Believe what you want. I'll gladly stack my conservative creds against yours any time you want. The fact that I don't let some snake oil salesman do my thinking for me shouldn't bother you. In fact, you might want to do a tad bit more critical thinking for yourself instead of following the word of entertainers. I'm an evangelical Christian too, but I don't give much attention to all the televangelist entertainers either. Glenn Beck is the political equivalant of Ernest Angley.

You know, it would help if the details of real items he exposes were not mixed in with tin foil hat details like FEMA camps.......and didn't weep on TV.
Why would anybody object to Beck debunking a tin-foil-hat conspiracy theory like "FEMA camps"? What's wrong with that?
Because he said he couldn't debunk them in March 2009. Then Popular Mechanics contacted him and debunked them in April 2009......but you knew that didn't you.

What I find amusing about this FEMA camp thing is back when the Bush administration was getting demonized, there was a similar charge about "secret" interment camps all over the country, but they were'nt set up by FEMA, instead some obscure sub-agency of the CIA located on old abandoned military and other federal sites where bunkers were once built in case of a nuclear attack. There was even a map showing where these bunkers were located. It was genuinely laughable. I always wondered why Beck didn't use that earlier debunked story to make his own case about the non-existence of these sites. Both were obviously classic conspiracy theories.
When will Rahm Emanuel invite Glen Beck over for a night of Gladiator movies?
and watch them NAKED!!!
Beck was hoping to get a dumptruck load of dirt and score a ratings coup and he got left holding the bag instead. Blind ambition does that sometimes. And Beck thinks he's a libertarian.
Why wouldn't he be hoping for a "dumptruck load of dirt" and to "score a ratings coup"?
That's what he does for a living. Duh.
What I don't get is why people who profess to not give a shit about Glenn Beck keep their panties in such a perpetual twist over him.
Really? I thought he was a true believer who loves America.....now I find out he does this to turn a buck. I'm shocked.....shocked I tell you!
No ones panties are in a twist. I'm laughing at his folly.
Whoever dubbed Beck fans 'Beckerheads', I just want to say thanks for that one...

What are your "conservative creds" worth if you agree with liberals that Americans are innately stupid and unqualified to think for themselves, but must instead rely upon someone else to tell them what to think?

You've called yourself a Libertarian and a Conservative, but you believe that Capitalism and Patriotism cannot coexist?... that it's impossible to sell one's honest opinion?
Tell me, would YOUR opinion necessarily change if someone were paying you good money for it? Mine wouldn't. Like Beck, I'd just be thrilled to get paid for something I would've done anyway. Ain't America GREAT?
Indeed. Massa played him like the proverbial Stradivarius, and Beck knew it by the end of the show (probably before that, really). I don't know what in the world Beck was thinking when he decided to deal with this guy (it's blatantly obvious Beck did not do any homework on the man, particularly with regard to his reason for voting 'no' on the HC bill). I don't normally watch his program, but I did tune into it yesterday and was not a bit surprised by what I saw. Hopefully, Beck has learned a valuable lesson here.The fact that Beck APOLOGIZED to his audience is very telling.
If you want to make a thread about Massa's personal behavior, knock yourself out. This thread is about Beck's eyes glazing over while rubbing his greedy little hands together at the thought of getting an enemy to dish dirt on the party on his show. It backfired on him, pure and simple. He even apologized for wasting an hour of TV.
Put up or shut up. Massa's stoopid behavior isn't the subjet of this thread. You are free to poke him with a stick in a thread about that if you want to. Heck, I'll even come over and agree with you. But that isn't what this is about. Why are you deflecting for Beck?

That IS outstanding. A WINNAH!!!!!!!!
Actually, I think the majority of American people are very intelligent. What I do find disconcerting are the ones who listen to entertainers to get their "news" to base "their" opinions on. I find them too lazy to think for themselves and instead glom onto what the talking head says as gospel without realizing that they are doing it for money more than ideology. But funny that you claim that liberals think Americans are stupid. Many of the conservative talk radio hosts I listen to have made that claim on repeated occasions. Savage and Boortz routinely berate the American electorate. Other talkers do too. And no, I can't give you specific incidents.....they are on the radio, not in print.

Nice spin, but no cigar.

Glenn Beck was correct at the end of his show yesterday. He wasted our time.
