Glenn Beck delivered an unprecedented punch Saturday at his Restore Honor Rally. Watching on UStream Live, at times it seemed like I was at Church, hearing a homily about patriotism and the intertwining of God in the founding of America. Just like as it often happens in church, towards then end I am getting bored.
Flipping channels, I also saw Reverend Al Sharpton's Reclaim the Dream Rally. Clearly, Glenn Beck's Restore Honor Rally created much more fervor in the hearts of attendees with a much larger turnout.
Sharpton never really caught up, in as much as the mainstream media did it's best to discredit Beck and make it look like there was a larger turnout for Sharpton.
Reading other opinions and news on the events and I stumble into this photo from The New York Daily News,

Pretty neat photograph to illustrate just how small this frog is. Wait a minute, why is "In God We Trust," blurry? The top of Lincoln's head seems to be intact, but not the words.
The photo is credited to Indranil Das, an independent documentary photographer based in Kolkata, India. He travels widely to document the rich and wide variety of socio – political – economic scenarios prevailing in India. (

Perhaps Mr. Das is a non-believer in God. Does it matter if Das is a Hindu or a Baptist? A penny is a penny. A frog is a frog. Why take the effort to remove the words that are clearly there? In God We Trust. Is God taboo? Beck, Sharpton and others sure don't think so.
The Microhyla nepenthicola, is Asia's smallest frog. It is all rather ironic that an acronym for F.R.O.G. is, Finally Relying On God.
Beck is a Mormon, Sharpton is a Pentecostal/Baptist, and the jury still debates what President Obama's religion is. I don't know what religion Abe Lincoln was but, "Lincoln read the Bible regularly and was committed to God and morality throughout his life. Some historians call him a Deist," wrote

"Malia Obama, the 10-year-old daughter of President-elect Obama, plans to make herself right at home in the White House and has already called dibs on using Abraham Lincoln's desk for her homework.

http://www.americanrhetoric.com/speeches/mlkihaveadream.htmLet's hope the spirit of Abe Lincoln and Martin Luther King, and the words of Glenn Beck and Al Sharpton bring America together, in the name of God to do what is right, just and moral in this Republic. We are, one nation under God.
