Glenn Beck’s Brillant CPAC Keynote Speech — Watch . . . Learn . . . Repent . . . Act!

Yesterday I was totally blown away while watching Glenn Beck’s CPAC keynote speech. Intending to have Fox News on the tube for background noise as I cleaned the fridge and put away the marketing purchases, I simply had to stop, sit and watch this nearly 1 hour tour de force. Leaving very few, if any, stones unturned while castigating both Democrats and Republicans alike for their profligate-spending and ignorance, or pure indifference to our Constitution, Beck delivered the goods.

I like Beck, am thoroughly entertained by his antics on his show and am loving his book. However, I had no idea that he could deliver such a powerful alter-call for coming back to true Conservatism. Anthony Del Pellegrino over at the Politics section of Gather.com puts it this way:

Beck’s almost hour long keynote address was both eloquent and hard-hitting. It was packed with intelligent humor, powerful prose as well as inspirational poetry. From beginning to end, the speech was brutally honest and profoundly accurate.
{…}
Beck touched just about every fundamental aspect of life in America that we have twisted and turned into a politically correct, dysfunctional society that attempts to put a cap on success and deem competition a sin. He drew a clear picture of a nation that is being steered by a government of nearsighted drivers who are more concerned with the sights and sounds along the side of the road than they are with what is right in front of them.

Spend an hour with Glenn Beck — it just might be the most important hour you experience this year.

    Predatory Lending is a major contributor to the economic turmoil we are currently experiencing.

    Here is an example of what I am talking about:
    Scott Veerkamp / Predatory Lending (Franklin Township School Board Member.)

    Please review this information from U.S. Senator Jeff Merkley regarding deceptive lending practices:
    “Steering payments were made to brokers who enticed unsuspecting homeowners into deceptive and expensive mortgages. These secret bonus payments, often called Yield Spread Premiums, turned home mortgages into a SCAM.”

    The Center for Responsible Lending says YSP “steals equity from struggling families.”
    1. Scott collected nearly $10,000 on two separate mortgages using YSP and junk fees. 2. This is an average of $5,000 per loan. 3. The median value of the properties was $135,000. 4. Clearly, this type of lending represents a major ripoff for consumers.
