“It doesn’t work that way. We (the Republicans) have to own up to our historical role in this process of SPENDING America into bankruptcy.”

Absolutely. Luckily all of the spending since then has been Democrat owned and has shown anyone who is intellectually honest that it can’t continue no matter what party affiliation. But... to say that Republicans & Democrats are pretty much the same is also intellectually dishonest.

You’re right that Beck goes overboard in saying there’s no difference between the parties but still, the Republicans are bringing that kind of criticism on themselves to the degree that they “play ball”. Now, lately they’ve been doing a good job of NOT playing ball, esp on MengeleCare, but do you really trust them? Do you really think that we can now say, “the Republicans are cured and won’t be abysmally stupid anymore”? No, we can’t say that. Even about the “good” ones.

Which is what makes what Beck is doing so important. Keeping the Republicans feet to the fire. Somebody’s got to do it.

What’s the alternative? Going back to voting for the “better of two evils”?

Forget that. Until Beck comes out and supports a 3rd party, I say: Go, Beck.
