I was fortunate to be able to attend Glenn Beck’s Restoring Honor Rally held in Washington, D.C. It was a wonderfully humbling and spiritually uplifting patriotic event.
The various speakers and their personal stories of faith, hope and courage in the face of devastation and horrific circumstances were inspirational. It was very moving and there were so many times when there were more misty eyes than dry ones.
Even with over a half million people in attendance, not one single arrest or incident occurred. Pretty impressive, I’d say. The media is trying desperately to disparage this event, but they can’t find anything negative to report.
It was not billed as a political or Tea Party event, and, as such, there weren’t any anti-government signs to be seen. Whether or not there were “tea partiers” there is irrelevant.
What I saw were 500,000 decent patriotic Americans wanting nothing more than to bring America back to greatness through the revival of honor, integrity, spirituality and truth in ourselves and our leaders.

Not in the Bible, but the Communist Manifesto
President Obama has hit a new low. By promoting his reasoning for hiking taxes on the rich at the National Prayer Breakfast, he diminished the seriousness of his proposals and manipulated Jesus’ teachings for his own political purposes. How pathetic.

Argument for same-sex marriage is superficial
I am writing in response to a letter by Ian Stafford entitled, “Equal standards on marriage should be applied to everyone” (Feb. 3 Times-News).
The first thing I noticed about the article is the title. It appeared to be a Gov. O’Malley talking point repeated by his supporter to reframe the issue and promote his radical agenda. -
