Where's this letter?

Besides, I thought that whatever goes on behind closed doors between consenting adults is none of our business?

Obama is making money off investments (capital gains and dividends) Hypocrit!

First was the Illinois State Senate Pension Fund, which Obama listed as worth something between $50,000 and $100,000.
The other two were investments in funds with Vanguard, the investment management company.

Obama had investments in the Vanguard Wellington Fund, which he evaluated as worth between $100,000 and $200,000. The Wellington Fund consists of around 60 to 70 percent stocks and 30 percent to 40 percent bonds and is essentially a fundamental mutual fund.
The Obamas also had $50,000 to $100,000 invested in the Vanguard Wellesley Fund. This Fund is more bond-heavy than most balanced funds, with exposure to around two-thirds bonds to one-third stocks.

and....these seem to be everything that a leftie could want.

Gross.....the thought of sex with Schultz just made me puke in my mouth a bit.

It doesn't fit their narrative.

Which is this....YOU cannot succeed without government holding your hand and feeding, educating, clothing and housing you.

That's my view of him too. I used to watch his show. And I would go back and forth from "wow, that's really interesting" to "what in the world are you talking about?!"

I think the power has gone to his head a little bit. Not in that he's on some power trip. But in that he just runs with every thought in his head and doesn't have anybody around him to say "Glenn, that's kind of dumb"

So every brilliant thought he has gets out there, but so does every wacky thought he has. We all have wacky thoughts, but we dismiss them. We don't all have a personal staff who says "Yes, let's run with that!" because their paychecks depend on it.

What leads you to believe that Dr. Carson is wrong? Beck is certainly smart as evidenced by his success. Just because he's smart doesn't mean he's right or anything else for that matter. Beck was certainly smart enough to find and exploit certain hot button issues in such a way as to gain quite a following.
You may not like what he says or does but calling him stupid? Not hardly.

Uh...so what? How is that misogynistic? Misogyny is hatred of women. Referring to them as sex objects is not hatred of them. It's a biker magazine. That's normal in that culture and the women in it are willing participants. Obama spent 20 years in Reverend "God D*mn Amerikka" Wright's church, was friends with mad bomber Ayers, and wrote about seeking out the most radical people he could find in college but we're not supposed to say he's at all socialist or anti-American. But West writes a column for a biker rag and that makes him a misogynist?

A guy at war writing an erotic letter to his wife from the warzone makes him a misogynist? Wow, now that's really really reaching. The last one was flimsy already, but this one is just pathetic.


On a separate note, it's funny how the liberals immediately dismiss any links coming from theblaze or world net daily or daily caller, but we're supposed to accept democratic underground, huffington post, and think progress.

Huffington Post and Salon accuse him of it so it must be true <sarcasm> From the gossip extra mag.

Yet another example of a successful American who is threat to the liberal agenda so liberals must run a smear campaign.

I also like what he had to say. Notice that Democrats are the only people that think have an issue with anyone who speaks out against Obama.
You got that so wrong. It is the democrats that lead the blacks around by the nose.
