This is the second post in less than 10 minutes where I've read someone saying the 2nd amendment covers free speech - and you people claim to have read the Constitution? Here's a link - read it and make sure you know what you're talking about next time you put fingers to keyboard.

Beck is a nut, but he is stable. Most of all he is an entertainer, who happens to have some nuggets of truth in his prolific rhetoric. That in itself is entertainment! Culling out the nuggets.... He happens to be right on concerning the Empty Vessel in Chief and his cronies tearing down our nation and culture. I look forward to the day when they are driven back to the Underworld of Chicago, thug wannabes and curs, with their tails between their legs.

That statement doesn't even make sense Flyboy. Why would you want to attack and smear an recovering alcoholic?

Does saying he is a crackhead and a drunk make you feel better somehow? I just don't get it.

And the left says that the right are the hateful ones!

And where are your FACTS that he smokes crack and drinks before going to work?

No logical thinking person would get on national television and say some of the things beck has, which means to me, and possibly others, that the man has personal strife, he definitely has a problem, and needs help. I look foreward to seeing him check himself into a rehab center in the future, either that, or a home where they care for the mentally ill.
and, quit trolling to my responses to other posts.

It's the typical LEFT tactic David. The left will smear, accuse, curse, or whatever to get their point across even though they have no leg to stand on.

Sad.

The left whines and cries about the ones they fear the most, I have never heard beck or Limbaugh, I guess they would say the same about Mark Levine who i do listen to on the way home from work.
I do not understand why the left promotes these people so much if they hate them so much.
I would think it has to be fear. they want to make people scared of Rush and Beck.
do they not realize that the more the promote hate of these guys the higher their ratings go?
If the left hates them so much why does the left hatred of them drive the ratings for them higher and higher.
Left screams Beck is a liar, becks ratings go higher yet i do not even see one quote from the left where Beck has lied. Since i do not listen to him you would think the left would print his lies instead of whining about lies in general.

LOL, I saw that in the other thread...that poster does have a good point about you though...facts are facts.

And here you are again, saying Beck needs to be in a mentally ill home. How do you know he has personal strife? Are you a medical doctor now?

Also, no logical person would promise the things Obama has promised, but hey, he's in the WH now... is he also ill?

Qualifies as anti-Beck, wouldn't you agree?
Besides, BO has been invited to chat with GB on Fox.......but doesn't want to because why?
Is he scared of Glenn's mental state?
Is he worried that Glenn might cry or fall off the wagon?
I seriously doubt it and think it's something he's afraid to do for some underlying reason.
I have not heard BO mention Beck's name, but then again I don't watch too many of his speeches, just the big ones like the State of The Union etc because he is the president of the Unites States.

Why won't he have an interview with someone who is openly anti-Obama?? hmmmm...well, why do you think? Why do you think Bush declined a public debate with Bill Maher, Saddam Hussain and Ahmadinejad, but he invited Limbaugh to the White House? Why do you think?

It's a 2 way street now. I complain about beck, and you complain about President Obama.
