Gord's Notebook : Glenn Beck Complains Mainstream Media Is Lying About Numbers at 9/12 Project March On Washington & Justiying Insurrection

UPDATE: 3:20 PM & 3:53 PM Sunday Sept. 13, 2009

...The situation has many authorities worried. Militiamen, white supremacists, anti-Semites, nativists, tax protesters and a range of other activists of the radical right are cross-pollinating and may even be coalescing. In the words of a February report from law enforcement officials in Missouri, a variety of factors have combined recently to create "a lush environment for militia activity."

From Southern Poverty Law Center Aug. 12, 2009

Logo for 9/12 Project- the Don't Tread on Me logo is often associated with the more militant Radical Right groups and Patriots, Militias, Posse Commitas etc.

Glenn Beck claims Mass Media reports only tens of thousands showed up in Washington for Sept. 12 demonstration when in fact :

"...Not only were there as many as two million in D.C., but numerous cities in every state also held 9/12 and Tea Party protests.

You know, journalism died a long time ago, so I guess this shouldn’t even surprise anyone that the liberal state controlled media, who are basically stenographers for the Obama administration, would under report this event by oh, almost two million!

What grew out of a simple love for our nation, and inspiration from Fox News’ Glenn Beck, has turned into a serious movement that has been gaining steam since the concept was first announced by Glenn on his Fox News show in March of this year."

Now on the Home Page of Ralph Reeds Faith And Freedom Coalition Joe Wison is celebrated as an American Folk Hero.

>Oath Keepers is considered by the Southern Poverty Law Center as one of the more troubling Radical Right organizations which is cooperating with more mainstream anti-Obama anti-government anti-tax organizations. Is this a call to their supporters to be ready for an Insurrection.

Sean Hannity of Fox News gives his full support to Ralp Reed's Faith and Freedom Coalition.

Notice Grassfire.org begins by claiming that their organization represents "Patriotic Americans" So any American supporting Obama's administration and its policies is Not Patriotic and ipso facto "Traitors".

Ultra or Uber conservative Foster Friess condemns Obama's health reform as unAmerican

The Camp Fema "Conspiracy Theory" hysteria which once belonged to only those on the margins of the far right by such paranoid characters as Alex Jones has now become more mainstream amongst the Radical Right and the Religious Right as it is given credence by media personalities such as Glenn Beck.

Liberty Tour To Spread the word about the evils of Obama's Hidden Agenda

"So let us be blunt about it: we must use the doctrine of religious liberty to gain independence for Christian schools until we train up a generation of people who know that there is no religious neutrality, no neutral law, no neutral education, and no neutral civil government. Then they will get busy in constructing a Bible-based social, political and religious order which finally denies the religious liberty of the enemies of God."

Gary North ( Reconstructionist)

"This is our government. They (the secular humanists) stole it. And we're coming to take it back."

Oliver North ( Iran/Contra scandal-right-wing hero Only Following Orders)

"What Christians have got to do is to take back this country,one precinct at a time, one neighborhood at a time and one state at a time ... I honestly believe that in my lifetime wewill see a country once again governed by Christians ... and Christian values."

(Religious News Service, May 15, 1990)RALPH REED (Executive director of the Christian Coalition)

"In winning a nation to the gospel, the sword as well as the pen must be used."

R.J. Rushdooney

"I want you to just let a wave of intolerance wash over you.I want you to let a wave of hatred wash over you. Yes, hate is good ... Our goal is a Christian nation. We have a biblical duty, we are called by God to conquer this country. We don'twant equal time. We don't want pluralism."

[TheNews-Sentinel (Fort Wayne, Indiana), August 16, 1993]RANDALL TERRY (Founder of Operation Rescue and a close friend of the Catholic Archbishops of New York and Philadelphia)

"We must fight against those radical minorities who are trying to remove God from our textbooks, Christ from our nation. We must take back what is rightfully ours." (Moral Majority Sermon, March 1993) "I hope to see the day when, as in the early days of our country, we won't have any public schools. The churches will have taken them over again and Christians will be running them. What a happy day that will be."

(America Can Be Saved, 1979) JERRY FALWELL (Senior Pastor of Thomas Rhodes Baptist Church)

Time for Sunday's Sermon
First a word from the most influential leader of the Religious Right Francis A. Schaeffer from his book : A Christian Manifesto pub. 1982.The call for massive protests and even civil disobedience by UberConservatives such as Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity, Lou Dobbs ,Michelle Malkin etc. was first laid out as a strategy by Francis A. Schaeffer in 1981. Schaeffer also outlines the conditions under which it becomes a civic and religious duty for the populace to engage in an insurrection against a government which has become a Tryanny.

In "A Christian Manifesto" Francis Schaeffer argues that a government which does not adhere to God's Law and the Bible the government then loses its authority over its citizenry. The citizens have the right to protest to commit to a strategy of civil disobedience and to using the ballot box and the courts to resist such a tyrannical government. But if these non-violent means do not produce results because those in power are determined to force their will on to the people it is then that the people have to consider a peaceful rebellion and if it does not succeed then armed rebellion is justifiable and even necessary and that further it becomes a duty of the True Christians.

"Thus in almost every place where the Reformation flourished there was not only religious noncompliance: there was civil disobedience as well p.99 Manifesto

It was in this setting that Samuel Rutherford (1600-1661) wrote his Lex Rex or The Law and The Prince. What is the concept in Lex rex very simply the law is king; and if the king and the government disobey the law they are to be disobeyed. And the law is founded on the Law of God...that the basic premise of civil government and, therefore, law, must be based on God's Law as given in the Bible...all men even the king are under the law and not above it. pp.99-100

and: Acts of the state which contradicted God's Law were illegitimate and acts of tyranny. Tyranny was defined as ruling without the sanction of God. and "that a tyrannical government is always immoral" as it is (... a licentious deviation of a power; and is no more from God, but from sinful nature and the old serpent, than a license to sin" Rutherford)

First since tyranny is Satanic , not to resist it is to resist God-to resist tyranny is to honor God.

Second , since the ruler is granted power conditionally, it follows that the people have the power to withdraw their sanction if the proper conditions are not fulfilled.

...therefore "citizens have a moral obligation to resist unjust and tyrannical government." p.101

And Francis Schaeffer outlines the conditions under which civil disobedience and insurrection would become justifiable he emphasizes that a ruler or government is not to be disposed of because of a single breach of the law

...Only when the magistrate (government) acts in such a way that the governing structure of the country is being destroyed-that is ,when he is attacking the fundamental structure of society-is he to be relieved of his power and authority..."

For instance according to Glenn Beck & Rush Limbaugh it would seem they believe that the time for civil disobedience and insurrection may have arrived. They describe the present conditions in America under the Obama administration as the most dangerous time in America -Beck argues that Obama is creating an army which will be used to enforce his commands etc. While Beck argues Obama may take complete control of the country overnight if he so decides while Limbaugh here sounding a little more reasonable believes that what he and Glenn Beck and Fox News etc. are doing by shedding light on Obama's hidden agenda may in fact mitigate against Obama taking such action.

Even though on the various websites of groups which support Glenn Beck's 9/12 project insist they claim of a "Zero Tolerance Policy' of engaging in racist slurs or comparing Obama to Hitler , Stalin Mao etc. we find an official 9/12 video which does just that.

Resist, Rebuild, Restore (Strategy Overview) resist.Net & Grassfire.org

Grassfire.org has launched this “Join The Resistance” campaign to give grassroots conservatives a place to join together around the common goal of holding off as much of the Obama agenda as possible. Our goal is to bring together hundreds of thousands of resisters this year. When combined with similar efforts from the tea party movement, Glenn Beck's 9-12 effort and others, together we can mount a successful, patriotic, idea-based resistance.

Web-Based Resistance
The key will be providing web-based structures that truly equip conservatives to Resist. Step #1 is the Join the Resistance Petition. This platform is the foundation for everything else we will do. A million-strong email network provides us with the ability to respond immediately to each and every effort by the Obama administration to undermine our liberties. If you have not yet signed the petition, please do so now.

ResistNet adds to this foundation a platform for social networking that will connect Resisters to others in their communities. Our goal is to give concerned citizens both a forum for ideas and a practical way to get involved. Ideally, anyone who is willing to invest their time in advancing this patriotic, idea-based resistance to this new wave of socialism would be able to contribute through ResistNet in two key areas: providing solid, idea-based content and helping to organize locally through our State Groups.

"SPLC Report: Return of the Militias" August 12, 2009

The 1990s saw the rise and fall of the virulently antigovernment "Patriot" movement, made up of paramilitary militias, tax defiers and so-called "sovereign citizens." Sparked by a combination of anger at the federal government and the deaths of political dissenters at Ruby Ridge, Idaho, and Waco, Texas, the movement took off in the middle of the decade and continued to grow even after 168 people were left dead by the 1995 bombing of Oklahoma City's federal building — an attack, the deadliest ever by domestic U.S. terrorists, carried out by men steeped in the rhetoric and conspiracy theories of the militias. In the years that followed, a truly remarkable number of criminal plots came out of the movement. But by early this century, the Patriots had largely faded, weakened by systematic prosecutions, aversion to growing violence, and a new, highly conservative president.

They're back. Almost a decade after largely disappearing from public view, right-wing militias, ideologically driven tax defiers and sovereign citizens are appearing in large numbers around the country. "Paper terrorism" — the use of property liens and citizens' "courts" to harass enemies — is on the rise. And once-popular militia conspiracy theories are making the rounds again, this time accompanied by nativist theories about secret Mexican plans to "reconquer" the American Southwest. One law enforcement agency has found 50 new militia training groups — one of them made up of present and former police officers and soldiers. Authorities around the country are reporting a worrying uptick in Patriot activities and propaganda. "This is the most significant growth we've seen in 10 to 12 years," says one. "All it's lacking is a spark. I think it's only a matter of time before you see threats and violence."
