Until recently I was unaware of Mark Levin's existence. I think a lot of people are going to know who he is now with his new book Liberty and Tyranny, introduced to me on both Rush's and Sean's shows. I can't get him live but on MarkLevinshow.com you can stream or download shows, I download them to my mp3 player and listen to it commercial free as I would any other show. I find him cerebral and very informative as well as very passionate that doesn't sit well with Barbara that thinks all conservative radio people scream at you, I don't see it exactly like that. You might want to give him a listen.
Yesterday, Mark did something interesting. He listed a 10 point program and compared it to the Obama agenda and then asked what was it. It was Karl Marx communist manifesto. I actually knew this from my Russian History course in college. Which is a interesting story and very relevent to todays educatinal system. I loved the course, and I love history. Anyone that has attended college will understand what a blue book is, if not it is about an 8" X 8" blank booklet with I am guessing about 20 pages lined. I attended every lecture and read and studied all the material and in my mind understood it completely. Came time for the mid term, a blue book was thrown on your desk and a couple of what we would call essay questions were to be answered. I wrote and wrote and wrote, filled almost 2 blue books after everyone else had left. I made the big error of thinking and dared to question the communist manefesto. You can imagine my disappointment when I got an "F". It wasn't that I didn't know the material it was that I dared to question the communist system. This really confused me, all my other courses in and Engineering School were aimed at getting you to think and to think logically. It was too late to drop the course so I got an F, I wasn't the best student for sure but I had pretty good grades otherwise but it didn't help my average that year. I should have had it reviewed by someone but I was young and not as bold as I am today. So I can imagine a Junior High and High School kid without proper training from home being barraged with the same exact mindless acceptance by our all to liberal and migh I add Left thinking Educators. It is no wonder we have the government we have today.
