I didn't read any of this. I just want to point out that I'm sick of the term "fear mongering" for the record. It's losing it's luster. It has become a term that attempts to punk people into agreeing with them. "Doh...geez. I don't want to be a fear monger. I better agree with this cat."

I'm sure you all care. Try not to lose any sleep over it.

Ummm...please don't insult the felines. My cats are independents, and pretty independent a that.

The rest of your post? very sensible. I agree completely. One of those meaningless terms that has outlived its usefulness. Just like "racist". Y'all can't scare us with that.

Thanks for that limerick, callmechaz. Couldn't rep you again, but it deserves it. Maybe someone else will rep you for me.

This, coming from a person who thinks that our president's name is "Hussein Obama"??? Yes, it is unbelievable, but for different reasons than you think.

This is ridiculous. Even though it was a small rally in numbers there has not been more swastikas at a rally since Nuremberg. Tin Foil hat egg heads. Just admit that it was a bunch of racist idiots who can not stand the black guy in the white house.
I listened to another commentator that said the same thing (regarding "the university of I don't remember"). It turns out that Michelle Malkin gave that number of 1.7 million. That's why Beck couldn't remember, because there is NO university that gave that number. Also, you are spot-on with the "bunch of racist idiots who cannot stand the black guy in the the White House." I have no idea why they don't just come out and admit it.

In my opinion, Obama has gone WAAAY too far trying to supplicate the right-wing haters, to the point of starting to alienate his supporters, which happen to be the majority of this country, or at least WERE the majority of this country who got him elected. My advice for him is to stay the course and let Beck and the other ignoramuses bury themselves with their own ignorance. Get the job done and don't look back. We need progress in our country, not a bunch of right-wing, "take us back to the Dark Ages" fear and hate-mongers. Let them go back to the Dark Ages where they belong while the rest of us move forward and join the other countries who are now surpassing us. We better get with it - and soon!!!

Didn't you watch and listen to Olberman. He told you where he got the number.

Oh, yes. roy, do you know why Beck didn't show up at the march? I mean he did organize it, didn't he? Or was that freedomworks? Where was Beck on the day of the rally? Was he there? As probably Beck's number one fan, I thought you could shed some light on these questions for me.

thanks.

Folks need to calm down and mellow out, and please for the millionth time... do not make this personal and about each other, stay on topic. This is not a request.

You're wrong, this is America and someone who goes out gets a life for themselves deserves more than 10 times a lazy ass does.

Maybe, just maybe, because it isn't true?

What a clever spin. Figures, the left will find a way to explain the reason for Obama's decline in popularity other than giving credit to his supporters for beginning to see the light

... Let them go back to the Dark Ages where they belong while the rest of us move forward
I see that honest differences in opinion and prespective are not welcome.
Of course, we already knew that, but if the frequent reminders and name calling are meant to dissuade or discourage, it won't work. Try reason.
