      LOL!!! This clown is awesome. I would not be surprised if he pulls up next week with:

      "A Civil War, like what the NAZI's did to Poland, and we will be sent to the gas chambers where we could buy gold as a means to save our remaining Families, who are TRUE Americans and fight against Obama's Marxist beliefs Till they DIE with a bullet in their head."

      There, I think I hit all of his lame, stale talking points.

        That's really what is at the bottom of these rantings , isn't it? These bigots can't stand that a black man is in the White House. America,( I should point out that I am a Canadian) has moved on. The vast majority of Americans aren't racists, but the nut-cases still linger.

      This is similar to those so-called historians who blame Lincoln for the Civil War....I mean the War of Northern Agression.

      Yes, Obama's pathetic and overt gestures of bipartisanship, and hardly ever standing up for liberal ideals (Miranda rights, public option, deals with Big Pharma, prosecuting Bush war crimes, Afghanistan troop surge) despite having 59 Senators and a majority of the House is tearing the country apart. He's the most ideological president we've ever had (sarcasm).

      You know who actually tore us apart? From 2000-2008, your cronies got everything they wanted. Were there any bipartisan talks with Democrats? No. Democrats cowered under accusations of being unpatriotic, and they still do! If anything, Senate and House Democrats as well as Obama should be blamed for not trying at all to prevent a mere 41 Republicans from tearing the country apart.

      And again, Beck, it is YOU who is trying to destroy our country with your uneducated and dishonest rants on your RIDICULOUS radio program and television show. Quit projecting.

      I don't happen to think that all the people in Arizona are racists. I think that some racists in the legislature have managed to pass some really racist legislation, but it doesn't make Arizona or all of its government racist. I'm not sure about the Governor. Is she a racist, or merely a naive idiot? I think the pseudo-Conservatives are the ones pushing for a civil war, just like they did 150 years ago.

          A very interesting article. Funny, I grew up in all-white neighborhoods, and my experiences with adults in the community are just like the author's. I don't know why, given my background, but I was always aware of racism, too. I don't always see it, but I do on a regular basis, and I do my best to fight against it. My experiences in the Southwest have taught me that there are often two communities, the White one and the Spanish one, and fear on both sides. I really enjoy the Spanish and Native cultures of the Southwest. I don't fear them, but sometimes, I think they fear me, and it makes me sad.

      So you think the President should get involved in a dispute between LA and the commissioner in Arizona? I thought you were for States rights. I thought you wanted Obama and government not to interfere.

      . . . and the oil slick is slowly creeping towards your beach.

      that will probably put it a context you understand, you will have to wash all the oil residue off of the nesting Ditto-heads in your backyard.

      Many of Beck's supporters are geo-religious pragmatists who support Glenn's incitements for violence as a means to the end times... and also, civil unrest will help the GOP come election season. In this sense, Beckerheads are similarly aligned with neo-Zionists CINOs (Christians In Name Only) who support Israel's incitement of violence in Palestine through the expansion of settlements and efforts to reclaim the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. These actions too are seen as crucial to bringing about the end times as foretold in the book of Revealation. Interestingly, while these CINOs, pay lip service to Jews being "God's chosen people," they also believe Jews are damned to hell for rejecting Christ.

      No Glenn, it's you and your ilk that're pushing the country towards civil war. Obama is just doing his thing. Hasn't shot anybody, hasn't taken away anyone's rights, hasn't locked anyone up without trial, wiretapped their phones illegally or waived their miranda rights. He's just being a normal President, trying to make America a better place for its citizens. Giving people healthcare is not attempting to start a civil war. The one trying to start the war is you.
