      I guess we need to add 'slave' to the list of words Bleck uses without knowing what they mean.

      Is Beck advocating for the dissolution of These United States of America.

      If we wanted to be a loose confederation of independent states, our founding fathers would not have put together the Constitution.

      To use the term slavery while advocating secession is no coincidence.

      You're a bad man Mr. Beck...

      Gee, a whole 16 second clip.......This is even below your standards, media matters (for very little)...

      I believe the comment in context would have revealed a return to constitutional leadership throughout the country instead of the dissolution now being attempted by the democrats in DC.

        If the word "SLAVE" needs context, then find another word.

        Dissolution? Whaddo you want? States' Rights or Federalism?

        And never mind about the 16 seconds... it's not the size of the clip, but the density of the stupidness.

        Constitutional Leadership translated equals Republican-run.

        You numbnuts never cared about the constitution until January 20th of last year.

        And you still don't understand it.

          Yeah, before then it was "just a g-d piece of paper", according to their own Dear Leader.

      Please let us know how we can avoid being a slave to Washington.

      . Make sure that Washington the first president is dead?
      . Tell whoever that our price is too high?
      . Have a tea party?
      . Move to Mexico?
      . Stop watching your idiotic program?
      . Disbelieve any of this crap that you are saying?

      I'll go with the last two.
