our government is giving the future earnings of taxpayers away so i am glad that there are a few sources out there covering it. where is the mainstream media to cover the story about the 108 billion dollars to the IMF? why should united states taxpayers be indebted further so we can give other countries money? does anyone have an answer for this???????
I'm thinking that it has something to do with this.
• SDR allocation. The G-20 also mandated the IMF to make a new general allocation of the Fund’s quasi-currency of Special Drawing Rights (SDRs) to inject $250 billion into the world economy and increase global liquidity. Strauss-Kahn said proposals to proceed with this would be discussed by the IMF’s Executive Board on July 13.

Reason: additional data

of course, as the point is to commit the future earnings of the united states taxpayer and to establish long term debt for the citizens of the united states.

Bertha, Beck was on CNN when this post was started. He has since come over to Fox News. I don't think Fox news was bashing Obama for killing that fly (I think you're confused with PETA). What Fox did do was point out that the first 3.5 minutes of the morning show on CBS was spent laughing about Obama killing a fly, when there are far more important things happening in the world right now. They're bashing the libreral media in this case and not Obama. Obama is Obama, but the media should not be a part of his administration. If the media was fair and balanced, then there would be no need for Fox News.
You say enough things and eventually you'll be right, the problem is that every time there is a shift some one else is right. Even then, he's just a male version of Ann Coulter. Extreme right wing, insulting to anyone who doesn't agree 100%, and acts in anyway that will get people talking about him...usually the worse the better. He has no finance education or background, taking a single known class in theology in Yale in 1982 (some other program supposedly admitted him, but what he was learning is unknown and dropped out quickly ) just another shock jock pushing the extremes and dancing like a clown of the audience, preying on fear for ratings...then move on to something else when things start to look better.

I see most of the radio talk show hosts and TV commentators as merely the soup du jour. They have to sell advertising time and generate revenue. When I learned of Rush Limbaugh signing a $250 million deal, I said that was enough. This is all about money, whether left or right. Listening to talk radio has helped me minimal. I get more consistent opinion and frames of reference from friends and the tons of anonymous contributors to blogs and message boards.
If Sean Hannity or Beck or Limbaugh or any other talk show host wants to make a difference truly, let them run for political office and go through the process of working their way up to becoming prez someday. I can turn the radio dial to ignore them right now. If they become congressmen or higher, they can have a hand in drafting legislation and get their beliefs reinforced by the vote. What do they really want? I think they like the money and hands-off from rolling up sleeves and actually having to answer to making laws and explaining why they take money from here and want to put it there. Much easier to be a court jester in this modern day society. Would you want a Rush Limbaugh in your workplace? Much easier to keep them in their radio show cages.
Areen;t you mixing him up with obermann who seesm parniod of ORiley and others.
Nope. I'm talking about Glenn Beck.
