Glenn Beck: Restoring Honor Rally at the Footsteps of Lincoln Memorial in Washington, DC (8.28.10)

Estimates of up to 500,000 or more attended the “Restoring Honor” rally, which is hardly the 87,000 some news outlets like CBS reported or even the tens of thousands like that from CNN. The pictures of the event speak for themselves and we are talking hundreds of thousands — clearly the crowd is obviously large. (estimates of 200,000 can fill around the reflective pool area and clearly the crowd stretches well beyond that, as well as extending most of the way to the Washington Monument, however, not as packed.)

The liberal media will try to spin it any which way they can. They will fail to recognize the importance, diminish the message, and scale down the size. It was not a political event and no matter what the papers tell you, 8.28 was about God and prayer. It was about connecting one another with common values to restore honor and character that has long been missing from an ailing nation. To honor those who have sacrificed their lives, to seek and do better in “goodness,” standing alongside with our fellow brothers and sisters, and to reclaim the American Dream.

Sure there were many patriots who attended, many from the Tea Party, but also there were thousands of others who do not look at what is happening in our country through a political lens but that of through a loving and healing hand of God. It’s a time to move forward, to restore our Judeo-Christian principles and values which has made this country exceptional. We are called upon in this life to do something meaningful; take action and move forward with a purposeful and gentler spirit.

Glenn Beck was contacted late Saturday night by the Smithsonian. They called asking for items from the event to be preserved. America’s museum of history calling Glenn Beck? Gee, I wonder why that would be. It wouldn’t have anything to do with such a small number like that of 87,000 that attended or that he was using race to further a political agenda? Nope. Simple. The media doesn’t get it. They do not understand the importance of it and clearly there are those who do not get what our nation is about.

Inspiration and historic from Saturday’s rally comes to mind. Now it’s up to each and every one of us to continue the message of Hope, Faith, & Charity. God Bless and God Bless America!
