      I know that Beck has some comprehension issues but; how does "sterilized water" have anything to do with birth control?
      Although I do agree that he will probably be remembered in history as a "fringe nutball". (paraphrased)

      This guy is so crazy he should have a segment on the Daily Show.
      Then we would know for sure that it was comedy.

        He's a personality, he's a modern day, real life Howard Beale - Except unlike Howard Beale I don't think that Glenn Beck is sick. Glenn Beck is a brilliant entertainer, he's got so many people mesmerized by his gimmick of conspiracies, shouting loudly and waving his hands about in an interesting fashion.

      Well, Beck should be happy if there were forced abortions for all the poor. That way, there would be less "socialist" welfare programs!

      Societies fail when the distribution of the wealth becomes too imbalanced... or do we need to return to the days of Louis XVI to understand that.

      As an enlightened society we cannot survive if 1% of the country owns 99.9% of the wealth.

      We aren't there yet, but we going in that direction... I think we should be going in the other direction.

      How does one man amassing one trillion dollars worth of wealth good for our society?

      But according to the neocons, that's okay...because they belong to that 1%. but what happens when 0.1% of this country owns 99.99% of the wealth... where will be then? Is that okay? Their ideology says yes...

      I don't know what the right balance is... but I know we are going in the wrong direction.

        Redistribution is totally cool but only if it works in favor of the rich, or have you not been watching your Fox diligently enough?

        Marriner S Eccles, FDR's Fed Chairman said it best when he said, "As in a poker game where the chips were concentrated in fewer and fewer hands, the other fellows could stay in the game only by borrowing. When their credit ran out, the game stopped."

      "Beck": If you don't believe those pesky things called facts and reality and this show makes perfect sense to you then I have a nice therapist that I think you should visit. She said we're making a breakthrough in being able to defeat the evil liberal-commie-marxist-socialist-authritarian-monarch that lives in my closet.

      It's sad cause beck's so called "facts" don't even support what he says or pass the standard google test.

      A high school graduate who constantly and bitterly criticizes academia...? Perhaps Beck should try limiting his criticism to things he knows something about.

        There is a fatal flaw of logic you make in your second sentence.
        You assume he knows something about something

      Okay, I realize all the shows on Fox are "point of view" shows. But Beck is starting to sound like the guy about to have an aneurysm who starts babbling incoherently. There was no point to any of that.

        Shhh, he already had an aneurysm, the nurses who are in the SEIU kept it quiet. It's a conspiracy.
