Special "Restoring Honor" Edition.
Don Surber at the Charleston Daily Mail:
"Glenn Beck has a dream. Sarah Palin, too. And Alveda King... And all the American people as well. We all have a dream. No one owns it. Just like no one owns the National Mall."Borepatch:
"Remember the original definition of Bolshevik was 'majority', and the term was adopted when they were in the minority. The Media says 'thousands' turned out, rather than the 'hundreds of thousands' who were there. They want you to think that you're Mensheviks. This is why they hate Sarah Palin, who speaks - simply and plainly - the Truths That Must Not Be Spoken. They nitpick, because they won't address the important stuff."Paul Mirengoff at Power Line:
"Sarah Palin spoke early in the event. She drew the most enthusiastic applause I heard all day, including Beck's."Noel Sheppard at Newsbusters:
"The hatred for Glenn Beck, Sarah Palin, and Americans that don't agree with the current direction of this nation was dripping from Chris Matthews' lips Friday evening. In a show filled with falsehoods and anti-Conservative rants that should even embarrass folks at MSNBC, the 'Hardball' host concluded... 'I have a nightmare that one day... Little right-wing boys and little right-wing girls joining hands and singing their praise for Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin. I have a nightmare.' Offering opinions about political figures and competitors on rival networks is one thing, but this constant invective aimed at Republicans and Fox News personalities coming from Matthews and virtually all the on air talent at MSNBC is getting totally out of control... Journalism be damned, I guess."Randy-g at Randy's Roundtable:
"Looks like Glen Beck and Sarah Palin had a few patriots show up... I can hardly wait for the media spin of this 'small' crowd."Erick Erickson at RedState.com:
"The same people who have been saying for weeks it is a sign of tolerance to build a mosque at Ground Zero are screaming how intolerant it is for Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin to go to the Lincoln Memorial and give a speech... The convenient constitutionalists who laud the first amendment out of one side of their mouth want nothing to do with the first amendment out of the other side of their mouth."Michael Zak at Publius' Forum:
"{The] Restoring Honor rally at the Lincoln Memorial has the Democrats in a panic. They’re afraid of Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin speaking Truth to Power."Sue Cirba at Pro-Life PA:
"Sarah Palin told the stories of and introduced several Medal of Honor winners including Colonel Thomas Kirk, a Vietnam Veteran who endured years of imprisonment at the Hanoi Hilton along with John McCain and many others. One critic posted on Facebook, that she had said nothing. It just shows you what we are up against on the left, people who have no appreciation for the sacrifices of those who have defended this country."Van Helsing at Moonbattery:
"Good thing Saracuda wasn't relying on Google to find her way to Glenn Beck's massively attended rally at the Lincoln Memorial..."Sissy Willis at Liberty Pundits:
"Meanwhile, in the wake of two years — and counting! — of unrelenting persecution by [the] commentariat, Mama Grizzly Sarah... Palin has emerged stronger than ever, the President’s most persistent and effectual gadfly, first among equals of our Tea Party rabble in arms disintermediating the powers that be and their allies in the legacy media via the internet, Fox News and on-the-ground appearances. Everything she says or does goes viral online and in the gateway media, who can’t resist documenting her every move, if only to snark... Palin celebrated with Glenn Beck and a multitude of 'God’s almost chosen people' — as Lincoln called this nation of believers in America’s exceptionalism — for Beck’s 'Restoring Honor' rally at the Lincoln Memorial [Saturday] morning in a salute to 'the good things in America...' 'We must not fundamentally transform America as some would want. We must fundamentally restore her honor,' a luminous Sarah Palin told the... hundreds of thousands of devotees at [the] gathering."Doug Powers at MichelleMalkin.com:
"Albert Pujols and Tony La Russa are there, but it was Palin who just hit it out of the park."J.E. Dyer at Hot Air's Green Room:
"Even many on the right are at pains to repudiate him, as they do other popular conservative mega-figures like Sarah Palin and Rush Limbaugh. But as I have written about Sarah Palin before, I see in Beck a quality that conservatives despise at their peril. That quality is the willingness to stand up and answer the call, no matter what: to say what he knows he has been appointed to say, and not tack or trim to catch the winds of MSM approval... The point is this: people like Beck, Palin, and Limbaugh are as much a test of our character as anything else. Are we so dedicated to a set idea of decorum and credentials that we will close our ears to people who are telling us the truth, because of their social attributes, communication style, and demeanor?"Stacy McCain at The Other McCain:
"Read the [full text of Sarah Palin's speech] — a welcome antidote to that SEIU thug who said the thousands of peaceful citizens who turned out for Beck’s rally 'represent hate-mongering and angry white people.'"Craig Howie at Top of the Ticket:
"Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin lit up the newly launched Google Realtime instant search engine before, during and after their joint rally on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial... 'Glenn Beck rally' and 'Sarah Palin' also were top or near the top of Google's 'hot searches' category throughout the day. Beck is a conservative radio and TV show host while Palin is the former governor of Alaska and one-time Republican VP candidate widely believed to be exploring a run for president in 2012."Richard at Hyscience.com:
"Love her or hate her, you have to admit that this lady gives one hell of a good speech..."- JP
