Contrary to media hype, Sarah Palin is very unpopular
Was that clear?
Wish someone would deliver it to clown Beck, would love to watch him trying to wrap his head around it.
Either way, they both manage to ignore the fact that America is a two-caste system: the Haves, and the Havenots. We used to have a middle class, but most of those jobs were shipped overseas in the last 40 years so the Haves could have a little more, by the conservatives who run big business.
I'm including a link to a piece of video from the barbecue, and you can decide for yourself if it is the extravagant, wasteful, offensive and grotesque spectacle Beck and the caller think it was:

I wonder if they eat bananas? I mean they are most likely imported from some scary tropical destination. I hope they never eat grapes from Chile or avocados from Mexico. Ooooh.
Oh, I like the way she say's "Maybe I'm just a stupid conservative" and then goes on to prove her point. Sheesh!
Anyone else recall over the last 8 years that the teabaggers claimed libruls and Dems were the "party of doom and gloom"?
Then, no more than a minute later, he said that sales are so good that stores are having problems keeping them in stock.
So he advocated people giving their "highlighted and dog-eared" copies to others.
What a collossal idiot.
If we're heading toward socialism, wouldn't an Indian caste system be almost exactly the opposite of that?
Which is it Glenn? Are we heading towards socialism and wealth re-distribution, or are we going to have a caste system (which we sort of do already)?
So Glenn, name the players in your analogy and how indeed a comparison can be supported.
Or is it just another scary word, to feed fear into your, uh viewers.
How is Obama asking us to tighten our belts?
The republicans are bankrupt.
They are so out of ideas that they are using the criticism against them now on President Obama.
The republicans are bankrupt
They are such the contrarian that President Obama can't throw a Father's day barbecue without some lame criticism because in the conservative world, unless it's hot dogs and baseball, it's not American. Forget the fact that he celebrated Father's day with his family unlike other "would be" Presidential candidates.
The republicans are bankrupt
They are trying to stop cap and trade the only way they know how? Not on it's merits... not on the philosophy... but on scare tactics, trying to scare people in to thinking it's going to cost $2,000/household when that's a lie. For the poorest 20% it will save them money (not a lot, but it's still a saving) I was thinking that since they basically agree with the bill, except for the high cost, maybe we can get Glenn Beck to agree that CO2 is a green house gas and Global Warming is real!!!
Shame GB, you need to turn the page and see that we are taking our country back from despots and liars like you!
I've mentioned this before on this site, but it may bear repeating: a few years ago the British news weekly magazine, The Economist, which had initially supported the "Toxic Texan," as they called Dubya (for his environmental policies in Texas), turned on him for, among other things, his tax policies which were "creating a European style class system." I vividly remember reading it on the air in a radio show I do. It was a brilliantly written piece, and Bill Moyers picked up the most powerful paragraph and quoted it in his book, On Democracy.
Mr. News
Finding it is becoming easier for that population.
Besides, when did Macadamia Nuts become "exotic"? I buy mine at Target.
Let's GO!
