester for 2012 will he be able to repeat this again before the 2012 presidential elections. Beck has successfully sealed his place in the psyche of the Christian conservative , the Tea Party , and to their

I'm been hearing about the Restoring Horror rally for a long time and it didn't do anything. Many of the attendants referred to America as a Christian nation. They know little to nothing about the Founding Fathers, the Bill of Rights or the Constitution. America is not a Christian nation but a nation for all religions. I did print out and read Dr. King's I Have a Dream speech. He was so inspirational. Catherine Mims Yamaguchi
This si a really good article about who is funding the Te Party and how they are trying to disrupt Obama's presidency.
