[ Make the Beck suspension permanent!

It should be permanent. Threatening the life of the GOP nominee for president deserves more than a slap on the hand. Jail time is in order here. ]

So we support censorship and black listing now?

Wow, I guess fewer voices not more is the new way to go. I guess we should demand quotas on hiring conservatives now, because affirmative action is wrong unless we can make it benefit us....

[ Before you go too far afield with this you should know that Glenn is on a previously scheduled vacation this week. Started last Friday and he will return next week. This is just grandstanding by Sirius, Breitbart and now, Drudge.

Of course, haters gotta hate. ]

The fill ins for this week, Doug and Scott were fairly decent.

With the likes of Don Imus and Howard Stern, what give Sirius any authority to censor anyone ???

It's their network. They can do whatever-TF they want.

How's that?

I can't see the umpire from here, but this is strike two for Beck, right?

Ratings will likely be his third strike and he's out.

"This... is a simple game. You throw the ball. You hit the ball. You catch the ball."

But you NEVER talk about assassinating presidential candidates!

There are times I think that Beck has been trying to bail out, that maybe his ship has been hijacked and he's looking for an escape.

The rest of the time I think he's losing it.

So Grace, what would be your penalty for someone who uses the public airwaves to call for the assassination of a presidential candidate?

Thor said:

If he oversteps that, how do we get him out of office? And I don’t think there is a legal means available. I think it will be a terrible, terrible position the American people will be in to get Trump out of office because you won’t be able to do it through Congress.

A non-legal means of removing an overreaching POTUS would also mean a member of the upper military arresting POTUS for dereliction of Duty since he is commander in chief and would be part of the “command structure”. The military could detain him indefinitely as well, effective removing him from command structure, this happens in coups a lot.

Tell a whole LOT that a lot of people’s first thought would be “Assassinate” word.

Basically the military would be forced to remove him from power via coup. That doesn’t mean they would actually have to shoot POTUS, just detain him.

Yeah, Stabby and Shooty were going at it pretty hot and heavy.

Nice editing job you did with that discussion. Let's include the entire text, shall we?
THOR: He is a danger to America and I got to ask you a question and this is serious and this could ring down incredible heat on me because I’m about to suggest something very bad. It is a hypothetical I am going to ask as a thriller writer.

With the feckless, spineless Congress we have, who will stand in the way of Donald Trump overstepping his constitutional authority as President? If Congress won’t remove him from office, what patriot will step up and do that if, if, he oversteps his mandate as president, his constitutional-granted authority, I should say, as president.

If he oversteps that, how do we get him out of office? And I don’t think there is a legal means available. I think it will be a terrible, terrible position the American people will be in to get Trump out of office because you won’t be able to do it through Congress.

BECK: I would agree with you on that and I don’t think you actually have the voices we’ve been talking about and we’ve been talking about this off-air for a while. I think the voices like ours go away. I don’t think we are allowed – especially if things, and I believe the economy is going to go to crap, even if Jesus was in office. It’s going to naturally reset. It has to.

"If Congress won’t remove him from office, what patriot will step up and do that if, if, he oversteps his mandate as president, his constitutional-granted authority, I should say, as president."

Thor's implying something quite beyond what you suggest. All it would take is some nutcase listening to these two idiots, thinking himself a "patriot", and following through.

That’s ironic coming from a fan of the amnesty supporting, Mexico worshipping, RINO Globalist George W. Bush. Your precious “Dubya” is responsible for Obama, mainly because of Bush’s stupid war against Iraq.

I don’t think a fan of “W” has any place to criticize Trump’s conservatism.

Well, so what I’m finding out is that mentally unstable people can’t get away with anything these days.

Good to know.

I think EVERY person on this forum has a right to their opinion..thus your misrepresentations of GW Bush.

You just vote for your candidate. I can hardly wait till the worm turns AFTER the election.

Beck is still claiming he was saying he wanted to stab Stu not Trump. And he thinks people will fall for it.
