Maybe Obama should just tell his kids that he is not personally plugging the leak, that hundreds and thousands of men and women are working on the leak and the clean up but HE isn't actually doing any of that work himself. It's a teachable moment...sounds like Obama missed it.
Slander of his daughters, I don't know. Public figures, except Sarah Palin and Ross Perot, don't usually make a big stink about things said about their families. Beck made fun of Obama's daughter's education, her speech, etc. It's lowlife to do that. Beck even said as a dad he should have known better. It's well known the way to get someone really p***** off is to say something mean about their kids. Beck knows that.

Anything that comes out of the mouth of doggie Beck is a lie.

I think it's unseemly to watch someone battle mental derangement on broadcast television, and, frankly, I think FOX should be taken to task for profiting from his inevitable breakdown. It's past time for an intervention. That man needs help, and I say that in all sincerity and with absolutely no political motivation.

Now all those who have attacked Sarah Palin's family need to step up and do the same.

<sarcasm> wow really deep thought there...i respect you so much because you think things through and base your opinions in FACT </sarcasm>

becks on the better side of crazy but i respect a man who apologizes because it only brings back the issue for more back lashing like this. The fact that hes willing to apologize sets him apart from other talking heads who bury it under the rug or act like it never happened. everyones personal opinion gets the best of them once in a while.

but anti beck people on here who make stupid, disrespectful comments like these are no better than the people who call obama the antichrist.

Thank you.

Oh? You mean a man who "apologizes" or is willing to "apologize".

It's show business. His apology is as sincere as everything else he has ever said on the air, and everything else the rest of them on all of the cable networks say everyday.

Keep talking about them. Keep fighting over the things they say. Just make sure you spell their names right, and when you post links make sure they're working. Even when you wish horrible things on these show biz folks, make sure you do it in popular places so people will see and hear it. Otherwise you might not make them all richer than they already are.

Nice job. You're doing exactly what they want you to do.

Yes, and he apologized for all of it....still nothing even remotely lawsuit worthy in his words. He didn't HAVE to apologize to avoid legal trouble as you suggested. A judge would laugh such a case right out of court.
