          Really? I haven't seen any people that you are calling "the left" calling for a candidate to "shove a curling iron up" the bu** of his female opponent lately. Haven't seen anybody from what you are calling "the left" bringing guns to town hall meetings lately.

          You really need to learn that the terms you are using to describe those who agree with you and who disagree with you actually mean. I would doubt that you are truly a conservative based upon the crap you post here on a regular basis. A hint: agreement with Beck, Limbaugh or any of the other hate talk radio crew and the overpaid entertainers on Fox does NOT make you a conservative; in fact, it pretty much assures me of the fact that you are NOT.

          Indeed, far from it. Progressives weren't the ones talking about invading the White House, and violently getting rid of the people inside of it.

              I have seen some clips of it here and there. Tell me again how that is some sort of major protest against anything, and or how that is increasing the violence amongst progressives? I'm pretty sure the last one I saw, or saw clips of, the whaling vessel ran over the boat some of the guys were in.

            Incorrect sir, many people brought guns to several protests. You are talking about ONE incident. Fact is many of the groups who are doing the protests and bringing weapons are in fact white supremecist groups. Let's not pretend this isn't what it is. Take a gander at the Southern Poverty Law Center's web site and see who the groups are that are "active" in the ta party movement and see if you can make a few connections. As you were.

            Yep there was one guy there who had a gun who was black, and I remember seeing it on the TV, so wrong again. They didn't start talking about how this could lead to violence to black people, they talked about how it could lead to violence. Period. And as others have stated, that was just one guy, there were many more.

      I'd like to be a fly on the wall when Glenda gets his daily talking points from the GOP Propaganda Reichministers. It must be interesting, to say the least.

      It looks like they've deployed him to corral the total nutjobs that even Blimpaugh can't reach.

        He may be going for the Twilight demographic as well, with the vampire theme.

        Not to pick on adolescent girls, but they are generally not very interested in current events or politics, and very emotional. A natural for Beck.

      Where, exactly, did we get this taste of blood?

      keep preaching to the loons, Glenn. but, beware the day you try to actually deploy a stance they disagree with. Your listeners will turn on you in a heartbeat and you will become the humnted.

      Sucks to be you.

      Really? It was one of those "progressive vampires" who shouted out that Scott Brown should "shove a curling iron up her b***" in reference to Coakley at a Brown rally? And Brown, although he has now denied that his "we can do that" and his smile were in response to that shoutout, is a progressive vampire? Seriously?

        I believe you can spot Progressive Vampires in the Twilight movies.

      Of course, we all know that these cretins will be insufferable from now until November if Brown wins. There will be much chest thumping and crowing about a Conservative groundswell, etc. etc.

      For us Progressives, it will be like helplessly watching as rats devour our feet.

      Wow! Michael Moore has pulled off his human skin to reveal the reptile beneath! He's going to get violent by raising money for Democrats who support union candidates! He's going to keep making movies that expose the dirty practices of corporations and he's going to contribute to charity! Wow! What an evil person. And consider St. Glenn who is mocking relief efforts in Haiti and calling people he disagrees with names like vampires,leeches, thugs and Socialists. And he's such a Jesus Freak, he only wants to help people when he decides it is right and he wants to poison Nancy and beat Charlie with a shovel. Wow! Do you suppose he noticed that Pat was actually talking about him?

        No, because Beck is so stupid that he can't even determine fantasy (Twilight) from reality (Michael Moore). Remember what Al Franken wrote:

        "From what I understand, if you cut out all the passages in the Bible where Jesus talks about the poor, about helping out the least among us, you'd have the perfect container to smuggle Rush Limbaugh's drugs in."

        I bet Becky worships at the Altar of Supply-Side Jesus instead.

      You are a sick, disgusting pathetic excuse for a human being Beck. You have no clue to the fallacy of your daily rhetoric. As long as you get your blood money every paycheck you could care less about the truth.

      More evidence of the RWAs (Right-Wing Authoritarian) ability to project what they see and fear within themselves back out onto others. In a rather novel variation on that theme we see Beck denying the takeover of the Republican Party by the religious right using "looking-glass" or reverse projection. He transforms his knowledge of the religious far-right takeover of the GOP into one where his own and his audiences' traditional opponent - the Democrats, are being taken over by "progressive vampires".....a kind of mirror-image of the religious right. Fascinating stuff.
