I'll be watching Glenn Beck's Show tonight

[Virtus]

Thought it was a very good show. I am sure some people will write it off as "crazy" talk. I believe we are becoming a nation of Bubbas; I know I am, mentally and physically (around the waist line)

 

[RogerB]

I've never wanted an AR more so than right now. I even told the wife that, and its funding starts right now. And no it won't interfere with her gun fund, that was her main concern.

I love my wife

I was a bit surprised the Sgt Major and the Spook both felt the military would side with the Bubbas.

I don't think that it was an endorsement for a 100% Bubba commitment but if enough questioned or hesitated it would make a difference. I'm sure that the Government has figured in military dissent and what actions to take. God Help Us All. Did you catch that the Law was changed and it does Not take the State Governor to Call Up the Guard.

 

[Annie Oakley]

Sarge, that law change made me cringe to the point where I almost disappeared into my chair. Can't be a good thing.

RogerB, thanks for accepting me as a bubbette. I won't let you down.

 

[Walter Zoomie]

Did you catch that the Law was changed and it does Not take the State Governor to Call Up the Guard.

That is not what was said on the program.

What was said was that the new stimulus bill allows state legislatures to go around the governor and take the stimulus money should the governor refuse to take the stimulus money.

Beck surmises that this means that the Federal government can and will have the ability to circumvent states' rights in all other areas as well...such as the calling up and use of the National Guard.

 

[Annie Oakley]

Guess I need to go back and watch it again. I thought sure that was what he said, but then my mind was working on some other things while I watched.

hmmm nice catch Walt, thanks for pointing that out. But I still want an AR

 

[agentl074]

Liberty or Death - Dont Tread On Me!

 

[Walter Zoomie]

It's pure speculation on Beck's part...but not unreasonable to think...that one thing will lead to another.

I like him and I agree with most everything he says, but he gets overly emotional sometimes.

He's correct when he says our Constitution is being pissed on.

 

[Walter Zoomie]

...But I still want an AR...

You and me both, broheem!

I believe that you are absolutely Correct but I gleaned that the interpretation would allow them to bypass the Governor for a call up. It does create an interesting scenario and power struggle with the ever increasing Federal $$'s Strings attached

I wasn't

 

[Turn Key]

Wave that "Bubba Sword" over my

Bald head Bubba!

[9rows]

anyone got a web link to tonight's show?

i missed it.

thanks.

 

[swatdoc]

I thought it was a provocative show for mainstream media. Probably over-hyped a little from what I heard this morning. There was certainly no content on there that I was un-prepared for, or hadn't considered. He did a great job of explaining this is a what-if and maybe, just maybe, some sheeple will pull their heads out and take a moments notice and prepare. Naah, what am I thinkin!

For entertainment, check out the guy Brad Thor. Very good author along the lines of Tom Clancy (his earlier books).

 

[Panama]

Watched it, agreed with Beck, as usual.

My favorite thing he said was, "listen to your gut, if your gut is telling you something is wrong, DON'T ignore it"
Oh how true that is, and so many of us don't listen.

My gut has been talking to me, loud and clear, for the last 5 - 6 months!

Proud BUBBA here!

 

[SilentWarrior1]

I'm not. Not at all.

The majority of soldiers (i.e. Enlisted and NCO's) are the "blue-collar" workers of the Military... the one's with field experience (i.e. Common Sense). When we took our oath of Enlistment, we swore to uphold the Constitution of the United States. Our Allegiance doesn't necessarily lie with the Commander-in-chief, but the Ideas enumerated in the Constitution.

I know a LOT of soldiers who would willingly leave their post if it meant to directly protect their families. Gear and all. Hell, I was one of them.

 

[HICKMAN]

I'm hooking up my TV card back into my computer this weekend, so I can start recording his show, that way those of you who can't watch can see it on youtube or something.

 

[Jay]

I have to think that whether we're discussing Active duty military, or local Nat'l Guard units..... every one of those folks is most likely related to a bubba, somewhere.

I have to believe that blood will be thicker that politics.
