Glenn Beck’s “Restoring Honor” Rally - Interviews w/ Participants

On 8.28.2010, Glenn Beck’s “Restoring Honor” rally was held on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial.  The purpose of the rally, which Beck claimed to be “non-political” despite featuring Tea Party-favorite Sarah Palin as a speaker and its being attended entirely by conservatives, was unclear.  The participants spoke abstractly about the need to restore “honor” and “pride” to a country that had lost it.  When pressed for when our country had lost its honor, most cited the election of Barack Obama.

borders on tl;dr but is kind of mysteriously illuminating and especially notable for the guy at about 9:40 who almost directly quotes a recent onion article.
