He is a psychotic man dog. That is a fact. Did you see him barking like the animal he is?

You are correct. I have not and will not. I already know what I need to know about Doggie Beck.
Now you acknowledge watching clips, taken out of context from the whole, to form your opinion?

I hope you don't go through life like that.

Again, I hope you don't go through life relying on out of context video clips to make your decisions.

BTW - the dog barking? It was, in its context, making a joke out of an issue.

A joke. Levity.

Then again, the left is pretty much of a joke these days

It wasn't a joke. It was his inner animal coming out. Mr. Doggie Beck.

Actually - it was making fun of an issue. But, then again, you evidently are not caring of the truth - and your own words are evidence of this.

Okay, I won't insult Beck but refute his points.

Here we go

Beck stated the purpose of the Progressive Movement was to make everybody dependent on the government and to destroy the constitution.

False and false.

Beck has used this term simply just to label his opponents something he wants his viewers to think is a bad thing.

Progressivism was a movement started in the mid-to-late 19th century as a means of fighting the political machine without resorting to extremities. It initially was started by NYT writters trying to expose the corruption of NYC politicians, notably Boss Tweed.

Not long after people trying to uphold social values and fight for equality began deeming themselves the term. Jane Addams, Cesar Chavez, Jakob Riis, Teddy Roosevelt, etc. Their ideas were hardly even rooted in politics. In a fair world, the issues they fought for wouldn't even be political.

In later years politicians and a few activists would label themselves as progressive but it did not differ by party. Simply they were people trying to progress society. People just used the term to describe their political views.

Beck uses the term to describe communism and other nondomestic fringe movements. Mao, Stalin, nor Hitler ever used the term progressive once.

So can we please can all this nonsense already?

I don't see anything manly about him at all, dog is too good for him as well,
to me he looks like a pink doughboy.

One of my professors is writing Beck everyday challenging him to a panel debate to discuss the teapartiers and how the founding fathers would frown on them. She's even offered to pay.

So far, 0 response
