Sarah Palin will join Glenn Beck on August 28th in Washington, D.C. on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial for the Restoring Honor rally.

The mission of the rally is to recognize our First Amendment rights and honor the service members who fight to protect those freedoms.

Those attending will see a miniconcert by Jo Dee Messina, who won the CMA Horizon Award. Glenn Beck also mentions on his website that also lined up for the event are Gary Sinise, Marcus Luttrell, David Barton, Ted Nugent, and the largest collection of medal of honor winners that have ever been assembled.

“And to bring on the medal of honor winners, along with Gary Sinise, will be somebody that I selected… not for political reasons at all, but because I think she understands duty and honor, I think she understands…the first people that we have to point out before we go into the badge of merit are the people that have done remarkable things in wartime. She has a son who is serving currently. Sarah Palin will also be joining,” Beck announced on his radio show.

Palin appeared on the Glenn Beck show and thanked Beck for the invitation. “I think it’s going to be the most inspiring and for me personally the most humbling experience, could be of my lifetime, and I hope we have a million people there to honor our troops. I’m just so absolutely thrilled that you invited me and I wouldn’t miss it for the world,” Palin said.

You can also help raise funds for true American heroes by joining Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck for breakfast on August 28th before the rally.

All proceeds from this auction go to the Special Operations Warrior Foundation, a non-profit charity serving the children of our fallen heroes.

      Deborah,

      Lori got the lineup direct from the Restoring Honor website. If you click on "Read about who will join Glenn on stage here," it takes you to this page…

      where Glenn writes, "In the first 15 minutes of Restoring Honor, you will see these people on stage. Jo Dee Messina is going to be playing a miniconcert prior to. She won the CMA Horizon award, she's done, you know, her songs "I'm All Right, Bring on the Rain." She's a great lady, great performer. She's going to be opening up so as people are coming in to the Lincoln Memorial area, she will be performing. In the first 15 minutes of the program Gary Sinise will be joining, Marcus Luttrell will be on stage. We hope to have the largest collection of medal of honor winners that have ever been assembled. Ted Nugent will be there."

      Obviously it's subject to change, but it's still directed to that page from the main website.
