Can A Coup Ever Take Place In America?
By admin on Aug 27, 2009 in Blogging, Politics, Social Networking
Reality smacks us all in the head now my friends. Watch this news video and you will understand. Here is just August 25th. In 5 parts. Tell all you know watch Glen Beck and please find anything incorrect in what he says. Anything at all. No one is contesting the facts. All enemies of this nation can say is ‘Beck is Crazy’. Something scary is going on and if you invest just 10 minutes in your country’s future by watching the first video. Then you decide if it is worth watching the others. I would bet that you’ll go to YouTube and watch Wednesday’s episode, today’s and especially tomorrow watch it live . Glen puts it all together for you. It is amazing what is taking place right before our eyes. We said it would never happen here.
America be vigilant and stay informed. Time to start tuning out most of the mainstream media if you haven’t already. Freedom hangs in the balance and the ‘REAL’ communists are in place as Czars, people who want to overthrow America, who love Chavez and Marx and so on.Whatever you do you can do one thing that will safeguard America. Simply exercise your Constitutional right to bear arms and NEVER give up that right for any government. Especially when the ‘incident’ or terrorist attack’ takes place in the coming months or after the elections of November 2010. I hate even thinking such thoughts, that we have to watch our own government very closely for fear of losing our basic freedoms. Why did we let this happen I keep asking myself.

Like Glenn’s spoken about, there are 400,000 ACORN employees and others who troll the net and just throw out BS like that without taking ANY specific thing he says to debate. Is anything incorrect? Be specific as I’d like to know. So yeah keep up the Alinsky name calling. People are on to you morons and Alinsky and the defamation. It isn’t working you little insects.

I still don’t understand why the left thinks people don’t know about Alinsky now and his tactics to bring about socialism in America. It is always attack the person, not what they are saying. This will not work in any circle that I am in. None….not a single person either except a committed leftist and they represent a mere 20% of Americans.

Do all of us a favor an get sterilized, “Kurt”, you mindless paid ACORN shill. Obamatards like you give waterheads a bad name. You probably didn’t even watch or mull over the content. Typical Dem – deep as a sheet of paper.

What is interesting is the military also knows this and the majority in all branches have all spoken about scenarios that they can face. They will be on the side of the people. This is another important reason why Obama needs his own police force.

when exactly did “radical” become a slur in this country?

I don’t visit this website, and I don’t watch Glen Beck, I don’t watch television at all really, but I am curious.
I also want to ask: where else do you get your news from? Can you recommend any other outlets?
- You tell us to “turn off most mainstream media.” I don’t imagine that includes Glen Beck. Why not?
- Just watching several minutes of Glen Beck I am put off. It appears to me that he is playing a character, and not so much discussing or inspecting a view, but explaining what you should do and believe. Am I wrong?
- Also, he says that it is very important to “question the government.” That I completely believe in, but were you questioning the government when we were going to war in Iraq?
Those are just a few basic questions. I’d really like to hear back from you so I’ll come back to this site periodically to check for answers.
Thanks.

Jason,
Turn off main stream media because the majority of it is either lies or half truths. Glenn Beck should be watched because no one else is saying the things he is saying. I know, maybe it’s because he’s wrong, right? If this was true someone if not many people would be setting things straight. Beck is killing in the ratings which means people are listening. Government would dispute these wild accusations if they were false. Hell, the government would usually dispute true accusations, but they know that there is simply no excuse for their actions. So they attack him instead of his theories.
Beck is simply asking the American people to question what is happening and form honest opinions about it. These things are happening. If you are okay with them fine, you are the enemy. If you are just unwilling to see the writing on the wall because you voted democrat or maybe you trust government, you need to wake up. This country is changing, and not the change anyone should believe in.

Our last election was a coup. The marxist forces now in power have set about destroying our constitution and tearing down all we stand for. Meanwhile the figurehead of the enemy feels he doesn’t even have to show his eligibility for the office he has stolen. He is not concerned about the next election because he doesn’t intend for it to take place. The best part is when you see what is going on you’ll be ridiculed and laughed at for saying it. Read Alinsky, the tactic is clearly outlined.
One last item. We are currently adding troops to Afganistan at an alarming rate. All that is accomplished by this is to remove thousands of seasoned combat ready troops from home. Troops who are not sympathetic to our marxist “leader”, his unelected czars and the hate America first party who controls both houses right now. This is also why he needs a civilian (private) force as well armed,trained and equipped as the military. I ask you to remember that rahm said there could be a draft to fill this force.
This is the CHANCE YOU CAN DEPEND ON. Enjoy it!

Shameful. Glenn Beck has been shown time and time again to be rabble-rousing fool, and yet he still gets airtime.
Listen, probably nice and rapidly aging woman who runs this site. The internet is a neat place. Please leave the poison on the poison channel, and don’t spread it around here.
Admin says: – Notice the Alinsky BS at it again. Never do they attack the specific facts, just attack and name call. We see exactly what you idiots on the left have been doing and it no longer works. By the way the old admin was a female, I am a male not that it matters since all you people can do is launch personal attacks. Watch each week as your God Obama declines in the polls as your media can’t help him. The American people know the game now and all of your fake name calling does nothing to stop us from spreading the word. Challenge a fact that Beck says rather than him personally and really debate instead of name calling. You, Obama and Alinsky’s followers will all fail miserably and the red tide will be turned back.

The rapidly escalating attacks against Glen Beck show how fearful the left is of him. As you said in the comments, the attacks never refute facts, but only attack personality. This was the same set of tactics used against Sarah Palin, the last person to scare them so much.
All I can say is, please watch the Glen Beck show, and use your own mind to judge rather than the “everyone knows” “common knowledge,” which is common only because the main stream media repeats it so often. An oft-repeated lie is still a lie.

A British perspective:
Yes, turn off your mainstream media. All of it. Glenn Beck is one of a cast of insincere and obnoxious opinion makers, on both sides of the political spectrum. While much news journalism and investigation around the world leaves a lot to be desired, in the US television, radio and print is practically devoid of information, it is all opinion, mostly speculation at that.
The job of journalists in these media is to inform – to give you facts, to share comment and analysis from experts. It is very concerning to see how little there is of this in the US. The assault on principles of democratic representation and freedom of information has been underway for many years.
Could a coup ever take place in America? Of course it could. It has happened already.

“Time to start tuning out most of mainstream media…”
Yes, like Glen Beck and the rest Fox News. And in the interested of fairness, most of CNN should also be tuned out. Stick with PBS and NPR, since those are the few major outlets funded largely and directly by us, the public.
Also, a coup can, and DID happen in America. In 1776. A coup isn’t necessarily a bad thing.
Dobbshead | Sep 4, 2009 | Reply
It’s interesting that there are still people who reflexively fear the words: Marxism and Socialism. His case is simple: these people have played with Socialist ideologies, therefore they are bad people and destroying America. His whole case rests on the baseless assertion that liberal ideologies are bad. As he said in the show, question fearlessly.

Very insightful. Does that mean that the only car companies we can trust are GM and Chrysler? I assume that the only health system we should trust is government run. We really should trust the Czars and Advisor’s vetted by the Executive Branch (Communists and all) without question because we are paying for it.
Thank God for Fox News. I don’t care if it’s slanted or not. At least it gives me information that I can verify its accuracy for myself. Where are the other media outlets?
One last thing. Review the above comments. While the Beck supporters referred to his research, his detractors did not support a single comment with a fact. Prove him wrong and we’ll respect your opinion. I’m sick of personal attacks, racist allegations and Constitutional abuse – most with no basis. What ever happened to intelligent, factual dialogue?

@ Jason (If you come back to check…)
- You tell us to “turn off most mainstream media.” I don’t imagine that includes Glen Beck. Why not? Glenn is not mainstream, he is definitely against the mainstream. I actually think you should get both sides. That way you will start to see the discrepancies…
- Just watching several minutes of Glen Beck I am put off. It appears to me that he is playing a character, and not so much discussing or inspecting a view, but explaining what you should do and believe. Am I wrong? I actually think you are. Belive me he is a passionate crybaby. But a smart as hell, and NON PARTY LINE kinda guy.
- Also, he says that it is very important to “question the government.” That I completely believe in, but were you questioning the government when we were going to war in Iraq? Yes he very much was. He is not a pro bush guy.
@ Joe – PBS and NPR are funded by us, and ran by the Govt. The government (In my opinion) runs most things poorly and inefficiently. Ask most people if the DMV, Welfare office, Airport TIA, etc could be run better, and what they would do. I would wager that 90% of the people you ask could think for 5 minutes or less and come up with some solutions to ease and streamline these processes. The government doesn’t.
In disclosure I have been a GB fan since 2001 or 2. I listened to him regularly along with Neil Boortz. I like them because they dont stand to the “Our party does only right, and thier party does only wrong.” mentality that a lot of commentators have.
@ admin… Great post. I stumbled on you, and will now spend a while perusing you site. I mean I just watched an hour of GB…

Four mins into the first clip and the man still has not stated any facts or asked a question. 7 mins into it and I hear this phrase “Radical Leftists” is that opposed to “Radical Rightist”? How about “Radical Moderates”?
He also takes a quote, and never places it into the context of the piece it was taken out of. When I first read it, it seemed to me that thy where talking about training they where doing to better understand something. But I’ll never know because he presented the quote as a stand-alone idea.
The lack of actual content and the seemingly unending rambling from this fella makes me not want to watch the other clips. There have been things NOT done that said he would that is a bit upsetting to me. But this gratuitous fear mongering is a bit overdone.
TimothyNY | Sep 10, 2009 | Reply
Glenn is the man. Fear mongering one man said like what? Is it fear mongering to be the only person who pointed out a real communist put into a White House post by President Obama. That very communist was ignored by the media except Beck and FOX. That is not fear mongering, it is called reporting. The NY Times and CBS and the commie NBC really should start doing it again. If they don’t they will all go out of business as Americans have smartened up to their playing games with the facts.
We are now in an age where reporting is ‘fear mongering’ and had Beck not reported on all of the Marxist Czars being installed, then what?
Amazing | Sep 10, 2009 | Reply
What I find interesting is how the Democrats are now the party of Marxism. It is not the party of my family any longer. How is it that they are so comfortable with these nuts that Obama has advising him? Glenn Beck is asking questions and all the Democrats can do is attack him personally and hire private investigators to go into his private life. How about addressing the facts like this guy who really does want to ban meat and attack American values.
Frontpage Magazine has a great article on.

Read this and start understanding that the Democratic Party has been hijacked by Marxists. They will fail.

You people are so humorous. You think Glenn Beck gives two shits about any of you? He is an entertainer. Pure and simple. People like Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh are entertainers. Period. They get paid millions upon millions of dollars to spout vile nonsense that gets eaten up by gullible and paranoid individuals such as yourselves. For instance, calling the President, who was raised by his white mother and white grandparents, racist toward white people. Unfuckingbelievable. Or Rush Limbaugh openly hoping the President fails.
I find it interesting how the Republican party was the “Love it or leave it” crowd under our previous president (who doesn’t ever seemed to be mentioned anymore) but now that a legitimately elected Democrat is in office, they are ready for open revolution. You people are ridiculous.

The real question is: who said our country was a capitalist one? As far as I know, there is no provision in the constitution that declares the United States a capitalist nation.
I do recognize that we the “right to property” but Marxism does not take away your property, but rather return to the worker the fruits of his labor rather than allowing the profit to be siphoned off by a financial upper-class, i.e. bankers, stock holders, CEOs, etc.
So if our nation is not essentially capitalist, then how it is it an attack on the nation to promote communist or anti-capitalist ideas? Government itself, the very idea of government, is anti-capitalist, since it is founded on the idea of people working together for the public good. (wow, I never realized how “communist” that sounds)
This is what this is about: a debate about the idea of government, the best way to ensure the rights and liberties of the American people.
The problem with individuals like Glen Beck is not that they are wrong (I do not have the credentials to either prove or disprove his claims), but the terms in which they pose the debate. Obama is not “taking over America”–he was elected democratically by the same election process that has elected every president we have had.
If the people want Communism, it is the role of the government to provide it for them. Thus, Glen Beck is posing a democratically elected government as the “enemy”, essentially legitimizing any violence or aggression towards its members.
What we have tried to do in most civilized societies is to pose the debate not in terms of a “real” nation and one that is “attacking” it, but to debate the policies and actions that are most likely to ensure our life, liberty and pursuit of happiness.
From reading the comments from those who have criticized Beck and his ilk, I assume that the response to my comment will be to say that I’m from Acorn, and that I didn’t address the “facts” under discussion. To this I merely suggest that this is equally an ad hominem attack as is to suggest that Mr. Beck is crazy and therefore should be avoided on your own terms. Second, I did not mention the facts because I do not contend them. Rather, I suggest that (perhaps) the facts are indeed facts, and that (perhaps) a Socialist or Communist future is good for America.
And this is where you are invited to respond and where Mr. Beck has not advanced beyond those to advance criticism against him and whom you reject. Mr. Beck, and his followers, have conflated America with capitalism. Thus, it is to be assumed that they believe that capitalism is the best path for the nation to follow. But would you please, rather than denouncing me and my fellow Leftists as Communists, lay out your central criticisms of both Communism as a economic-political structure and as a theoretical framework as developed in the forms of Marxism, Leninism, and Maoism? Furthermore, I would be interested in hearing your thoughts on the neo-Marxism of Antontio Negri or the post-Marxism of Slavoj Zizek.
Stumbled here, but will bookmark to check responses. I eagerly await a discussion of the relative merits and faults of Marx and neo-Marxism, as well as Locke, A. Smith and neo-Liberalism.

PS. In other words, instead of assuming that is an insult or un-American to be a communist, could you tell me why its so bad or un-American?

Seems as Glens views and facts don’t use all the media only Fox news and conservative talk radio and tv if you want to use the media use it all not just the parts that serve your income wish I could make your income by being a conservative gone overboard. Whether you like Obama or not he is our President why have so many forgotten to show him the respect someone that the majority of this country elected. Become real Americans and do ask questions but show respect and when you find the answer defend it.
JB – The media is no longer telling us basic facts. They ar omitting news. For instance the entire Van Jones affair. NY Times and CNN and ABC neglected to even mention his name until he resigned. This is the point, he would not have resigned had not Glenn Beck and FOX and the bloggers simply googled him and brought up his own recent videos.
Same with the 9/12 rally in D.C. notice how the media ignored mostly? That is why they are dying and FOX and the bloggers are rising. Investigative reporting died in America and the Leftist or elitist (formerly known as mainstream but in fact they are far from mainstream) media is now an organ of the Democratic Socialists and Communists. Americans know this and can point to simple things like this as evidence.
FOX and Beck Investigate whereas NBC says what it is told. Americans understand what propaganda is and every week now examples are rising and word of mouth alone is enough to sink the elitist media. That is why they are all going out of business while the people who still report and investigate are rising.
If you want a current story that will not go away, check out ACORN and their rampant fraud and how NY Times even now simply tries to avoid the entire issue, even though this criminal organization is set to get 8.5 billion of our tax dollars. If this isn’t scary I don’t know what is to you then.
The people know what is up and there is nothing Obama and the Elitist dying media can do any longer now. All they can do is play their propaganda games and watch their viewers and readers leave as they now do daily.

Karl – communism is completely anti-American and against our Constitution. You are right about America not being a capitalist country. We are more socialist and have been for decades now. As we descend more and more into Socialism we decay. Communism is anti-freedom, anti-individual. Communism literally is suited for insects, not human beings that think or wish to be free and live their own lives without being told how and where to live their lives by you or anyone else.
For anyone to even take the position that communism is somehow good is rather sad to me.
Karl | Sep 16, 2009 | Reply
“communism is completely anti-American and against our Constitution. ” Where and how does the Constitution prevent communism?
I have reasons for thinking Marxism is a valid philosophy and the intellectual developments that led to the central tenets of communism are sound. I am happy to provide them for you. We can have an intellectual debate about the relative values of the systems we support.
“For anyone to even take the position that communism is somehow good is rather sad to me.” Why? How? These are the questions I originally posed, and which you avoided by merely asserting the “fact” that communism is “completely un-American”.
I am willing to listen; please illuminate my vision which has apparently been blinded by “Commie propaganda” or something. I am willing to accept arguments that suggest that communism is un-American; but they have to be that: arguments. You can not merely assert it (or the “fact” that communism is “anit-freedom”) and convince anyone. Especially not me.
But I will not accuse you of being anti-American, or anti-freedom, or that your beliefs are “sad” to hold, because I believe that people are entitled to their positions, and in a democracy, the open exchange of ideas is necessary to bring the nation forward. So let us engage in an open exchange of ideas, one of the most fundamental principles of American democracy, free speech, and open elections. Without calling each other names, huh?
Karl | Sep 20, 2009 | Reply
I guess my second request for a reasoned answer, and not a mere assertion was too controversial for you, as I see you would not let it be posted.
Allow me to try again: instead of assuming that is an insult or un-American to be a communist, could you tell me why its so bad or un-American? Instead of asserting “communism is completely anti-American and against our Constitution”, could you please tell me why it is against the Constitution?
If you refuse to post my question again, and refuse to answer my questions, I can only assume that the question is threatening to you because you cannot provide an answer. Thus, your silence and censorship become all the answers I need.
You need not allow this through your moderation filter–as I said before, silence is an answer, too–but I assume that it will allow your fellow travelers a greater chance to provide the answer that you have thus far been unable to.
But if you persist in the attacks and defamation without reason (in the literal sense of the word–since you have failed to provide reasons for your claims thus far), then I can only wish that you fail in your campaign of fear and hate mongering.

The problem here is not the information presented by these editorial shows like Beck’s – the problem is with the complete lack of critical analysis on the part of his viewers..
This can be said of any of the mainstream pundits, on either side – The Democrats follow their media cheerleaders with just as much enthusiasm and just as little critical review.
I do not encourage people to turn off the mainstream media – in fact you should watch more – but also, and this is critically important – also watch and read news from other places in the world. Read papers who espouse opinions that you don’t find appealing – watch talk show hosts who present info you don’t find compelling – as well as those who do.
You will quickly find that our (American) media does an abysmal job of presenting the facts, and these shows that offer themselves as “news” are anything but…
