What about Lou Dobbs? Beck says the same thing Dobbs has been saying for 30 years. I never heard anyone complain about him. (dobbs got a little crazy with the birther stuff, which Beck doesn't believe)

What about Patrick Buchanon when he was on CNN?

What about Tucker Carlson when he was on MSNBC?

Why is it only when a liberatarian or conservative shows up on FOX do they become crazy and dangerous?

No one on the left learned how to think for themselves. Liberalism is a mental disorder.
Only b/c what he saying now during a national crisis is both stupid and irresponsible, especially since some of the stuff does not make sense to a THINKING person

So I never hear any cons. condemming any of these comments. Cons. see no problem with comments like those. That is a problem. At least I think so. That show reaches a wide audience in SC. The Mike Gallagher show comes on right after it and he knows what they said and by his silence he agrees.

Does'nt SC have enough probelms already?

Anyone who says / implies / suggests that Beck (or any other media person) should be "taken off the air", is either not an American or is Anti-American.

Just because I'm curious (I don't watch his show) what is it that Beck is saying in this time of national crisis that you consider stupid, irresponsible, and not sensible to a thinking person?

ok, his BS about telling church going people about walking out if "social justice" is mentioned. Fairness to others is the basics to most if not all religions and for him to have the audacity to tell people to leave their place of worship based upon his word makes him stupid, irresponsible and not sensible to the thinking person. I don't know what your beliefs are but as a human I KNOW that you cannot cosign to that madness which basically states that "you are not smart to think on your own so let me think for you"

Although I can't stand the man with the fake tears, I will defend his right to spout stupid nonsense throughout the air waves

Wow, trick poll! You ask two completely different questions:

* should he be taken off the air? (my response: NO, I believe in free speech)

* is he nuts? (my response: YES, it's obvious.)

Since your thread title was misleading I voted NO and then saw that your poll asked a different question from the one in the thread title.

By the way, it's Glenn, not Glen. And he's nuts. He calls himself a recovering alcoholic. I call him an alcoholic who probably fell off the wagon a few years ago. I've never seen anyone in AA who was that crazy.

I've never seen such a concentration of judgmental people in one place, driven by fear and hate, unable to discuss rationally without name-calling.

No one should be taken off the air, but the man is a big dope and I have no use for him. He has become worse than Rush and Hannity. He is indeed the worst of the neo-con blowhards.
