If you want to attack becks views on a topic please let the discussion begin and defend the liberal point of view other then blaming fox news.
My point in this discussion is you can ask vague questions to either side (or to someone with no "side" at all) and get them to agree so you can "GOTCHA!".

Do you like kittens? SURE! WHO DOESN'T!

THEN YOU AGREE WITH SO AND SO, HE OWNS A KITTEN!

I think the whole point of this post is that all those statements were "common sense" statements that anybody with any intellect would agree with. But when the "stated liberals" found out that the "evil" Glenn Beck said them, they freaked out that they would actually share some common sense with him.

What's really scary?
That fans of Glenn Beck think he's RIGHT WING!

Want to know what REAL right wing sentiment is?

Virginia Constitution, 1776.
SEC. 6. That elections of members to serve as representatives of the people, in assembly, ought to be free; and that all men, having sufficient evidence of permanent common interest with, and attachment to, the community, have the right of suffrage, and cannot be taxed or deprived of their property for public uses, without their own consent, or that of their representatives so elected, nor bound by any law to which they have not, in like manner, assembled, for the public good.
All men ... cannot be taxed without their own consent.
All men ... cannot be deprived of their property for public uses without their own consent.
All men ... cannot be bound by any law that is not for the public good.

Since 1935, Americans have lived under national socialism, and have no private property rights. Though most are persuaded to believe there is a LAW requiring all Americans to participate, the opposite is true. American socialism is 100% voluntary - so to sidestep the constitutional ban on involuntary servitude.

Until Beck or any other dexter wing pundit says those dreaded words, "ABOLISH SOCIAL SECURITY", they're LEFT WING SOCIALISTS.

That video is hysterical.

I challenge everyone to read Beck's book, Common Sense, then let's have a discussion on it.
Don't want to buy it? Check the library.

I've watched Beck a few times in the past couple of weeks and haven't made it more then 5 minutes into it without him trying to sell me his book. Are you kidding me?

Better yet, he is a Libertarian right? Yesterday he went after Mexico for attempting to decriminalize personal possession. This guy is the reason I left the libertarians before he even knew about them. What a pathetic sellout. I wouldn't even shake this jokers hand if he came begging me on the street.
