Austen Goolsby or Glenn Beck?

Check out Beck for today and then get back to me as to who is lying and who is not lying. I don't know one progressive who will take a chance of doing such a thing but do hope that at least one of you takes that chance.

If you must attack the delivery man, me or Beck, do it and prove that you didn't watch one minute of the show. I know those who won't waste their time and will continue to think that Beck is the liar.

You wouldn't by any chance be able to provide a basic summary as to what the conversation consisted of would you? I'm a bit busy now (with homework) but would be interested in knowing the basic main points and such if you wouldn't mind. I don't have the time now to sit through a whole 30 minute tv show or however long his program is.

You can catch the answer to the question by watching from about the 12 minute mark of the first part. You can see Goolsby copying Beck with a white board and crude drawings just like Beck does. I am not about to tell you just what Beck said so your friends can come charging in on my question.

If you can't do what I suggested, and I realize what your problem is, just let it ride.

In otherwords Johknip the answer is no.

Trick question: Both are lying but only one definitely knows he is lying.

Reason:
[] Since 1933, no dollars have circulated. A "dollar bill" is not a dollar. Ergo, any statement referencing dollars but actually referring to current monies (Federal Reserve Notes) is false and misleading. (See Coinage Act of 1792, et seq.)

[] Federal Reserve notes are not lawful money. They ARE legal tender upon obligated parties. . . like the Federal government (see Title 12 USC sec. 411). And they're tender upon the 305 million "human resources" (via FICA/ Socialist Insecurity), who are equally liable for the impossible public debt.

Well going by Fox news track record I would have said that Beck was lying.

After all did'nt Fox go to court to fight for it's right to mislead & lie to it's viewers? it actually won it's case & so continues to lie to & mislead it's viewers.

We have Fox news in the UK but hardly any people watch it, because we like our news to be reasonably unbiased, unlike the Fox news channel that exists to promote right wing propaganda.

Fox is garbage pure & simple.

I don't even know who Austen Goolsby is, nor do I care. Nor will I be tricked into watching Glenn Beck just to find out.

Or they could both be telling the truth in relation to how they see it.
Politics is weird like that.

Beck doesn't "lie," per se. He is insane.

The daily "If-you'd-just-watch-Glenn-Beck-for-a-minute-you'd-realize-how-brilliant-he-is" thread. I wonder if Glenn Beck obsession is going to be included in DSM V?
