      His contacts inside the CIA? Right. I can picture Sal & Richard form the Howard Stern Show calling Beck right now.

      I wonder if Glenda knows that Avatar was nominated for Best Picture? If it wins, how many blackboards will it take for him to explain the conspiracy?

        C'mon! Everyone knows time did not begin until Obama Took office. Therefore by default, everything is his fault.

      Keith Olbermann refers to Beck as "Lonesome Rhodes", after the Andy Griffith character in A Face in the Crowd. I think that's a fitting comparison. If you haven't seen the movie, I highly recommend it.

      It's about a loser who becomes a media superstar thanks to clever promotion and his ability to spout folksy sounding philosophy and anecdotes. He gradually starts taking himself seriously, gets the big head and alienates the people around him. He eventually crashes and burns (figuratively).

      We can only hope that Glenda suffers the same fate as Lonesome did.

      There's a famous saying.. when you owe the bank $100 and can't pay, you're in trouble, when you owe the bank $100 Million and can't pay, the Bank's in trouble.

      Well guess what Becky... both the US and China are in trouble together... it's actually not that different from MAD.

      Anyhow, I didn't realize that Communism won, I'm surprised you didn't lead with that...

      Wait a minute... according to you, Obama is communist, China rules the world, China is communistm therefore Obama rules the world?!!?!

      I guess it would make more sense if I did that on a blackboard.

      Is it possible that you are only hearing what you want to hear...I think that Beck clearly pointed out that George Bush DIDNT SAY ANYTHING to the Chinese when they were shipping over Poison Lead-based-paint toy...why didn't he??? Because he was taking their money...and we were i debt to them. Yes, Beck pointed that out right there in the first 30 sec. of the clip...maybe you should play that back. Beck is saying that it wasnt right under Bush and Obama is making it worse. Just so my little pea-brain can better comprehend, What part of "the Chinese own our HUGE DEBT" don't I understand? Doesn't this give them HUGE power and influence over how we treat them? Can someone enlighten me?

      Yes, and McCarthy had some contacts in the State Department. Unnamed contacts? Such creativity in coming up with conspiracy theories--idiot savant, I suppose.

      I love the part about China selling poison dog food to children.

      I also love how he get to the conclusion of China stealing our secrets because the white house has told our spy agencies to not prioritize our information collection on china.
