I just needed to say that I too find Beck to be a sick, twisted monster. Just when you think he couldn't get any lower, any more cruel or vicious, he lowers the bar and proves that his hatred knows no bounds.Helenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14967821142796562697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7127677169344207651.post-58662791514617931632011-07-27T22:29:03.482-04:002011-07-27T22:29:03.482-04:00ahh... good stuff.

A decent human being has some limits for what he is willing to do to make money.<br /><br />I appreciate that James does not support Glenn Beck's statements, though.<br /><br /><a href="http://cold-as-heaven.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Cold As Heaven</a>CA Heavenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07558100567878233142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7127677169344207651.post-80555220492358288182011-07-27T17:48:27.826-04:002011-07-27T17:48:27.826-04:00The stupid and ignorant statements by Glenn Beck m...The stupid and ignorant statements by Glenn Beck made quite some headlines over here. He, and his friends on Fox News, were probably disappointed when it turned out that the terrorist was a white and blond guy from the ultra-right wing, and not an Islamist. I considered writing a blog post about this, but I decided that I don't want to do it.<br /><br /><a href="http://cold-as-heaven.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Cold As Heaven</a>CA Heavenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07558100567878233142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7127677169344207651.post-35427502357029312942011-07-27T16:11:29.645-04:002011-07-27T16:11:29.645-04:00Now, what I'm about to say may sound bizarre, ...Now, what I'm about to say may sound bizarre, but bear with me.<br /><br />Glenn Beck is brilliant!<br /><br />Now, before you blow a gasket, I'm not a fan of his. Everything he says is a load of Bulls#$t, but he's figured out a way to make a boatload of money spouting Bulls#$t. <br /><br />Only a genius could do that... Just like Donald Trump!<br /><br />If Glenn Beck thought he could make more money spouting the liberal agenda, he would jump over in a heartbeat. However, the conservative tea bagger morons pays him millions to parrot their line of illogical mumbo jumbo. <br /><br />H@ll, if I could make millions doing what he does, I would!!! And don't kid yourselves folks, if the tea bagger morons threw that much money at you, you know you'd do it too!!!!<br /><br />As far as I'm concerned, just pay no attention to that Beck behind the curtain!James C.

No, you are ranting and I'm in a potterish reverie but we're both fundamentally fed the freak up with fundamentalist conservatives. <br />I don't know this character because I am a Canuck who doesn't watch tv. But I love you and dislike him so...<br />For a punishment? I think it would be better all round to send him to judge sheep at an endless country fair.
