If he is, he is a Repubic.
Those who attack Beck from “the right” seem to be defending the RINO establishment.
I don’t care. I’m not.
I think he calls himself a ‘centrist libertarian’ (whatever the heck that means).
Read the same article- lives in a "Green" house? So what-I'm considering solar panels for my house for various reasons.
Man may have contributed slighty to GW? It's possible anyway, can't tell for sure until we get the politics out of science. I haven't seen him rant or rave about it, so what?
So he matches the charitable contributions of his employees and his employees choose the charities they want. MY GOD - THE HUMANITY!
Just saying, so what?
Beck is only defending his bank account.
He will continue to be the class clown, always craving attention. So, yes he will continue to disrupt.
Yeah, I heard Levin’s resume on his show-
A little self-interested. Needing to promote himself in an effort to show he’s been down for the struggle...
Levins sounds a little more like Sharpton and Jackson then Mark Levin himself last couple days..
“he wanted the distinctions to be clear, he wanted to promote our principles, and he wanted to contrast them with those who either had no principles or were promoting something else”
What if we lived in a world where there wasn’t a clear distinction between the major parties? Or at least not to people who had principles other than growing the government slower than the other guy and policing the world. Hard to promote your principles via a mechanism controlled by people with whom you disagree.
What Levin ought to be doing here is telling us how Republicans are still—or still could be—Reagan Republicans. Instead, it’s all about Beck’s manners and unity and blah, blah, blah. Which is all well and good if Levin’s right. But I don’t have much reason to think he is. And certainly, he doesn’t explain why he thinks Republicans have any principles.
My guess is we’ll end up with nothing better than another Nixon or Bush, which is not good enough. Unless this Bush can do what the other Bush couldn’t. Namely, “privatize” entitlement programs. But Bush didn’t, so why should we expect another Bush to?
Giving progressive and liberal groups is charity? That’s what they also called giving to groups that were financing terrorism.
please. What media personality isn’t?
“Beck stinks. Buy my book! I promise no nasally voice in the book”
Its weird. The guy pounds away day after day promoting the constitution as our touchstone and our path forward, basically channeling the very things my dad used to tell me, and catches a hailstorm for it... but not just from the Obamists.
Similarly, Sarah has managed to stick a wrench in the Obamists agenda and gets savaged for it... but not just by the Obamists.
Ive got a feeling were hearing from that part of the GOP my daddy warned me about. Its like the old saw; you throw a shoe over the fence, and the dog that yelps is the dog you hit.
You just made that snarky comment about attacking fellow Republicans, but don't care if Beck is one or not. You're as wishy-washy as Beck himself! Wait a minute. Are you Glenn Beck?
“Levin had already been an elected official and a law school graduate by 22 years old.
That would be right around the time Beck was getting loaded so he could get sober some years later”
Blah, blah, blah. What’s your point? Levin is smarter? Fine. So what? If I want to learn something, I read a book. Levin and Beck make a living through info-tainment and agit-prop, not elightenment. They rabble rouse, if they do anything, and Beck’s better at it.
I love Levin — I’ve been a fan for years, I listen to his show every night while making dinner, I’ve bought and read his books — but this Beck obsession is burning him up. It’s bringing out a very ugly side of him. He’s doing more to turn us against each other than Beck ever has.
Mark is just doing what needs to be done. What others are unwilling to do.
So you think capitalism is a bad thing?
A centrist-libertarian does not sound even remotely like a conservative.
“The advantage of securing a Congressional Declaration of War, is that if a liberal votes for a Declaration of War as per the Constitution, he can’t very well go back after the fact and wail, ‘IT’S BUSH’S FAULT!!’ Hey, buddy — you said ‘WAR’ and you voted for it, capische?”
We still should be able to do so. First of all, everyone knows what the non-declaration declerations mean. Secondly, whatever it is they were voting on, they knew, we knew, and Bush knew were meant to give Bush the green light. Nonetheless, libs will proceed to blame Bush for what happened, and the public will bite or not. Most often bite, since the president asked for it and he is the commander in chief.
Your right.
The attacks on Glenn Beck seem to be coming straight from the country club. The same RINO’s who attack Ann Coulter and Sarah Palin.
