I don't remember about that. The speeches from the winter meeting he talked at this past winter to the labor group didn't sound a whole lot like he was very centrist. I would say he is left of Oba mao but that is just my opinion.

Do you want me to go back and find the shows where he played those speeches by Jones that were obviously delivered by someone at least as far left as the communist Jones admitted to being.

Whoops, I forgot, you don't like to watch videos. I will see if I can't just pickup the transcript of those speeches just for you, kind lady.

One would think that when MSNBC gets something wrong they get e-mailed by the White House that surely they would let Beck know when he tells a lie. I guess they only do this for those people who are throwing all truth like Olbermann does.

Thanks for the rep.

"[Greatday], Beck does what's called 'leading the witness'. He leads you to draw a specific conclusion. It's a very old trick."

You're a lawyer, correct?

I was just thinking the same thing. This is a thread called the most recent lies of Glenn Beck and it doesn't mention what they are.

The most recent one I can think of is the one about if you quote Mao, yer a Maoist.... unless you're John McCain or Newt Gingrich. Then it's all right.

I cant bring myself to quote myself again, so I'll try to restate: Glenn leads you all to the edge, then steps aside and lets you continue over the side - to draw the conclusion he led you to draw. Very old game, we've all played it.

Beck posts his own radio transcripts but not his TV ones.

I looked and got tired of trying to find the Van Jones speech at PowerShift 09 written for you. I got tired so I will let you google Van Jones at PowerShift 09 and go through all the videos. Actually you need to listen to this one.
YouTube - Van Jones Keynote at Powershift 09

Jones does not have a hard to listen to voice so try to take 20 minutes to hear the whole thing. Then you tell me that he isn't one of those who left the group that has red as its color and took up the green cudgel.
