      Careful Glenn!

      Keep up this kind of talk and your fans will all be at the feed store trying to buy server seeds to plant their own crop of servers.

        And then the C.H.U.D.s came.

        What are his complaints here, that info will be put on one database, or that people are "moving forward" ? Sounds like efficiency and progress, wolfsbane to wingnuts.

        Notradumbass' best punch line here is "The last thing we need is another conspiracy theory !". Running out of room in the bunker, Glenn ?

        I like better the planting of taxes for harvest in 2018.

      Right, Becky.

      They're adjacent to the FEMA camps . . .

      I wish the PRogressive Movement would hold their own conference. Why do we not counter CPAC with a PPAC??? Lets get the truth out to the masses. Of course, the 'Liberal Media' would not cover it.

      I know this is just more crazy paranoia from Beck but what would be so bad about a medical database?

        Sounds like the Matrix. Maybe Obama is going to put us all into suspended animation so that the machines have energy.

      Server Farm? What the heck is he talkinga bout.

      Apple is building the world's largest datacenter in Virginia... does that mean that Apple is building a server farm for medical data?

      Beck is really talking out of his a$$ right now.

        Well, in all fairness, Apple is trying to take over the world. In fact, I'd like to take my iPhone out back and burn it...as soon as I find an app for that...

      Regardless of you position on health care reform, can somebody please explain to my why a unified and central database for medical records is a bad thing?

      I will forego discussion of the argument about the purpose and reason for a "server farm" being constructed in Virginia and just remind folks that many of our Nation's most important intelligence communities are based in Virginia, including Quantico.

      As usual, Mr. Beck, you are making wild eyed accusations without looking at other possibilities that would be far more logical and don't require the huge leaps of logic and reason that you continually make.

        But how do you get everyone scared and out buying guns and gold if you use logic & reason?

        That's not logical.

        (I'm hoping I don't need to add an irony/satire/humor disclaimer for this)

        This may not go over well, but I actually think there's legitimate reason for concern -- definitely not panic or alarm, but concern. Like anyone who read and appreciated Michel Foucault's work in college, I'm not terribly comfortable with the collection by the public or private sector of individual biomedical information. But in this case, what we're talking about is a uniform system for centrally managing information that is already collected and managed privately.

        You gotta give the guy huge props for saying all this without dissolving into pants-wetting laughter...he's amazing.....maybe he's so angry at not drinking, he doesn't laugh at anything...

      The only thing Beck needs is a few hundred more conspiracies. How else will he be able to convince his cultists that he holds all the secrets to the universe. I would love to hear a psychiatric evaluation of his performance at the CPAC convention. I would bet there are serious diagnostic disorders present. He sure looks like a sociopath to me.
