My reading ability is quite fine thank you.  But yours may be in question, in reading the biased article I see this.

'" Attendees will be invited to "pledge to restore honor" to America at the steps of the memorial.'

Now for your lesson in reading comprehension 101 that would indicate that those that have lost faith in the way America is being run are pledging to restore honor to this country.  No mention there of any lack of honor for our troops to whom I already have the utmost respect and honor for.

Please, when you quote from your own article, don't reduce yourself to leaving out partials to try to make the statement fit your argument.

Logic, that is how he operates. I love how you nailed him on this. If anyone happened to watch any coverage of this huge event, s/he would realize that Glenn's idea is to restore honor to ourselves first in order to restore honor to our great country.

Also, tp probably forgot that Sarah and Todd Palin have a son who is currently in the armed forces, so, indeed, she honors the "troops".

Logic - I have not tried insult you in any way. I know you're smart. I've seen you get things when no one else had a clue as to what was being said.

You ignore Beck's reference to America's heroes (AKA our Troops) just one sentence prior to the words restore honor to America. When you go to his web site and watch video after video like this:

You know who's honor he's claiming needs to be restored. Now I have never lost the feeling of honor for our troops or our country. If my patriotism riles my soul when ignorant people, such as Beck, speak so carelessly about honor...... Accept my apology.

Beck has changed how he described his assembly so many times I don't see why anybody can still be arguing about what it is or was.

A Media Matters summary lists restoring honor, educational seminar, political rally, book release party, veterans benefit, civil rights rally, celebration of Martin Luther King, religious revival. and all of the above.

If he wants to change it again after the fact to suit his pruposes, he'll do that too.
