    He's too close for comfort for the opposition. Glenn is the Prince of Truth and he backs it up with facts, even video facts. How about Obama's czar that helped write the stimulus bill? Another criminal.

    The questions Beck asks are simple yet exactly what we want to know more about. And did you see the White House answer to his question about the Czar Van Jones?

    Precisely!
    The big question is whether Obama is an evil mastermind who knows precisely where he wants to go, while pretending to speak in normal, almost capitalist, terms about his intentions, OR whether he is a "useful idiot" of the Marxist movement.
    Mastermind or puppet, that is the question!

    We are all puppets in some way shape or form. The wealthy and big corporations have and always will control the working class unless we unite as one voice and tell them enough is enough. The CEO's of these big corporations are making so much money, they or the family will never be able to spend it. Working Americans Unite.

    I have never heard such bull crap in my life! You must be delusional. There are very few truly "downtrodden" in this country, just people who want to be given everything and don't want the responsibility of working for it. Those that need the help get it. While I don't like the politics in Washington, and many things could be improved, there is only one true power in this world and that is divine power. I would ask you to pray and I will pray for your bitterness to subside and be replaced with goodness and love.

    I think you are actually parodying the intentions of the Administration and its Socialist fellow travellers, but just in case you are not, please remember:

    Theft does not generate wealth.
    You cannot grow the pie just by cutting it up
    The road to hell is paved with good (socialist) intentions.
    Just because you support those who seem to be creating a socialist state, do not assume that you will be one of the winners - just remember how small the winners' circle in the USSR was compared to the size of miserable, but equal, proletariat.
    Unless you happen to be, and are able to stay, "one of the pigs which are more equal than others", you will end up worse off.
    As a putative Obama/Socialism supporter, you would do well to remember these words from Winston Churchill: "An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile, hoping it will eat him last". The press and his enablers in industry would do well to remember this lesson, and the famous words of Rev Martin Niemoller:
    First they came for the Communists,
    and I didn’t speak up,
    because I wasn’t a Communist.
    Then they came for the Jews,
    and I didn’t speak up,
    because I wasn’t a Jew.
    Then they came for the Catholics,
    and I didn’t speak up,
    because I was a Protestant.

    left to speak up for me.

    Substitute "Conservatives" for communists above, and you're getting close to the truth - if the conventional media stays silent until the truth is staring them in the face, there will be no-one left with the ability to speak out on their behalf.

    So, sir, if you are not parodying the administration, and yourself, WAKE UP, COME ON, FOLLOW BECK!!! Do not let this land of equal opportunity (but unequal outcomes) be turned in to a land of equal misery.

    FIREBRAND : If I read you correctly , what you are saying is that people who were abused or suffered at the hands of others years ago should grab at any chance to balance the scales no matter who suffers . That would mean that all those of suffered at the hands of cruel Japenese leaders in the Philippines during WW2 and all those who suffered at the hands of cruel German leaders in and out of prison camps in Poland and elsewhere during WW2 and the Native Americans who were butchered and lied to by OUR government should all take it out on every Japanese, German or Government official every chance they get .

    Do you really want to see the streets empty with our children ,yours and mine , being afraid to step outside ? Do you want to keep watching your back ?

    I DON'T !!!!

    Those Democrats in office now had better be certain of what they are doing and what Bills and Laws and new measures they put into effect or support . They all have to run for re-election at some point and their actions NOW will not be forgotten LATER . Think about it .

    I agree in equality but I think you have gone from one extreme to another. Pull back, we do need to unite but we don't need anymore slaves.
    The rich and famous have made their millions of the backs of the poor and working class so it is time for us all to stand together and fight for not only affordable, quality healthcare but for fair and equitable wages in the work force.

    Did you ever stop to think who fought for freedom of the black people? At that time, women and blacks did not have a vote or a voice....I guess it was those "evil" white men who voted for the abolition of slavery and freedom for blacks. That means, dear unthinking sir, that you have not thought past your nose. The people who practiced slavery were in the minority, and white Americans voted for AND fought for your freedom. How long do you intend to ignore the truth, or do you just not have the mental capacity to understand history? Or maybe, continuing to blame others for any shortcomings you may have gives you some measure of dislusional credibility.

    FOX is the number 1 with Beck, Hannity, Cavuto and the left just despises the fact that their ratings are falling flat. The ratings are such that pollsters are having a hard time getting numbers together but it is far more than what the state runned media is put together. Liberals tend to ignore the mainstream Americans as nothing more than clinging to their bibles and guns and scoffed as right winged extremists when indeed, mainstream America is a bipartisan collection of Americans fed up with what they are seeing in their lackluster DC leadership.

    Yes you libs can pound down skewed numbers as to how Obama won 53% of the vote but mainstream America did not vote since they were not too pleased as to who was running. Believe me I have accepted that however, I am not falling silent to let our 233 years of life liberty and the pursuit of happiness fall into a group of socialists wanting to control the aforementioned freedoms that our founders and framers guaranteed every American. For this, we have Beck, Rush, Hannity, Boortz, et al who have been the beacon to preserve 233 years of American liberties much to the chagrin of liberals who despise their very existense and no the giant of mainstream America has been awakened to the chorus of those bipartisan Americans will make t...

    Beck called on Funeral Director Olbermann who boasted that he has the number 1 slot in men under 35 and then trashed mainstream America as right winged extremists. His comebacks as well as his side kick Stu were just hysterically comical. For 10 minutes he slammed Olbermann and his ilk for trying desparately to save his collecctive liberal ass while PMSNBC is tanking big time. How's that thrill up your leg now Matthews?

    I am not a Glenn Beck fan, but he is indeed entitled to speak his mind. His comments about President Obama being a racist are not outside the bounds of free speech as I see such. Regrettably, I fear that the liberals who are now trying to create a boycott to "shut up" Mr. Beck are the party endnagering free speech. I say let Mr. Beck continue to speak his mind, express his views, and argue his points. Debate and free speech are fundamental principles of American democracy.

    I think that, not only is Obama a racist, but the actions of his camp followers will set back race relations by 50 years. Just as we get comfortable with Martin Luther King's dream of judging men by their characters not their color, we get a bunch of yahoos who are all about grievance-mongering and reverse-racism. This is not progress, and we will have to be extraordinarily careful not to let it create a backlash.
    I want every person in the country to have an equal OPPORTUNITY. I am all for programs which help the poor and downtrodden to help themselves (EG School vouchers), but not about stealing from those who work hard to give to those who work less.
