1. I don't argue about how RW or wrong Fox is anymore.
It's wasted energy.

Fox news has help me identify people I want nothing to do with.

3. That is so true
I hate this aspect of politics. I have had friends that are no longer friends as a result of political arguments. Sad but true.

8. Seeing fox "news" on in someone else's house would do it for me.
That would be my last visit. Life is just too damn short to spend any of it with conservatives.

10. Do you people understand...
Edited on Mon Aug-09-10 07:38 AM by NYMdaveNYI
That the more attention we give to these jackasses the more we are fueling them?

Let's just ignore the crazy rightwing smear machine all together...

The more we react to Beck, Billow and RushBo, the more incentive we give them to keep it up

6. "Planet of the Apes" . . . ??? Well, that wouldn't be racist at all, would it?????
I'd ask why he hasn't been tossed out on his ear yet by whomever is backing him,

but obviously he's been planted there to do as much harm as possible --

Otoh, I think he has a good chance of just totally cracking upon the air one day???

13. Right wing doesn't even try to cover racist up anymore
Amazon gets in trouble for comingg up with an Ape mask during search for MLK.

Glenn Beck says it and it's ho hum...

Amazon held to high standard... Fox News such a low standard, if I kicked shit on them they wouldn't notice. They got boots. Not high heels. although boots and high heals don't do much for your feet.

7. Racist much?
What a contrast between those 2 men...

Our family has no TV so on the rare occasion I stoop to watching Beck on a YouTube I am AMAZED that he is taken seriously by ANYone! I think the guy is going to spontaneously combust some day... Or maybe only wishful thinking.

9. If you're so numb, why do you listen, why do you watch, and WHY do you give
him bandwidth on this site? You make no sense.

12. One thing for sure if it had been the Planet of the Apes
and of course we know why he picked that medifore to compare Obama to, Fox wouldn't have been there this long. Beck would be history and bad history at that.

17. Beck, the ape-man
Here in Geogia, people watch and listen to Glen Beck with as much intensity as reading the Bible--in fact, their form of Republicanism/ Christianity demands that they do. The preachers here frequently quote from Limbaugh and Beck just as they quote text from the Bible. Southerners just can't get over a black man as President since they have lived for hundreds of years feeling superior to all African Americans.
The loss of the South to the North is still being debated about the Civil War. Here they honor the Rebel soldiers as heroes--the soldiers who FOUGHT TO PRESERVE THE ENSLAVEMENT OF OTHER HUMAN BEINGS!
Southerners claim that the cause for the war was by the North (forget their attack of Fort Sumpter) and that the North would not allow secession, forgetting that THE REASON THEY WANTED TO SECEDE FROM THE UNION WAS TO PRESERVE THE ENSLAVEMENT OF OTHER HUMAN BEINGS!!!!!

19. He is a white supremacist in plain sight,
giving validation to all the other nutballs. Not funny, not entertaining, but very dangerous for Fox to broadcast such ideas. Anyone with half a brain knows what types watch this program, and what they are capable of. He is an evil clown.
