  • Self uneducated.

  • Glenn is GREAT! Keep on goin' Glenn! You do GREAT work. We love you and thank you for telling the Truth, and re-educating and reinforming people. Keep entertaining while telling the Truth! You're GREAT. We thank you! Don't listen to the lib "feelings-driven" know-nothing idiots! JUST KEEP GOING. Thanks so much

  • someone married that?

  • He is a "self-educated guy." Therein lies the problem. Many of us Americans proclaim ourselves as experts in specific topics without having the actual education and intellect to back up our thoughts. He is the biggest tool bag extremist I have ever heard in my life. He is worse than Kent Hovind.

  • we lost! waaaaah waaaaaah.

  • What drug is this nigger on?

  • tell this guy to shut the fuck up. if ya wanna change something go change your damn diaper u fuck face bitch.

  • He got a team of snipers for Obama, thats the only team hes makin

  • I just can't get over that little story at the beginning.

    "I'm a guy just like you -- I have pizza with Steve Forbes."

  • Maybe his 'team of advisors' will be as good as Goerbels or Himmler and come up with the Ultimate Solution. Amazing how they call Liberals Nazi's, while acting like it themselves. Anyone understand 'misdirection'?

  • If Beck were smoking something, he'd be more valid. He's really mainlining hate and selling it with a smile.

  • wearing a shirt with Thomas Jefferson on it? OH the stupidity, Jefferson is the type of person that neocons HATE! Were Thomas Jefferson alive , this is the type of culture and speech he would fight to keep from having any influence in policy making. Conservatism has morphed from a political ideology to a cultural movement. KKK -extra light if you will.

  • 2008 - Back to the freedom

    *2012 - Back to the police state

    *(If the Republicans get their way)

  • Sounds like he got him some czars!

  • I'll start getting worried when Beck advocates the organization of uniformed 'security guards' to patrol rallies. You know it's coming.

  • beck is setting the stage for the antichrist

  • The singer Beck? Well, that would explain his song "Devil's Haircut"...

  • Beck/limpnuts/Palin/Rove/Chene­y/Coulter/Murdoch are not paving the way, they ARE the anti-christ. I'm not religious any more, but I heard a biblical scholar say that christ means 'light', as in real or truth. the anti christ is not a being or something to come, but the practice of spreading hate, darkness, non-truth. So all these shitbags are anti-christ, as in anti- light. they thrive on sucking the life out of others like parasites.

  • - erp -

  • I wanna smoke what Glenn does. That shit has gotta be even better than Snoop's weed.

  • true dat

  • LMFAO...!

  • The whole thing has that Jonestown II in the making feel about it. He even sounds like Jim Jones in the final moments

  • Oh but Glenn Beck can take the US President out of context?

  • He's never in context. He is an uneducated (rich) bufoon.

  • sounds

  • nd like you covet others money like obama

  • the event was free

  • Free? man I didn't know that. lol! Of course I know that it is free. I was refering to the fact that the more people follow Glenn Beck, the more he makes money. See, this is exactly what I am talking about. Ignorant, uneducated people following their "shepherd".

  • it's amazing how many people agree with this racist, anti-American alcoholic. This guy is exploiting a bunch of ignorant people. He's making $ off of people who are either uneducated or people who agree with him just because he plays on their fears. Don't these people see that he's laughing all the way to the bank with $ he makes from their ignorance? My prediction is that people will see through his bullcrap, he goes go thru a depression, fall back on the bottle n die an angry man.

  • wow, lift yourselves above the swearing,use higer frequency words ,that have more meaning,or am i dealing with highschool kids,

  • you all sound very mad about obama leaving office soon

  • What? Look at these fucking sheeple

    "I am assembling a team of advisors to talk to me about Finance and Foreign Policy and Defense and Social Issues"

    "YEAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH"

    What the fuck are they cheering at? If he had said some cliche punchline like "and We're going to take back America" I could understand them all cheering, but what the fuck are they cheering at?

  • Glenn Beck said he is self educated is that the same as self medicated?

  • anyone who likes Glenn Beck probably also voted for Obama

  • now i know why murdoch started this nonsense with google , while all he had to

    do , if he really wanted was, to change one tiny weeny bit in the script; a 5 min. job 4 a webmaster......

    -and glenn will appear somewhere within next year in overses news as a pop idol, with no word of his idocy, only in america?????????

  • They that can give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

    Benjamin Franklin, Historical Review of Pennsylvania, 1759

  • Baaaahhhhh someone lead me. Baaaaahhhhh, oh glen,... bahhhhhhhhhh, however will I have an opinion on anything if you don't make one for me.

  • Self-educated. LOL. Is that what he calls it?

  • Oh yea, those Jeffersonians...Get a life media matters! Who anointed you the thought police.

  • jeffersonians subuey??! thomas or GEORGE! can any of you teabaggers think to begin with

  • Comment removed

  • truth does not fear investigation

  • that goes both ways, toasty

  • what do you mean by that

  • Please run, you moron. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE RUN FOR OFFICE! We need a good laugh.

  • So Beck actually compares himself to Chairman Mao??? LOL, hilarious!

  • whitey is no longer on the moon, he is in the ditch

  • Insane.

    This is going to get messy for the US.

  • @carrierexchange

    progressives - let alone liberals - need to understand that these people represent a VERY large part of the population, they are motivated, and they are ready to destroy everything we've worked so hard to build in the last 230 years

  • "these people represent a VERY large part of the population"

    I hope that's not accurate. US motivated by Glenn Beck sounds like War World 3 waiting to happen.

  • @carrierexchange

    I'd say about 20 million people think just like Glenn Beck, so roughly 8% of the electorate... that's pretty ridiculous

  • hope those numbers don't go up.

  • @craigipedia: I'm no Beck fan, for sure, but I am a fan of this country.

    Do you liberals/progressives think you could try working within the framework of the Constitution? The more the left AND the right continue to ignore the rule of law and the principles that this country was founded on, the worse off this country becomes.

  • @Amy31415

    Amy, have you ever read the Constitution? Don't lie, be honest, have you ever read it? Have you read published materials surrounding it, such as the Federal Papers (there are dozens of them). Are you familiar with Supreme Court proceedings? The Constitution gives Congress the right to make laws. So long as the Supreme Court doesn't find them unconstitutional, so long as the Executive signs them, they are "within the framework". Don't just spout talking points at me.

  • Yes I have.

    Let's take one case in point that "progressives" fail big on, Constitutionally. The 2nd Amendment.

    The majority of progressives haven't a clue about the philosophy behind it and think it's about killing bambi or men who are under-endowed phallus-wise. I haven't met very many "progressives" who aren't in favor of more restrictive laws, if not an outright ban.

    Do you think the Patriot Act is constitutional? It isn't, yet it's a law-so that's a weak argument.

  • @Amy31415

    What I think is irrelevant. If the Supreme Court had the stones to hear the case then we would know. But for now, it hasn't been ruled unconstitutional and it is thus constitutional. What most Americans don't understand is that our government was created by the mythical Founders to GOVERN us, not include us. They never intended to have Amy and Craig discuss events, we were supposed to just keep on keeping on, and let the elites deal with such details.

  • Wow. That is really fucked up Craig.

    1. The Constitution is to RESTRICT the gov't and spell out some of our basic rights.

    2. The founding fathers existed.

    3. We are supposed to be the watchdogs and thus, are included in gov't

    4. The 1st Amendment means they DID intend us to discuss this or anything else.

    5. You really want to bend over for these "elites?"

    That has to be the most fucked up interpretation of what our gov't should be, I hope you're joking, but I don't think you are.

  • What makes you think that a bunch of incredibly wealthy slave-owning aristocrats gave two shits about you? #2, I never said they didn't exist, but point taken.

    The Constitution was written for the elites by the elites, "We the People" was THEM, not you or I. Are you part of the government? Have you ever written legislation? It is a good ole boys club like all governments.

  • I think democracy is probably the most fair form of government in existence today, but that is because it has changed over time. You're talking about getting back to principles (230 years old mind you) which said that a black person counted as 3/5 of a human, that women were property, and that a man hand to OWN LAND to vote. Times have changed and you should change with them, not call for a reversion back tot he dark ages of American development.

  • I'm actually going to copy your response, so I can show my political action group just how messed up some of the young people of this country are.

    Congrats, you've reached a whole new level of crazy.

  • And you're just a dumb sheep listlessly waltzing into your own idiocracy

  • also, it's PATRIOT Act, not Patriot Act. It is a clever acronym, not a noun or adjective

  • Only real patriots give up their freedom don't they?

  • @SourceCode2006

    lol... that's why the chose the acronym... fucking brilliant bastards! I forgot that the entire name is "USA PATRIOT Act of 2001" - Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001

  • What you or I think is meaningless, thats what the Constitution says. Now, if we were able to create an organic movement to change the representatives in office, and they put in new people on the Court, and the Court ruled with you then it would mean you were right. But only relative to the standing courts and its standing decisions. As to the 2nd Amendment, it clearly states that we may bear arms through part of a well-regulated militia.

  • "What you or I think is meaningless, thats what the Constitution says."

    Must have skimmed over that part. Where's it say that?

    Oh, and I'm done commenting to you, you're all kinds of nutty. Far worse than Glenn Beck, just on the opposite side.

  • He's self learned hisself wrongly.

  • Wikipedia Glenn Beck

    He has Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, a neurobehavioral developmental disorder. The persistent and pervasive effects of ADHD symptoms can insidiously and severely interfere with one's ability to get the most out of education, fulfill one's potential in the workplace, establish and maintain interpersonal relationships, and maintain a generally positive sense of self.

  • Said that and adding that he was also addicted to alchol .... Who the hell is so idiotic to give the number 1 country in the world in the hands of ignorant, bigot, masochist, selfish, arrogant, unqualified, spoiled, distructive, quitter, unloyal people, who can bring the country back to an economic depression in a snap of a finger? Ah Yes .... the American people

  • no no no im talking about the suicides in his family, but look i dont like to fight, really, im not trying to, u could be my mom, he just makes me so angry because he distorts, lies, and pins ppl against eachother, i just think hes a greedy meglomaniac, its not a left right thing haha

  • How can you be so narrow, naive, and ignorant? You Glenn advisaries deserve the America you get, but too bad you won't get it because I have to live here too! We love you Glenn.

  • hahaha, its spelled "adversaries" i thought you were almost against him when u wrote "advisaries", u know UR too ignorant and naive, to fall for a man who has genetic family mental issues and a long history of drug and alcohol abuse, sounds like hitler, im just sayin! (as glenn would say), try understanding how the world really does work, and stop falling into this greedy megalomaniac trap, its sad, your just his lil lamb

  • this fat fuck and his braindead followers are pure evil.

  • A buffoon with advisers.. hmmm..

  • If only all his advisers weren't picked by him- then maybe he'd actually learn something.

  • hitleresk...

  • Read up on your Jefferson, there, Beck.

    In fact, on most of the founding fathers...

  • OMG!

  • "These radicals are wearing the Jefferson teeshirts." What? Glenn Beck associating himself with one of the main supporters of separation of church and state?

    "Christianity neither is, nor ever was a part of the common law."

    -Thomas Jefferson, letter to Dr. Thomas Cooper, February 10, 1814

  • Oh noes! The shadow goverments!

  • Glenn Beck is a cult leader.

  • Are these people on drugs or something. My 10 year old brother said this sounds crazy.

  • "I'm just like you."

    I eat with Steve Forbes?

    "A team of advisers."

    Czars?

  • First, the dinner was on Saturday, then it was on Friday. Classic Glenn Beck.

  • @tkdmike

    not a supporter of Beck, but I do believe in karma.

  • The Palin / Beck sign & the cheers of support for sweat pants are a good indication of the level of Intellect of the audience.

  • Self Educated? No shit Sherlock!!!!!!!!

  • Nothing wrong with being self educated, except if you choose to only rely on crazy right wing information sources.

  • And THIS is a man that reports for a "FAIR AND BALANCED" News network?

  • @bobble12221

    He is a commentator NOT a reporter.

  • fair point.....

  • I think we on the left should counter this right-wing Palin/Beck 2012 savvy political move with one of our own.

    How does FONDA/FARRAKHAN 2012 sound?

  • Farrakhan could hardly be considered a leftist.

    Counterbalance this Palin/Beck duo would be impossible because they are so extremely right wing/ultra conservative not to speak about stupid teh crazy. That

  • ..That there is simply no one on the left side of american political spectrum who could match them in those given "qualities" (Extremism, stupidity, craziness)

  • If Olbermann could just somehow completely lose it, go bat-shit crazy on national TV, Deep Fry a live sea turtle in boiling whale blubber. We might just have a chance.

    FONDA/OLBERMANN (post turtle fry) 2012!

  • You have a point, I can't think of the counter to Beck. Granted there are a lot of folks on the left that spew incendiary bomb shells every time they speak, but unlike Beck, they're usually accurate and factual. We may just have to go the nostalgic/mythical route (like the repugs did with Reagan, in the 80's).

    How's this FONDA/VADER 2012!

    (He seemed to be very liberal in the first few movies anyway).

  • The only match for Glenn and Palin in 2012 is a tub of KY and a stack of porno mags. That's about as crazy as it will get.

  • Glenn is great thinks for the video's you Obama ass kisser!

  • why of course anna, but the sad part is that the joke is on the intellectually challenged that are his fan base, who keep getting suckered by this idiot to buy his merchandise, unlike others i dont think he is evil, just an opportunistic snake oil salesman, and i am sure they have better ways to spend their hard earned money

  • so he wands a usa circa 1850-1900

    is that what thay really want ?

  • Lol self educated, so I can say whatever I like no matter how ridiculous or outside the realm of reality and make it all ok by saying I'm "self educated"?

    I love how conservatives celebrate willfull ignorance

  • Beck is self-educated, too bad his teacher was a moron.

  • Beck doesn't know a radical from a radish. That is not what these people are that he's referring to, they're reactionaries (just like kombatrock correctly labels his followers). I've been so angry for the past decades realignment of the political spectrum's shift to the right where moderate has become liberal and liberal has become radical. Now on the right this batshit insane reactionary (Bachmann, Limpbag, Fux News hosts et al included) is called a conservative. Reality's a bitch.

  • why is this man not institutionalized

  • The Venus Project could be a better way.

    A real change for our children to see how love and respect work.

  • "I'm a self educated man"

    No, glenn...you're just an idiot.

  • Does this look like a conspiracy to overturn the governement ?

    I dont know... With what Glenn Beck said until now, it could perfectly be that...

  • Why wasn't this insanity compiled into a single video?

  • Comment removed

  • Here is a total buffoon whipping uneducated, ignorant sheep into a frenzy of bloodlust. These reactionary people are quite angry with proclivities towards xenophobia and violence. Beck is a lying Pied Piper for moronic couch potatoes.

  • well put.  Kudos

  • bravo

  • Is Glenn drinking again? I'm just asking quesitons

  • hes dangerous

  • Note the security goons on stage with Beck. He must be a popular guy.

    Also, I heard Glenn Beck won't deny the rumors that he raped and murdered a girl in 1990. I find that interesting.

  • His "Shadow Cabinet" will consist of The Baroness, Storm Shadow, Zartan, and Dr. Mindbender. When the time is right, Glenn Beck will reveal his true form... COBRA COMMANDER!

    HAIL COBRA! HA HA HA HA HA!

  • Shadow Cabinet??

    You know who else had a shadow? Hitler.

    And cabinets? Isn't that where liberals keep their medicine? SOCIALIZED MEDICINE!!!!!!!!!

    And if you rearrange the letters in Shadow Cabinet what do you get??? ~How sad beatnick ~

    Yes, how sad indeed.

  • A man who has cut his career and made his fortune on the backs of US Government enforced copyright law, government granted radio monopolies is not self made, he is the same as the welfare queens he opposes.

  • how ironic he is wearing a brownshirt, just like his hero Adolf

  • @timbonerator

    Of course, you do know that he is wearing this shirt in jest ... do you not?

  • Nah, the dependent lapdogs are apparently too dense to get it, or just won't acknowledge such things.

  • Delusions of grandeur. Reminds me of that Stephen Hawking quote:

    "The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge."

  • Just waiting for beck to start screaming or err in his case crying.... "Stabbed in the back" then I'll know what I need to do.

    Funny so Beck ya say you've got oh roughly 8-10 key areas you want to learn up on?

    And you've got what three advisors teaching you about each area hmm ok.

    What are you calling these guys ya know a Nick name not an official sounding thing something easy to say and catchy. "Czars" maybe.

    This guy Beck is a riot.

  • Nah, the Czar handle is reserved for Obama's administration 'only'!

  • Is Glenn Beck the anti-christ? isn't funny I'm the only one asking these questions?

  • @ AVINATION:

    You know what, that is interesting. Also, I have heard that Glenn Beck raped and murdered a young girl in 1990? I would like this to be investigated as well. It's very disheartening when our so-called media elite fail to ask the important questions about Glenn Beck.

  • @miguelin97223

    Hmmm. Just where did you "hear this?"

  • @ AnnaMagd: i first heard this question raised on yahoo answers. a man from houston, texas drew on mr. beck's autobiographical statements, in which mr. beck apparently said that he had been fired and was at a low point in his life. i know that accidents happen but i think all it takes is for mr. beck to come clean about this possible incident. you know, i think mr. beck raises very important questions about the direction of this country, and i just don't want him to feel like he has to hide.

  • @miguelin97223

    So, you're saying that he admitted to raping and murdering a young girl because he was a low point in his life? And, who is this man from Houston to make an inference like that?

  • @ AnnaMagd: you know, things are murky right now about this alleged incident with a young girl. it seems when you raise this question with local news reporters from the area at the time, they say that there is an archive problem or something - that's what some have heard reported on freerepublic. right now, i am just gathering some new and old friends of mine to maybe put our heads together and pursue this question because it's very important we clear mr. beck of these allegations

  • @miguelin97223

    Apparently, there is a website that was created, as a parody of Beck's style. Do a search on FreeRepublic entitled: Beck Tries to Kill Parody Website.

  • @miguelin97223

    Here's a bit from a post on FreeRepublic about the alleged murder/rape deal:

    " I don't know if you've ever seen the Did Glenn Beck Rape and Murder a Young Girl in 1990 website, but it's fairly amusing. It's a political satire of the style of argument Glenn Beck likes to engage in, which involves requiring that someone prove a negative ("prove you didn't do X") and making claims in the form of an interrogative ("Hey, I'm just asking questions here."

  • @ AnnaMagd: you know, i think it's just like liberals to make fun of this terrible, terrible tragedy that might have happened, but i don't think it's very funny to laugh about this. all mr. beck has to do is explain what he did in 1990 and the questions will go away. all this attention and joking about this alleged incident with a young girl is just sickening.

  • Beck also sued the owner of the site and lost.

  • Divide, conquer and distract works - doesnt it.

  • Comment removed

  • Glenn Beck and any of you who have been brain washed by him need to study Nazi Germany - you are just like they were. Oh Wait you already have studied it havent you taht is why you are duplicating all te same moves Hitler Did. We will kick your asses out of our country you dick weeds

  • OMG please let it be true.

    Please let 2012 be Palin/Beck on the republican side!!!

  • @theastrusmega Yeah, so the Democrats can keep the White House 4 more years. ;)

  • 2 of each type of adviser.

    Go Noah go!

  • "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is it's natural manure." Thomas Jefferson

  • "it's natural manure" - So is bullshit!

    (LMAO)

  • I can't imagine who these people are. If they had any skill or integrity, they'd already be working for a legitimate concern. He's obviously just found a bunch of sycophants who tell him his wacked ideas are on the money. End result, he's just as ignorant as he was when he started. And something tells me his radicals are wearing Orval Faubus and Lester Maddox t-shirts.

  • So, what is the "legitimate concern" that Beck, and "these people" should be working for? Perhaps a conversion of our government over to socialism, dare I say even Marxism? What is good about having the government intrude in more and more of your life? Do you like the idea of paying even more taxes? And, we all will. Both parties stink. Our debt was huge under Bush. Now, it's out of control (12 trillion) under Obama.

  • I'm fine paying more taxes. We all have lots of problems that need fixing and they have to be paid for some way.  Typical knee-jerk reaction - Socialism and Marxism are bad along with taxes. You've been totally brainwashed. Think for yourself. But first, you need to do a little research.

  • Good! Than YOU can pay my share, okay? We shall see how willing you will be to pay more taxes when you're out of work or the dollar is trashed. This country is in serious trouble, financially.

  • And, if you like the idea of socialism or Marxism so much, than why don't you go and live in another country that practices either of those forms of government? You have no idea what you're talking about because you have never experienced a government that rules your life. I do. My mother was a teen under Hitler and Hitler's party was a socialist party. She had to join the Hitler Youth Movement. There was no choice. If you didn't, you would be arrested.

  • AnnaMagd:

    Socialism and Hitler's "National Socialism" are completely different. Socialists were the among the first groups to oppose the Nazis in Germany and fascism in Spain and Italy. Socialism does not necessarily mean state control - that's only one form of Socialism.

  • Cureckt

  • @Mars2O84

    Yes, but socialism a step toward more government interference in your life. Hitler used a severely weakened economy to gain power with a charismatic style and promises of getting the country back to work. He accomplished that and went on to do far more.

  • @AnnaMagd: It's you who doesn't know what she's babbling about! Not you but your mother lived under Hitler and she misinformed you, that the NAZIS where Socialists. And you didn't even bother to inform yourself that this is total bullshit. The Nazis where and are Fascists. Hitler's Nazis killed more than hundred thousand Socialists and Socialdemocrats in concentration camps. Stop watching Fixed News and go to a library instead.

  • @deauvillimus

    Excuse me! The name of Hitler's party was National SOCIALIST German Workers' Party. Yes, Hitler did become enamored with fascism, and Mussolini, but his party was socialistic ... at least in the beginning. And, shut the hell up about my mother "babbling", you moron! YOU DO NOT HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT IT"S LIKE LIVING UNDER A REPRESSIVE REGIME!!! MY MOTHER DOES INDEED KNOW WHAT SHE"S TALKING ABOUT!!!

  • @AnnaMagd: You are not that bright, are you? Just because it was call National Sozialistische Arbeiter Partei doesn't men they where socialists or even for blue-color people (i.e. workers). They simply did that to deceive the masses. And they never socialistic. They where fascists. And I did not say "your mother is babbling" I said YOU are babbling! Because your mother experienced it. Not you. Comprende?

  • Sorry about the typos:

    ...it was´called..

    ...doesn't mean...

    ...And they never where socialistic...

  • I don't think you understand how taxes work. We all pool our money to pay for things we all need. Those who don't work shouldn't be paying taxes. Those who have jobs pay for services for those who can't pay for them themselves. Your argument is based on a shoddy understanding of economics and a shocking lack of compassion for people who are suffering. Maybe you should move. I like it here.

  • @timdaughte

    Nobody said anything about not paying taxes at all. Of course, we need to pay taxes to cover government services but it is the amount of government taxes that I object to. It is the ever-growing expansion of government, and therefore more taxation, that I object to. IF you admire this type of government than you do not believe in the idea behind a Republic ... which means a very limited and small central government. Therefore a government more of your liking would be Venezuela.

  • Taxes are lower than they have ever been, your objections are baseless.

  • @concordat

    Taxes will not be lower soon enough, as we all will find out when the Bush tax cuts expire in 2011. It is inevitable, due to our extreme debt (currently 12 trillion and climbing) that taxes for everyone, especially the middle class, will rise. Of course, you do know that businesses/corporations do not pay taxes, so in order to adjust to a decline in revenue from a tapped out consumer, they will increase the price of their goods.  Hence, inflation is on the horizon.

  • @AnnaMagd

    Also, when inflation begins it will be in earnest. Interest rates will not be raised a quarter of a percent, or so, at a time. Look for huge increases ... 5 or 6% in one fell swoop. We're talking interest rates on steroids but it probably won't happen until after 2010 ... of course, because of the election. Just as in the late 70s and early to mid 80s we will see double digit interest rates ... as high as 14%, perhaps even higher.

  • So you admit, in the end it will be the wealthy and the corporations shafting the common person, and you're alright with that?

    Besides, I don't see the Democratic party raising taxes on the middle class mostly because it would be poltiical suicide. The Republicans can scream class warfare all they want, but the fact is that the current upper class is practically untaxed as is, and have a far larger share of wealth per person. I see their taxes going up if the dems have any sense.

  • @AnnaMagd

    Why did you choose Venezuela instead of a European country?

  • @PTurchan1

    Because the people of Venezuela are currently losing their liberties as their leader, Hugo Chavez, takes government control of not only the media but privately-run businesses such as the oil companies. This is an example, albeit an extreme one, of an increasingly powerful federal government and control of people's lives.

  • @AnneMagd: It is indeed. Because the Bush Junta has brought this financial disaster upon the US of A.

  • You believe there is a difference between Socialism and Marxism? After WWII our debt was 126% of GDP we were beyond broke then

  • This guy will be part of a putsch or something of that kind, someday. He really is a dangerous guy...

  • Wake up and see what is happening to our country. This is not politics as usual. There is (has been) a concerted effort to bring about a change that has nothing to do with our sovereignty or the fact that we are a Republic.  Our liberties began being taken away, in earnest, by Bush. It continues, in earnest, by Obama. Different guy, same game. Obama supports the Patiot Act. Obama will escalate our involvement in Afghanistan. Why? Because he is being told to do so.
