I couldn't rep you so you will just have to accept my thanks for posting this post. Truth does scare the hell out of progressives and Beck is very full of that. They can't prove he is lying so they just call him a racist and liar but never have any examples of his lies.

Read your opening post and see why some would think you were calling Beck a bully because of your wording.

“Mitt Romney … gave you government health care that is now bankrupting the state” of Massachusetts.

Forty-five percent of doctors “say they’ll quit” if health care reform passes.

“Why do we have automatic citizenship upon birth? We’re the only country in the world that has it.”

“In the health care bill, we’re now offering insurance for dogs.”

John Holdren, director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, “has proposed forcing abortions and putting sterilants in the drinking water to control population.”

Franklin Roosevelt never allocated more than 12 percent of GDP to federal spending, while the percentage for Barack Obama is not projected to drop below 22.8 percent.

Chile ranks third internationally in economic freedom, while the U.S. ranks
17th.

“You don’t know if this (the H1N1 vaccine) is gonna cause neurological damage like it did in the 1970s.”

There are hundreds more of course, but the main point of concern is this:
What happens to education when it is based upon opinions without evidence? What happens to education when poor opinions are disguised as fact?

Glenn Beck’s lies and why we should worry about his “university” « A little more conversation, please

I have not even scratched the surface.
You need to scratch a little harder because all your claims don't seem to have any proof other than the words of a left leaning organization that spits their turds out to be eaten by the sheeple.

I especially got a kick out of you using Krugman and Huffingrton as proof about any of his words. I guess you don't know about their attachment to the most recently exposed group of hundreds of left leaning media people. The name of that group is Journolists.

This post is filled with so much Pelosi that I would think you choked just putting it together.

Oh, yeah, a big fan of Glenn Beck's is Richard Poplawski. Do you know who that is? A "picture" of sanity and rational thought indeed

Since Beck switched to just trying to expose this administration about 2 or 3 months ago I have been waiting to hear of his demise at the hands of whoever was hired to do the job. I think they have to get rid of him and they can't do it any other way.

Glenn Beck appeals to right-wing lunatics and white supremacists such as Richard Poplawski.

Continuing to say that "this administration" is going to kill Beck for the irresponsible crap he preaches is sheer insanity. Aren't you one of those who also like to "gossip" about the Clintons having people killed too? That paranoia is getting out of hand.

Hey, get the hell out of Kansas once in awhile and see what the real world is actually like.

Actually yes. Keep going.

"If you are somebody who is like, 'Well, I just, I'm struggling and we're barely making ends meet,' I'm not paying for your dog cardiologist!" Beck said. "Not gonna do it. I'm sorry, the dog goes nighty night."

There was some discussion between Beck and his executive producer about their own dogs' medical issues, whether or not they have pet insurance, and whether the Obama administration is putting animals on par with humans.

Like so many claims in the health care debate, Beck has taken a kernel of something in the bill and spun it to an absurd conclusion.

PolitiFact | Glenn Beck claims health care bill includes insurance for dogs

"So the real question I have for you folks (Democrats): Why are veterinarians part of this health care bill?" Stearns asked.

Rep. Slaughter responded: "Have you ever heard of swine flu? Have you ever heard about food safety? Have you ever heard that 70 percent of all of the antibiotics produced in the United States are given to cattle and poultry even though they are not ill? But swine flu should make you worry a little bit, don’t you think?"
If the healthcare bill pays schooling expenses for vets, then yes, it is paying medical expenses for pets. You think college is free, and they dont need to pass college bills onto the patients when they start a medical practice?

Just more fake outrage from the left, claiming someone is wrong, while turning a blind eye to the fact they were right..
