April 30: Arrogance, Hypocrisy, and Irresponsibility
This weekend, Glen talks about President Obama’s Middle East, economic, and energy policies. Glen also comments on President Obama’s decision to chastise the American public and media after he released his long form birth certificate. Instead of lecturing the American people, perhaps the President should exercise some humility by apologizing for not laying this issue to rest three years ago.
Finally, Glen remembers those who are suffering in the Southern United States following this week’s deadly spring storms.
Thanks for listening.

Glenn on your radio show you mentioned twelve reasons about the Democrats, could you post these for us so we can make a copy and send them on to our liberal friends. Thank you
Listen to your show every week and enjoy it very much even when Mr. Kenjor is on. God Bless
Hi Betty,
Thanks for your inquiry. Here they are as posted at http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2699584/posts
1. I voted Democrat because I believe oil companies’ profits of 4% on a gallon of gas are obscene, but the government taxing the same gallon of gas at 15% isn’t.
2. I voted Democrat because I believe the government will do a better job of spending the money I earn than I would.
3. I voted Democrat because Freedom of Speech is fine as long as nobody is offended by it.
4. I voted Democrat because I’m way too irresponsible to own a gun, and I know that my local police are all I need to protect me from murderers and thieves.
5. I voted Democrat because I believe that people who can’t tell us if it will rain on Friday can tell us that the polar ice caps will melt away in ten years if I don’t start driving a Prius.
6. I voted Democrat because I’m not concerned about millions of babies being aborted so long as we keep all death row inmates alive.
7. I voted Democrat because I think illegal aliens have a right to free health care, education, and Social Security benefits.
8. I voted Democrat because I believe that business should not be allowed to make profits for themselves. They need to break even and give the rest away to the government for redistribution as the Democrats see fit.
9. I voted Democrat because I believe liberal judges need to rewrite the Constitution every few days to suit some fringe kooks who would never get their agendas past the voters.
10. I voted Democrat because I think that it’s better to pay billions to people who hate us for their oil, but not drill our own because it might upset some endangered beetle or gopher.
11. I voted Democrat because while we live in the greatest, most wonderful country in the world, I was promised “HOPE AND CHANGE”.
Oh, you noticed there were 11 reasons vs 10? There are plenty more where these ideas came from.
Please provide me further information regarding the “three Rivers inventors” fair that you discussed on your radio show last weekend 4-30-2011. You were interviewing a woman involved in an organization accepting applications to demonstrate new ideas etc
More information about the “3 Rivers Venture Fair” can be found at http://www.3rvf.com/
3rvf is a great networking event…really should be considered an investment for entrepreneurs.
Might I also suggest the following for potentially getting your idea heard:
