Obama Builds a Big Tent . . . for Conservatives - WSJ.com: "It will drive liberals crazy, but Glenn Beck's 'Restoring Honor' Rally probably outdrew Rev. Martin Luther King Jr's original 'I Have a Dream' rally, on which it was patterned. Mr. Beck's rally also lived up to its promise to be non-political. Weaving through the crowd on Saturday, the most partisan sign I saw read 'I Can See November From My House.'
On a BBC panel discussion afterward, one of my fellow participants insisted the rally was political nonetheless because so many who attended share what he called a 'quasi-religious' view that the U.S. Constitution should be interpreted as it was written. Leaving aside the confused exercise in pop psychology, he was right in one sense: The rally was yet another demonstration of how the Obama administration's excesses have brought different strands of the conservative movement together."
