SummerSnow's JournalGLENN BECK IN HIS OWN WORDS: I’LL SAVE MORE PEOPLE THAN SCHINDLER
http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/09/14/glenn-beck-in-his-own-words-ill-save-more-people-than-schindler/In a long and often emotional interview with Ginni Thomas before his speech on Thursday at the Rally against the Iran Deal in Washington, D.C., Glenn Beck explained his mission to relocate Syrian refugees fleeing ISIS into the United States, even if that requires facilitating their illegal entry and his imprisonment.
“I asked if my audience could raise $10 million before Christmas to bring the Christians in from Syria,” Beck explained. “We will vet them ourselves. We have former CIA people that are going over and they’re vetting everybody right now. We can save more people by Christmas than Oscar Schindler saved. Okay? Well, what are you going to do with them? What are you going to do with them? How are you going to get them in here? State Department won’t let them in. Really? Because I know some bridges over a river in Texas that doesn’t seem to matter. It doesn’t seem to matter. And if they want to say, ‘Now you can’t bring those people in, now you can’t, that’s somehow illegal, we’ll put you in jail’ – I will so gladly grace a jail for the justice cause of saving people’s lives. I don’t need your permission at all to do the right thing! That’s who we need to be now! Forget about Washington! You don’t need permission to do the right thing.”
Beck, who has vocalized his support for the plight of illegal immigrants crossing the U.S.-Mexico border, even going so far as to organize the distribution of teddy bears, soccer balls, and hot meals to illegal immigrants detained at the border last summer, got emotional discussing the Middle East migrant crisis engulfing Europe.
“‘I hold my lamp beside her golden door,’” Beck cried, reciting a line from the Emma Lazarus poem at the base of the Statue of Liberty. “When we don’t welcome in the tempest tossed. When we can watch them and see a boy laying face down in the sand and we don’t accept them into our country, we don’t have a light that we’re holding by that door anymore. This is a sacred land, and God’s plan will be enacted. God’s will will be done, and he’ll do it with or without us. We must choose to be on his side.”
Beck characterized current events as part of a struggle of good versus evil that he feels compelled to address.
“I’m not a preacher. I’m really under-qualified for everything I’ve ever done,” Beck explained. “But I know this, and I’ve seen it coming for more than 10 years, that there will come a time that the Lord will say, ‘I can’t protect you any more.’ He’s not going to punish us. He’s going to allow us to feel the full ramification of our choice. And that time is here. And I’m not here to change the minds and the hearts of anybody in Congress, any political person, any press person—I think my speech is going to sound like Chinese to most people in Washington and in the media.”
Beginning to tear up, Beck continued, “But I’m here so I will be seen by the Almighty God, that my family will see their father stand. And that hopefully Americans that have eyes to see and ears to hear will understand it’s time now.”
Beck’s message has shifted towards issues of faith, which he sees as divinely serendipitous. “God’s timeline and our timeline has now just connected. We’re now on his timeline. This is the time that we were born for. It’s remarkable. And I can feel it happening,” he said.
“What I’m trying to do right now is work on uniting people of different faiths,” Beck explained. “We don’t have to mix, nor should we mix, our theologies or disregard the differences we have in theology. But [God is] calling all of God’s people together to stand right now. And I’ve done enough homework and enough history to realize what point we’re at right now, and I refuse to be the church that stood and said, ‘Sing louder’ when the trains packed with the Jews go by.”
When asked why Obama’s poll numbers are still so high, Beck answered, “Because we live at the time of warning. Woe to those who make good evil, and evil good.”
When Thomas mentioned how many projects Beck has going currently, he joked, “I don’t sleep a lot.”
We are here right now more than ever...

Another dumb statement courtesy of Pat Robertson
Pat Robertson Blames The Gays For The Stock Market PlungeNow that she's been taken into custody, Kim Davis can rest assured: she's got a friend in Pat Robertson.
Robertson defended the Kentucky county clerk, who has refused to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples following the Supreme Court's June 26 ruling that legalized same-sex marriage nationwide, in a Sept. 2 installment of "The 700 Club," Right Wing Watch reports. The right-wing televangelist, who has been an outspoken opponent of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community for some time, yearned for the days that homosexuality was still illegal in America.
"There was a time that homosexuality was considered an aberration," Robertson said. "It was illegal, as a matter of fact, and the thought of two homosexuals marrying one another was just undreamed of, we couldn’t even conceive of it."
He then pointed to turmoil in the global stock market as being somehow tied to same-sex marriage.
"Our finances right now are hanging by a thread," he said. "The rupture of the entire financial framework of our world is so tenuous right now. If there is was ever a time that we need the grace of God, it is now, and unless something is done to change the courts and to change the way this country is going, it is just a question of time before the fabric ruptures and we’ll all suffer because of it."
Less than two weeks ago, Robertson made slightly different, though equally eyebrow-raising, claims by tying Planned Parenthood to "Black Monday," August 24's historic stock market plunge.
"Here in America, we have been complicit in terminating the lives of in excess of 50 million precious unborn children," he said. "And don't you think almighty God is going to hold us accountable for that? It's coming, ladies and gentleman. We just have a little taste of it in terms of the financial system, but it's going to get shaken to its core in the next few months, years or however long it takes, and it will hurt every one of us."
You're gonna need to be a little bit more convincing, Pat.

Campaign 2016: The Angry White Man’s Last Stand
When Donald Trump says, “Let’s make America great again,” is he feeding into a segment of the population that is really saying, “Let’s make it white again”?
BY: CHARLES D. ELLISON
Posted: Aug. 31 2015 3:50 PM
Sanders (always quick to big-up his civil rights bona fides) commands massive crowds of millennials in places like Portland, Ore., where fewer black faces are found than those in the first Republican debate, rolling out a racial-justice plan in a city barely 6 percent black. Less talked about is what exactly makes Sanders qualified for a diverse Democratic Party nomination when he has represented a state for decades that has fewer than 8,000 black people in it.
But in that sense, it’s not so much angry as it is downright frustrated white people led by the downright frustrated white man. Not necessarily bigotry in our wake, yet, also, another form of loud, white populism; whereby at the end of a recessionary day, there are huge pockets of once safely privileged white folks (especially young ones) who now know what it feels like to lose everything.
Trump, of course, is unapologetic-and-rugged white nationalism. Yet he has rebranded it into anti-immigrant rants as clever coding for people of color as a whole; “Make America great again” snuggled up close to a whispered, “Make it more white again” (translated: Let’s get this back under control).
Notice, though, Trump’s very laser-targeted aim regarding whom he publicly shoves around, a calculus that assumes that to bully politically unrepresented “illegals” is much easier than thrashing quick-to-organize blacks. But his crowds get it, and play along. Trump gives no apologies when called on the suspiciously bigoted static of his rhetoric and followers, tapping into xenophobia as a core belief system, talking proudly of the violent “passion” of hate-criming white guys in Boston who “follow” him, while his representative creatively avoids criticizing folks who yell “White power” at said Alabama event.
A key question: Where did that sudden spurt of xenophobia come from in the first place? A 2014 Brookings/PRRI study (pdf) unveiled the reticence of many whites faced with overblown feelings of electoral insignificance. When asked about whether “the idea of an America where most people are not white bothers me,” roughly 20 percent of whites said it did, along with 33 percent of Republicans and 19 percent of Americans overall. Interestingly enough, a solid 15 percent of Democrats said they were, too, shattering myths of the left as being completely comfortable in its feel-good-on-race skin.
Republicans are acutely aware of this change as they see the writing on the wall, smelling a pronounced existential threat in 2020, when the combined “minority” electorate will be 30 percent or more. The white vote will be down even more, to 69 percent, a dramatic drop from 88 percent in 1976 and 72 percent in 2012. A majority of American children under the age of 18 will be “nonwhite,” and by 2060, the total population will be 60 percent of color.
In essence, it’s a sweaty, red-faced paranoia and fear of the rapidly changing complexion of the nation, an inability to grasp demographic realities perceived as impending doom. White politicos like Trump feverishly work against that clock; fear of the nation’s rapidly changing complexion his Oz-like trick. Darkly comical is the collective reaction of a media-industrial complex feigning shock at what went amiss and why the nation seems so willing to go off script and crash in brush fire glory. But paraphrasing the immortal words of old-school strategist James Carville: “It’s the white people, stupid.”

5-Year-Old's Sweet Song Brings Great-Grandma With Dementia 'Back To Life' *get the tissues out*
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/5-year-olds-sings-you-are-my-sunshine-to-grandma-with-dementia_55e70b55e4b0b7a9633afa03Yagana Shah

A little girl's kind gesture brought a smile to her dementia-stricken great-grandmother's face. Five-year-old Sophie Flynn from Ireland was taken by her parents to meet her great-grandma Brenda Brock, 82, for the first time recently and took everyone by surprise when, instead of being frightened by her granny's condition, she warmed up to her instantly.
Sophie's parents say Grandma Brenda is in the advanced stages of dementia and she can be startled by unfamiliar people, they told The Mirror.
But those fears were laid to rest when Sophie began singing to her great-grandmother upon meeting her. "You are my sunshine, my only sunshine," Sophie sang, stroking Brenda's face and making her smile. Sophie ended the song by giving her great-grandmother a cuddle and several kisses, and both were clearly delighted.
"Sophie brought her back to life," Sophie's mother, Sarah Miller, told The Mirror. "It was amazing, we just couldn't believe it. When they were together it was like they were the only two people in the room."
The entire song was captured on video by Sophie's grandpa, Sandy Miller, who uploaded the video to YouTube where it has since gotten over 4,000 views.
Singing and music have been shown to have therapeutic effects on dementia patients, helping to improve moods, reduce agitation and boost cognitive function. There are even non-profit organizations, such as Music & Memory, set up primarily to bring music and iPods to dementia patients.
Bobby Jindal: Hillary Clinton Is One Email Away From Going To Jail (video)
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2015/08/31/bobby_jindal_hillary_clinton_is_one_email_away_from_going_to_jail.html
Governor Bobby Jindal said, “She seems to think the same rules don't apply to her that apply to the others… The real issue here is, she's not above the law. The real issue is that, if any private in the military, if any other government official, had handled classified information the way she is said to have handled classified information, there would have been a court martial… maybe even criminal prosecution… there would have certainly been consequences. She shouldn’t be above the law. There shouldn’t be a different set of rules for our elected leaders than for the rest of us.”
* 1% poller Jindal is one debate away from dropping out the race* lol
Interesting reading. 'Behind Donald Trump’s Dangerous Worldview'
Matt K. Lewis
Senior Contributor:
http://dailycaller.com/2015/08/12/weve-seen-donald-trumps-dangerous-worldview-before/
A recent Newsweek piece asked “Is Donald Trump a Fascist?” Another column at The Week (where I’m a contributing editor) is titled: “How Nietzsche explains the rise of Donald Trump.” These are just two examples of the many “think” pieces examining the dangerous roots behind Trump’s style and ideology (to the degree he has an ideology). To put it mildly, the criticism transcends concerns about populism that might have been found in William Jennings Bryan, or even Ross Perot.
But I’m less alarmed by Trump than I am by the fact that he has tapped into something.Trump’s gonna Trump—that’s just how it is. But the scary part is that a pretty good slice of the public is falling for what could (if one finds the term “fascist” to be overwrought) fairly be described as demagoguery.
Of course, the fascist label has been bandied about as a catch-all slur against “people we don’t like.” But it actually means something fairly specific. And Newsweek made the case for why it’s not an inappropriate designation for Trumpism:
In the 19th century, this penchant for industrial protectionism and mercantilism became guild socialism, which mutated later into fascism and then into Nazism. You can read Mises to find out more on how this works.
… This is how strongmen take over countries. They say some true things, boldly, and conjure up visions of national greatness under their leadership. They’ve got the flags, the music, the hype, the hysteria, the resources, and they work to extract that thing in many people that seeks heroes and momentous struggles in which they can prove their greatness.
Over at The Week, Damon Linker sees a parallel to Nietzsche.
Nietzsche understood himself to be reviving what he called the morality of the strong against the morality of the weak — the outlook that has prevailed in the West ever since Jesus Christ inspired a “slave revolt in morality.” Before then, the strong preyed on the weak at will, and both parties took for granted that this was the natural order of things. But Christ taught a different lesson, one rooted in the resentment of history’s victims: the cruelty of the strong is a sin, God loves the powerless most of all, the winners deserve to lose, and the meek deserve to win. And they will.
Linker doesn’t go there, but it’s worth noting that fascists like Hitler and Mussolini, channeling Nietzsche, believed in a sort of “übermensch.”
This worldview is at odds with a Christian philosophy that involves caring for “even the least among us” and believes in compassion and human dignity for everyone — even immigrants, “losers,” the weak, and … the unborn. Trump’s own words betray this sort of Nietzschean weltanschauung. Consider his explanation for becoming pro-life. These are his words:
And I am pro-life. And if you look at the question, I was in business. They asked me a question as to pro-life or choice. And I said if you let it run, that I hate the concept of abortion. I hate the concept of abortion. And then since then, I’ve very much evolved.
And what happened is friends of mine years ago were going to have a child, and it was going to be aborted. And it wasn’t aborted. And that child today is a total superstar, a great, great child. And I saw that. And I saw other instances. - The Author
The obvious question that everyone has been asking: What if that child wasn’t a superstar?
The suggestion, I think, is that some people are winners and some people are losers. This leads to a form of Social Darwinism. Weak people shouldn’t be allowed to drag down the “winners.” I don’t have to tell you where, taken to the extremes, these ideas can ultimately take us.
But again, my concern isn’t that Trump exists, for such men have always existed, but rather, that a good chunk of the public (and even more concerning, the conservative movement — which ought to reflect a more Christian worldview) are falling for this. I’m not worried that Trump is Hitler, or even Mussolini. But I am worried that we have arrived at a time when a sizable chunk of the American public is so simultaneously frustrated and naive as to fall for populist demagoguery. And I worry where that could take us some day.
And, of course, many conservatives are falling for Trumpism hook, line, and sinker — despite the fact that he offers no specifics or details. You just have to trust that — because he is brilliant and successful (and because the current establishment politicians are stupid and corrupt) — he will magically solve all our problems. Even his slogan, “Make America Great Again” evokes a sort of nostalgia that has been used by strongmen throughout the ages to hearken back to some magical time when all was right with the world — before the people in power sold us out and betrayed us.
Again, though, it is interesting how glittering generalities and nationalistic sloganeering can completely replace the need for details or specifics or even coherent policy positions. I’m currently reading the galley copy of historian David Pietrusza’s fascinating forthcoming book, 1932: The Rise of Hitler and FDR–Two Tales of Politics, Betrayal, and Unlikely Destiny. And I couldn’t help but find this excerpt written by American journalist William Chapman White about Hitler in 1932 to be eerily familiar:
His critics charge him with having no concrete programme … That criticism is unimportant. Moses never offered his followers a detailed relief map of the Promised Land. It was enough to assure them that there was such a land. ‘And Hitler has no economic programme,’ the critics say. That, for his followers, also means little. No one who believes in heaven worries whether heaven maintains the gold standard or not.
Once again, to be clear, I am not comparing Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler — who rightfully occupies a unique and ignominious place in our history. But I don’t think suggestions that he has fascist tendencies or that he is espousing a dangerous Nietzschean worldview are absurd. And I am worried about an American public who is not skeptical, but rather, hungry, for this American übermensch. I am worried about what the next Trump who comes along might do. And this might sound paranoid. But nobody said preserving freedom would be easy. No, it requires diligence. It also requires a public that is both knowledgeable and virtuous.

Bobby Jindal: US Should Insist Immigrants 'Adopt Our Values'
http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/bobby-jindal-legal-immigrants-standardsBySARA JERDEPublishedAUGUST 30, 2015, 11:55 AM EDT
Republican presidential candidate and Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal said on ABC's "This Week" Sunday that the United States should "insist" legal immigrants "adopt our values."
ABC host Martha Raddatz asked Jindal if he, born to legal immigrant parents, was troubled by the "derogatory things" other GOP candidates have said.
The term "anchor babies" to refer to children who are automatically granted citizenship despite the citizenship status of their parents has been used by some presidential candidates, including Donald Trump and former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush. Jindal himself said last week that he was also "happy to use" the term.
On Sunday, Jindal told Raddatz that his parents have never taken the United States for granted.
"And I think this election is largely about the idea -- the idea of America is slipping away in front of us. When it comes to immigration policy, what I’ve experienced and seen is that a smart immigration policy makes our country stronger; a dumb one makes us weaker. We’ve got a dumb one today," Jindal said.
"Yes, we need to secure our border. Stop talking about it," he continued. "I think we need to insist that folks who come here come here legally, learn English, adopt our values, roll up our sleeves and get to work."
Raddatz interrupted Jindal and asked him to clarify what the difference was between "American values" and those of immigrants.
"Look, what I worry about is you look to Europe, the contrast is -- you’ve got second, third generation immigrants that don’t consider themselves part of those societies, those cultures," Jindal said. "We in our country shouldn’t be giving freedoms to people who want to undermine the freedom for other people. I think we need to move away from hyphenated Americans. We’re not African-Americans or Asian-Americans, Indian-Americans, rich or poor Americans: we’re all Americans."
* So all groups should just forget their culture? Wow Piyush you're sure kissing alot of ass*
