He also plans to announce his 100 year plan for America.\u00a0Beck will be joined onstage as a featured speaker by fellow loon Sarah Palin. It&#8217;s expected that over 300,000 fellow Tea Party, Obama-hating people will attend Beck&#8217;s KookStock. I&#8217;m a strong advocate of the First Amendment, so I think it&#8217;s totally appropriate that Beck hold his rally on the anniversary of Dr. King&#8217;s speech, even though I think he&#8217;s a hate-mongering nut and many civil rights advocates are objecting to it. So bring your pitchforks, Federalist Papers, gold coins and survival meals that you bought from Beck&#8217;s sponsors, Confederate Flags, and kleenex (to cry along with Beck during his speech). And just remember that we&#8217;ve got to get ourselves back to the gun shop, as Joni Mitchell and Crosby, Stills, and Nash wouldn&#8217;t say.\u00a0Is Beck a visionary or a moron? What do you think about the event?<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/outofbounds.nbcsports.com\/Glenn%20Beck.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On August 28th, radio talk show host Glenn Beck will hold his &#8220;Restoring Honor&#8221; rally\u00a0at the Lincoln Memorial, exactly 47 years after Dr. Martin Luther King delivered his iconic &#8220;I Have A Dream Speech.&#8221; Beck claims that the goal of &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/professorlarry.com\/?p=294\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-294","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/professorlarry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/294","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/professorlarry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/professorlarry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/professorlarry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/professorlarry.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=294"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/professorlarry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/294\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":297,"href":"https:\/\/professorlarry.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/294\/revisions\/297"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/professorlarry.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=294"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/professorlarry.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=294"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/professorlarry.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=294"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
