An Excerpt From Glenn Becks "Common Sense"

("Common Sense", by Glenn Beck.  Chapter 1, page 15,16)

Incendiary class warfare is not a solution, it's a diversion.  But nothing can divert us from the reality that our government has proven to be an unreliable and untrustworthy partner in safeguarding the promise of "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."

If you understand the threat to the Republic, it is your duty to wake up your neighbors by asking them to consider some simple questions:

• Do you trust those in power to always tell you the hard truth - especially if it would hurt them at election time?
• How is it possible that every president since Jimmy Carter has promised to lower our dependence on foreign oil, but now we import more oil than ever from countries that do us harm?
• Are we to honestly believe that the country that took the idea of a man walking on the the moon and turned it into a reality within eighth years, or the country that built a transcontinental railroad in seven years (without power tools or machines) doesn't have the ability to completely build the 670-mile fence along our southern border that was promised to us in 2005?
• Why are the same politicians who insist America is a "melting pot" the first ones to insist that different races, nationalities, and ethnicities retain their distinct languages, identities, and practices?
• Why are those who respectfully question the science behind global warming mocked and condemned?
• Do you believe that your elected representatives view themselves as truly being "public servants" who place your well-being above their own?
• Do you believe that those in Washington see your face when they make decisions or, instead, the faces of those who richly contribute to their campaigns?
• Do you believe that our "public servants" have your best interests at heart and will defend your life, liberty, and property?

You know where you stand on these issues.  You believe in the promise and future of America.  You must heed the call of generations past and commit yourself to becoming part of America's solution.  This will not be an easy or popular journey, but by now we've seen that the allure of the "easy" journey is wrong since it often means having to take an even more treacherous road home.
