How much of his personal words did you hear? I say darned little, if any. You are taking your knowledge from the MSM and left leaning websites.

For some reason I didn't hear Beck trying to outdo King and little about King at all. Of course, you watched on TV with bated breath, didn't you?
If there was a reward offered for finding things that are 'bad' with Beck, there would be a lot more millionaires out there.

I'm just pointing out that I would trust and believe in MLK long before I'd even give Beck a snippet of my time and energy.

I'm not comparing Obama to anyone, or anything. You're the one doing that.

And no, I didn't watch. I don't have cable or anything along those lines and I don't waste my time with talk show hosts that think they know what they're talking about.

I beg to differ. Beck knows full well that he is preaching gibberish. Sadly, his fans do not.

Think they know what they're talking about? Can you throw out something other than your word to prove that he doesn't know what he is talking about? Why has he not been sued by Obama and his people for all the lies you and others charge him with? Somehow it seems to me that he knows a lot more than most of you haters really know.

I don't agree with all that Beck says but I see a lot more truth in most of it than untruth. Oh my, I just lumped myself with him as an unknowing fool or whatever feels good to you as a name for Beck and me.

Atheists and other secular progressives can talk like that when they don't know what he is saying except for what they read from Media Matters, ThinkProgress and other sites that were created to destroy him, if they could. So far they haven't been able to hurt him a lot but they keep on spinning.

Sheesh. Seriously. Quit drinking your Messiah Beck's kool aid.

He can lie all he wants...he a freakin TALK SHOW HOST. That's what they do! They lie, they slander, they misinform to get HIGHER RATINGS, do you not get that? And it's not the 'untruth', but rather the sprinkling of untruths in a talk about the truth. By sneaking in the lies, and then padding them with truth it makes it easier for people to believe what he's saying.

No, I don't trust ANY talk show hosts, left right or otherwise.

The link will have to be from Daily Kos or Media Matters, I bet.

Not one of these lefties was in attendance the other day and I bet all of them will call you a Beckian liar if you tell them anything about what it was like. I guess you better not do it or you will be called all kinds of names with liar being the main one.

As much as I was able to stand without my mind wandering to more interesting and original subjects, like whether or not Sookie Stackhouse really is a fairy.

Why is it that you people throw the lie word around all the time and never manage to show any examples of the lies? Yes, I know you get you info from the left websites since to hear him talk would be a horrible sin and, anyway, your sources are so much more truthful than he is.

Go ahead shouting lies, without examples and rest assured that there are many who think you are doing it just as it should be done.
