Beck gave an entertaining speech the other night at CPAC. Some very emotional parts that touched the hearts of many Americans.
If your a regular listener to him on radio you understand how he attacks both parties as the same.
This is why as much as you love him, hang on every word he may be the greatest asset to the Obama's agenda.(Ironic)
If we use a utopian view (unrealistic) of party to fracture ourselves we are doomed.
There is no perfect party the American people have spoke out and over the past year the Republicans are listening and the ones who haven't or have such fractured past in support of big government policies like a McCain they must be defeated.
But on the flip side how come Beck didnt speak in support of the ones who have always been resolute and are the future leaders of the conservative movement?(Rubio, Demint, Bachmann,Pence)
I am sorry Glenn while I am a free market capitalist and think every American should have the right to make as much as someone is willing to pay you seem to be supporting a strategy that will lead to a loss of freedom and opportunity for me and my family which I cannot afford.
I dont have millions saved up to weather a storm that will come about if Obama's policies survive based on splitting the Republican vote.
I will follow the principles of our founding and free market principles to the end what I will not do is follow a talk show host off the cliff whatever his motives; good or bad.
If you are for a third party just come out and say it instead of trying to steer your audience.
Isn't that your motto" speak without fear speak the truth". Are you a third party supporter or not?
I am sorry folks I know many of you on this site are very sensitive to any criticism of Beck but its not about him its about the future existence of our way of life and the strategy for defeating Obama's policies.
When you begin worshipping the messenger and not the message we become vulnerable for a fall and in this case that involve losing our way of life.
Beck chose to use his hour speech to attack Republicans collectively many are the same ones who are listening to the American people.
If we dont win this battle in November and refuse to unify all republicans based on conservative values we will never again have the opportunity for the long fight of reversing this progressive assault on our Constitution he emphasizes on a daily basis.
This country is not about one man or personality as is currently the case of the left it is based on the principles of our founding period.
We cant afford to split apart in order to massage someone's ego we need to unite to fight the enemies of liberty; the current power base of the democrat party this November.
We cant afford to lose this political battle keep your eye on your principles and goals ; less on the messanger especially ones who are drawn to the letter "I".
Give it up. Democrats are toast. YOU are trying to split the vote. Beck is over target and taking flack.
Did Glenn shed his trademark Crocodile Tears?
ahem...I think you meant “paring”.
Cutting not coupling, no?
Pairing or Paring? or Peering?
Pinging the COMRADES
"We cant afford to split apart in order to massage someone's ego we need to unite to fight the enemies of liberty; the current power base of the democrat party this November."
Now I am not likely to follow anyone on the radio, I prefer to make up my own mind on who to vote for....
But with respects, I don't see anything that the Republicans throw up with a spine to stand up to these idiot democrats. They capitulate on everything and refuse to take a stand and get stonewalled (even when they were in the majority) they continually bend over and force us to pay for their lack of spine.
peeing?
Except for one thing, Beck is ardently anti-third party.
We have enough to do getting quality Conservatives lined up.
Beck is not about a third party. He is making the point that there are liberals/Progressives in the Republican party too. We all know many examples. If Conservatives are not in control of the Republican party, at best we only slow down the march to Socialism/Fascism. Conservatives can attain control through the primary process. Go JD Hayworth. I will tell you, too, that the election of Michael Castle to the Senate in Delaware is as useful as Biden’s son. It is true that he will vote for a Republican leader and when everybody else is voting Republican, so will he, but the first hard, close vote that comes along when you really need his vote, he’ll be right there with the Democrats. Beck would ask, what’s that doin’ for us?
Is this a vanity or are you posting an article? It’s not clear.
The key is to infiltrate and drive those parties to the right.
the ‘94 revolution turned Clinton to the right. Expunging the socialists and commies from both major parties is the clearest path to victory.
When has his spoken out against the 3rd party?
Beck is ardently anti-third party.
Baloney, I don’t believe that for a minute. He is a Libertarian, last time I checked, Libertarians are third party. I don’t trust him.
Maybe you should take the time to read my posts. Yes there are some typos but you will see where I stand. This worship of one radio host needs to stop its childish its not about him its about our future.
I wonder how many people said about Reagan "I will not follow an actor off the cliff whatever his motives". Come to think of it didn't Reagan have a radio show too?
Still don't even know who the hell is running anyways so it's kind of fruitless to start saying we're splitting the vote. For all we know the GOP could try to run McCain again. Or the GOP could go Dede Scozzafava trying to bring in those left wingers. Could be Mitt "Obamacare lite" Romney. Could be Mike "I don't know when to bow out" Huckabee.
Sorry but I'm done with parties. I'm voting for the best candidate period. If he comes from the GOP that's great. If not well I'm done with the GOP because it'd be obvious they couldn't learn from their mistakes.
On his show, quite a while back ...
Isn’t the question you ask — When has Beck supported a third party? And isn’t that the reason the article doesn’t state when or have facts ...
Personally, after Perot we should have all learned, that is not the way.
Until the Republicans start acting like Republicans and not Democrat lite I will not support any of them. Period!
I have had so many years of the same bull promised over and over and over. I refuse to back the McCain's and now Crist's of this world again just because someone is worried about electing a party name.
It means nothing to me if they say they are Republican and in the next breath say the stimulus worked or that we need cap and trade.
