"Good at what??"
What is Glenn Beck's "talent" supposed to be,exactly?

Complaining?
Whining?
Personal attacks?

If THOSE items are his "talent" then I suppose he could be considered by some to be "good."

Oh wait, wasn't there a thread by you complaining about Medicare benefits being cut so taxes wouldn't be raised?

You didn't watch even 30 seconds of this one, but then I knew you wouldn't. Forced ignorance is such a sad thing to witness.

I think that the only one who has seen the show today replied with some intelligent remarks about this one but then you are so up on the history of Israel that you don't need to watch things like this.

I tried to stomach his show yesterday and had to laugh at the end. The show appeared to be huge propaganda special on how there is this line drawn in the sand on people that supported the man on the moon vs woodstock. Are you kidding me?? What's it been 40 years? times are different we now have a third of the country is in the middle. He also had this chalk board up with rules on how to live and treat each other. #4 "take care of each other" I had to laugh since the GOP's have voted against almost every single bill. "Take care of each other" this coming from someone in the GOP camp that does not offer solutions to long term unemployment or a job policy for the lower/middle class and has voted against extending deadlines every time! Did we forget Bush started extensions at 6% and now you want to stop them at 10%?

I really tried to get my head around his show and give it a chance, but he just seemed to be reaching the entire show. I can see how his voice could be hypnotic to some. A bit scary considering he talks to his audience like they are in kindergarten.

Not so at all. Just trying to allow you to know some real truth but you are afraid to learn since it didn't come from a prog.

Great job of telling me that you are still in the same state of knowing about Israel and its history that you were before you opened this thread. Wouldn't you like to learn something now and then? You could from today's Beck show but you are afraid it might not appear like what you have been told about him.

Now just what critical thoughts do you have about the lesson Beck taught today? You didn't watch when it would have taken only 18 minutes to get the meat of things? I wonder just what it is that you are afraid of.
