Glenn Beck’s New Documentary **Update**
By omb on Jan 22, 2010 in 17th Amendment, Congress
** I guess I misunderstood that which Beck would be addressing in the scope of his documentary, although it was interesting – especially for anyone not familiar with the antics of Che, or Stalin’s starvation of the Ukraine, it really didn’t focus at all on the progressive movement, which I’d have sworn I heard him say that it would. I’ll have to see if he gets to this in future installments.** omb
Glenn Beck’s documentary on the impact of progressivism on America airs today at 3pm. I’ll be interested to see if he mentions the scourge of the 17th Amendment and how it has led to the control of the Congress by special interests and lobbyists, and to the out of control spending that is prevalent today. This is why our ‘system is broken’, per John McCain. Senator Zel Miller, upon his retirement from the Senate, stated in his last address to the Senate that the 17th Amendment was the instrument by which lobbyists gained control in Washington D.C., and should be repealed. I’ll be writing more on this soon, but watch Beck to see if he mentions it. If he doesn’t, he’s missing the boat.
