On Today's Program
Glenn's speech
Missed Glenn's speech or want to watch it again? We've got your back. You can watch it HERE. Plus, Glenn is extremely grateful to each and every person who took the time out of their busy lives to venture to Washington D.C. for the event. Here's a special thank you message from Glenn to you. WATCH
What does it all mean?
The media seems to be having a hard time understanding that the Restoring Honor event was actually about Restoring Honor and not a GOP election booster. Since the media completely missed the mark on the meaning of the event, Glenn recaps what it is each and every individual should be doing in their own lives to help start turning the country around. ( Transcript, Insider Audio)
Expect miracles: An amazing moment happened just as the event kicked off and the music started rolling - a flock of geese flew in perfect V formation over the Reflecting Pool straight towards the Lincoln Memorial. God’s version of a military fly over? Someone caught it on video - decide for yourself. WATCH
Hilarious crowd reports
From 'tens of thousands' to CBS and their '87,000' number, the media bent over backwards to describe Saturday's sea of humanity on the mall in an unflattering manner. The media didn't hesitate to offer up generous numbers for Barack Obama's large crowds, but they've trotted out 'crowd experts' to try and nail this one down. Glenn talks about not just the size of the crowd -- but more importantly the quality of the people who made up that crowd. ( Transcript, Insider Audio, FREE Insider Extreme clip)

Much bigger increases in employee costs are on the horizon. Thanks to huge unfunded pension and retirement health-care promises granted by past governments, and also to deceptive pension-fund accounting that understated liabilities and overstated future investment returns, California is now saddled with $550 billion of retirement debt.
The cost of servicing that debt has grown at a rate of more than 15% annually over the last decade. This year, retirement benefits—more than $6 billion—will exceed what the state is spending on higher education. Next year, retirement costs will rise another 15%. In fact, they are destined to grow so much faster than state revenues that they threaten to suck up the money for every other program in the state budget. (See the nearby chart.)

The question we pose is at the heart of the TEA PARTY movement. Is it right for 10% of the population, who pay no income taxes, be allowed to vote for candidates who propose more tax credits for them? Why is it that they who have paid no money into social security be allowed to collect social security. We are broke and now we know why. Our politicians have pampered the underclass to the detriment of the hard working taxpayer. This has to stop.
