Greeting's,

It may be most accurate to state that the current U. S. political climate is indeed "Chilling" and undeniably "Volatile".....

Many uncertanties plague the American People at this time. Confidence in our elected officials and their ability to apply effective leadership is in question.....

As many of us are aware America has been experiencing a dismal Washington political leadership vacumm for at least the last 25 years.....
Unfortunately this debacle continues to be a matter of course in 2009 !

Decisions desperately need to be made to address the many dangerous problems this great republic is experiencing from within and without !

It' time to immediately cease the insidious and destructive "Politics As
Usual" Idealogy that continues to be SOP... despite the horrendous
state our beloved nation finds itself in at this point in our history.

This nation desperately needs to "Regroup" and establish a most "Resolute
Unity"..... to solve these nation destroying problems before they completely destroy our America !!!

It's absolutely unthinkable that the America many of us have known and loved for so long could possibly be experiencing the dire uncertainty and ever approaching level of heartbreaking "Chaos" that defines our status today.....

It matters not who the current Washington Administration occupants are..... The one vitally important matter lies before us..... Mark it "Urgent"...... So urgent that "ALL"of us who love this great nation must
quickly and eagerly work together the restore America to her rightful place on the world stage.... End the "Political Games"...... Let the dynamic resurrection of the most unique nation on earth begin......

Thank You M/S1

This tiered old shtick of your, that the reason people disagree with you is because they are ignorant is old, tired and soooo predictable. I know damn well what I am speaking of.

I have only watched four Glen Beck shows in my life, I know next to nothing about him. The only reason I was curious enough to watch his show was because of looney tunes like you who go into fits of rage at the mere mention of his name. Just go peddle your insults, sarcasm and liberal hatred some place else.
How absolutely typical.

In the rest of my "rant" I addressed at great length your silly examples of things Beck said that you insisted were not misleading. I showed you that they patently are and suggested you and others like you go to the original sources (Obama's speech on video, HR 3200, InsideDefense.com) -- gave links to them even. Naturally, you call facts "hate" and a "rant". Is it because you're afraid, or dont really like to read much or what?

Anyway, have fun blundering around in the dark, with only the light of your television to guide you.

Everything you list has been denied by the WH and debunked by independent people much smarter than you.

Hint: you're listening to too much Glenn Beck.

That's an interesting observation.

So why do we want to spend money we don't have for a public option most people don't want when the CBO says it won't save a dime?

For future reference, please don't use the words smart and White House together in the same sentence. It makes you appear intellectually lazy and shows you haven't really done your homework.

"Smarter" modifies "people", which is also modified by "independent". "Smarter" does not modify "WH". Knowledge of basic grammatical functions can help one understand the meaning of a sentence, which is important if one wants to chastise others for what they write without looking moronic.

I said don't use smart and White House in the same sentence. Try to keep up.

Got an answer for my question?

Were you paying attention during the election? He gave more specific info than any other candidate out there:
None of the presidential candidates had more specific plans than Ron Paul. Easy to forget when the media ignored him for so long.

Thank you, Mr. Godwin, but take even one small baby step back and you will see that the right-wing in its determination simply to oppose whatever it is that the administration is seeking to do is running NOTHING BUT a tired old Fear Campaign. The very same people who convinced you be afraid, very afraid that proof of their claims of WMD might come in the form of a mushroom cloud are now rattling their chains in hopes of frightening you out of supporting long-overdue health care and energy reform that will actually be good for YOU but perhaps bad for THEM and their own beyond-lucratrive financial interests. Wake the hell up and realize that these phonies are trying to use a simple, reptilian fear factor to manipulate you to work against your own best interests, and you are letting them do it. What the hell is wrong with you?

Thanks, <Art123>. A rep will have to wait for another time, but it is always good to see feeble logic pointed out, and Lord knows there is a great need for that around these parts!!!
