  • Americans Against Food Taxes

        I'll hafta [sic] reward those advetisers [sic] with my business!

        A better use of your money might be to pay for a remedial English tutor.

        But if you really think these companies should be rewarded, does that also mean that you think the 80+ companies that are boycotting Beck should, in turn, be boycotted by you? You'll have a fun time trying to do that, starting with Wal-mart.

      WSJ is Murdoch owned, so that is just advertising yourself. No problem with that, but you are not generating revenue.

      Most of Beck's audience are not capable of reading or comprehending publications like National Review or The Weekly Standard that contain so much grammar, syntax, sentence structure, and cohesive paragraphs, swill though they are as magazines.

        They are likely gullible enough to fall for the cash-for-gold scams. The latest issue of Consumer Reports had an article about these services. They found that the cash-for-gold companies paid 11 to 29 percent of market value, while pawn shops and jewelry stores paid 35 to 70 percent. Suckers.

      What happened to the media matters (for very little) clock? I know Rush keeps his algore end of the world prediction clock running, I would hope that georgy porgy soros could reach down into his deep currency manipulated pockets and pay the electric bill to keep that fascinating irrelevant graphic going! :>

      Speaking truth to/about progressives.

        There you go again, lying about your political ideology. You really need to change your screen name . . . it's so deceiving. Your silly Fox comment about Soros gave you away. You are aware that even FOX knows that Soros has nothing whatsoever to do with Media Matters, right? No funding from Soros at all . . . that's a lie. So, why don't you change your name to reflect what you really are: proudfoxbot.
