On The Same Day: Which One Is Authentic? Reclaiming the Dream, Or Restoring Honor.

Calling Out Glenn Beck.


Fox News' Glenn Beck planned a rally at the Lincoln Memorial on the anniversary of Dr. King's I Have A Dream Speech.

Can Someone Get This Guy Some Prozac? Beck Needs It.

Beck claims he didn't plan to have his 'restore honor to America' rally on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial on the 47th anniversary at the site of Dr. Martin Luther King's I Have a Dream Speech.

Given the above facts, it sounds premeditated to me.

Not only did he plan it, he orchestrated the event to the tea (literally), even to include King's neice, Dr. Alveda King.  At what other moment in time has Beck ever called on Dr. Alveda King?  I'll bet none. 

To add insult to injury Beck has Sarah (I-can't-form-a-single-thought-in-my-head-everything-that-comes-out-my-mouth-makes-me-sound-like-an-idiot) Palin on the list as a speaker.

What the world needs now:  Is NOT another Sarah Palin speech.

Hey, Beck! If you want to restore 'honor' to America (if you believe it really had any) then stop being America's hate monger.

Beck is the epitome of a TV host on steroids. He is America's obsessive-compulsive disorder: a bothersome thought (in this case, a person) that won't go away with the need to perform (self-serving) actions over and over again.

So, when you start to think about all the variables involved in Beck's scheme, you'll find it's not about restoring America's honor.  It's deeper than that.  It's really Beck, and his supporters, saying "I don't like the idea of a mosque being built at the site of New York's 9/11 attack.  (After all, you wouldn't hold a reenactment of a plane hitting the Pentagon and call it restoring honor in the name of those who died there).  Additionally, Beck doesn't like the fact that President Obama hasn't spoken out against it. (He's called the president a racist).

The building of a mosque to honor a group of people that allegedly killed Americans is an insult to Beck (and most others, understandably).  And to Beck, he thinks he must also insult.

Who could he possibly insult in the worse way? Those who honor America's most revered human being.

Why else would he pick the exact location, on the exact date?  To call the Beck event a 'coincident' just makes Beck look like what he is. A liar.

With Labor Day just around the corner, he could have just as well called a 'Restore Honor To America' rally during Labor Day weekend.  

Call it 'Restore Jobs To America' day.  America needs more of that, than the hate Beck spews.

As Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. said in the very speech being honored and remebered this weekend, "We must not be guilty of wrongful deeds.  Let us not seek to find our search for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred."

In wake of the Zika virus, travel, spring break still O.K.

Representatives from the CDC and the NIH were on hand at the White House during Monday's press briefing to update the public and address concerns over the Zika virus that has caused some babies to be born with deformities. Dr. Anne Schuchat from the Centers for Disease Control and Dr. Tony Fauci from the National Institutes of Health told reporters that a vaccine is in the making.   The pair also said they are particulary concerned about women who are pregnant, or plan to get pregnant, who have either traveled to or plan to travel to areas of South America and the Carribean known to have the Zika virus. Despite those bold statements, the doctors said there is no wide-spread concern and that Americans should continue to travel, including during upcoming college spring breaks --  when college students travel to warmer climate destinations to escape winter weather. "Travel to Zika-affected areas is very common among Americans, and we don’t think that needs to stop...

ACA Health Care Operator Fired For Doing Her Job?

More woes for the Obama administration's roll out of HealthCare.gov .    During the president's weekly address he urged Americans to call a toll-free number to get help enrolling in a health care plan as the website continues to be 'improved'. Said the president, "But even as we improve the website, remember that the website isn’t the only way to apply for coverage under these new plans.  We’ve updated HealthCare.gov to offer more information about enrolling over the phone, by mail, or in person with a specially-trained navigator who can help answer your questions.  Just call 1-800-318-2596 or visit LocalHelp.HealthCare.gov .       No sooner than the president gives out the 800 number for Americans to speak to one of the 'specially-trained navigators', one of them  gets fired, perhaps loosing her own healthcare benefits. Her malfeasance?  Talking to talk show host Sean Hannity. Hannity called the 800 number with his...

Saying goodbye to Mrs. Robinson, mother of First Lady Michelle Obama.

The woman who made her mark as grandma-in-chief when President Barack Obama was elected 44th president of the United States, passed Friday. The woman who was considered the backbone of the Obama household will be remembered as a family-oriented, kind person, who remained poised as she assumed the responsibility of helping raise her two beautiful granddaughters in an environment, and in a world, far from what she ever imagined. Mrs. Marian Robinson, mother of First Lady Michelle Obama,  waves to reporters during Easter egg hunt at the White House. (photo CD Brown) I recall seeing her that day in March during Women's History Month at the Smithsonian when her daughter's Inaugural gown, like all the other first lady inaugural gowns,  was being cemented in Smithsonian history . She was smiling as she walked alone prompting me to ask, "is there no security, no secret service, for the first grandmother?"
