The real tell tale numbers about the networks would be what was the percentage of homes who watched the network evening newscast say, 20 or 30 years ago & compair it to today’s percentage. It would be way lower, & it’s going to keep going down.

FoxNews is pushing network numbers, but I think that has says as much about how bad the networks have become. Fox is excelent, but their compitition sucks, BIG TIME.

America is going down the proverbial drain because of people like Beck, Rush, Olberman and Madcow, and the idiots who believe what they say because they are too stupid to do some research of the facts and look at all sides of the equation. They are out to get rich spewing there very seldom, if ever, fact based ridicule. We need a moderate third party, not now, but yesterday. Wake up people, neither one of these parties as a whole, cares about us. The human brain: It may not technically be a muscle, but try working it out once in a while. Not just your ears(listening to morons like Beck) and then your mouth(repeating word for word the often fiction based garbage that your ears just heard). Here is my personal, I’ll report, you decide. The one fact that I see, (minus Clinton and Gingrich years), is that both parties are more than happy to borrow our childrens future into oblivion in order to stay in power, rather than do the right thing. Freeze or cut spending, and raises taxes by a percentage point or 2.

This guy, supermc sees it as a contradiction that a work of art can be communist and fascist at the same time. I guess Beck would have to talk down to him to explain that. But perhaps he should try reading a few books on the subject. Yes, prior to Beck, it may have been a contradiction. But Beck explains that the Right and the Left are two sides of the same coin, Big Controlling Government. supermc, pay attention.

Can you be more specific? What is your definition of “civil rights”? How has Beck shorted yours or others so called “civil rights”? I defy you to give a solid response. If your definition of civil rights is to have free stuff given to you by big daddy gov., just remember, someone had to pay into the system so you could get your so called “civil rights”. Have you ever thought about their civil rights or are you just another one of the Lady Gaga generation that thinks you and others in your ilk deserve stuff that others have worked for?Eventually the me generation that you live in will collapse under it’s own massive weight of the sniveling, whiny, latch key kids it is full of.It’s a joke how all your group has is to drop back to racism and blame the corporate world for your laziness and jealousy.It’s losing it’s effect quickly

Would you explain to me why Martin Luther King’s niece has been on his show at least twice (that I’ve seen) and why she loves Glenn Beck and supports what he does? Currently, she is some sort of civil rights activist working with some church groups or something. She didn’t get into what she does, but why she believes MLK wasn’t a Marxist as some current historical revisionists are claiming. That’s one thing she talked about when she was last on Beck’s show about 3 weeks ago. If you missed her, don’t worry. She will be with Beck again at the Lincoln Memorial on August 28, 2010.

All I can say is Glen’s personal life dont matter to me nor concern me. I watch Glen Beck yet I used to try to stomach Madcows show to see if I could get the other points of view. It seems lately when I watch MSNBC I dont get left side thoughts any more all I see on there is where they make fun of FOX channel. Madcow used to be the only show I could take on MSNBC as she seemed to be the one who didnt dis other stations. Now it seems she likes to just down anyone that dont agree with her like Blubberman and Chris (I got a tingle up my leg). What we need is a REAL news station that reports REAL news and whats REALLY going on instead of spewing hate against another station or people with other thoughts and ideas. I guess I watch Glen Beck so I can at least get ideas of where to start researching and looking for the truth on the net because God knows we are not going to get all sides fair on any station. I still like FOX news more then the others because they will report REAL news and I dont see much bashing the other station people as the others do. THATS what loses me. I hate people like MADCOW that bashed the tea parties just because she didnt agree with them and BLUBBERMAN AND CHRIS I got a tingle up my leg do. I guess their viewers are losing interest so all they have left it to name call.

And on top of that he LIES like really just flat out LIE to the people, the reason that fox news (the shows like hannity/beck/o’reilly on fox) get bash so much on fox is only because they make up facts, contradict themselves and dont present evidence to support their facts. You can find many videos on youtube of these shows telling lies, you cant find none for MSNBC show because they actually try to know what… present the truth.

The thing about Beck is he makes learning fun. And he knows how to teach. He has all the facts and models the concept right before your eyes, using real things, like magnetic pictures, drawings, piles of money, or whatever he needs to model what he’s talking about. Teachers everywhere should learn from Beck. On the other hand, I was watching Rachel Maddow talking about economics, and she wrapped up her story with a “and Macro Economic Theory” or something like that, then gave a smug look at the camera, nodding, as if the viewers were expected to dig into their memory banks about macro-economic theory and come to her conclusion (I don’t recall what about economics she was talking about, something having to do with the debt and health care or something). I guess, if you didn’t get her point, then you are not smart enough to watch her show. Or more likely, the people who watch her show didn’t get the point either, but it doesn’t matter, because they think their thinking is on the right side of history.

Anyway, Beck’s a genius. Teachers should watch and learn.

Let your mind be loosed as much as you want. Just keep your greedy hands off my hard earned money. Using the gov as a means of theft to support idleness is not a matter of free thinking. It’s theft, plain and simple bro.

Liberalism is nothing more than a doctrine as well. It’s really simple if you want to break it down to simple economics. You don’t work, you don’t eat. You choose to stay uneducated and sit at home , drink malt liqiour and play video games on your welfare check purchased plasma screen, don’t start shouting “free the mind” if you expect someone else to pay for your slothfulness.

What’s funny is that I am not a liberal- well those who replied probably think anyone with an decent education would be liberal, but not in the sense that normal people would think. I actually hate most of these stupid cable shows and am well aware of the fact they are not the news and more or less a soap box for some agenda. Olberman, Maddow, O’Reilly, Beck, and Hannity are all the same (expect for the Daily Show). I think most people realize this. They are funny to watch, Beck especially. I just keep hoping he starts crying every show. Aren’t lib’s supposed to be the wimps???
K1000- I have no problem not instituting these social programs that “Using the gov as a means of theft”. Such as the purely socialist programs as Social Security & Medicare/Medicaid. These programs are completely run by government taxes. I will never need these programs and am in the tax bracket that gets hit with the most taxes.
You must also realize that these were programs installed by liberals and strongly opposed by their conservative counterparts.
So no government supported healthcare for anyone and a purely capitalistic society sounds great. Let’s do it!

Liberals with “decent” educations are usually majored in the “liberal” arts. As a degreed engineer, I am biased toward the applied sciences. This is where the real works gets done. Interpreting poetry aint my thing! Sorry you liberal artsy types. I would wager that a majority in the applied sciences are conservative whether they know it or not. I owe my livelyhood to God and the automotive segment from which I have worked. Now I am in aerospace until the Libs accomplish their goal of completely killing manufacturing in this Country.

Wow- You really do try to put everyone into a single category, guess that makes it less difficult to understand.
By the way Liberals are the ones keeping manufacturing jobs in America. Capitalism does not try to “save” jobs. It will seek the least expensive labor to maintain an acceptable level of quality. The American automobile industry has used such protectionism at it’s own peril. This is one of the many reasons it needed government assistance over the years. The American government should have never intervened in 70’s with Lee Iacocca or present day. I think it is funny that liberal unions and politicians are the ones that have kept it alive and yet this is who insult. You may have been better served to take some basic economic classes in addition to the engineering classes.
By the way:
The first three engineer friends that I know just off the top of my head are all liberals.

Making elitist jabs with your proverbial pinky in the air proves nothing. The “taa taa” tone just shows hypocrocy. You can make any claim about “the engineers” you know”. Over the last two decades, I have worked with more people that call themselves engineers than those that have the true credentials to make that claim. Companies hire these so called “engineers” everyday and slap that label on them. I have only worked with one or maybe two individuals that could actually solve a simple binomial equation, much less integral calc. of diffy q. Liberals give lip service to keeping jobs in America as long as it is favorable to get elected,but then strongly support the unions who have no desire to produce efficiently with quality. I have witnessed it first hand. Union engine assemblers watching portable TV while torquing down fasteners without looking. Feet propped up on a leather recliner in front of a 500ton press. Sleeping with the press running when I went by. Many other examples. This is who the Liberals support.
In theory, the global free trade idea works, all things being equal. Nothing you say about free true trade in untrue, but the US society had better be ready to downscale our current standard of living if we choose to play ball with communists societies like China and Russia. Their goverments will ensure that wages are controlled to maintain power. This will be the regulator for our wages. One way we could help equalize is to drop our indutrial environmental controls to keep the field level with say China. Probably not an option at this point.
I get crap parts shipped to me weekly from China but “capatilist” ,i.e. get it as cheap as possible is the driving force. Quality suffers, but the powers that be still are willing to accept inferior quality when compared to paying a union working to provide the same. It’s just expected that ,you guessed it, the engineers will “fix” it. Demming showed this a bad policy.
Global capatilism can only work if worldly philosophy is 100% or maybe even 85%+ capatilistic in thought and deed. Maybe those liberal “engineer” friends of yours should take a refresher in economics.

Yep Unions is what drove Auto industry to the dirt. Their demands for higher pay, More and More health coverage ect… Unions bleed a company dry and then stand up and demand more till they smother it to death! Whats scary now is Obama and his lefties want to make TSA Union. That will make for great security wont it. A great pay off to the Unions for helping get Ohcrapa in office…. Thats going to be Security you can believe in too right?

“Capitalism does not try to “save” jobs. It will seek the least expensive labor to maintain an acceptable level of quality. The American automobile industry has used such protectionism at it’s own peril.”

Not true at all

“I think it is funny that liberal unions and politicians are the ones that have kept it alive and yet this is who insult.”

Do you mean killed the industry?

You may have been better served to take some basic economic classes in addition to the engineering classes.

I have taken economic, finance and accounting classes and you are wrong. More lib misleading

Chicago Joe needs to watch or listen to Beck more before he jumps him. It’s not so much Glenn telling it like it is, but he plays the video/audio of the person in their own words. They tell it like it is, Beck just presents it.

We have some nice parting gifts for you, thanks for playing.

I think you forget people with self educated are normally smarter than the people the go to school. They can think out side of the box. My father is one of the smart people I know and no college just a GED. I know many people that are brilliant. I guess you forgot about Bill Gates. He is great example. Many of the small business in this country are owned by people with no college education just a passion.

I have job that I am the only person in my department that does not have degree. Guess what I know more than them. I research, read, ask questions and trial by error. You need to look around you. Most of my friends are millionaires and they don’t have a college degree. Think long and hard before you answer.

This guy either hasn’t a brain, or dutifully obeys what the folks at msnbc tell him to do. Glenn Beck puts together more facts into a coherent picture than all other TV commentators combined. I suggest Chicago Joe actually watch the show and try to follow along with admittedly, may be a very feeble mind.

Glenn Beck … I find him intriguing…I read his book and I enjoyed it…I started watching him on Headline news…… but he seems to steal a lot of his material from Michael Savage….the reason savage calls him the hemorroid with ears….

When I dont catch savage on the radio I know I can turn in the next day or a few days later to beck and get the same story….

One good thing is Beck gets this stuff out to a different audience than savage does …. but the more it gets out there…the better we all are….

Michael Savage is great. It’s too bad he has to spend so much time on this UK thing, but it’s because conservatives who supposedly believe in free speech have not come to his defense, and most top conservative media outlets have not even mentioned it. Fox News should be all over this story. Rush, Sean, O’Reilly and the rest have whimped out on the story because Savage has trash-talked them in the past. But hell, I thought we believed in free speech for all. Given how little these hosts seem to believe in free speech for all, Savage may have been right to attack them in the past.

If the U.K. banned Keith Olbermann, Rachel Maddow or a hater of their ilk, I’d be pissed about that as well. Free speech is free speech.

First they came for Savage….

I respectfully disagree, jasonwedge. I think Beck cares less for the ratings verses giving a much needed voice to many Americans who are increasingly concerned about the direction of the government. A direction that started long before Obama was set in stone pretty solidly by GW Bush. We are now being marched “Bataan” style, forced to trample over the Constitution with blinding speed toward a full fledged socialist/facist state. (and yes, I know the definition of each – just because elements of one ideology are in place doesn’t exclude the other from also being implemented.)

I didn’t mean to imply that I don’t sympathize with Savage’s case. I do. I’m just not interested in hearing the same story every day. There’s a lot to Beck’s show (tv and radio) that I haven’t seen elsewhere. I don’t really think it’s fair to say that his career has been based on stealing ideas from others and passing them off as his own. The 912 project is a good example of that. (If he’s stolen that from someone else it would be news to me.)

I follow Glenn Beck and Michael Savage religiously. I have read most the books from both these fine Gentleman. I do not believe that Glenn is “stealing” from Savage or Vice Versa. At times they do cover the same things but most of the time they are talking about different subjects and have different points of view. I believe both are great at digging into the grim of politics and finding the hidden agendas that the Government are trying to conceal

When Beck was on CNN he did a story on the Antichrist with John Hagee.

He had a list of the similarities between the Antichrist and Islam’s Mahdi.

I gave him that list and gave him the source from where I got it.

On TV he said his researchers put together the list.

So I think he might be “borrowing” things from other people without attribution. This is a flaw that I just have to forgive him about.

If you want to listen online to Beck’s radio show (which i honestly find more entertaining than his tv show. The producers are really amusing guys) try http://www.winkwnog.com/listen_live.php. It’s a station based in Florida. The woman that does the show before his (Mandy Connel I think. A local show) is a good listen too.
Savage isn’t on during my normal drive-time, but I might just make an effort to listen more.
Aside from personality, or who steals what from who, what I really like about Beck is that he makes me want to look for myself and not trust something just because I’ve heard it. His show re-awakens my patriotic, self evaluating, and crititcal thinking sides.
I agree with you on the others. I do like Rush more than I used to. I think his pompous attitude is offered with a rather large grain of salt, and is intended to be so. I really don’t care much for Hannity. I’ll listen once in a while, but more often than not he’s a bully to the people he has on and can be rather rude and insulting. When he demands that a guest answer a question, usually interrupting them to do so, it reminds me of continually pulling your car ahead a few feet while a friend is waiting to get in the passenger side.

You’re absolutely right. I cannot take Hannity. He’s does not know how to have a conversation, and simply talks over everyone. He loves the sound of his own voice. You nailed it on Rush. He acts pompous, but I think it’s more of an act. And his show is much, much better now than it was for years. The pomposity I can’t stand is Bill O’Reilly’s. His self-love is just too much for me to watch. Him and his fawning guests like Dick Morris.

I don’t like O’Reilly and Hannity mainly because, although the viewpoints they espouse are generally correct in my view, they themselves are 2 dimensional monkeys in suits. BUT – I have to give Hannity big props for the hard work he does for vets and others with his Freedom concerts (then again he has to go and mess them up with his rendition of The Devil Went Down to Georgia!).

Beck, Savage and Levin get my vote; and lest you think they tell me how to think, I listen to them because they echo my thoughts and feelings on the issues. I also watch CNN and MSNBC though – even though I’ve smashed three TV’s now in frustration (LOL).

Its amazing to me that you think that because a few of you don’t like the Fox guys, that the rest of the country agrees with you. First of all, have you seen the ratings. Oreally, Beck, and Hanity have the top spots in this country. You keep believing the people on MSNBC and when you relize how much they destort the truth, lets see if you are man enough to addmit you were taken for the liberal ride of lies. And by the way, if you worked for a living instead of taking the free to you government handouts of my hard earned money, maybe you would see things differently. The Robinhood way of the Dems. is wearing thin. I should just quit my job and live on what I worked hard for all my 50 yrs , that way maybe without me working and paying for those who don’t want to work, the well will run dry. I don’t know why you think you should have all the wonderful things I have.

I believe that it must be impossible to be a top rated cable host without a stupendous amount of narcissism. These people literally bath in self glory. O’reilly’s love of self grows on a daily basis. But has anyone noticed that when ever the subject turns to matters of economics HE GETS EVERYTHING WRONG.? I wish O’reilly would take some business courses at a local Jr. college or spend 6 months working as a stockbroker or just buy a gas station for a couple of weeks. And I am sick of listening to Savage whine about his lack of support from other talkers when he lambasts them with filthy names. Duh.

It’s good that Beck is shaking things up a little bit over there at FOX, I’m often put off by the O’Reilly swagger (its only entertaining if you are William Shatner and get the joke) and Hannity seems like a good guy . . . but it is so painful to watch him struggle with even the simplest of concepts whenever he has to go off the talking points.

“remember according to the guy on MSNBC…socialism is the new N word…i can’t beleive how the race card now gets played….its amazing….”

Socialism is not the new ‘N’ word, it is the old ‘S’ word . . . slavery.

I agree, Geraldo is the balance part. If it were left up to him, anyone from any country could come here to America and live off the hard working people. Non of them want to pay taxes. If they have a business, they deal only in cash. That way they can keep their hard earned money and then jump on our welfare system and get food stamps and suck the life out of every worker in this country. If they want to come to this country, they should have to serve in our military for four years first.

Geraldo is a bleeding heart too much for my tastes, but he is more rational then most libs. He is smart enough to call scumbag criminals what they are, & does’nt care if they are exicuted. Most libs go nuts over the death penalty. Geraldo is a legit journalist, with a legal backround, & he will state his case, & the fact that FoxNews lets him do so is a good thing. If you saw the slugfest he had with O’Reilly about illegal imigration, you know what I mean. They went at it, finished a bit early, & laughed about how hot it got. I don’t agree with Geraldo all of the time, but I like what he brings to the table, & I think that Fox has a guy who will swim upsteam makes them what they have become. Unlike BSNBC or CNN, all in lock step, it’s like watching the North Koean military march by their leader Kim Jong Il.

With out socialism idea we would not have had the new deal with stop the great depression and brought us back to the great country we are, hover conservative ideas wanted to let the market fix it self which would have cause the depression to continue into WWII where then we could have most likely been unable to defeat the NAZI and set our place as world dominance. SOCIALISM IDEAS GAVE US THE POLICE FORCE, FIRE DEPARTMENT, AND OUR MILITARY. While conservative ideas will want private companies to run these operation like the private military company BLACKWATER who dont follow under no nation guide line and look how well that turn out. Now why do we allow our nation to mandatory provide protection of our life and property but not our health. Maybe because followers of beck still dont understand but instead drop words like the know the true meaning

Go beyond the spell checker and try out the grammer function. It works too if you have the capacity to understand what it is trying to tell you.
Also, you have to be alert to the spell checker. It will not tell you where you are being really stupid such as when using comments like “so to avoid single mined folks”. Said this way, it is easy for me to think that you mean people who were planted with a single mine. That statement makes no sense. I think of mining as something you might do when you want to sink a ship or blow up the enemy on the battlefield.

If you have a gpa of 3.85, then your own words testify to the greatly reduced standards in our social education system. Wow!

I base my principles on what has worked for me and you are going to have a hard time convincing me otherwise. You set there with allusions of grandeur about your future life as a pharmacist.

”conservative principles” you name is the basic principle of a real man bro. And yes I cant wait to finish my education and become a pharmacist and I will have no problem to pay taxes that would go to help provide jobs and programs that would better my NATION that I really love. I be making 100000, take away 10000 and that leave me with 90000 more then enough for me. This my point as a nation shouldnt you want to give back so the government could help provide for the unhealthy or unwealthy, your fellow citizens. These government aid program help me get this opportunity. Yes you could say im from the ghetto where selling drugs or playing sports was the only thing expected from a kid growing up. I didn’t know my father, I only had my mother who work her way from WELFALL, off SECTION 8 and into a better house. And really only because of her that I have the chance to become a pharmacist. But with out those programs to help GUIDE AMERICANS, not provide for them but just to add some type of hope that you can really reach your happiness, but until then the rich will remain rich while the poor remain poor. So yes I will pay my taxes, and hopefully the government use some of the money to provide after school programs for kids who didn’t have a mother like myself.

Obviously you do not understand the cost of all those social programs. The government will throw you in jail if you only pay $10,000 on a salary of $100,000. What planet do you live on?Have you ever had to pay taxes before? Your tax burden will be over 30% for just the federal side. FICA, social security, etc. That’s just the federal tax. You have state taxes on top of that. God help you if you live in New York or California. The more you make, the more percentage you are taxed. That’s what you progressives are pushing. The progressives will not stop at current rates either. Expect them to push for more tax percentage from you. Get used to feeling the effect of your own politics. When you make $100,000, you will be lumped into the catagory of the “evil capitalist”.

Strange as it may seem, there is no universal clear definition of Fascism. A fasci was an Italian night stick carried by Moussolini’s goons.That is a pretty good indication of what the word should mean right there. The left has always turned things around backward. Remember the” Peoples Republic” of the Soviets? There was no republic and it had nothing to do with the people except to screw them.

Without Fox News, we would be in a world of hurt (even more than we are now) because they have told the truth of whats going on. They comment and back it up with facts and backgrounds of these people running our government. The corruption is rampant. And yes it not just the Democrats but they make up more than their fair share of it. When you start converting our Republic into a soft tyranny the true middle class, who pay taxes, will revolt. Obama has done one thing so far. He has divided this Country more than any other President in recent history.

They comment and back it up with facts and backgrounds of these people running our government. The corruption is rampant. And yes it not just the Democrats but they make up more than their fair share of it. When you start converting our Republic into a soft tyranny the true middle class, who pay taxes, will revolt. Obama has done one thing so far. He has divided this Country more than any other President in recent history. When its all said and done, the way Obama’s poll numbers are dropping the only support he will have in 6 months will be the small group of radical leftist, in which it appears he identifies with anyway. The rest of us poor peasants will be looking around and saying..WOW!! whered our country go?, and what have we done putting him office…well I won’t say that because I didn’t vote for him and feel sorry for those people who are so ill informed about what he is. They are the one’s who we will blame for all this.

Stella,

You are right. We did lose “this” time. Time being the great equalizer will prove that anti-capatilist, non-productive, socialist ideals of the left are as “anti-american” as you can get!
For the time being, I shall keep my guns as a defense against the likes of yourself and others who would love to justify taking property from those who have earned it and use it to satisfy your own greed. I will also pledge once again to use my education to be as productive as I can to support the capatilist, free ideals of the USA as she has existed historically. Thanks for the stupid comments. It only works to re-temper the resolve of the conservatives. At least for now, I am not going to “LEAE” the country.

Detractors of Glenn Beck often site arguments like “less then one present of Americans watch him” or “he is looseing advertisers left and right” (should it be the goal of the media to apease corporate sponcers? Well if your the MSM… but I digress). And of course the non stop personal attacks and insults. 

The fact Glenn’s detractors cannot disprove his facts or how he strings together his facts to show the hidden Progressive agenda is the REAL STORY. 

The Progressive Agenda, if left unchecked, will fundamentaly transform our country into something the vast majority of Americans would NEVER allow if it were presented openly. THIS IS WHY BECK RESONATES with so many Americans. For every American who watches his show there are 5 others, who through association, open their eyes to BHO’s hidden progressive agenda. 

And to all you Progressives who thought you could pull the wool over the rest of our eyes- if you think it’s loud now just wait untill 2010 and 2012. As the old shampoo commercial used to say, “they told two friends and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on”.

It appears that all of the hate is actually coming from the so called, “conservatives”. Every time our current administration tries to better the situation in our country, the conservatives cry and whine about something-more like, lie about something. I am a white middle ages white woman from Wyoming, and I can’t stand beck and his lies, fox and the lies, the people that are trying to repair and fix this country from the past 8 years of corruption and lies from the bush/cheney machine. If these so called christians would read their Bible, they would see who on God’s side. God Bless America-my mother was an immigrant from England, I’m white, Christian, and I rebuke the republicans of this day. I bet God wishes they would get brains.

This country was going in the tank and bush couldn’t even begin to try to fix it. He asked President Obama to step in before he was even inaugurated. The economy is now on the right track, thanks to all that our President did to prevent a total economic meltdown. I have relatives around the world in Canada and England and Europe, and all of those countries are happy for us to finally get a president with some brains in office.

God Bless the U.S.

Beck is a Nazi
Beck is a skinhead
Beck is off his bed, on drugs, and lies… And, what does that say about all of you looneys that listen to him. It says that you too, are off of your rocker. Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, how’s that for your Fox lies, I mean, Machelvelian tactics…

Obama’s words ring hollow, his deeds are: caucus fixing, FISA vote, book deal before taking oath of office, Black Panthers voter intimidation, ACORN, Rezko (still awaiting sentencing?!?), treasury raiding tax cheats, etc., etc… I’ve been inspired to sacrifice by Jesus, Ghandi, King; but not by a schmoozing, network ass kisser who’s never done a damn thing. Anything you contribute to Obama’s “just” cause will end up in his and his friends pockets — just like Bush. The govt. already extorts almost 50% of our labor for protection and tribute. They have borrowed, printed, and spent your grandchildren into slavery. They pass secret laws in the middle of the night making it illegal for you to expose them. And if that wasn’t enough, they blatantly lie on TV everyday as if we were fools to be fleeced. Beck is right: send tha bastards packing.

Everything Beck says is backed up by facts of which you can find if you look. The Democrats have all the power so no matter what Beck or Limbaugh or anyone says they can do what they want. The question you need to ask is why is Obama going back on all those promises he made during the election. What is stopping them, not the Republicans, they are left out of all the decisions.

BathTubBoy does not have high ratings, but what ratings he has are due to Beck & O’Reilly rants. Also, Bachmann & Palin have replaced Bush & Cheney. But Olby has very poor ratings, particularly when you look at his number vs his actual compitition, which he never beats.

He may be the highest rated host on BSNBC, but that is like being the greatest ice hockey player from Kenya. BTW, same goes for the highest rated liberal radio host, Special Ed Schultz. You might be the #1 lib on radio, but that ain’t exactly a big deal.

face it obama is a marxist, fascist,maoist, communist piece of shit hell bent on the destruction of our constitutional and capitalist way of life that was put in place by the founders. If he persists he will preside over the bloodiest period in American history. Americans are not down with Marxism and will not go into the night quietly. He is not trying to help anyone exept his leftist friends, the entire stimulus package was designed to fund his marxist friends and appointees. Glenn Beck is the only one on the tv that has the balls to point out what is becoming obvious to anyone that can read and has ears to hear and eyes to see. He is telling the truth. Everyone else just prattles on about giving obamo a chance, that would be the equivelent of waiting to see if hitler wanted to kill all the jews as opposed to most of them. Socialism Kills., Oppose it to your last breath. Beware of the democratic revelution, it appears dressed in free shit bought with the sweat and blood of others and when given power it brings destruction of liberty, prosperity, happiness, self determination, and cannot be removed because it always seeks to strip that power from the people, no freedom of speech or ownership of weapons and persecution of dissent. We stand on the brink of a thousand years of darkness if we do not resist these usurping assholes.

truth
Just this one paragraph of yours needs more than 27 amendments to make sense.

Just for a little education: The original draft of the constitution WAS right. It did NOT condone slavery nor did it reduce women to a lower class. I challange you to show us where in the original document it states that these were condoned. Look up “condone” in the dictionary if you don’t know what it means. You are confusing “amendment” with “revision”. The 13th amendment was added against the will of some on both the left and right in this country. The majority who resisted were by far from the left, yep Democrats. Look it up. Amendments are to further clarify and add to, via written law, things that were not discussed in the orignal document. A revision would be needed if the original Constitution allowed slavery. That’s the difference. The reality is we would not need amendments if it weren’t for airheads like yourself and your so called progressive brothers who always need the law to guide your every step. It’s usually the left who has to have it hammered on their forheads to remember the right thing to do.

You folks on the left are always trying to rewrite history to fit your own distorted view of life.

I don’t know why I waste my time. It’s like trying to discuss supersymetry with a chicken!

K1000 no, no, no, you just prove that you do not have a brain or any sense of knowledge, but its ok because I will share some knowledge for your mind. The constitution was not the first document created by our founders to manage this nation, no the Articles of Confederation was first drafted on November 1777 but it was so good that we kept it right, wrong! Our founders did a great job to help start this nation but they didn’t do every thing right and they had to learn and grow to become better and tried to do better for there nation. The articles of confederations were very weak with a weak base to stand on. The document follows the theory of small government to the extreme, which limited our government role to help guide this nation. Lets see, it kind of sound like that is what you and conservatives really want, damn well it didn’t work then so why should it work now. So ten years later in 1787, the very same founders fix the problem by creating the constitution of the United States. This was an act of progression BROTHER, wow the left want to learn and become more advance to provide a better future which is so scary. Now in the declaration of independence, Thomas Jefferson said that every man was created equally but he sign that document and went home to run his slaves. Now the original draft did not condone slavery but did it outlaw it, HELL NO. So you are wrong again ass, amendments are use to both “revise” and “amendment” the constitution. The eighteenth amendment was created to alter, revise, change, what ever your want to call it, the present of alcohol in our nation. Amendment 18th prohibited the manufacturing, importing, and exporting of alcoholic beverages. So you are telling me that this amendment was use to further clarify the law that already existed in the original document, it was a new law added to the constitution to fix the original document because it was something that was broke. But they really got it right when they repeal the 18th amendment with 21st amendment 14 years later. And yes dumb ass African American supported the republican party over the left because they supported the abolition of slavery but we didn’t like there ideas. So we went back and forth between the two until the 1960s when the republican party didn’t show support for the civil rights bill, that is when we went to the democratic party and never look back.

K1000 I was hoping that you could show me an intelligent side of why the right thinks the way they do but there is really no reason. You and any other crazy right side thinkers, just don’t want advance pass your old ways

Go read a book, learn grow, try to understand things that your weak stupid mind cant. Then maybe just maybe you could be on my level but even then I have move on damn you a dumb ass

Fox has destroyed the competition for ONE reason. If you get out of the big cities in America (which are deteriorating because of the Democratic policies for decades), you instantly see how America feels. Most do not trust this President and his Administration because of his “Progressive” policies which were not “mostly” visible during the campaigns before the election. Look at the states that are failing. Look at the thousands of schools that are failing. Why? The teachers unions have completely failed our children. It will take years to rebuild what they have destroyed. What does the Obama Administration want to do? Make the unions stronger. California is a complete disaster and could cause horrible consequences for our economy. What does everyone think is going to happen when 30 states go bankrupt? Does everyone understand what that means? Our country is in deep trouble and I won’t sugar coat it for you, things may never be the same because of both the Democrats and Republicans failing the people by saving Wall Street. Does everyone realize that Wall Street is trading with borrowed money? Our country is broke and soon China will stop buying our Treasury bills. Both of our worthless parties keep telling the American people that it is protectionism to not have the international trade laws and deals we have. These globalists’ are destroying our country. It is the biggest lie ever formulated in politics. Do you know what the Chinese businessmen think about that? Off the record, they say that are politicians are the dumbest &OB’s they have ever seen. Off the record, they laugh at our politicians. They send us poisonous everything and they buy nothing from us. Then they steal our defense and patent secrets and our leaders make a comment and the dismiss it the next day. How long can this go on before we are so weakened that it will affect our national defense? If the government has no money coming in- soon the gravy train is over, not just for the average guy & gal but also for our elderly, children, disabled, …….etc. Donald Trump was on MSNBS this morning and this is what they were talking about. I don’t care which party Donald belongs to, what does matter is that he is a business man. As a business man he knows what is wrong or right for business. And businesses are companies who hire you and me. Like he said, the Chinese are laughing at us, as they take our money everyday. Wake up America. It’s very simple. If we don’t make (manufacture) anything here in America, no matter what anyone tells you (weather it is the most radical far-right Republican or the most radical far-left Democrat), then there will never be any hi-paying jobs again. Remember, this not a party issue. Demand of your politicians to change the trade laws and let’s kick the globalist’s out of our Congress. By the way, we don’t have long to fix this.

That data’s a year old. And it sure doesn’t show any “skyrocketing.”

Here are the Glenn Beck’s ratings for every Monday over the last threemonths:
2/01/10 – 3.068 million
2/08/10 – 2.858 million
2/15/10 – 2.790 million
2/22/10 – 2.725 million
3/01/10 – 2.782 million
3/08/10 – 2.775 million
3/15/10 – 2.361 million
3/22/10 – 3.446 million
3/29/10 – 2.155 million
4/05/10 – 2.229 million
4/12/10 – 2.009 million
4/19/10 – 2.032 million

Glenn Beck’s ratings have been going down over the past several months. That’s hardly skyrocketing.

So typical of the naysayers to grab a data point and say See, See, I told you so, nanny nanny poo poo!! Think global warming moron.

We already know what to do come November, so my bet is the “ignorant masses” the the media likes to portray us as will be back with an answer at the polls. Whether or not Beck increases or decreases viewer numbers is irrelevant now. There are enough that have made themselves known or who are staying quetly on the sidelines until the time comes to kick out arrogant representatives and put the smackdown against the will of the elitist media.

As with Bunning, they are now going after Coburn. What he is saying is what is right. He agrees need to do something with these benefits. He directly asked Max Baucus and Debbie Stabenow (sp) of Michigan if this bill they now want was paid for. They both acknowledged no and couldn’t pay for it. They insist this is an emergency and want to waive the “Pay Go” legislation Dem’s just passed and celebrated at a party they held for themselves for this Pay Go.

Following is a list of the things they say can’t be cut to pay for this “emergency” of unemployment benefits.

1. $107,000 for study of the sex life of the japanese quail
2. $1.2 mill for the study of the breeding habits of the woodchuck
3. $150,000.00 to study the Hatfield – McCoy feud
4. $84.000 to find out why people fall in love
5. $1 million to study why people don’t ride bikes to work
6. $1.9 million to study gas emissions from cow flatulence
5. $144,000 to see if pigeons follow human economics laws
6. Funds to study the cause of rudeness on tennis courts and examine smiling habits in bowling alleys
7. $219,000 to teach college students how to watch television
9. 2 Million to construct an ancient Hawaiian canoe
10. 20 million for a demonstration project to build wooden bridges
11. $160,000 to study if you can hex an opponent by drawing an X on their chest
12. $800,000 for a restroom on Mt. McKinley
13. $100,000 to study how to avoid falling spacecraft
14. $16000.00 to study the operation of the komung a Korean stringed instrument
15. $1 million to preserve a sewer in Trenton NJ as an historic monument
16. $6,000 for a document on worcestershire sauce
17. $10,000.00 to study naval communications on a bulls potency
18. $100,000 to study soybean-based ink
19. $1 million for Seafood consumer center

You know, I liked Olberman a lot better when he was on ESPN.

Beck is still on, even though some wimpy companies choose not to run commercials on his show because progressives say they’ll boycott their goods. But FOX plays him anyway, some say (people who probably don’t really know, like left wing “news” organizatons) that FOX is taking a loss. But that’s the value of wealth. You can afford to take a hit for the public good. Thank you FOX, for sticking with Glenn Beck. Where would this country be without FOX? Ignorant of any truth. FOX has made errors in the past, like, it seems, they doctored some picutres of the New York Times editor to make him look unshaven and scraggly. That was wrong. But so was MSNBC when they showed a Tea Partier with an M15 slung over his back while commentating (and I paraphrase) “These Tea Partiers are gun toting racists.” Well, Fox played the whole video, and it zoomed out to show that guy was an African American Tea Pariter. They just played the closeup of the gun on MSNBC. We know, from doing the reading, that the real racists and race baters are the Progressives. Sanger, for example, wanted to wipe out blacks in the civilized world. And Wilson segregated the federal government. And the list, and the beat, goes on …

Funny, Hillary Clinton said she was a progressive in the style of the early 1900s in one of her debates. That’s funny, cuz that’s when the Progressives were the most blatantly racist.
