    Todays Glenn Beck

    Todays show covered the SEIU protestors, 14 bussses shipped in, to a lawyer for Bof A's house, where his 14 year old son was alone.

    The boy locked himself in the bathroom...........while the father tried to get him intot eh house to get him out.

    Not once on CBS, or NBC did I see this....he then played a clip of a SEIU official stating we know where people live.

    He further talked about his kids walking 4 blocks to his stuido, and crying by the time they get there because of people making comments.

    Then he discussed that he was at a restaurant, and James Ghandalfini was there, he went and said hi to him, and right in front of Glenns 5 year old son, James asked how they lat Satan in the place.


    Now, I am generally a peaceful guy, but, I can guarantee, you bring a few hundred people to my doorstep, screaming and yelling, I would take this as a terrorist threat to my family, there would be dead bodies on the lawn..............and I am willing to bet, I would not have a problem getting a lawyer to represent me

    I hate to sya it, but, I would not have an issue shooting other Americans as my oath said, all enemies foreign and domestic.........

    someone messes with my kids on the street because of my affiliation with the tea party, you better damn well be ready to have violence brought directly to you............and ghandalfini, would have gotten popped in his fat ass mouth.....

    now, Beck did say that during the intermission, he said James did come up and apoligize and state he hoped Glenns son did not hear it




    so, my point, ALIPAC is trying to do things correctly, non violently, and using the voting booth to fix things, I am questioning whether it will help

    We have not collapsed yet, not even close. I dont think most people are prepared for any level of social collaps, but it may be on the way soon, within a year.

    Vote, Vote, and oh yeah - Vote in November - if they all lose their jobs then at least we have plugged one hole in the dike.

    Just 23 WEEKS - we need to work hard - phone, give $ when we can, yard signs, bumper stickers, phone banks, cut out coffee and give some more $$.

    Whatever it takes across the country - The Progressives in the House and Senate must be voted out at all costs.

    The Progressives in the GOP - must also be voted out at all costs.

    No more RINO's. There is way too much mess to clean up!

    Pray, Pray, Pray, go to church and Pray, Pray, Pray.

    If this country is to be saved it is up to us.

    No one else can do it, so we need to be George Washington, kneel and pray and fight like we have never before.

    Here's the story Beck was talking about:

    What's really behind SEIU's Bank of America protests?
    By Nina Easton
    May 19, 2010: 6:15 AM ET

    (FORTUNE) -- Every journalist loves a peaceful protest-whether it makes news, shakes up a political season, or holds out the possibility of altering history. Then there are the ones that show up on your curb--literally.

    Last Sunday, on a peaceful, sun-crisp afternoon, our toddler finally napping upstairs, my front yard exploded with 500 screaming, placard-waving strangers on a mission to intimidate my neighbor, Greg Baer. Baer is deputy general counsel for corporate law at Bank of America (BAC, Fortune 500), a senior executive based in Washington, D.C. And that -- in the minds of the organizers at the politically influential Service Employees International Union and a Chicago outfit called National Political Action -- makes his family fair game.

    Waving signs denouncing bank "greed," hordes of invaders poured out of 14 school buses, up Baer's steps, and onto his front porch. As bullhorns rattled with stories of debtor calls and foreclosed homes, Baer's teenage son Jack -- alone in the house -- locked himself in the bathroom. "When are they going to leave?" Jack pleaded when I called to check on him.

    Baer, on his way home from a Little League game, parked his car around the corner, called the police, and made a quick calculation to leave his younger son behind while he tried to rescue his increasingly distressed teen. He made his way through a din of barked demands and insults from the activists who proudly "outed" him, and slipped through his front door.

    "Excuse me," Baer told his accusers, "I need to get into the house. I have a child who is alone in there and frightened."

    When is a protest not a protest?

    Now this event would accurately be called a "protest" if it were taking place at, say, a bank or the U.S. Capitol. But when hundreds of loud and angry strangers are descending on your family, your children, and your home, a more apt description of this assemblage would be "mob." Intimidation was the whole point of this exercise, and it worked-even on the police. A trio of officers who belatedly answered our calls confessed a fear that arrests might "incite" these trespassers.

    What's interesting is that SEIU, the nation's second largest union, craves respectability. Just-retired president Andy Stern is an Obama friend and regular White House visitor. He sits on the President's Fiscal Responsibility Commission. He hobnobs with those greedy Wall Street CEOs -- executives much higher-ranking than my neighbor Baer -- at Davos. His union spent $70 million getting Democrats elected in 2008.

    In the business community, though, SEIU has a reputation for strong-arm tactics against management, prompting some companies to file suit.

    Now those strong-arm tactics, stirred by supposedly free-floating (as opposed to organized) populist rage, have come to the neighborhood curb. Last year it was AIG executives -- with protestors met by security guard outside. Now it's any executive -- and they're on the front stoop. After Baer's house, the 14 buses left to descend on the nearby residence of Peter Scher, a government relations executive at JPMorgan Chase (JPM, Fortune 500).

    Targeting homes and families seems to put SEIU in the ranks of (now jailed) radical animal-rights activists and the Kansas anti-gay fundamentalists harassing the grieving parents of a dead 20-year-old soldier at his funeral (the Supreme Court has agreed to weigh in on the latter). But that's not a conversation that SEIU officials want to have.

    When I asked Stephen Lerner, SEIU's point-person on Wall Street reform, about these tactics, he accused me of getting "emotional." Lerner was more comfortable sticking to his talking points: "Millions of people are losing their homes, and they have gone to the banks, which are turning a deaf ear."

    Okay, fine, then why not continue SEIU protests at bank offices and shareholder meetings-as the union has been doing for more than a year? Lerner insists, "People in powerful corporations seem to think they can insulate themselves from the damage they are doing."

    Other reasons why SEIU might protest

    Bank of America officials dispute Lerner's assertion about the "damage they are doing," citing the success of workout programs to help distressed homeowners, praise received from community groups, the bank's support of financial reform legislation, and the little-noticed fact that Bank of America exited the subprime lending business in 2001.

    SEIU has said it wants to organize bank tellers and call centers -- and its critics point out that a great way to worsen employee morale, thereby making workers more susceptible to union calls, is to batter a bank's image through protest. (SEIU officials say their anti-Wall Street campaign has nothing to do with their organizing efforts.) Complicating this picture is the fact that BofA is the union's lender of choice -- and SEIU, suffering financially, owes the bank nearly $4 million in interest and fees. Bank of America declined comment on the loans.

    Banks: The new punching bag

    But SEIU's intentions, and BofA's lender record, are ripe subjects to debate in Congress, on air, at shareholder hearings. Not in Greg Baer's front yard.

    Why the media wasn't invited

    Sunday's onslaught wasn't designed for mainstream media consumption. There were no reporters from organizations like the Washington Post, no local camera crews who might have aired criticism of this private-home invasion. With the media covering the conservative Tea Party protesters, the behavior of individual activists has drawn withering scrutiny.

    Instead, a friendly Huffington Post blogger showed up, narrowcasting coverage to the union's leftist base. The rest of the message these protesters brought was personal-aimed at frightening Baer and his family, not influencing a broader public.

    Of course, HuffPost readers responding to the coverage assumed that Baer was an evil former Bush official. He's not. A lifelong Democrat, Baer worked for the Clinton Treasury Department, and his wife, Shirley Sagawa, author of the book The American Way to Change and a former adviser to Hillary Clinton, is a prominent national service advocate.

    In the 1990s, the Baers' former bosses, Bill and Hillary Clinton, denounced the "politics of personal destruction." Today politicians and their voters of all stripes grieve the ugly bitterness that permeates our policy debates. Now, with populist rage providing a useful cover, it appears we've crossed into a new era: The politics of personal intimidation.

    Adopted by General Assembly resolution 40/144 of 13 December 1985

    The General Assembly ,

    Considering that the Charter of the United Nations encourages universal respect for and observance of the human rights and fundamental freedoms of all human beings, without distinction as to race, sex, language or religion,

    Considering that the Universal Declaration of Human Rights proclaims that all human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights and that everyone is entitled to all the rights and freedoms set forth in that Declaration, without distinction of any kind, such as race, colour, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status,

    Being aware that the States Parties to the International Covenants on Human Rights undertake to guarantee that the rights enunciated in these Covenants will be exercised without discrimination of any kind as to race, colour, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status,

    Conscious that, with improving communications and the development of peaceful and friendly relations among countries, individuals increasingly live in countries of which they are not nationals,

    Reaffirming the purposes and principles of the Charter of the United Nations,

However, such laws and regulations shall not be incompatible with the international legal obligations of that State, including those in the field of human rights.
