Was I right or what? He's absolutely unable to answer anything I've asked him. I love it. Literally every single response is a vague avoidance of the topic. The thing about arguing with somebody who has no standards or integrity is that you can never reach a conclusion on anything. I think, maybe, he's content to see reality however Fox News paints it for him. It's like knowing you're in the Matrix, but preferring to stay inside it. Ignorance is bliss. Willful ignorance is a disgrace.

He'll dodge it anyway. He can't even engage in an honest dialogue on a point by point basis. As you've seen yourself, he goes right into name calling and making odd assumptions about us, despite having absolutely no idea who we are or what we think. I'll send you the link to the other video that I've been trouncing him on. He avoided this one question for about nine exchanges by just calling me a liar. It's hysterical.

The truth is a pesky little thing Progressive Socialist hate with all their hearts.

Progressives do not want truth and facts... they want indoctrination and lies.

Fox ews is such a lying machine! Fuck Fox news!

[infodirts]

tour buses funded by republican interests groups facilitate superficial protests all around america. Somewhere in a mansion the top of the republican hierarchy are laughing their asses off.

One time, I borrowed a dollar from a guy who knew a rapist. I guess I shouldn't run for office! I pal around with rapists.

Yes, and I agree with everyone I've ever worked with as well. It really is that simple.

[chubbyruckus]

You bastard. How dare you idolize Hitler like that! You're clearly telling everyone that you support and agree with the murder of millions. It's a good thing I have my flag bumper sticker, or I might succumb to this disgusting treachery. Hang on, let me go get my opinion from Glenn Beck and then I'll get back to you.

It's also unfortunate that it's not uncommon. I have arguments with my business partner all the time over shit that Limbaugh says. Each and every time I get him to the point where BBQ is (having to actually give real answers instead of vague nonsense), he just moves on to another vague talking point. It's as if they can't bear the idea that these people have duped them for so long. They'd rather swallow shit than see the asshole it comes out of. As long as the shit feels patriotic, I guess.

[chubbyruckus]

I agree. It's a dark day in America when my twelve year old has better critical thinking skills than a guy in his fifties. It's one thing to say "I'm comfortable with this ideology. Leave me alone." I could, at least, respect his honesty. But he's here claiming that he's the open minded one. Can you name one thing he's answered? He can't show examples of Annenberg bias. He can't give a quote by Pelosi saying "nazi". He can't tell us the meaning of the Dunn speech. Is it me?

[carloz1]

In light of this discussion I looked up some quotes that are ironic and fitting.

"Learn from the masses, and then teach them."

Mao Tse-Tung

"How fortunate for leaders that men do not think"

Adolph Hitler

Oh my, does quoting someone mean that you agree with them? Apparently this bozo thinks it does.

It would be funny if it wasn't so explosive. It is sadly the way most of us draw conclusions and these talking heads know how to sway them. State a small truth and attach it to unrelated arguments. If done the right way you can gather a huge following. It is just hard to believe that people buy what Glen Beck is selling. I guess he just really know his audience. He is more over the top than Steve Colbert but he isnt selling it as comedy. Go figure.
