Yes, that bothers me too. Some are the same. Some are not. Coburn and Inhofe are not at all like Reid and Pelosi—just for instance. No, Beck is losing his way. And I’m not longer that much of a fan.
I have yet to figure out what accomplishments Bill Bennett has made in his life. Under Reagan, he was Secretary of Education. Unions got stronger, school choice went nowhere, and education continued its descent. Maybe Bill was gambling instead of doing anything.
But I even wondered at the time what his accomplishments were as that Secretary. At the time my daughters were in catholic schools. I was paying tuition and enormous property taxes, with no help—not even a lousy tax deduction.
Now that his gambling problem came to light, I have no reason to put any stock whatsoever into anything he says.
Boy, ain’t that the truth....you know, I heard him one time just profligating on how he was mistreated at the hospital for something and how what a ‘terrible’ experience he had and how it had shaken him to the very core of his being about the treatment. I finally concluded that he’d been there for his ‘roids’ and I guess he didnt’ like the treatment of his delicate condition......yes, a pussy....still, I like other things he has to say.
My bet is that Rush comes out Monday backing what Glenn said 100%....
There is no difference between those you mentioned they are all true believers in their respective causes. Would that we had more true believers in conservative principles.
- The Federal Government's current disdain and treatment of We The People is starting to echo Parliament's disdain and treatment of the Colonists in the 1760s and 1770's
- The Federal Government's current tin ear to States Rights issues are starting to echo the tin ear to States in the 1850s
- The Federal Government's heavy-handed fiscal and social policies are starting to echo failed policies of the 1930s
1775, 1861, 1938... ring any bells Bill??
I interpreted his remarks as claiming the *results* are the same.
IIRC he did not identify or malign any conservative GOP politicians.
We are in this crisis because the Democrats caused it and the GOP did not prevent it. Same result.
Last night, Glenn demonstrated what another FReeper and I thought of him, posted to each other several months ago: Glenn is like your favorite teacher from high school, a bit goofy on the entertaining side, but able to make the lesson fun and interesting enough that you actually learn it, remember it years later.
He has told those of us radio/TV listeners the story of how the Statue of Liberty was intended as a mock to the Colossus of Rhodes and a symbol of how America succeeds, that Europe should turn to her, emulate her instead of the other way around. His repeating it last night for the bigger audience, those who may not have heard it earlier was a prime reason for my disagreeing with yet another FReeper on a thread the other day who claims his "fifteen minutes may be up." Not by a long shot.
Bennett is correct when says the above.
I believe both parties have failure and neither are grasping the negativity growing over Washington.
No Bill, and maybe if you took yourself out of your own elitist tower and tried to LISTEN to him once in while, you might know this your own self.
Interesting that two top conservative talk show types could completely obliterate the Obamaloon in any debate where the loon couldn’t stand behind his electronic speech machine.
Maybe some compassionate activists will place caches of water along the trail so that the Republican Party won't die of thirst in the desert.
Those maps provided by the Mexican government should help, too.
John McCain is part of the problem.
Apparently you weren't listening all that carefully when you were one -- he has some Republicans as his re-founders, WE don't get to know who they are, the condition he promised them. It is more than obvious who some of them are, if you really think Glenn paints every single politician with the same brush, you haven't been paying attention at all.
Its not the drama queen part that bothers me about Beck. Its how quick he is to dismiss the birth certificate issue,birth certificate-birth certificate-birth certificate-birth certificate-birth certificate-birth certificate-
The country's falling apart, being taken over by radicals and you're worried about a frigg'n birth certificate? I hope you don't think anyone would actually remove him from office as a result....
I agree with Beck. Republican party has not reached rock bottom.
Bennett talks about Beck not listening. Hey Bill, have you listened to Orrin Hatch or Lindsey Graham lately.
Beck is right sometimes you can’t tell the difference between the Rs and the Ds...
Dare I say, The Democrats are all failure while the Republicans have some successes, some failures, some good politicians and a few bad politicians.
I know, God forbid I should be so specific.
If I didnt support Obama or vote for him why should I be hung over? The folks who bought hope and change, sure they are sick as dogs, but not me
>> There will be dozens upon dozens of RINO’s coming out in the next few days blasting Glenn!<<
Yep, it’s very predictable what that undercover RINO operative, Mark Levin, will say on Monday nite’s show.
