A packed Cowboy Stadium is hearing inspirational messages about
Restoring Love and service to our fellow man from Glenn Beck, who is
drawing on our nation’s early heritage to remind the crowd about the
foundations on which out nation has been built.
After ringing an authentic copy of the Liberty Bell flown from
Philadelphia to Arlington, Texas for the event, Beck passionately spoke
of how George Washington prayed at Valley Forge. Beck also brought out
one of eight remaining bibles printed by the United States Congress.
Later Beck sat at a carved wooden chair and desk that he revealed to
be Abraham Lincoln’s. Using those artifacts and others to establish a
clear connection to our nation’s history, Beck told the crowd that “It’s
time for us to start to stand for what we believe in. It’s time of us
to square our shoulders and take action.”

See ya Obama you punk Chicago Mafia Thug!
i watched these events as they unfolded this past week with the culmination of the final event last night. alot of unrevised history was quoted and actual documents shown during this time. for those (many on this blog) who say our founding fathers were not christian or at least godly men (and women) you are proven wrong over and over again.
a great site to prove my point is WallBuilders.com (david barton) who has the largest collection of the original docs and artifacts in the world. there is NO question we were founded on these principles and our heritage is clearly Judeo-Christian.
david barton was featured at the events and those that participated and observed certainly got an education and i'm sure many eyes were opened for the first time in their lives...
Barton holds no formal credentials in history or law, and scholars dispute the accuracy and integrity of his assertions about history, accusing him of practicing misleading historical revisionism, "pseudoscholarship" and "outright falsehoods".
Doesn't dispute the facts of Barton's collection and research. The vague and often anonymous accusations against him are from such luminous sources as the NY Times which, frequently, practices "pseudojournalism".
2:55 - Your being wrong is only one reason why this country is in peril. Trying to discredit the presenter of the original documents is dangerous and false.
@2:55. Are talking about Barton or Obama?
@8:12-Did you seriously compare the NY Times to a discredited historian? Also, if any of you read any of the personal papers or effects of the founding fathers, you'd know they were more deists than Protestant Christians. Much different view of god and any role a god might play in the universe than you have. Do your own research and reading; take a university's American History class or something. But please don't just believe what you're told by an event that features Glenn Beck of all people. His historical inaccuracies are regularly stupefying.
10:44, your ignorance amazes me at best. try very hard to educate yourself regarding the "original" founding fathers documents and writings. you may actually be very surprised at what you DON'T know.
i've read the info on the "revisionist" side and nothing seems to add up when you hold it up to the "original". just can't seem to get past the word "original".
by the way; barton doesn't hold himself up to be in the "educated elitists" camp. in fact, i'm sure he wouldn't want to be in that camp, but you or anyone else can't dispute his collection. something the revisionists (your camp) don't have.
