"Return to Honor???" "Mission Accomplished???"
Edited on Tue Aug-31-10 12:15 PM by Cyrano
Who is honor being returned to? And if it’s something that needs to be returned, who abandoned it? How did that honor relate to the “God” that Beck was pretending to peddle to the imbeciles who showed up at his rally? And who the hell is Glen Beck to return anything to anybody when the man is totally unhinged and belongs in an asylum?

IMO, this nation’s so-called “honor” was lost when Cheney/Bush started torturing people, spying on American citizens and shredding the Constitution in more ways than any of us could imagine.

So exactly what is this scam artist named Beck talking about? His “Return to Honor” banner is as big a piece of bullshit as Bush’s “Mission Accomplished” banner. And what’s so mind-boggling is how many brain dead people buy into the dung he’s peddling.

I’m not sure exactly how many total idiots are walking around in this country, but far too many of them are totally incapable of realizing that they’ve fallen into Glen Beck’s sewer of absolute madness.

3. Teabaggers don't care about making sense.
As long as they have a cute slogan to keep them cozy at night.

4. He is either talking out his A** or hes insane.
I can't stand liars and hypocrites.
Even when I did not know what a nut he was I figured it out pretty quickly in the space of 2 shows. I know when someone is lying to me mostly and he has it plastered all over him.

5. No honor was lost when Nixon came up with the Southern strategy and stood on the
platform of law and order which turned out to be nothing about justice but code word for lets lock up all the blacks and poor. Where was the honor when Reagan blamed the countries woes on poor people and gave billions away to the corporate welfare whores. Where was the honor in trading American citizens being held hostage for arms to the people holding citizens hostage to win an election? Where was the honor when Clinton was impeached for lying about a private affair? Where was the honor when thugs closed down government to push more wealth to the already wealthy?

Where was the honor when a thug slipped in a deregulation that stopped Banks from making bad get rich scams? The Bush years where just more of the same dishonor that has been going on for a very long time. Wheres the difference between locking up people without wealth or a means to defend themselves and torture? Sitting in prison with rapists, killers and thieves that prey on the weak is also torture weather we want to admit it or not and that too has been going on for a very long time. All shrub did was instead of letting unpaid sadists do the governments dirty work was hand torture over to professional paid sadists. Honor my ass we lost that the day we let thugs distort the laws of the land for the illusion of safety from boogie men.

7. Sorry I'm worked up this week, over the weekend I had the police show up on my door
because they got a report that my SO and I weren't the people who are buying the house, we just saw an empty house and moved in. Seems my neighbor was upset that we got someone to come out to look at a tree that needs cut down on the property line as its destroying our roof as well as the neighbors and he stepped into her drive way to look at the tree. I'm venting lol.

8. Watching Glen Beck is like watching a very long LSD trip.
I suspect that the Glen Beck fans are that minority of Americans who somehow managed to live through the 1960s and 1970s without ever taking LSD. They see LSD Beck and they say "Wow."

He is just one very long, very sickening, very tiring, ultimately very boring LSD trip. Ughh.

They will soon wake up and discover they lost an entire day and never want to waste their time on someone like him again.
