…but at least the posters in this thread in support of Beck have posted ACTUAL reports rather than resort to playground insults and blanket statements without actually adding any substance to these claims…apparently thinking IS hard for you.

Point is, if you’re gonna try to flame something/someone how about you lay down a fact or two rather than your own bullshit opinion … you represent an ideal (liberal … I get it) but you’re representing it quite poorly. So, how about you give me a reason WHY Beck’s an idiot and maybe provide 3 or more references to back it up … otherwise you just look like a buffoon.

But Polo, Beck misspelled a word. How much more of a silly conservative can you be? Besides, you misunderstand their concept of thinking. When you believe yourself to be part of a socialist collective, thinking can be done by others in the collective and just bottle feed to you.

This isn’t just for you Ryan: I don’t have a problem with you guys that don’t like Beck. What I don’t understand is if he’s an idiot and a liar why don’t you come with some actual FACTS and prove he’s wrong and an idiot instead of just calling him names. It’s no secret that I don’t like Obama but when I explain why I don’t like him I explain why by using things he’s said and done in his past that I don’t agree with. Why don’t you???

Ok here’s a video from a safer site. Keith Olbermann Destroys "Idiot" Glenn Beck (VIDEO) | HuffPost Latest News
The sad thing is Olbermann is calling Glenn a liar, just an uneducated dolt who doesnt rehearse. When I see stuff like this I really start to think that the media and the White House are in bed together to fool you into thinking that Barry O. is our savior.

Tha was vfucking good , i don’t watch Olberman , maybe I should

Can you type one single post without making a spelling or grammatical mistake?

You sound like you got hit in the head with a shovel.[/quote]

Because such rational thinking is beyond the socialist.

It is easy as hell to call names, but when you question why, suddenly the sound of crickets fills the room. You can tell by how many lefties are mad that Van Jones is gone, particularly Howard Dean, and yet fail to recognize the evidence provided to support the Conservative views. Oh those crazy Republicans, they are bitching now that the Manufacturing Czar is a union guy, and how dare the unions cheer for such an appointment. Yet the Auto Industry in Detroit is union run, and BROKE. Anyone else bothered by this?

Good question. In the end it does not matter. After all, the terms liberal and conservative are just generalities. Individual beliefs vary widely within these discriptives. I can respect any man (or woman) who has their own beliefs and can support them with substantive fact.

I have liberal friends. I was once very liberal minded. I voted for Michael Dukakis and Bill Clinton the first time, but don’t tell anyone. Heck, I once believed in Santa Claus as well.

Time, education, and life experience changed my views. It may even be conceivable that I could be convinced back to the other side. Not likely, but not out of the question. However, I can assure you it won’t come by insults and condescending remarks with no reason and factual backup.

I didn’t want to hop on the “no facts with insults” train, but I thought this quote summed it up nicely.

I’ll BUY it. :slight_smile:

Um, there was a video that speaks for itself. I could go on about things like his segments, with footage of Nazi soldiers goose stepping across the public square, and images of Hitler and swastikas, and him droning on about “fascism,” “creeping socialism,” and whatever other bullshit evil-flavor-of-the-week pejoratives he uses, and how liberty is being ERODED, MY GOD! And then, at the end of the segment, he’ll be all “Now I’m not trying to compare the Obama administration to the Nazis, I’m just sayin’, you know?” Fucking idiot. Also, he’s totally nonpartisan, really, yeah.

He’s disingenuous, and as Olbermann points out, he’s not too bright either.

By the way, I’m not a liberal.

See my post to the other guy.

Basically, I’m done “explaining myself” to conservatives. It’s like trying to teach a dog calculus. And I don’t mean your average, run-of-the-mill dog. I mean a DUMB dog.

Why you dont show where the free market works for anyone except the wealthy? many of those who achieve are doing it off the backs of the working poor in this country. There’s millions of people busting there asses and living paycheck to paycheck without health care or any hope of retirement. Maybe you should show them a little appreciation for there sacrifice instead of calling them lazy asses, selfish ass.

Ok, you said there WAS a video. Was it on youtube or somthing? Personally I see alot of parallels between what Obama wants to do and what Hitler did do which include the take over of the banking industry, auto industry, health care, and gun control. Now I havent seen this video that you speak of but I’m open to watching it. I’m no expert on history but I know enough to know socialist policies when I see them. I also know enough to know that socialism hasn’t worked in any of the countries that its been tried in. As a matter of fact even socialist China’s economy is rockin right now because they have LESS taxes and government involvement in their free market. Maybe if we did the same unemployment would go down.

My dad came from a family up in north west Iowa, about 750 people in that town. My grandpa was a worker at a co-op never made more then 7.50 an hour. My dad became a doctor, Free market works.

Hell Michael Moore is making money through capitalism by making a movie that is bashing capitalism.

If you continue to engage in class warfare telling yourself you can never be as good as the one above you then you will always be where you are at. If you decide to grow up and take on the challenges the sky is the limit.

You a college kid? Probably. I’ve worked around the poor and there are only two reasons why poverty is sustained for a great period of time in a family unit. Stupid and lazy.

I’ve treated app. 1000 people or more on medicaid and they do not have their crap together. They are the exception, not the rule. Maybe 10 or so were actually useful citizens. Or about one every two years I’ve worked.
