"Beck’s angry broadcasts about the nation’s imminent doom perfectly rode the wave of fear that had washed across the nation"
IT makes me mad that the article makes Beck look like a fear monger. He didn't just say "its all gonna end," he gave advice! Also, alot of the stuff he predicted came true! You don't have to like him, but at least he has some good plans. Lower taxes, oh man he's insane. Smaller government, oh man, he's insane. Recognizing that the government is not a government with out people, and that this is a country of the people, not the government.
Never once did I hear him say radical things like: "THE END OF THE WORLD IS HERE! EVERYONE GO RIOT! CREATE ANARCHY!"
Did you ever hear him say that?

No, but I heard him talk about how he would kill Michael Moore. And I heard him say that 9/11 victims are "always complaining" and don't deserve any sympathy or recognition. And I heard him say that Obama has a deep hatred for white people.

Im not saying that I agree with those statements, and his show was an opinion piece. But clearly he never said its the end of the world, and he was not a fear monger.

News broadcasting should not be opinion-based. Plain and simple.
So don\'t read that article from the Washington times, because that's an opinion piece. So don\'t read any news, or hear, or see anything other than traffic reports, because no matter what, now adays all news has opinion mixed in with it.

That time of the month, Creed? Your arguments seem to make less sense when there's blood flowing from your vagina.
"Leftist sodomites should make you fear for your country because they're seeking to change U.S. currency by putting Al Gore, Michael Moore, and Keith Olbermann on $1, $5 and $14 bills. Add up those numbers and what do you get? 20, which is the same day of the month Hitler was born." ---Glenn Beck

I didnt here him complain about democracy. I did hear him say that democracies don\'t work, thats why were a republic. He's right, were not a democracy. I didnt hear him say that democracy is bad...
Eugenics is bad, so really, it doesn't make any sense to want it. If eugenics really start, it can turn into something like Nazi germany, I don\'t think it will, and if it did I believe there are enough people to make that impossible. Euthanization is disgusting, even though I think that people in a free society should be able to do that. Facism is not really a right wing policy.
"Fascism is anti-communist, anti-democratic, anti-individualist, anti-liberal, anti-parliamentary, anti-conservative, anti-bourgeois and anti-proletarian, and in many cases anti-capitalist.[15] Fascism rejects the concepts of egalitarianism, materialism, and rationalism in favour of action, discipline, hierarchy, spirit, and will" -Wiki
Nor is it a left wing policy, I disagree with both commentators on that point. Its annoying how the young turk man says that "facism is the most right wing policy."
Also, progressive mentality is fine, not modern day, but the progressive of the 1920's. A moral standard, the belief that America should be a shining beacon of morals for the world and spread capitalism through the world.
The guy commenting is an ass wipe, he blatantly says that Beck is a idiot on a street corner. He also makes several jabs at the right wing party.
I don\'t go around and say YOUR ALL IDIOTS FOR HAVING DIFFERENT OPINIONS, especially on tv or the internet.
Working people up, that may be true, but come on. The left and right wing party both are filled with extreme propaganda, don\'t act like only he does it, or only conservatives do it.
When the conservatives recently proposed 5% cut on a food program, the "leftists" accused the conservatives of wanting to starve the elderly. Both sides do this, most politicians are retards.

We are a democracy because 200 years ago when this nation was being founded, we did not have things like the internet, phones, or satellite communications. Americans were spread thin along the East coast and information was slow moving. It made sense to have someone "represent" these people...because there was no way to inform them otherwise! Nowadays, the republican system is vastly outdated. We have idiots representing us...in both parties. Direct democracy is the ONLY correct form of democracy for the modern era. Don't like something? Vote on it! The world should not be controlled by a few rich men and women who claim to "represent" us. It's not even a matter of Republican or Democratic here.

This is not what this thread is about. This is about a news article that states Glenn Beck is losing his job...and we are providing feedback on this notice. Congrats, you don't agree with the majority of what comes out of Glenn Beck's mouth...obviously, since you say you don't support eugenics, fascism, and euthanasia (btw, it's called "spell check"...would make conversations more sustainable).

Morals based on what? Christianity? LOL! Yes, let us pass a bill saying touching pig skin is illegal...as well as eating shellfish...yay progress! You were the one freaking out about sharia law in the Egyptian revolution thread.

Glad you finally understood that! But it is a bit hypocritical for someone that believes in republican principles to acknowledge that politicians (ie: the people that represent us in this REPUBLIC) are retards.
Play me off, Glenn!

By definition, right-wing, rightist and the Right are terms applied to conservative and reactionary positions, both of which apply to fascism. They also stress nationalism and oppose communism. I hear a lot of arguments stressing that socialism is mentioned in fascist agenda. It doesn't really mean anything that they have the word "socialist" in the name. The official name of North Korea is the "Democratic People's Republic of Korea," but there is nothing democratic about it. There's not much in a name.

Now who really is the asswipe? Ask yourself, which is more idiotic: saying you hate 9/ll victims or name-calling
I don\'t go around and say YOUR ALL IDIOTS FOR HAVING DIFFERENT OPINIONS, especially on tv or the internet. Yes, well, Mr. Beck sure does!
Working people up, that may be true, but come on. The left and right wing party both are filled with extreme propaganda, don\'t act like only he does it, or only conservatives do it. I will agree with you on this. We all focus on Beck about 90%, when both parties do the same to some sort of degree. HOWEVER, that does not in anyway make it right.
When the conservatives recently proposed 5% cut on a food program, the "leftists" accused the conservatives of wanting to starve the elderly. Both sides do this, most politicians are retards. I will also strongly agree with you on this. Politicians are retards.

Euthanization is disgusting, even though I think that people in a free society should be able to do that.
I think it is more disgusting to let the young child suffer his 5 to 7 year life not being able to move, talk, feed himself, learn, or see. I don't think anyone would rather watch their child's brain deteriorate than know that he didn't have to go through so much.

For real. The world isn't all that great when your skin is inside out and you're breathing through a tube. It's not even a question of morals...it's a question of realism.

Usually I try to stay away from these threads, but I couldn't help but post in this one.
first of all, I thought the Glenn Beck video were pretty funny. Just an opinion. Second, @Creed, the very far right IS Fascism, but both left and right meet in spectrum eventually. (the full political spectrum is a circle.)
And third,

Thank you to Accordionman for being the only new member in a long time to actually read and care about the rules.
While I personally try to uphold the "no politics" rule, there are occasionally a couple threads that shoot off into politics. Coincidentally, that time is when Creed decides to join us...
