bit. we're following your money, your hard-earned money, and how they want to spend it. it's a cookbook. good night. [captioning made possible by fox news channel] captioned by the national captioning institute ---www.ncicap.org--- >> three, two, one, beck! glenn: hello. welcome to the glenn beck program. it's friday. i just had a tip from one of our listeners an viewers about an hour and a half ago, and it has come true, and tonight you're going to see something you're not going to see anyplace else. you tell me what it means. it all revolves around cash for clunkers, the program that's running out of money, you know, that was supposed to have money for three months. yeah, yeah, we had it for four days. only the government could spin this as a good thing. then, have you heard the news, the recession is over! uh-huh. get ready to fight back. tonight, i'm going to start to show you a plan in how to make you into a constitutional watchdog. if you believe this country is great but the government is

turning us into one giant clunker, stand up! come on, follow me. by the way, hello, america. it's friday. i want to show you here. this is at houdini water torture cell. our miracle worker, barack obama, is upside-down now, blindfolded and chained in. houdini could escapes. we'll monitor his progress to see how the magician of magicians gets out of this trouble. cash for clunkers program is what he's being suspended in right now, but he will get out of it. it's proving that all the big government haters are wrong, because it's so popular in just a few days, nearly all of the money for the program has already been used up. here is the one thing -- congratulations, washington. you figured out that people

like free stuff! but that doesn't mean cash for clunkers is a success. sure, all the politicians are giddy. representative ed markey, the author of cash for clunkers, says it has become one of the most success successful stimulus programs of 2009. whoa. that's saying an awful lot of press secretary robert gibbs said "you keep on buying cars all weekend long!" but what really has happened with the cash for clunkers? well, they had budgeted what was supposed to last about four months, and it lasted four days. friendly reminder, the same numb nuts that you know, penciled in the numbers over the last four months that it would last, they are the same people that figured out $1.5 trillion is enough for healthcare. this shows the utter incompetence of our government. they are cheering this plan because they gave away free money faster than anticipated. good job, guys!

well done, bravo. now, of course, they're expanding this successful program. let me tell you something. they are not printing more money for this because it worked. they're printing more money, because this is a complete and total failure. look at what they have done now. they have put everybody into a jam. local car dealerships suffer because their short-ferm business plan is in shambles. how many have you read the ads on turn in your clunker? they have done ads on magazines, newspapers, radio ads, what happens now,er it's open in four days? they're screwed and now they're backlogged because, what a shocker, the government already has a backlog of paperwork on the transactions they can't keep up with it. also, on this list of people who are going, oh, geez, there's more of this? auto part recyclers, they're hit because they're not allowed to take the engines or drivetrains, prime revenue source from the cars before they were crushed. also, if they do take any

parts, they can try to sell the parts for six months and then they're no good anymore. what about people who want auto parts? what about people who want clunkers? what about people who need cheaper cars? they have a fewer option. a quarter million working cheaper clunkers are destroyed. nothing good happens when government tries to fix markets. the actual history if it were ever to be taught in school, we might have learned this lesson and not continually repeat it over and over. in 1933, f.d.r., oh, the savior of the world, tried to fix the nation's agricultural industry. similar to what obama is now doing with the auto industry. well, i don't want to have to take up and do it all, but i -- well, i'm forced to help the farmers. that's what f.d.r. said. the farming business was struggling, so f.d.r. decided, you know, the best thing to do is we are going to lower the

prices of ule the beans and stuff. he went in to destroy food an crops. he decideed that the cotton prices were just too darn low. to increase the value of cotton, ten million acres of cotton, gone. hey, it's a rare commodity. we can raise the price. didn't people during the depression need clothes and stuff? same thing with pork prices, too. too darn low. solution? f.d.r. slaughtered 6 million baby pigs. obviously people were a little upset. i mean, probably a little hungry. excuse me, sir. i'd like more, i'm a little rumbly in my tumbley. it is the great depression, you know, imbecile. guess what? they needed food. he just killed all the growing food. oh, what a bunch of whiners! f.d.r. relented but his solution was that he decided to fix the problems he created with a federal surplus

corporation, yet another government program. when government tries to fix things, history shows us all that happens is they create more problems. history also shows us that they solve the new problems by creating more proms, which creates more -- they create more programs which creates more problems. hey, here's the great news. they're going to try that with healthcare next. we are having a problem and one of the reasons the costs are going so high is because of all the senior citizens. how about we combine these two, and we do the auto program and the healthcare, and we do cash for cripples! that way, we can turn grandma in and get $4,500! this is genius! of course, we have to crush grandma and send her parts to china. oh, well. here's jonah goldberg. he is a syndicated columnist and author of "liberal fascism." joan na, i want to start with you first. does it sound eerily similar

at all, you know, to what we did in world war ii? >> i think you have it basically right. the issue here is the same one as we had back then. it's the arrogance of economic planners. they think if they just get enough data and turn all the diodes the right way and get all the right memos an forms, they will be smarter than markets and know how to allocate resources better than markets do. the problem is what is that fairy tale, the little old lady who swallowed a fly? every time, it just creates another problem and you get the snowball effect. with the cash for clunkers thing, we are now telling people that, first of all, maybe some of these people don't need is a new car. they really need a new refrigerator but they got such a good deal, that the government knows better, that they need a new karaer this than an refrigerator, so we're incentivizing people to do this. at the same time, all we're doing is robbing demand from a couple of years down the road when people, almost by

definition, would buy cars anyway, because they had clunkers. glenn: and we're creating a place if you want to have a used car, there aren't going to be used cars. they will be over in china, making something, i don't know, that people can use, that they will send back here and we will buy it from them. >> another similarity with the new deal era is remember all of those mans for agriculture and rent control and a bunch of other things, and healthcare, they were all supposed to be temporary, but we have seen in germany that their cash for clunkers program is now essentially permanent. now we have discovered this one worked so well that it is ostensibly permanent, too, because we're redefining it already. glenn: did americans hear what i heard. jonah goldberg talking about this government and for no reason brings germany into it. let's bring in kimberly guilfoyle, a fox news anchor. she's here. kim, i wanted to bring you in because the cars.gov, and i

recommend, america, do not try this at home. i'm going to show it to you. this is somebody else's computer. i took it from their office, because i wouldn't do it on my. cars.gov. this came in a tip from what i call a constitutional watchdog. i'm asking my radio listeners all this week to watch these things, because ten million eyes on radio, and how many eyes here on television watching things that we can't watch. this is a frightening thing. >> it really s people shouldn't go on it right now. glenn: do not do this at home. you will understand why. take a shot at this. here is cars.gov. i go in and say, i want to turn in my chunker. the dealer goes to cars.gov, and then they hit submit transaction. here it says privacy act and security statement, and it's like, oh, it's the privacy act of 1974. whatever. i agree. this is how bad this system s it probably won't pull up, because the system is so

overwhelmed. you know, it was a $19 million website. it's not going to pull up now. watch. it's thinking. it's trying really hard. let me show you what it does say when you try really hard. can you pull up the full screen? a warning box comes up, and it says this application poafdzs access to the d.o.t. car system. when logged on to the cars system, your computer is considered a federal computer system and is property of the united states government, for any and all uses of this system and all files on this system may be intercepted, monitored, recorded, copied, audited, inspected, and disclosed to authorized cars, d.o.t., law enforcement personnel, as well as authorized officials of other agencies, both domestic and foreign." good god almighty! >> could it be any more broad

and frightening? here you are trying to be a good citizen and make a charitable contribution, do something that's good, and guess what? they are jumping right inside you, seizing all of your personal and personal information, and it is absolutely legal, glenn. they can do it. glenn: you know what? in a million years, i wouldn't click "continue." >> you can't. because guess what? they can continue to track you basically forever. once they tap into your system, the government has tracking cookies and they can tap in anytime you want. look, i'm not suggesting that the government engages in any kind of nefarious activity. glenn: no, that would be crazy! >> no, i would not say that, but you know what? they said for any intended use, purpose, foreign, domestic. it is so broad that they can just about do anything with it saying it is in the government's interest to protect against fraud and that type of thing. can you believe that? i mean, seriously, they can

have all your information. glenn: yes, i do, because i know who our czars are. these czars are evil people. they are wicked, crazy, frightening people. >> right. yes. glenn: jonah, where do you even go with this? >> we can separate out what the intent might have been. either this was someone really stupid in the federal government. >> no! glenn: really is, it? ok. how about goldilocks? >> as a conservative, you have to hold out the pos possibility that government people just stupid rather than evil. that said -- glenn: you know, i went down that road, jonah for a long time, but all of this stuff fits together. when you see the czars that they're putting out there, it all makes sense. these are people that just think that they're smarter than us, and not only have to take care of us, but they need to make sure that they take care of the things they need

to take care of, because it's better for theel collective. >> i agree it is all very troubling. let me give you a hard example of this. say you use skype or or internet system. if you're on the phone while logged in on this thing, the government can legally listen to your phone call. they can check out what websites you have been searching, because it says that -- >> that's right. glenn: wait, wait. >> jonah is correct. it's legal. there is nothing you can do about it. glenn: did you log on to this at your home? everything in your home is now theirs? >> basically, yeah. glenn: not your couch, just your computer? >> you may not like the language, but yes, they are well within their recourse to do so. it is very broad. is it is like an octopus that regenerates tentacles. glenn: we will do more of this on monday, america. i mean, you tell me what it means. what is this picture adding up to?

now, as if people flocking to auto dealerships to buy using government money wasn't enough proof that the recession is completely over, what are you nuts? take a look at the cover of "newsweek" magazine. it's right there. the recession is over! it's on the cover! well, i have been waiting for a conservative organ like newsweek to come out and say it, because we have all been thinking it. i could hear the collective cheer from the people standing in the unemployment lines, and they just went home. i mean, they're like, the storm is over, you know. no 9.5% unemployment to see here. keep moving, people. everything is great. never mind that the first 12 months of the u.s. recession saw the economy shah ink more than twice as much as previously estimated. let the healing begin. let's have a butdz a bud lite together at a really big picnic table. peter sheehan is ear, author

of acrash-proof, how to profit from the coming economic collapse." i don't know where to begin, peter. >> well, glenn, the recession might be coming to an end. the problem is the depression is just getting started. i have been saying this on the aid yo show for a while, and america, i need you to hear this clearly. what is come something a temporary good time, don't you think? i mean, not good time. you will start to see things like, well, ok, maybe, maybe, maybe. >> kind of like the high you do when you do too much drugs. the stimulus is an artificial stimulant that gets us deeper into debt. remember, we're in trouble because we took on too much debt. now we have even more debt than when the recession began. glenn: let me show the looming liabilities here. peter, explain what this is over here. by the way, do we have pictures of bunny rabbits or puppy dogs we can show? oh, look at that, such a happy dog. just go to your happy place. find your happy place when you have to. looming liabilities, explain

this. >> this is the debt as a percentage of our g.d.p. but that doesn't tell the complete picture. glenn: i know, that but if you look at '07, '09 -- werr we're now at 110%. >> it doesn't even reflect unfunded liabilities. 70% of our g.d.p. is consumers spending money. where are they getting it? they're borrowing. our g.d.p. can collapse overnight but the dead is still there. everything that we're doing to fight the recession is making it worse. i mean, you just talked about the cash for clunkers bill. you can think of anything more stupid than taking fully-paid for cars that work and paying people to destroy them. glenn: no! >> so that they can borrow more money to buy cars they can't afford. glenn: you were one of the first in the nation to talk about this nightmare that had been coming and god bless you,

you had been ridiculed for years, because when the party was going on, you were, like, hey, guys, maybe we should chose the party up a little early here, and you were right. you and i both know that if we stop spending, if the government stops spending, because this all bogus now, we're toast, so what these weasels in washington are doing is doing the same thing that they did in the former soviet union. you let the party go as long as you can until the transformation of this nation is ready, and then you transform it into something else. >> well, maybe if we stop spending, the politicians are toast, but we're toast if we keep spending. the only way to get a real recovery going is to do the opposite of what we did to get into this mess. we have to start saving. woo veto start producing, and we dch we have to start producing and we can't do that if the government is force-feeding more debt into the economy. glenn: peter, somebody asked me today, they said "glen, i know you hate the politicians and everything else, who do you believe in and who do you trust?

the answer is you, the american people. i mean, i don't understand how we don't get who we are. we can take pain. we took september 11. we can take whoa after blow after whoa. it is not -- we can take blow after blow after blow. it is the entrepreneurial spirit. if we fall, we will make it. we will help each other out, and then we'll rebuild. the government has no confidence that we can do anything on our own. >> other countries have done t countries have had to come back from losing wars. look at japan and germany after the second world war. i mean, we're not in that bad of shape, and if they can dig out of that hole, we can obviously dig out of this hole, but we can't do it if the government takes our shovels away from us. look at all the problems they created during the 1930's. we had a depression for over a decade because roosevelt and first hoover would not let us feel the pain. glenn: we are not in the same situation we were then. we didn't have all in debt. people generally owned their

homes. they could grow their own food we had an engine being built. >> we are in a worse situation, because we're starting off from a more vulnerable position. glenn: we're literally crushing our engines and sending it to china. that's what we're literally doing. >> exactly, with the chunkers, and i don't know about you but my first car in high school was a clunker. i was glad to have d glenn: mine, too. >> why are we destroying these cars, they have val iewvment glenn: because it is better for the planet. >> it is not better for anybody! glenn: but they're crushing them up, putting them on a giant ship, shipping them to china to make them into something else and then shipping back here as something else. you didn't elect them and you probably don't know who he they are, but they have a major impact on your life. they are the federal reserve. should they be audited? next.

i've been hangin' up there for, what, like, forty years? and then - wham - here i am smacking the pretty off that windshield of yours. oh, what you're looking for an apology? well, toss another coin in the wishing well, pal. it's not happenin'. limb: hey, what's up, donnie? how you been? anncr: accidents are bad.

anncr:but geico's good ding! with onsite windshield replacement.

glenn: that last story about your computer coming up in just a little while. the federal reserve is made up of unelected bankers. they determine the country's monetary policy and hold the future of this country right in their hands. now people across the country are crawling for transparency

in the fed. a lot of people are saying, why don't we abolish the fed? ron paul's bill to audit the fed now has almost 300 cosponsors. if everybody saw the video of democratic congressman alan g. ayson grilling the fed chair, ben bernanke, it might even be more than 75%. >> on page 26, which consists of your balance sheet, and one of the entries on the balance sheet is under "assets" central bank liquidity swaps, which shows an increase from the end of 2007 from $24 billion to $553 billion and change at the end of 2008. what is that? >> those are swaps that were done with foreign central banks. many foreign banks are short dollars, and so they come into our markets looking for dollars to drive up interest rates and create volatility in

our markets. >> who got the money? >> financial institutions in europe and other countries. >> which ones? >> i don't know. >> half a trillion and you don't know who got the money? >> the loans go to the central banks, and they then book them out to their institutions to try to bring down short-term interest rates in other markets around the world. >> let's start with which central banks got the money. >> there are 14 of them, that i'm sure they're listed in here somewhere. >> all right. so who actually made that decision to hand out a trillion dollars that way -- half a trillion dollars, who made that decision? >> the federal market committee. >> anything specific about it? >> it is in section 14 of the federal reserve act. >> we looked at one of the arrangements and one is $9 billion for new zealand. that works out for $3,000 for every person who lives in new

zealand. wouldn't it have been better to extend that kind of credit to americans rather than new zealanders? >> it's not costing americans anything. >> wouldn't it necessarily affect the credit markets if you extend half a trillion in credit to anybody? >> we are lending to all u.s. financial institutions, in fact, in the same way. >> well, look at the very next page. the next page has the u.s. dollar nominal exchange rate, which shows a 20% increase at exactly the same time that you were handing out half a trillion to foreigners. do you think that's a coincidence? >> yes. >> all right. well, the constitution says "no money shall be drawn from the treasury but in consequence of appropriations made by law." do you think it's consistent with the spirit of that provision in the constitution for a group like the fmoc to hand out a half a trillion

dollars to foreigners without any action by this congress? >> congress approved it in the federal reserve act? >> when was that? >> quite a long time. i don't know the exact date. 100 years ago. >> the original act is in 1914, i believe. >> i don't know whether this provision was in 1914 or not, but the federal reserve act was in 1913. >> at that time, the entire gross national product was well under half a trillion dollars, wasn't it? >> i don't know. >> is it safe to say that nobody in 1913 contemplated that your small group of people would decide to hand out half a till ondollars to foreigners? >> this particular authority has been used numerous times over the years. glenn: stop, stop! i can't take it anymore. you got to be kidding me! did you answer any of those questions the way he did? well, he's smarter than you. the editor of real clear

markets is here. john, help me out on this. i'm asking for some transparency. i want to look at your books. $9 till onseems to be an awful lot that he is like, i don't know what happened to it. h.r. 1207, 75% of americans support it and 300 congressmen support it, who is standing in the way of this coming to the floor? >> obviously barney frank really likes ben bernanke. secondly, when you think about the sponsors, i think there's -- glenn: wait. wait. are you saying that this is being held up because barney frank likes him, like, hey, pal, how are you doing? i'm going to do you a favor. or he likes the federal reserve? >> he likes the federal reserve and he likes ben bernanke, but i think when you look at the 300 sponsors, i think there's some politics going on there. a lot of them will cosponsor the bill, but they don't want this kind of power, because they like this right now.

the federal reserve makes mistakes that we discuss a lot that causes recessions but now they can grandstand. they can say, ok, the federal reserve caused it. we are going to bring you before congress. we're going to grandstand in front of the media and bash the bernanke fed. the last thing they want, which is then vacating their constitutional role, which is to coin money and regulate the value, they don't want this kind of power. glenn: i don't want them to have the power either! let the market work it out. i mean, again, if we were teaching actual history, you would see the depression of 1920 that nobody has heard of. why? because it lasted a year. why? because nobody did anything. it just collapsed and rebuilt. that's the way it works. in fact, that theory is the kondrake wave. that guy was the finance man for stalin. he shot him in the head.

end of story. thank you, john. i can't take anymore. thank god it is friday, america. >> did you hear the old one about the old lady selling her television sets? yeah, she's sick and tired of watching the president all the time. wait. that's not a joke. next. very beautiful. they come in blue or red, golden, green. algae could be converted into biofuels... that we could someday run our cars on. in using algae to form biofuels, we're not competing with the food supply. and they absorb co2, so they help solve the greenhouse problem, as well. we're making a big commitment to finding out... just how much algae can help to meet... the fuel demands of the world.

whether you consider it a cruiser or a clunker, you could turn it into cash. get to your dodge, chrysler, and jeep dealer, and get up to double the government's cash for your old car. now get up to $4,500 for your old car... plus, up to an additional $4,500 cash allowance. no turn-in? no problem. your dodge, chrysler, and jeep dealer guarantees everyone up to $4,500 cash allowance... on virtually every model. get to your dodge, chrysler and jeep dealer on the double, and get double cash for your old car! oa! honey honey honey honey honey! okay... i mean... you can't... this isn't a stove, alright? i mean... what if i just walked into the kitchen and started making a salad? - that'd be weird. - right? i mean, look, there's a technique. - okay... - ( strikes match )

wow. it's okay, everyone. - thanks, hon. - you're welcome. announcer: yep, it's that easy, - with kingsford match light. - ( match strikes ) having to go in the middle of traffic and just starting and stopping. having to go in the middle of a ballgame and then not being able to go once i got there. and going at night. i thought i had a going problem.

my doctor said i had a growing problem. it wasn't my bladder. my prostate was growing. i had an enlarging prostate that was causing my urinary symptoms. my doctor prescribed avodart. (announcer) over time, avodart actually shrinks the prostate and improves urinary symptoms. so i can go more easily when i need to go and go less often. (announcer) avodart is for men only. women should not take or handle avodart due to risk of a specific birth defect. do not donate blood until 6 months after stopping avodart. tell your doctor if you have liver disease. rarely sexual side effects, swelling or tenderness of the breasts can occur. only your health care provider can tell if symptoms are from an enlarged prostate and not a more serious condition like prostate cancer. so have regular exams. call your doctor today. avodart. help take care of your growing problem >> hello. making news at this hour, president obama nominating four u.s. attorneys if the senate confirms them, they will serve from nebraska,

rhode island and virginia. u.s. attorneys are the chief law enforcement officers for their districts. the nevada nominee, daniel bog den, has had the job before. he was fired by president bush, igniting a storm of controversy back in december 2007. mission accomplished. 7 astronauts aboard endeavour back on earth. they nailed the landing at the kennedy space center after doing some construction on the international space station. glenn beck will be back in a moment. first, bret baier is here with a peek at what is coming up on "special report" tonight. >> 1/6 of the u.s. economy hangs in the balance with healthcare legislation pending, washington was caught up with cash for clunkers today, plus the air force i flyover pictures you never saw. join me in 30 minutes for "special report." now back to glenn beck. >> glenn: hello, america. coming up in just a few minutes, i'm going to talk to you a little bit. i need your help.

i need your help on something, and i think that i'm going to change directions myself here on this show, and i need your help. i'll explain here in just a second, but first, a little candy. it's the hot list. some common sense solutions to the stories where the mainstream media is not doing their job. do you remember barack obama's anti-auntie that surfaced living illegally in government houseing? she had been ordered to leave the country when she surfaced in 2004 after her request for political asylum was turned down during the election and they said, hey, we'll do it after the lection, and then they said we'll postpone that again. according to the boss stons herald as she waits for her deportation hearing six months away, she is living in public housing. she told the herald "beggars can't be choosers. i would like to live in a castle and have a limousine,

but i don't. my wealth is my health." see, this is why i like her. the "herald" said she bristled when asked if her nephew would stand up for her saying "my problem is my problem. i carry my own cross. i'm an adult." wow. wow, would you like you to have maybe your nephew say those words from time to time. my question is -- not to aunt ie, but to her nephew, the president. let me ask you, mr. president, why aren't you helping out your aunt? are you afraid it might look bad? i mean, she is living in public housing. then again, you're living in public housing. very, very nice, very very expensive public housing, but i'm sure you could spare a bedroom or two for a relative. i mean, isn't there, like a place, like where lincoln laid his head down or something? can't we open than up for her? then there would be a place in boston that would be available for someone else who couldn't move in with a relative.

president obama, maybe you don't remember this, because i was very moved. your keynote address at the democratic national convention in 2004, oh, listen. >> there is a child on the south side of chicago who can't read that matters to me even if it's not my child. if there is a senior citizen somewhere who can't pay for their prescription drugs and have has to choose between medicine and the rest, i care about them more even if it is not my parent f there is an arab american family rounded up without benefit of an attorney or due process, that infringes on my civil liberties! it is that fundamental belief -- it is that fundamental belief, i am my bother's keeper. i am my sister's keeper. glenn: you know what? i are remember that differently. i thought he said "i am my auntie's keeper."

he made it clear, not my aunt, my brother, my sister maybe, but my brother. remember when illegals were being rounded up and not being given access to attorneys? wow, did i black out there for a while. by the way, a spokesman for the law firm said that they're not discussing any legal strategy, but they, quote, very optimistic about the outcome. oh, i bet you are. the government now is joining in on the war on chins. health and human service secretary kathleen seb bell yus says -- sebelius says most of the $1 billion to prevent disease prevention will go to fight obesity and hrts disease. she said a significant amount will go to help fight obesity. really? a billion dollars! that's incredible. a billion dollars! now i've got a choice.

heart disease or candy? how much money does it cost to tell people hey, you know what, that fatty stuff you shove in your face, exercise a little bit. my wife tells it to me all the time. i just don't pay attention. oh, well. you know what? secretary seb beale quus, i got a great -- secretary sebelius, i have a great deal for you. you give me half a billion and i'll come on every night and be your spokesperson and say if you eat all of these -- i don't know what happened to them because people are stealing them -- if you eat all these, you can look like this! and finally, a positive story of citizen action. have you ever noticed that president obama is all over television. did you see the countdown to the beer thing yesterday? well, not on this show but on other networks. they were counting it down. wasn't that great? i was fascinated by all the things i learned from it. dolores niesen, 78, an iowa woman, she thinks it's too much, so she's selling two of

her televisions in protest. i don't know if this is cash for clunking t.v.'s. she put a classified ad in iowa's daily times herald selling the t.v.'s because she, quote, was tired of obama on every channel and every station. niesen voted for mccain -- that was a good choice -- and says that she would understand the president on television for serious announcements, but he just seems to be on all the time. she told the paper she's keeping her larger flat screen with the remote in hand #red i did to change the channel whenever the president appears. well, that's a community citizen taking action. that is your hot list. >> looking for a job? well, glenn's hiring. america, glenn is about to put you to work. stand up and fight back! next. he ran off with his secretary! she's 23 years old!

- oh, come on. - enough! you get half. and you get half. ( chirp ) team three, boathouse? ( chirp ) oh yeah. his and hers. - ( crowd gasps ) - ( chirp ) van gogh? ( chirp ) even steven. - ( chirp ) mansion? - ( chirp ) good to go. ( grunts ) timber!

( singing continues ) yes. there for you when you're in a tight spot. yes. no. okay. yes. yes. yes. yes. no. glenn: i was talking to my radio show audience in the last week, and i have been sharing bits an pieces of it with you but i want to talk

to you one on one for a second. i feel like i need to move to a different direction on some of this stuff, and not necessarily search for answers on what is going on with this administration. i have been very frustrated. what are they doing? how could they possibly do this? there are a lot of people in america that are putting the pieces together and they see it in many different ways. some see it as putting a structure in place around our existing government, an exo-skeleton being built around our republic and rather than protect like they do in the animal kingdom, this is designed to feed off its host. at the same time, attacks are coming from every direction on the republic, some of it also by design. the attack agents are cap and trade, healthcare reform, card check, collapsing dollar, bailouts, stimulus bills, cash for clunkers, gigantic unsustainable debt, on and on. what did we do with the computers at the beginning of the show? remember, the only thing you need to know about barack obama is this man is a

community organizer. acorn. seiu. there are 300 affiliate organizations. the people that we told you earlier this week, the special interest groups that actually designed the stimulus package called the apollo project. one of the founding members on the board, wouldn't you know it, our green jobs czar. this is all happening along with americorps. the help of barack obama and ted kennedy, they have embedded themselves into the structure of this government. look at the czars and ask yourself, gee, who are these people and what are they doing? if and when, some would believe they could overwhelm the system to the point it cannot function anymore, and tell me, guys, we're not there or close to it, then they've already built a new system. it's already in place. all they have to do is just say, whoa, whoa, whoa, for the good of the republic, i didn't want to do this but i will have to fundamentally transform the united states of america, because obviously that's broken. in the movie "contact" the space travel machine was built

using alien technology. everybody knew that it would face widespread public opposition. well, it was wildly expensive. no one even knew if it would work, so when the machine was destroyed right there, everybody thought, oh, that's it. until it was revealed to the nation and to the world that there just happened to be another machine, already built and ready to go that no one knew about. >> why build one when you can have two at twice the price? only this one can be kept secret. glenn: america, we need to make sure that there is no other machine that our constitution and our system of checks and balances that our founding fathers saw. how do we do that? i'll tell you, next.

glenn: america, i'm asking for your help. the question that i am asked whereever i go, the number one question -- well, actually the number one question is when the lights are on in the studio, do you actually sweat gravy and the answer is yes, and that's why i keep a gravy boat underneath the desk here. the second question, is glenn, what can i do? i understand the problems. here it is. be a constitutional watchdog. no payment is available for this. it is just the constitutional watchdog for america. i'm going to be real frank with you. i am going to switch my focus to something else regarding this. i'm still going to be here. i'm going to be doing the shows on t.v., radio and

everything else, but i need my personal research team, their attention on something else, because i'm looking for a few things that i want to present to you. i will tell you about them when i can, if i, indeed, find what i think we're going to find. i need you you to keep watch over the most perfect political document given to mankind, our constitution. heaven knows our politicians not watchdogs anymore. here is what i want you to do. go to my website at glennbeck.com and here you will see on the front page, this is it, you come to the site, and right here, you will see this shield. it is the constitutional watchdog. when you click on that shield, it is an alert glenn. you click on the shield. we will have this shield on the bottom of the screen next week during certain stories. you will see it and we will tell you more about it on monday, but briefly, don't try to pay attention to everything, because it's impossible. as we discussed, they are throwing so much at us, and i

think that's by design. they are trying to overwhelm the system. no network can keep up. you can't keep up. it's too much information to assimilate. what i want you to do is to find something that you're passionate about, whether it's guns or cap and trade, something that you know about, healthcare. watch that one thing. watch what congress and the president and the czars are doing. pick one czar and learn everything you can about that person. now, whether it's cap and trade, you just find whatever you can, whatever it is, that's your job. when something comes up that doesn't feel right, doesn't sound right, you start barking loudly, like the constitutional watchdog that you are r you click on this shield, and you sent me an e-mail or you get on to twitter and give me a tweet. we will highlight the story you have uncovered. the story at the beginning of the show about the computers, that came from a constitutional watchdog from my radio show. we're not going to let these weasels get away with a damn thing. when you see that watchdog shield on the television show,

you will know it wasn't me who found that story, it was one of you, the watchdogs. i will tell you that i am working on a project, and it is to come to you and tell you how to make sure a machine isn't built and exactly what that machine is, but i have to tell you, i'm more optimistic, more hopeful now than i have been in a very, very long time. together, we will save the republic. together, we will wake enough americans up to stop what i firmly believe is an attempt to fundamentally transform america. those are not my words. those were barack obama's words. look for the shield. glenn beck.com. more on monday. back with a special message, also, from a viewer, next. where will you find the stability and resources to keep you ahead of this rapidly evolving world? these are tough questions. that's why we brought together two of the most
