Except Beck is a libertarian and that was not exactly how he said, I know I watched the interview, he said he had other issues to cover, he is letting other people take on social issues, he feels getting people back to the constitution and God is where his drive is going.........
You're funny. In fact, it's quite funny to see all the "don't-offer-critiques-about Beck" crowd this past year.
First in 2009 into 2010, they told us, "Hey, stay off 'religious' stuff with Beck. For the most part he does, so stick to politics and social issues."
It'd actually be "fun" to go back to October '09 threads on FR & pull out all the FReepers who took this tactic.
Then once Beck himself launched full-blown into the "religious stuff" this year, of course the FR parsing about Beck's version of religious revivalism had to change. So now you're telling us, "Hey, stay off the 'social issues' when critiquing Beck. He's just dealing with politics and religion."
Well, AC, haven't you ever seen the word "socio-political"??? Politics is all about sociology!!! (Or haven't you ever taken any high school or university sociology course on politics???)
If you 'cede the social issues ground to the liberals, then only their cultural warriors can address the family, marriage, peer-to-peer influence, crime, abortion, all sex-based issues, and even the other side's socialism.
I mean please. Stop insulting our intelligence. It's maddening!!!
