Let me ask you this, WHAT did Grover Norquist mean when he said: "We're going to crush labor as a political entity"
1st off.... who the hell is that? 2ndly who the hell cares?
The American labor movement and unions' SPECIAL interest is We, the People; the average working guy and gal. The American labor movement and unions have done MORE for ALL working men and women, union and non union, in this country then ALL the Republicans that ever lived.
BULLSHIT! The numbers dont add up (unless you live on The Planet of the Apes)
Glenn Beck is a sham. This is the guy who who has such disregard and lack of respect for his viewers that he sets them up to be ripped off on fools gold at 90% - 208% above the MELT value.
Fools Gold: Inside the Glenn Beck Goldline Scheme
The average Goldline markup was 90% above the melt value of the coin. The largest markup on any coin was 208% above the melt value. Furthermore, the average Goldline markup is 47% higher than better-priced competitors, with some of the companyÂ’s markups going as high as 102% compared to its competitors on one of the coins they offered.
• Goldline Falsely Claims To Offer “Good” Investments
By selling gold at twice the melt value, the price of gold would need to double for consumers to break even on their “investment.”
• Goldline Salespeople Misrepresent Their Ability To Give “Investment Advice”
Sales people imply that they are “investment advisors” or “financial advisers” by offering investment advice, which insinuates that they have some sort of fiduciary responsibility to get you the most return on your investment.
However, since they are not licensed investment advisors, they have no such responsibility. In 2006, the Missouri Secretary of StatesÂ’ Office, Securities Division filed formal consent order against Goldline for exactly this reason and recovered over $200k for an elderly consumer that was ripped off.
• Goldline Plays off Public Fears of Government Takeover and Has Formed an Unholy Alliance with Conservative Pundits to Drive a False Narrative
Goldline employs several conservative pundits to act as shills for itsÂ’ precious metal business, including Glenn Beck, Mike Huckabee, Laura Ingraham, and Fred Thompson. By drumming up public fears during financially uncertain times, conservative pundits are able to drive a false narrative. Glenn Beck for example has dedicated entire segments of his program to explaining why the U.S. money supply is destined for hyperinflation with Barack Obama as president. He will often promote the purchase of gold as the only safe investment alternative for consumers who want to safeguard their livelihoods. When the show cuts to commercial break, viewers are treated to an advertisement from Goldline.
“Goldline rips off consumers, uses misleading and possibly illegal sales tactics, and deliberately manipulates public fears of an impending government takeover – this is a trifecta of terrible business practices,” Weiner said. “It’s disgraceful that this company would capitalize on financially unstable times to prey upon people’s nest eggs.”
You have got to stop reading The Huffington Post and Media Matters.... and Anthony Wiener is an idiot and a liar.
Glenn always says gold isnt right for everyone, but right for others.
I listen to him all the time... have been for over 10 yrs, and I havent gone out and wasted my "nestegg" on gold.
You have to be an idiot to just blindly do something b/c someone else says to.
Do you think we (conservatives) cant think for ourselves? If so, we are'nt like you liberals that follow party lines no matter where they may lead. As long as we are listening to our "dear leader" then its all OK
