This happens to be a bit connected, IMHO, but as I was turning channels to get to watching the Masters today, I caught a bit of a program, on Fox News, that was being hosted by Glenn Beck. It appeared to be more like a forum, with College age students, both in the audience, and on the state with him. The crux was that it was a forum of young conservatives. Was there any yelling, ranting, jumping up and down, calling Obama is Hitler or anything like that?? Nope, it was as if I was in a lecture hall, where the students could voice their concerns and issues, not just about the country, but in how they're having to deal with their views on campus. Did Beck advocate anything nasty, unethical, immoral, or even outrageous?? Nope, told the students to challenge those liberal professors. Get them to explain the "why's", and not simply to take their word as Instructor/Professor, and go home.
It was civil, it was calm, it was concise, it was objective, and it screws alot of thoughts that Beck is just some out of control fringe right radical. Does he get a tad hyperbolic on his show? Yea, I'm sure he does. But here was a forum of like minded conservatives, all having an extremely civil & intellectual conversation on todays biggest issues & concerns, in both the Educational field and in the direction this country is trying to be steered. I'm going to have to find out if that program is replayed and record it in its entirety. But for now, its back to the Masters
