Beck Donations Pay For Event First, Troops Second

How do we know this? The fine print buried at the bottom of the official Glenn Beck website:

"All contributions made to the Special Operations Warrior Foundation (SOWF) will first be applied to the costs of the Restoring Honor Rally taking place August 28, 2010. All contributions in excess of these costs will be retained by SOWF."

Suckers. Courtesy of Heather at C&L, here's Beck getting all weepy about a $600,000 donation which ostensibly would go to the troops, but actually will help pay for the concert.

All the donations go to stroke Beck's ego first, pay all the speakers like Palin, pay for the event, then the leftovers go to SOWF.

Ironic that the National Park Service rented them the land. Those evil progressives.

Why does it cost so much money to put on an event like that? Isn't "freedom" free?
