They can't even be consistent on one point for more than a day, or even, a sentence.
And they would have gotten away with it, too, if it hadn't been for that meddling Blecch...
Get out of bed
Get ready for work: take ex-lax for 'content'
Go to work
Go home
In my book, this photo pretty much proves that Beck is a phony. He posed for it, crying chemically induced tears, in essence mocking his own schtick. Now, if you were genuinely so concerned for your country that you regularly tear up on national TV, would you mock that emotion by mugging for the camera like this?
I really don't think so.
We could make $1,500 a year, live in little flats stacked on top of eachother or huts or caves. We could have one community beat up white toyota truck that seldom runs,or bath in a filthy river, have no sewer system or running water. We could get rid of those nasty refridgerators and washers and dryers too. We would have no use for Television or fresh food, electricty, few schools with an even lower literacy rate, a weak pathetic military and we would all be happy because we are equal to the rest of the third world,Think you low our carbon foot print would be now they'll love us.
No wait!!! who's that eating steak, and living in a mansion, and cruising around in a Gulfstream....it's it's....AL GORE!!! still not green after he got what he wanted......Ahhhh progress!
Does he not get why $27,000 in NYC is less than $27,000 in Omaha, NE?
Does he not understand that someone making $87,000/yr and living in NYC would be low to middle income but in NE would be above average?
What? Wasn't Glenda one of the people harping about GM workers making too much money about six months ago?
During the great depression, the US had less poverty than india has now. Not the best comparison.
When are american unions fighting for better wages for india's workers?
I know its hard to believe but No one cares what YOU want Beck!
SEIU has a membership of 1.8 MILLION workers not 1 of whom lives in India.
I wonder how far he can go before he actually becomes totally incoherant.
"Glen Beck and SEIU sittin in his tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G!" The love affair he has with SEIU is facinating! LOL!
His smear campaign and delay tactics are not producing the results he had hoped for. He has told so many lies now that he cannot remember what he lied about previously, and it is starting to catch up with him.
This site is supposed to be “smart people” and enlightened progressives with opinions? It sounds like some 10 year old figured out the password to his Dad’s computer and started commenting with 50 different account names. I don't believe everything Beck says, but some of his points and research appear to have legs. I don’t believe anything I hear from anyone until I do the research myself, but often people like Beck get me pointed in the right direction. If it walks like a duck...it's a duck.
People want to marginalize anything he say's as a right wing rant or nut job conspiracy, I disagree.
Some of his stuff might be stretching it to the extreme, but show me one commentator that doesn't. Oberman, Mahr, Limbaugh..et al they all sensationalize what they say to some degree...that's their gig…entertainment and commentary.
So nothing Beck say's is true, all lies and made up sensationalism, but Al Gore...now everything he says is true, because??? Where is his science degree? I'll wager Gore's made more millions on his bogus religion than Beck has, even though Beck has more followers. So, name your guru and someone will throw their freedom and personal sovereignty to the winds of history just to fit in with the group think mentality. After all, it is much more comfortable to be part of a herd...it's safe...evolution has taught us to seek safety in numbers. Anyone who does not think like us, we cannot listen for a valid point here and there...we must kill it, even though they may be right.
Is no one fairly alarmed that union bosses have the direct ear of our president? SEIU has 2 millions members...and that small number should direct the health and financial policies for the other 298 million? I did not even know about it until I read about it here, then I looked into it and Beck has it right, like it or not. I don't care which party is in power...that is scary to me, and it should be to you! Has anyone actually sought out and read some of the comments and beliefs of the people who now have the ear of the most powerful man in the world? Do you think it's only a party agenda? I think it is more ideological, and that's not healthy for our way of life folks. Regardless of what some may think of having a “progressive” country, all I can say is be careful what you wish for….you might get it. To epkklk851...I disagree with you, I would argue that if you ask an actual Korean where they would rather live, USA or Korea, they would not say Korea 75% of the time. I've lived in 6 different countries and visited every continent, and I can tell you with all of her flaws, I'll take America any day. That's why everyone’s trying to get in, and no one's trying to get out.
I would say if you are honest with yourself, you can disagree, and prove the other wrong with facts, not insults. When you just sit in your Dad’s basement and flame people and call them names, your intellectual argument speaks a thousand words for everyone to see.
