Thanks Glenn Beck.
Glenn Beck is neck-and-neck with Lou Dobbs as my favorite television news broadcaster right now. One reason is for his global warming program not to long ago, presenting "the other side". I Applaud that mainly because in my 7th grade science class I am shown "An Inconvenient Truth" by Al Gore. I watched it open-mindedly, and it was what I expected. If you take lesbian playing soulful songs on an acoustic guitar and add a morbid peacenik movie, you get an inconvenient truth. Unfortunately, the kids in my class (or at least the ones that are awake) are absorbing this like sponges because they don't know better. I'm not in any way trying to be demeaning towards them, it's just that I have different interests and am more aware of the other side of the story, which my science teacher barely acknowledged.
The other reason is because of this essay from Glennbeck.com:
May 11th, 2007
I define “integrity” as doing the right thing even when you know that doing so is going to hurt you. When it comes to the Reverend Al Sharpton, I have been trying to be a man of integrity. But on last night’s TV show, I was really put to the test.
Over the last few days, Mr. Sharpton has made some outrageous statements regarding presidential candidate Mitt Romney and Mormons in general (a faith I share). He said that as a Mormon, Romney didn’t really “believe in God.” I know as well as anyone how the media can take one word or thought…twist it or take it out of context…and obscure the original intent. As a result, I am more than willing to take a step back and listen to the other side. I did that with Al…and that is why today I’m more sad than angry. I’m sad because I believe Sharpton’s comments weren’t made out of bigotry, but from a seed of ignorance. His ignorance is an effect of being bullet-proof to any kind of real push back when he says something incorrect or just plain stupid. Al’s been on the permanent defensive for so long that I actually believe he’s incapable of seeing beyond the scope of his own rhetoric. One of the few things that Al and I have always agreed on is that, while we may not believe in what the other says, we believe that the other genuinely believes in what they’re saying. So after speaking with Reverend Sharpton on and off the air, I was left with the real sense that he believes what he said was right, and while he’s willing to apologize to “all Mormons” for offending them, he seemed devoid of any real empathy for those who were hurt. It’s like our parents used to tell us—saying you’re sorry is one thing, but actually being sorry is quite another.I had a very personal conversation with Al in the green room before we went on air, something that I don’t normally do. I told him how his statements personally affected and offended me, and how even though I wanted to lay into him on air…I wouldn’t. I wasn’t going to lash out at Al both because of my faith and that whenever possible I try to avoid the politics of destruction. However, I told him I would ask him very direct questions. Al told me at that time that he had spoken with two of the leaders of my faith…that he had reached out to them and how kind and welcoming they were. He planned to meet with them within the next 30 days. It was all very nice and cordial, yet Al never reached out to personally apologize to me for his comments about Mormons and their belief in God. But in all fairness, I never asked him to. While we were in the hallway walking toward the studio, I asked him if it had been a “tough day.” His response what immediate–”No, actually it has been a very good day.” Again, to me that showed his complete lack of empathy. While some might read this as, “Yeah, Beck’s finally on to him and throwing him under the bus,” nothing could be further from the truth. I am “on to him,” but not in the way you might think. What I am “on to” is the fact that I really don’t think Al understands just how hurtful his statements were. I believe that’s because he’s immune to any significant repercussions to his ignorant, bigoted or hurtful statements. He’s become too much Al Sharpton the activist and too little Al Sharpton the man. He can make speeches, demand firings and rally for terminations, but somehow he’s become untouchable…even as he stands guilty of the same acts that those he targets have committed. But I guess if you live without ever feeling the heat when you touch the stove, you never learn to not touch it.
Again, I’m not angry at Al Sharpton or even disappointed. Instead, I feel genuine sadness for him. Please don’t confuse that with pity, because that’s not what it is. Maybe I feel the way I do because I’m a Mormon and I do believe in God…deeply. Perhaps some might call what I’m feeling compassion…but to me, I can really only describe it as a sadness. It comes from knowing how I used to be when I was drinking, how I had become disconnected from so many of my own feelings that I found myself missing out on so much -by checking out from the bad, I was preventing myself from feeling good as well. Without the brutality of winter, I couldn’t recognize the comfort of spring.
I am sad because Al Sharpton is missing out on so much of the sweetness in life because he won’t allow himself to feel the bitterness of adversity. Let your guard down Al…take your lumps, be humbled by your mistakes and move on. It’s worth it–I promise. -Glenn Beck -Devin

Flourescent Bulbs = Bane of Existence.
In April the supreme court voted greenhouse gases (global warming) a significant enough problem to be regulated by the EPA. Now it is May, and President Bush has already given in. Global warming has turned into a mere trend. Nearly every corporate agency says they are going to, "go green". Great marketing strategy! Let's draw in the 90% of the population that considers themselves environmentally aware. Oh, they must mean that they are aware that there is in fact an environment. Impressive.
Anyway, he's now mandating that government agencies start researching ways for machines (mainly vehicles) to be more fuel efficient. He also noted he wants them to be through by the end of his term. Through? With what? And what if they're not? Are you going to give them a spanking? The whole way of going about this is absurd, not to mention unnecessary. Why unnecessary, you ask!? Because humans aren't causing global warming! The globe is causing global warming. I admire the fact that President Bush puts the "due date" at the end of his term. Because everyone including him knows it will take longer for them to find whatever the heck it is they're looking for...so by the time they're done, it'll be the next president's problem! And if it's Fred Thompson (and it will be), then that bill is going to hell! Hurrah for President Bush! Him and Thompson have been stalling this bill in secrecy until the last possible moment, so that Thompson can veto it and Bush can say, "At least I tried!". -Devin

Wow, this makes you look good...
This doesn't exactly add credibility to "Husseins" campain, and I personally don't think it should take away, either (there are much more prominent issues). However, it's still shockingly ammusing to see big-shots in Washington stumble over their usually "flawless" words. (Or, in this case, fall into a vat of lava over words would be more appropriate, 9, 988 gallons of it too, if you can decipher that.) What I'm speaking of if you haven't already guessed, or just dont know (because the media w/ it's communist agenda hasn't publicized it even as much as getting freaking PARIS HILTON out of her long-due jail-time, I'm sure it's a martha stuart-style jail anyways, she'll probably make a sex tape while serving time if she even does serve her full sentence or any sentence at all), is in the form of a clip from YouTube that you can search for, you'll find it. Watch as the liberal scum behind him nod there heads in aggreement with whatever magic negro says. But before you watch it, you should know that only 12 were killed in the kansas tornado recently. By the way, putting this political humor aside, God bless those people that died, and be w/ their families. Sincerely. I've experienced a fairly serious tornado, and it's scary. -Devin
SILLY AL!
A few days ago "Rev." Al Sharpton had some unkind, hypocritical words to say about republican 08' presidential candidate Mitt Romney during a debate with an athiest. He basically degraded Mitt Romney's mormon religion saying that whatever running-mate of Romney truly believes in God will automatically deafeat him. This is the same civil-rights activist who succesfully got Don Imus fired (instead of forgiving in a Christian manner!) for reffering to black (and white, actually) women as "nappy headed hos". Keep in mind "Imus in the Morning" is a comedy show, and makes crude jokes all the time about other races and religions. Of course, Sharpton didn't get involved until he had the dreaded "black race card" to play. He diverted the subject by saying the Romney campaign commitee was over publicizing the comments to gain sympathy-votes. And made excuses by saying that he was reffering to Romney's Republican party, not his Mormon faith. Diverting the subject and making excuses are 2 things Sharpton has perfected over the years. He is also an expert at not answering direct questions. He wants to talk about "over publicizing"? Did he not just get a notoriously edgy-humor man fired for making a "racially insensitive" comment about african-americans and women (ultimate minorities)? Hm, the way the media plays it, I must've imagined that whole controversy. Of course, I'm automatically condemned a racist by questioning this high-profile BLACK man's actions. Along with Lou Dobbs, (thanks LOU! and for the illegal immigration program too!). But I especially want to thank Mitt Romney for handling this so professionally, and Christian (or Mormon) and not making a mountain out of....a mountain, I guess. You did the right thing. Here was Romney's initial response; "Perhaps he didn't mean it that way, but the way it came out was inappropriate and wrong.". -Devin
What I represent....
I am 13. I am from Indianapolis, Indiana. What I represent are christian and american political ideas with links to no particular parties. Some people see this as a lack of party research, and/or an inability to make a decision, and to please all people by not taking political sides. It is none of those. I know what I stand for, and no party fully represents it. I have done my research on all parties, and none fully agree with my individual ideas. Thus, I am an independent. Not part the "independent party", which is contradictory, seeing as the reason for being an independent should be because you don't agree with any of the available parties. I am my own party. My political (or some non-political you could say, but just involved in political situatuions, *cough *cough, Imus.) idols are Lou Dobbs, Chuck Hagel, Alberto Gonzales, Don Imus, President Bush, Glenn Beck, Steven Colbert, Keith Olbermann, John McCain, all U.S. troops and vets., and the man I pray gets the republican nomination and wins the 08' election, Fred Thompson, (however as long as Hillary Clinton doesn't win, I think I shall refrain from moving to the UK!). And as for the people I dislike, well, you'll hear about them soon enough. -Devin
