Please direct me to any recording, or anything in print, where he promotes a third party and I’ll concede.

He does state that HIS beliefs are more and more Libertarian every day, but he has often stated that he does not support the Libertarian party. He’s a conservative independent, with Libertarian values (and not the wacky ones, like legalizing drugs). If you’re for smaller government and freedom to live your life as you please, then you also have Libertarian values.

"Please direct me to any recording, or anything in print, where he (Beck) promotes a third party, and I'll concede."

Please direct me to any post, or anything in print where I said he promotes a specific third party. What he does is to subtly and sometimes not-so-subtly promote ANY amorphous third, fourth or twentieth party as long as it isn't Republican or Democrat.

He also regularly adds to these opinions regular overt suggestions of moral equivalency between the Republican and Democrat parties.

Now, I'm an American first, a conservative second and a Republican third.....but to equalize the two major parties is false and misleading.

This is like saying a religious denomination is the moral equivalent of an atheistic cult because of corrupt, evil ministers or priests within its ranks.

Our job is to CLEAN UP the Republican party, rid it of its bad ministers and priests and restore it to its basic tenents. Throwing the Republican party out with the bathwater because it's the "moral equivalency" of the the Dim party is not the answer.

Third, fourth or twentieth parties never win.....so what is Beck's alternative to doing battle with the evil Democrat party? Throw in the towel and end up with divided ranks all searching for an alternative party?

I just stated my hoped-for solution above. What is Glenn's?
