Thanks. I should have explained a bit more. I assume leftist moles on FR. But when I look through some of these people that blast Beck so hard, they seem to espouse conservative positions. It doesn’t make sense.

I understand someone being annoyed with his style because it does kinda annoy me too. But to claim to be a conservative and despise him and his message? That’s BS. Mr. Beck is an extremely valuable part of the conservative landscape. (This conversation makes me miss Mr. Breitbart.)

Anyways, thanks for your reply and your welcome.

PS. In off FR discussions, I see those phony moderates (shudder!) dismiss Fox News as “the right wing equivalent of MSNBC”. In other words, they are willing to acknowledge the nuttiness of MSNBC but they despise Fox News and compulsively seek to discredit them. I notice people doing the same to Mr. Beck. “The right wing equivalent of Michael Moore.” Sure... Red flags go up when I see that.

Most of them are quite clever at pretending to be conservative. It’s coming down to the wire and their god Hussein is in trouble. They’re getting desperate.

Occam — Among competing hypotheses, the hypothesis with the fewest assumptions should be selected.

Beck isn’t a Conservative. He supports the absolute undermining of the family by supporting gay marriage.

I listened to beck for ther last few years and his tone seemed to really shift after Breitbart was “breitbarted”, he seemed to get a lot more serious and seemed to double down on his news efforts..

I think it really spooked him for some reason and we all know deep down WHY.

See, that's debatable. To me, an "extremely valuable part of the conservative landscape" doesn't cave to queer marriage. Beck did, saying it's about freedom and the principle of it is right.

If Beck has proof, he needs to just lay it out and be done with it. He's done some worthy stuff in the past, and this SEEMS to fall under that category. He's also engaged in a lot of histrionics that came to nothing. If THIS falls into the former category, I'll applaud him.

But that's not enough for some folks, in whom Beck seems to inspire some kind of manic devotion. The other night I saw a Freeper angrily accuse another of "not liking Glenn." SO WHAT? When did cults of personality become requisite for conservatives?

Like I said, I give him credit for his effort here, but I still think he's a drama queen, and weepy and effeminate in a way a man shouldn't be. (shrug)

Take heart, people used to dislike (put it mildly) Andrew Breibart, too.

So, there!
