Beck now calling Obama a racist who hates white people....

It's time for people to start boycotting Fox News and contacting every company that advertising on their channel and saying they aren't going to put up with this garbage anymore. It's time for "news" channels to start reporting the real news and quit with their shock entertainment. Fox News is closer to A Current Affair than they are to an actual news network. I'm not saying Fox News is the only media outlet that needs to stop their stupidity but they are leading the pack with the hate and fear mongering. They allow people to come onto their network who spew lies and negativity and unknowing viewers think they are seeing the truth. They put people like birthers on their shows and then ignorant people show up at town hall meetings shouting the things they have heard like they are horrifying facts. It's nuts and is totally out of control...

Beck is an entertainer our for his $$$.

Lots of folks out there that hate Obama, but no where close to the hate and venom spewed by the media and citizens towards Bush.. How soon some people forget....

Apparently you haven't watched Fox News lately. That station is nothing but 24/7 Obama hatred but maybe that's why you believe that everybody was much meaner to Bush. Somebody on Fox News said it so it must be true.
And let's not forget that the reason so many people were angry with Bush is because he flushed our country down the toilet with an unjust war and multiple screw ups.... People had a real good reason for not liking his ignorant behind.

Yep, just another entertainer turned "newsman". Give me a break. And people actually believe his tripe.

The right hates Obama for the same reasons the left hates Bush... Because he's ignorant and sending us down the tubes even farther than Bush did...

Is this really any worse the crap Bill Mayer spews out on HBO? Since I don't have cable or satelite (God forbid in this world I know) I don't see him often but when I do, I am shocked that people actually buy his BS. The last time I saw him (which was a while ago I imagine) he was talking about how the government should regulate religion. I was hoping speaking in jest until he started going on how religion is the great evil of civilization and was the result of 90% of our problems. Is this really worse than Beck??? I can't stand either of the idiots but I certainly won't give Mayer the benefit of saying he is not as big of a jerk as Beck?

If you don't see this, I would have to believe just as you are accusing Lucas McCain of finding Beck tolerable due to Lucas's conservative views, you find Mayer tolerable due to your liberal views. Personally, both Mayer and Beck both make me want to puke.

Even though I don't agree with Bill on some of his religious views, I do relate to much of what he talks about. The difference between Bill and Glenn is Glenn is on a so called "news" channel and Bill is a comedian. Big difference there.

Whats funny is I rarely watch FoxNews and never listen to Beck...

Really? So where do you get your news? The internet? I see you use lots of stuff from a conservative website...

I use several sources then MAKE MY OWN DECISION on the topic.. I don't blindly follow anyone.. Like I said before ALL the presidents we've had since Reagan have been terrible... Obama is just the worst of the bad............

I do the same thing Lucas. I watch TV, read newspapers, follow online discussions, etc.. I do not "blindly follow" anyone. Is that what you are implying here? I've seen you post things on here that were directly from chain emails, etc. and you posted them as the truth. Wouldn't you call that blindly following? Just curious.

I call it blindly following if you are FOR or AGAINST something or some issue without knowing the FACTS or NON-FACTS... I know it's real hard to find out the truth about an issue, any issue, politics is the worst.. The only chain letter I've ever posted(other than a rebuttal letter to a posted chain letter) was today... I should have only included the page numbers of the bill... Then folks could just read the page and decide for themselves without a left or right spin... That's what I did..

An Open Letter To Certain "Liberals"
Dear American liberals, leftists, social progressives, socialists, Marxists, Obama supporters, et al:

We have stuck together since the late 1950’s, but the whole of this latest election process has made me realize that I want a divorce. I know we tolerated each other for many years for the sake of future generations, but sadly, this relationship has run its course. Our two ideological sides of America cannot, and will not ever agree on what is right, so let’s just end it on friendly terms. We can smile, chalk it up to irreconcilable differences, and go our own way…

2. You cannot help small men by tearing down big men.
3. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong.

4. You cannot lift the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer.

This sorta stuff comes from right wing emails or right wing blogs. And I looked at the bill and like Ja'far, I didn't find the things that that silly email said. I believe nothing I receive in those from either side. Same with websites and blogs. My mom taught me to believe nothing I hear and half I see. It's a good policy. As far as following the facts. As I said before, I don't blindly follow anything. You believed the points that email had before you checked them out. You have to follow your own advice Lucas.

You really need to pay closer attention.. Read my post about the chain letters.. The letters were rebuttal letters to the ones posted by YOU... The open letter to certain liberals was posted in response to YOUR letter to conservatives.. Obamas accomplishment letter was posted in response to YOUR letter of his phony accomplishments... The last letter you quoted is a list of truisms thats been published many times that I DO agree with... I also posted other points that included the EXACT wording of the bill.. You and Ja'Far can spin them any way that makes you comfortable.....

Those were not "phony accomplishments" Lucas. He really did all that stuff. And actually, I thought I responded to a previous thread where you said that he hasn't kept any of his promises. I started a new thread about the things he had done and accomplished (trying to be positive, which I know you can't stand). And the only thing that is currently spinning is you. I read the bill, apparently you didn't before you posted that batch of lies in some neo-con freeper forwarded email. READ THE BILL. That stuff isn't in there Lucas, no matter how you spin it...

If you have read the bill maybe you can explain some things to me.. To make it easy for you, READ the post where I included the exact wording of the bill and tell me how you interpret them in your own words, not with liberal talking points... Good luck...

Careful, everyone. Let's not get personal.

Oppsie!

Not trying to be personal.. How about you Annie.. Can you explain some of the bill to me.. I asked tons of people who are for it but they can't tell me why.. The bill DOES contain some needed changes in health care but are you ready for full government control.. And before you say it won't be government controlled, then what aspect of health care will they not control????

I thought that Ja'far did a great job of explaining this in the healthcare thread. My wording isn't going to beat his.

Ditto...

As well thought out and eloquently worded Ja'Far's response was it contained nothing about the actual health care issues of the bill. Only the insurance issue... So both you lady's prefer to let someone else explain how you feel about the issues mentioned???

I have no problem with it considering that I agree with his stance. What's the point of me writing a response when Ja'far already made his case perfectly? Most of my posts fall on death ears anyway.

Even if his stance has no chance of happening under Obama's plan??
