The 912 Project: Glenn Beck Preaches 9 Principles and 12 Values

 My humble host Glenn,

The thought came to me when you had the girl on from the wonder years and you talked about how much money it would be if it was divide up among the american people, I'm not sure of the amount on one trillion dollars, I thought it was about $3000 to 4000 dollars, not that most of us have not sacrificed enough all ready, but what would happen if every american allowed our government to keep our tax return for one year, or maybe two years, how close would we be to paying off our national debt? would it save our children and grand children from taking on this burden, would that get us out of this hole we are in? what would it take? I would give back my share rather then have to go through years of heartache and stress, what do you think about that idea, maybe some one has an idea to build on this one. just one added note, I have a daughter and her husband serving in our Marine corp. My daughter is serving in Afghanistan and her husband is in Iraq, On his second tour of duty, there names are Zack and Lisa Gallenburg, when Zack was serving on his first tour, my daughter decided to join, he headed back to Hawaii for more training and came home for just a couple of days so they could ged married, he arrived on a saturday and got married on sunday and shipped back out to Hawaii to finnish his training before heading back ti Iraq, they never had a real chance to have a real life together or a honeymoon, I sure hope they will get that chance, I pray they get a safe return and a real chance at life, and this ends soon, I'm not feeling to optimistic that this will Happen, God then Family just like you keep saying, keep the faith! Keep up the good work!

 P.S. You do have that Tammy Fay Baker look... Except for the hair... :)Steven And Cathy Potter, 1000 Genesee Street, Waukesha WI. 53186  Thanks again for all you do

The 912 project is a really good idea and I hope something will come of it.  If enough people get involved it might be even possible to pressure state legislatures to call a constitutional convention for the purpose of making a few amendments.  Good ones that spring to mind would be congressional term limits and requiring a federal balanced budget.

It seems that Glen is reaching out to all of the people that feel betrayed by their elected representatives be they Republican or Democrat.  Most of this betrayal stems from the fact that spending is out of control!  The Republicans spent a massive amount of money on the Iraq War which included no-bid contracts for companies like Halliburton.  Meanwhile, the Democrats have spent the first few months of this year trying to top the GOP's crazy spending.  It makes absolutely no sense to try to spend our way out of a recession.  In the end, if these deficits continue our economy will most likely collapse and we will face a depression that will make the one in the 30s look like a warm-up.

Thank you Glen Beck!  You have managed to do the "one thing" that those yahoo's in Washington have failed to do... Unite the People of America in a cause that really will make a difference, not one that makes people get goosebumps up their legs because they think they finally have a Hollywood rockstar in the White House!  All we need are some T-Shirts now with a big 9.12 on the back... I am so grateful you have taken up this cause, one that surely will catch on with anyone who is quickly losing faith in our system of government.  It's not too late, it's never too late to take a stand for this great country. 

Thank you Glen and God Bless and Protect you and your family!

We the people need to form our own march and we need to do it to the steps of the capital on 9-12. Lets do it, Glenn!!!

I am so greatful for all Glenn does.  I feel very alone.  Im unemployed not because i am lazy but because I am laid off and the jobs just are not there.  I see the government adding more regulation and taxes on me and on the future of my children.  Soon I could easily see my home gone as well as everything I have worked so hard for.  I am not wanting sympathy or a hand out.  I just wish Obama and his cronies would realize I want a hand up so I could work again.  Its refreshing to see that no matter what happens, that Americans are banding together to again take back their country from all the jerks in Washington.

I have been trying to hit this site since last night

we got in once then it came up and said is this in issue with Firefox or the web site? if any one knows the answer please help

I have been so frustrated and disheartened as when reading President Obama's proposed budget.  My husband has been self-employed in real estate for the past 10 years, and I was a teacher before staying home with my children.  My husband's profession was completely eradicated this past year.  I have been trying to obtain a teaching position, but with budget cuts there are few positions to be had.  We fall into a category of people that have always worked, paid our bills on time (until this past year), and paid annual taxes.  We have always donated money to many people and groups whenever we had it to give.  We carry insurance, but we are severly under insured.  Our current deductible is $7500.00 per year for our family.  It is unlikely that we will reach our deductible unless something unexpected occurs, God forbid.  We pay for the majority of our medical expenses.  Our children go to the doctor only when absolutely necessary, and the two of us don't go unless we are severly ill.  We also do not qualify for unemployment, as we have not been employed by a company for some time.  We started out with very little, made a good living after college, and are back at the point of counting the dollars every month.  (Oh and by the way, we paid for our own college by working days and going to school at night.)  We do own a home, for now, and will do anything we can to keep it.  My husband does any small jobs he can get to make ends meet.  We are not lazy or complacent.

I am angry and upset that this new plan seems to really benefit very low income individuals and families.  What about those of us actually trying to make it.  Don't we deserve any of this aid?  Do we deserve to keep our homes, feed our families, and qualify for assistance?  Mr. Obama can you explain to me and all the other middle class families what you can do to help us?  Or will you just let some of the most creative, hard working individuals fail and fall into poverty?  Maybe then we can qualify for some help.

Mr. Gardner brought up the idea to do a project that would give people one million dollars.  I think what he did not get to explain is that some people would make the money grow and be able to live on it for years, some would live on it until it ran out, and some would spend it as fast as they received it and be back to a low income status when it ran out.  Redistribution is the same.  No matter how much money you give to some people, they will not be good stewards of that money.  Why should people that work hard (some of them still making a good living) be forced to give money to people that won't use it wisely?  Continuing down this path will only make a select few wealthier, and the majority poorer.  Sound like socialism anyone? 

Thank you Glenn Beck.

We stand behind you and your message

Wow!! I'm still having trouble getting on the site.  There aren't any words to describe the feelings Glen Beck is bringing up in me.  I pray that this catches on and "We the People" take back the United States of America

I am getting the access forbidden error as well. 

Great show Glen!  I am behind you 100%.  The tea party grassroots movement reteaparty.com supports the same cause.  There will be nationwide tea parties held on 4/15 and other dates.  We need to join all of these like minded groups into a coalition and act together.

They can have my freedom when they pry it from my cold dead hand.

I can't believe you people think a shill for the Republican Right, who served as a mouthpiece for Bush's lies on Fox, is going to help you reclaim values and principles. Absolutely unreal.

We all need to take this further. As Chuck Norris' wife said "we need to show our muscle." We need to stop the insane expansion of the government, the wasting away of our hard earned tax dollars and the destruction of our beliefs and principles and WE NEED TO DO IT  NOW, BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!  It is almost too late. We need to act and let Nancy Pelosi, Barack Obama and Harry Reid know that we won't go down this road with them and that we certainly will not be paying for it. If everyone could organize for a viewing party we can organize for a massive protest to make our voices heard. We will get the engourged government we deserve if we do nothing. It is time to fight for our principles and for our beliefs and for the country we all love. Please Glen Beck, take this project and turn it into a full blown movement we can all participate in to save our way of life. Please.

Congress has never forgotten the part about we the people they just believe their the only people that matter now.  No matter what we say I can't say all of them but some think that they are the people. They seem to think now that Obama is president they think they no longer have to follow by the same rule which is obsured.  They  stil have to answer to the people who put them into office and pass bills that the american people want not just democrats or even republican.  If they don't wise up soon they'll find themselves without a job.  Remember we put them in office and can easily take them out next time we need to vote if they dont listen to all of us.

I am so glad to know that I am not alone.  Being a Conservative and watching the Liberal left drag us into Socialism makes me ill.  The Liberal left is not alone in this, as the Republican Party also has to share the blame.  The elected officials that hold office are arrogant and do not listen to WE THE PEOPLE.  I am not just talking about the President and Congress but State and local politicians as well.  They are drunk with power and they seem to think that they know what is best for us.  I say what is best for us is for us to take our Country back.  I do not trust any politician, Democrat or Republican, and they will have a hard time to earn back my trust.  We are the silent majority and it is time that we stand up and let these arrogant weasels know that we are mad as hell and are not going to take it anymore.  All of you Politicians better listen up.  There is a movement going on and we are going to be heard.  The USA stands for the United States of America and not the United Socialist America.  I am with all of you.  May God Bless each and everyone in this great Nation.

Good 'ol Repubs, just scream 'Socialism' or 'Commmunism' and the sheep jump in line. Disregard the fact that the massive spending going on now is neccesary to try to avoid a Republican-engineered Depression....

Bravo, Glenn Beck!  And huge thanks for what you are doing.  I especially appreciate the emphasis put on the importance of God and faith.  We are in a lot of trouble in this country and moving away from God is in large part the reason for many of our problems.  Over the past years, the far Left, secularists and organizations like that ACLU have made massive efforts to totally eliminate God and religion from the United States.  If we fail to protect our constitutional rights, including freedom of religion, we do so at our peril.

We must take back our country from those who wish to destroy it.  We must get involved and prevent the United States of America from becoming nothing more than a mediocre European-style socialist society.  Self-sufficiency, personal responsibility and hard work made this country great.  Let us all work to see that those things are re-enthroned in our culture.

Thanks again, Glenn, for giving those of us who feel alone a way to channel our energies and do something to preserve our wonderful country!

I too have been trying to connect to the website and have been forbidden. There are many of us who also have the belief that our country has lost it's values and principles. Glenn is right, we need to stand up and take our country back!!  Our countries constitution was founded on God and we need to return to his teachings before it is to late.  Please upgrade the site so many more can express how they feel.  Thank you Glenn.
