And your point is..........? The biggest threat to liberals and this administration is not the GOP, it is the people who are fed up with the status quo from both parties. They will likely vote anti Dem no matter what.

Default GOPers say they want to give Glenn the boot.

Like to see 'em try.

And you would like to think people are stupid enough to take your words seriously. Beck aligns himself with virtually everything that contemporary GOP stands for. And so much so, that he might be inching ahead of GOP's other mouthpiece.... Rush Limbaugh.

I never implied that anyone should pay any attention whatsoever to what I post. Any person who follows Glenn Beck will know he dislikes the GOP as much as he does the Dems. It is not rocket science, Einstein.

I never watch him either, but I am pretty sure he should be registered with the local mental health office.

Excerpt from the OP's link:
"Given the opportunity to expel one member from the GOP, 30% said Sen. Olympia Snowe (R-ME), 7% said Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.), 15% said former Secretary of State Colin Powell, and 15" called for the ouster of bombastic conservative talk show host Glenn Beck."

I find it quite sad that 30% would like to expel Senator Snowe, for nothing more than being a moderate and most probably for being neutral on abortion, which is still THE single biggest hot button topic on the extreme right, i.e., the American Taliban contingent of the GOP. Sadder still is that only 7% would rid the GOP of whack job Bachmann. What's up with that? She's a national joke. At least one in six see Beck as an anchor around their neck.

Snowe was considered as a possible VP candidate with John McCain, and IMO, if SHE had been on the ticket instead of the empty headed facade Palin, then JM would be our POTUS today, with a VIABLE person in the "one heartbeat away" VP slot. But the American Taliban promised a floor fight if a fundie fave wasn't in the VP slot, so we got Palin for the VP slot and the GOP lost its ass, bigtime. Snowe has real CRED in the N.E. USA with McCain having CRED in the west, a good combination, but no, the mentality on the far right would rather lose the election - genius. A McCain/Snowe ticket had a GREAT shot at being the first party to put a women into the leadership stratosphere; if they boot anyone out of the GOP, it should the extreme religious right.

If word gets out on the GOP budget proposals to nix SS and Medicare, The Tea Party grassroot members (consisting of older Americans by most accounts) surely won't be voting for the Republicans either.
