5:00 pm
>> demand it. captioned by closed captioning services, inc >> glenn: hello, america. the price of a gallon of gas now is $3.98 per gallon. 60% of americans say that $4 a gallon is the tipping point. we are two cents away. has anybody asked the tipping point of what? of what? your life changes what happens to the country. the dollar is continuing to fall. it's falling in a dramatic fashion. it's at a three-year low. if you have been watching this program and you didn't dismiss me as a conspiracy freak, you knew this was coming. here it is. it has been falling so dramatically, that now the home of the peso, think of this. mexico is tow buying 100-tons
5:01 pm
of gold. they say they need to get out of the dollar a little bit. mexico. how many pesos does it take to buy 100-tons of gold? also in the news, fatah and hamas brokered a deal. they have become allies against israel. the deal brokered by the new revolutionary teenage african-american in egypt. with osama bin laden, nobody is even talking about the expiration of the debt ceiling next week. or my favorite, the $200 billion in emergency funds that tim geithner found, where did i leave that $200 billion? some slush fund. $200 billion. he tapped that to help us along the way. also he found accounting tricks. to tide us over until next week. by the way, that $200 billion, we have already spent it. when did he find it? last week? the president has declared now that he has made his decision and he is not going the release the pictures of ubl.
5:02 pm
okay. by the way, arabic news agency is reporting today that a senior pakistani intelligence official said that one of osama bin laden's daughters has seen her daughter being shot dead by u.s. forces and she claims he was captured alive and then executed within the first few minutes of the operation. what do you believe anymore? what do you believe anymore? why don't you see. the photos and the president's trip, which i think is obsoon, to ground scene row is a -- ground zero is not about poll numbers. this is a misdirection. we could talk about the photos and what we release them and all the details. we could talk about it all day and most of america is.
5:03 pm
but in my heart, i have to tell you, we have to get off of that. there is a more important agenda. it's time we reset the conversation. the whole direction of anybody concerned, time to start moving forward. i used to say on the program, watch the other hand they're doing this. but what are they doing here? i guarantee while we focus on osama bin laden and the pictures, they are doing other things here. it's about time we turn the tables. it's about time they start worrying about watching our hands, because it's about time we put our hands to work. in a creative way. march 2009. it marked the beginning of the 9.12 project. i had the idea and i gave it to you and you took it and ran with it. let me ask you. what has it become?
5:04 pm
what have you done? a lot. the 9.12 project is what each person made of it. like life. what have you made? my guess is if you made it about politics and protests, your groups now are starting to dwindle and struggle. it may have struggled in power wars in tea party and everything else. many have been swallowed up by tea partys and many swallowed up by g.o.p. operatives and people are starting to question. now that the congressional election is over and the tea party has accomplished what they set out to do, what has changed? the g.o.p. still struggles to find a man or woman to match the times. who are you going to vote for? who are you excited about? donald trump? got to find someone to goes
5:05 pm
through the times. the countdown clock of our destruction ticks down dollar by dollar, right by right and lie after lie. the media still refuse to as mitt that the spontaneous revolution brought on by the youth of the middle east, were no such thing. the democratic revolutions always end the same way, as ours almost did 225 years ago. they end in chaos. or, a tyrant with a different face. the middle east, mark my words is headed toward a united union of sorts. it will be a caliphate. one that is defined by exdreamism, misery and death, the likes of which the world hasn't seen perhaps in centuries. as new leaders, strong enough to control the situation, rise, so will the brutality.
5:06 pm
honest liberals will admit this. if this was their argue in the the war against afghanistan and iraq. the world will be too familiar with the chant, "this is what democracy looks like," only then to wake up from the stupor of denial. and remember as with all things, democracy is what you make of it. he said what are you going to make of it? iran, remember, is a democratic state. they stone homosexuals, victims of rape they kill. and all those who speak against that brutality. we, on the other hand in america are not, nor have we ever been a democracy. but most don't even know that anymore. that is why the world is about to change. those who are the best organized as the battle begins will find themselveses in power. for better or for worse, the
5:07 pm
campaign promise that president obama will keep is the fundamental transformation of america. he also promised something else. it will be fulfilled. the transformation of the entire world. it's happening. our dollar is collapsing. jobs are becoming more and more scarce. corruption is being institutionmized. our faith is being rotted from the inside. our children are being indoctrinated in the world of marxism. our nation's unions are becoming increasingly difficult to distinguish from the brown shirts or the communist thugs of the last centurych our president is using our military as a perm hit squad. i'm not talking about ubl. i'm talking about the targeting and trying of killing gaddafi, and his children the same weekend we killed ubl. america, nothing is happening by chance. those who thrive off chaos,
5:08 pm
who will just never let a gad crisis go to waste have studied revolutions their whole lives. this is well thought out. all of the money literally in the world is up for grabs. a warning the those who think they are going to be a part of the new structure of power warning. you will find yourself in the end betrayed by global thieves. the structure and the money fueling the revolution is not coming from the people. it's coming from the uber rich. i'm talking about the uber rich. and the giant global corporations. the same ones that the anarchist and progressive youth are taught to despise. the leaders of the death cult used to say don't trust anyone over 30, man. maybe we should point that slogan out to the new followers. yet, with all of the clear obvious signs of institutional
5:09 pm
death of america, or transformation, most americans are either sleeping in self-imposed ignorance or have chosen to be believe the lie that they can. they can save themselves. or their pension. or their job. by embracing the agents of change and revolution. but they refuse to admit is that the only change from the last administration is matter of speed and boldness. they are not fighting for the people or the nation's best interest in washington. some are. many are not. the facts are that bush started tarp. but in the last two years, has it gone away? the last two years, everybody was fighting with george bush. in bed with big business? has big business lost its grip in washington?
5:10 pm
it hasn't. it has tightened it. it has been enfrenched and rewarded. g.e. pays no tax despite record earnings. g.m. is leeching the worker. and should be the poster child of corporate welfare, while it introduces the new green chevy volt. what a sham. the only thing green treasury notes that are going to the unions and the kickbacks now going again to general electric. wall street and the large, large corporate banks are more powerful and more wealthy. as they are the real recipients of the trillions of dollars currently being printed by our treasury. through the action of washington and the fed, the biggest of all corporations, the fed, the only group losing power is the worker. the people are being impoverished. they are losing the value of their homes, 401(k)s, and most of all, the people are being impoverished in voice. boy, does it sound like a
5:11 pm
marxist dream? the monologue i'm giving? no. it is a libertarian dream. set yourself free. america, it is time to choose sides. there are only two choices. in the end. one, loss of libertys for security. be it financial or physical. i have don't want to lose my pension. i have don't want to lose this. you will give your liberty away. to save something. that's choice one. choice two, loss of financial and possible physical security. for liberty. which will it be? the vast majority of americans will see this as an obvious choice. the answer has already been given by the people, over and over and over again. they choose one. for your safety, for the children, for the auto workers. for the financial institutions. we have to avoid another great depression. another fuel shortage. bit-by-bit we have answered
5:12 pm
this question. we have invested more and more in the agents of change which are the agents of destruction. for most the first option will require no more work. that's why they like it they are tire or lazy. you don't have to think about it anymore they will do it. just let them handle it. that's what i voted for. i gave them my vote. and my contribution. it's a continue wation of george w. bush's 9/11 solution. just go shopping. all people are required is that they go shopping. that you continue to fight the same tired battle. you know, the one that ends with anybody who disagrees with your side, are bigots or racist or just mindless shills for the corporations. the corporations, really? i'm standing against those giant corporations.
5:13 pm
how can by a mindless shill for them? now for those who aps number two, this is when the real work begins. because you are going to ask yourself now it's pretty easy to be for liberty. but when money is tight and you are losing your job and you're friendless, why is liberty worth serving for? how -- worth suffering for? how can there be personal freedom without financial freedom? are the poor truly free? what is freedom? do i want it? if responsibility is also required. what does my life look like if i choose liberty, real liberty? how could i possibly convince my spouse or my friends that this is the right choice? these are the same questions every great movement has struggled with. every time. the answers have to be found by each of us as an individual. and then deeply rooted and
5:14 pm
planted here. by people who have searched their hearts and then joined their hands. these answers are not going to come from washington. i mean, have you heard their choice already? it's one. if you believe their answer is no, no no,, liberty. really? have they taught you or talked to you or preached about preparedness and self-reliance? how can you have liberty if they don't say prepare to you? have they talked about those things or have they just been part of the nominal spending cuts, the birth certificate circus and regulation. who is standing there to slash the vines growing around the legs and the throats of the average person that built this country? political 9.12 and tea party groups. you have played a historic
5:15 pm
role and you will continue to be a powerful, powerful force for freedom. but this is a new era. since no one else will, i will call for the beginning of the third great awakening. the first precedeed the revolution and set americans free. but not all. then came the second great awakening. which set the slaves free. the third shall do the same. to a new and growing global pharaoh state. i'm just a regular person just like you. i am a dad. and a citizen. but i echo the words of william travis at the alamo. "come to the aid of liberty with all dispatch. come to her aid and let your weapons this time be the truth. compassion, honor, courage, and a firm reliance on devine
5:16 pm
providence. " i started to say before obama was even a nominee, that the unthinkable white star liner that has always been america has hit an iceberg. and as with all icebergs the real danger was still just below the surface. as was the damage to our beloved vessel. our country. our last few captains have either been in denial, or in league with a competing ship line, as they have been urging the passengers go back to the gaming tables. go back to the bars or go back to bed. we've got it. we've got it. that's why i asked you on the program over and over again, begin to build lifeboats for others. and do not allow hate or anger to build toward the crew or to your fellow passengers who have mocked, marred or tried to obstruct your evidents. i told you that there would
5:17 pm
come a time when the water would begin to come up. i would begin to rise. the ship would begin to list or rise up out of the water. that is when people would rush to the lifeboat panic and the crew would say no, no, don't go there. you would have to say please get in to the boat. that time is not here. but it is quickly approaching. unlike the movie "titanic," those with the keys to the gate, remember that scene to the third class cabin? they are not trying to open them and drop them, they are trying to close them and lock them, as the consigliatore of george soros saids he delivered his thinly-veiled threat to me and my crew the ship of the new world order either set sail or you are on it or you are not. i responded i am not. but don't let the message, his real message get lost.
5:18 pm
the rescue ship has already set sail. well, who is on that rescue ship? were you even offered a cabinner a chair? do you know who built it? where it's going? the elites will still deny that there is even a plan for a new global order. let alone that it's already left port. and they eventually claim you're aboard. ask yourself who puts another person on a boat to an unknown destination without consulting them first? you would think that those who just can't see past the slavery of colonial america would be able to recognize their current role as either slave masters, slave trader or a slave. believe me, in the end, those who are on that ship unless you're in the captain's cabin, you will be locked behind a gate with a steerage as your
5:19 pm
useful role of diversion comes to an end. when they no longer fear exposure. we as friends, we as family, as neighbors and americans, we must man our posts with malice toward none. help guide those who will otherwise be lost behind gates of so-called security. and chart a different course. using the light of freedom and liberty as our pole star. i warn you. as i start to go down this course, it's not going to make you more popular. you are going to be more tired. it will take more than an hour of tv every night or meeting with a group of like-minded people or gift of a pocket constitution. inflationary pressures on food and fuel are going to make your life and your neighbor's lives much more complicated in
5:20 pm
5:24 pm
>> glenn: i'm talking to you tonight not necessarily about the news of the day, but the news of the decade. the things that happened in the last decade and where we are headed as a nation. tell me what the competing idea to statism, globalism, shariah law. to marxism. who is the competing idea? you will say it's america. we'll get to that in a few minutes. what i'm asking you to do now is to ponder the things that i have said over the last two years and shore yourself up there is a new approach coming that will encompass everything that we have worked on here. in the 9.12 project. to the 40-day and 40-night challenge.
5:25 pm
to e-4 which i introduced earlier in the year. i i believe it will lead to transformation of the movement. it will not mean you have to adapt your schedule, but transform your life. it's not for the paint or half-hearted. it will require those who wish to become more than they are. or their country more than it is. or more than that they currently believe they can be or their country can be to become the lion-hearted. the giants that we spoke of in the mall on 8-28. those who have already started this journey toward greatness and true liberty. those who now walk the path to the bright side of history. those who hear the clarion call will center themselveses in the values and the principles that built this country. but will feel pushed now to the edge of their comfort zone. push to the edge of society by those masquerading as
5:26 pm
centrists. you must be ready. i ask you tonight to double your efforts on e-4. to know who it is you really serve, e-1 enlightenment. to know history. e-2. and the power of the individual, because the last one is entrepreneurship, to create something, to create something positive. i'm about to call on you. the country doesn't need any more followers. it needs leadership. will you lead? i am going to stop preaching to you every night. i'm going to start rolling up my sleeves and stand not here but with you. i invite you to stand with me. together. we will be the refounders with our children. we will be the human chain, guarding equal justice. together, the men and women of merit that george washington called to service. george washington implored the
5:27 pm
revolutionaries who fought against corruption and cronyism. and the big business of their day. and they fought and then they went to the constitutional convention. he said these words. let us now raise the standard to which the wise and honest can repair. he knew that it would fall in disrepair. it was a promise to them. that if they would do the hard thing then, we would do the hard thing now. let us do the hard thing. let the honest and the wise rise up now. first, to repair themselves. to make sure that they are honest. and that they are wise. so they may be worthy to do his work and repair this standard. so once again, the whole world can see the true flame of freedom. that man has so rarely
5:28 pm
enjoyed. there is so much that -- look, do you remember when we were making fun of community organizers? it was about two years ago do you see the power of something as small and as silly as acorn? out of acorn grows a mighty oak. i know some of the things that i talk to you about, the e-4 project and everything else might seem silly to you. please, don't dismiss them. right before i walked over here today i put together a message because i knew i wasn't going to have the time to tell the whole story. a story of a woman that took something i mentioned, something we mentioned a few times on the program. you might not have noticed it. but she did. she was listening and she was watching and she took it and it completely changed her life with dozens of others, but it changed one person in particular that she never saw coming. check her story out at
5:30 pm

i'm patti ann browne. the answer is in. president obama will not allow graphic photos of osama bin laden's dead body to be released. the white house says the final decision was made this morning. press secretary jay carney said the president has seen the pictures and he does not want them floating around and inciting additional violence. he said, "we will not see bin laden walking on this earth again." some republicans, including chair of house intelligence and homeland security committee agree with the decision. for more reaction, go to foxnews.com. glenn beck returns in a moment but first, bret previews "special report." hi, bret. >> bret: hi, coming up in we're live in greenville, south carolina, site of the first debate of the presidential campaign season tomorrow night.
5:34 pm
we'll have a preview. plus, new details on the osama bin laden raid. join me in 25 minutes for "special report." but now, back to glenn beck. in new york. ♪ >> glenn: i have to tell you, as i was preparing today's show, i said to my staff there is absolutely no reason this show is the most successful show in the history of cable news at 5:00. zero reason for that. everything we do goes against common sense and we break every television rule. right now, we should be analyzing osama bin laden east death. every last bit of it. last night i was on judge napolitano's show on fox business. and he was worried that the white house is now using executive orders to kill people. we are in libya.
5:35 pm
what about osama bin laden? walking up to the studio i had to decide where i stood on that. i realized i know where i stand, but you can't tweak the system. it's so far out of line, you need to reset the system. for better or worse, we have been telling you that things were about to change there are the naysayers and i hope to god i'm wrong and i mean that. nothing is happening by chance. i believe those who are the best organized will find themselveses in power. if i ask you to organize, what are you organizing on? what do you believe in anymore? i want you to ask yourself tonight who are we? who are we? who are you? what is it you believe in? i don't know who we are as a nation anymore. i don't recognize us. i don't know who our friends and allies are anymore. i have don't know why we have
5:36 pm
some of the friends and allies. saudi arabia we know why they are our ally. it was oil. that was it. this was terror, pakistan, that's it. we don't have anything in common with us. please. france? thank you for the statue of liberty. fantastic they are moving toward the foe and thinking now about getting out of nato. the woman who would beat sarkozy today, get out of nato and make an alliance with russia for oil. germany moving toward russia. these guys are oil they're pisted at us. these are little black sheeps. tea party members, anytime you start feeling down, imagine the little box that israel is in.
5:37 pm
friendless. i think you get point. why is all of this changing? who are we? what are we becoming? if you really want to know who we are, you have to start back at the beginning. what separated us from the rest of the world? the land? the car? the house? or was it something else? what makes us uniquely america? if you are the president, you will say there is no difference between us and spain except arrogance, really. just the arrogance. i'm spanish. whatever. people are people. but there was a new and revolutionary idea in america. maybe we need to go back to that idea. what was the idea? the idea that man can rule for himself.
5:38 pm
how does he do it? america is great, because america is good. what makes us america, really, and unique? right now, i read a story today that americans are just killing killers. that's the spin. on one of -- which one was it that said that? america is a bunch of thugs, killing killers, osama bin laden. that's why we need a revolution. no. no. don't you see, everything that is making us america is being dismantled. this is -- you may have a different list. this is mine. we're individuals. then we're pioneers, we're dreamers, we're courageous, charitable. fair-minded. and people of faith. i put this list down yesterday. it started to look at this list. and i thought to myself, really? are we individuals anymore? are we individuals? look what our system is doing.
5:39 pm
it's all about collective salvation. the people or the workers. it's them. us against them. the rich versus poor. the blue collar versus the white collar. politicians against the people, or people against the politicians. you can't do it on your own is the rallying cry. it's no longer yes, i am. it's yes, we can; meaning the government now. one out of every seven americans are on foot stamps. that is where you arrive after saying yes, we can. the next two are pioneers and dreamers. are we that? not pioneers anymore. we're dreamers but we're daydreamers. we're not dreamers. we oar losing the ability to even think out of the box. you have to be concerned when our teenagers flood the internet to google who is osama bin laden?
5:40 pm
i bet they can name all the real housewives of new jersey. but they don't know who osama bin laden is. that is why van jones and a ger have said you know things that your parents just don't. that's why they are forgetting our children. because they know their empty vessels. because of regulation you know it's now damn near impossible for the bill gates of the next generation to create another microsoft in their basement? you can't do it. courageous? what does courage even mean anymore. courage to stand and go to a tea party. that was pretty courageous for a lot of people. courage to stand if you are in a union. and to say i disagree. how about courage to stand alone? tell me how full of courage is a country when they are all folding to political
5:41 pm
correctness. as individuals we need intestnal fortitude of israel. you want to be alone? be them. they are surrounded. they're going down swinging. maybe we're charitable. no. no. no. charity is under attack now as well. charity, that's the i.r.s. how about fair-minded? are we fair-minded? no, no. not anymore. americans aren't fair-minded they're racists. that's why we have to have this constitution over -- institution for social justice because they're not fair minded as individuals. you have to have an ngo or special interest group to provide that so we treat each other right. are we people of faith? well, we might be. do we actually practice it? atheists and political correctness and sloppy people of faith. social justice. by the way, when i say atheists i don't have any problem with an atist.
5:42 pm
it's the militant atheist or the militant muslims or the militant catholics or mormons, militant anything. my way or the highway. that is not america. the best way to teach people of your faith or absence of? live it. people will see you're happy and want to know what makes that guy happy or strong. i believe individuals will find their own way or they will not. i do know this. i can't save you, nor can anyone else. you have to choose to find the truth. you have to choose to apply it. you have to choose to be who you are meant to be, not who you allow yourself to become. not be part of a stagnant collective to sit around waiting for a savior to save you, a government official to walk in and do it for you.
5:43 pm
5:47 pm
>> glenn: if you want to rebuild something you have to figure out who you were in the first place i don't know if you notice this but we live in a society. if the government doesn't get its way the response is get that ceo fired. they are going after ceo of major drug company. he's a conservative and outspoken. they are threatening him and now threatening the board. they say get rid of him or we will do no business with you. for drug company saying they won't do business with a drug company that is death. as andy stern said we watched how they voted. we know where they live. they will use the power --
5:48 pm
sorry, the persuasion of power. is this who we have become? how much more do you take? the fifth most essentialed question on google on sunday who is bin laden? nearly one in five searches for bin laden were by teenagers. 25% of all searches overall for bin laden came from those under 24. didn't even know. how are we going to expect them to defend freedom? do they remember what real freedom is? i don't. i don't know if i had it in my lifetime. september 10, 2001, do you remember what it was like to go into an airport and not have the lines of security, take off the belt? go to ticket counter and the gate? do you remember what it was like? do you remember what real freedom was like when we were kids? when the parents would let us play outside and get up at
5:49 pm
crack of dawn on saturday and race to do our chores. c'mon, mom. she is like finish the chores first. then you finish and you'd be gone. the screen door would slap against the front of the house and all you would hear is her voice saying be home in time for dinner. freedom for parents to do that? we don't have any thought that we are ever going back to that again. we don't have any thought that we could ever be in an airport again without the long lines. c'mon, we have no thought we'd go back to way it was before when it was decent? i ask you. who are we? our individuals, pioneers and dreamers and people of courage. is that what they want? charitable people. fair-minded people. people of faith and god. is that where you are headed?
5:50 pm
isn't it time to square those things in our personal life? you have to do it first. define the idea. what are we moving toward? don't tell me we are moving forward 1776. don't tell me we are headed toward 1791. we want some of the ideas of 1791. we want those. restoration of those ideas. but we want something more than that. the idea of 1791 along with the understanding and the vision of 2091. that is what we must work together to build. i again ask you to join me on a personal journey oaf the next few months. this is a journey like any marathon or mountain climb. you have to get in shape first. if you are not a member of a group, join one. if you haven't taken 40 day and 40 night challenge, take it.
5:54 pm
5:55 pm
this is courage. he decided to host a night to honor israel. bringing people together in san antonio, texas in the event there was a bomb threat. all of the christians he said made a "b" line to the front door. the jews stayed put. apparently they were used to it. he told his wife we are going to do this the next year, year after, year after that until they get the message we're not going to sit down. that's what they did. it takes courage. i'm proud to say he hasn't sat down and i am beginning to stand up. i am going to stand next to the pastor and i will be speaking at the event this year in washington, d.c., in july. go to glennbeck.com for details. another story of courage. bonhoeffer. i talked about this on the show. dietrich bonhoeffer. a friend of miner rick, this book changed my life. congratulations to eric. just won the christian book of the year.
