CPAC: Glenn Beck

Posted on | February 21, 2010 | 13 Comments

Last night I went down to the floor to take in Glenn Beck’s closing remarks. What a great speech. It was a fine bookend to George Will’s previous priestly posturings. Rather than look back and be self-congratulatory in his wisdom, Beck looked forward, rather graphically at times, towards the hangover helper the country requires.

Uncoverage.net owes me $1 for betting that Governor Palin would not introduce Beck. Still too soon.

I’ll be back later today with the usual Rule 5 goodness.

    ‘Twas vintage Beck…
    …and he didn’t waste a minute. It was glorious. His re-reading of the inscription upon Lady Liberty was, perhaps, one of the finest moments in years of CPAC.

    Looking good CPAC

    between Highly Educated Ivy-League White George Will, recovering Howard Beale alcoholic Glenn Beck and Grover Norquist Gang of RONPAUL thuggish youths all the Republican Party needs now are couple of pro-abortion Catholics to round out the Big Diversity Tent.

    Then the GOP will be in great shape to take on the Progressive Left.

    Predictable… Far-left, sniveling-quisling, & libel-blogger, “Charles Johnson at LGF compares Glenn Beck giving the CPAC speech to Hitler”.
