thank's Montana, but don't worry, I got this one.
It's not that I'm offended in the slightest Mrs. L. It's just that you're not stating your beliefs so much as you're linking to a really awful idealogue pundit who talks out his ass. The moment I saw Glen Beck I knew it was going to be pompous douchebagery.
"I believe in Justice"? As opposed to people that don't believe in justice? No, this isn't a declaration that we need to do the right thing... it's a right wing "tough on crime" stance. The same kind of stance that leads to the U.S.'s insanely high prison rates... and crime rates.
There's nothing unifying and universally true about his "Principles". It's just his specific ideology wrapped up in the flag. And you should always be careful of something that needs to wrap itself in the flag, because it's probably pretty damn ugly naked.

Translation:
I'm not offended I just think the things you believe in are pompous douchebagery.
You're assuming that because they say they believe in something that your disagreement with them means you do not. By that logic anyone who voted against Obama was against "Hope"! Can you believe the pompous douchebagery of that guy? The nerve to imply that I don't believe in hope?
Words having meaning. Lack of words have implied meaning. One is justification for a reaction, the other is justification for requesting clarification.
