Putting him on every day seemed a rather odd strategy. People will watch this kind of silliness maybe once a week, but every freaking day? Sometimes less is more.

Actually, that's my opinion of news TV channels in general. When the news was on once or twice a day, I used to make time to sit down and watch. Now I generally don't bother.

The only time I ever hear about Beck is when my liberal friends comment on him. Thanks for keeping us updated, Jon!!! :thumb:

I never heard of or watched him till I read about him here. I watched him a couple of times and didn't particularly like his style or presentation method. Never watched him again.

I could actually say the same thing about Olbermann...

and admiration while breaking down over even the slightest bit of criticism.

Same here (except the part about watching him).

I only ever heard about Beck and Oberman when they made the news for something outrageous. Or if their resident fanbois posted something about them here.

Olberman? Wasn't he a Nazi war criminal?

Both Olberman and Beck are descended from Germans.

Coincidence?

You be the judge.

Anyone who can cause lefties to spend so much time and effort hating them is doing something right.


The guy who wrote that article is to be blunt, a liar. The entire piece is spun to accommodate his own personal ideological viewpoint, and he twists and lies in order to accomplish his agenda. Biggest pile of tripe I've read today.

As Beck would no doubt say 'that's almost exactly what they said about Hitler'

F*ck you.

The curse, "F*ck you" comes across as hate filled language. A year ago I hurled a similar curse - "why don't you go f*ck yourself" - at a deserving poster over at Fat Shirley's. I was then asked by another poster "Why so much hate?"

So why so much hate over ridiculing Beck?

I was racking my brains trying to remember where I'd heard that, and there it was staring me right in the face.

Good. I believe in getting things out of your system. Did you answer the question?

He used up all his get out of jail free cards the other day, as far as I'm concerned.

He's already lost his country because of the sh!t for brains ideology that he holds. As far as I'm concerned, after what he said the other day, he can keep his f*cking opinion to himself.
