“hillary speaks in souther accent” It was all over the news; watched the clip, and she uses it for a short cutting from a southern writing. She did NOT speak in a ’southern accent’ during her speech…

That’s not ‘defending’ Hillary Clinton, it’s bringing attention to the lies in the media, against whomever.

For those people who think that an african-american male has more of a chance than a white woman at being President, you’re handing the election over to the republicans. What America do you live in?

There will be a time and place for everything, and what I’m saying is racist, but don’t blame the observer…have you driven through the southern United States lately?

Secondly, would most of the ‘progressive’ hillary-haters agree that a person’s voting record is important? If not the most important aspect of a candidate?

Obama’s and Hillary’s voting records are I D E N T I C A L.

She’s much closer to winning than what people could imagine.

I haven’t checked the actual statistics, but I’d bet the number of court cases covering 1st Amendment protected speech are hugely slanted to the left. They don’t cover the right to complain that someone has an annoying voice. They concern the right to speak and/or publish filth, violence, and burning the U.S. flag. S-P’s have pretty much eliminated the credibility of any Leftist complaning that certain speech shouldn’t be protected.

Glenn….use your freedom of choice, while one remains, and simply turn off the sound. Simple solution to a non-issue, wouldn’t you say?

Not a good solution with the possiblilty that she could be elected and we have to listen to her for four years. You wouldn’t suggest that Americans simply not listen to any president would you? Hardly a way to have a well informed electorate.

Why would anyone listen to two so-called “recovering alcohol and drug addicts” anyway. I think they both need to re-visit the 12 steps, fast.

You’re on very thin ice here. S-P’s being the party of legalized drug use and compassionate sentencing for those convicted of drug crimes.

The more big, pink, loudmouth guys like Beck complain about the tone of Hillary’s voice, the more women are going to vote for Hillary as a statement. I know a woman who has been a republican all her life. She’s committed to vote for Hillary just to teach men like Beck a lesson. I know there are many more like her who actually would like to see a woman president for a change.

All of the women I know value their vote more than to throw it away just to “teach men…a lesson.” Women generally examine the issues and vote for the person they think will best serve our country. I’d like to see a woman president, but not just any woman who happens to run. Hillary is definitely not the one I’d like to see. And my opposition to her is based on her politics, not her voice or to get back at someone.

Conservatives say, “she’s a bitch, I hate her, her voice drives me crazy” and then “you progressives are all about hate speech.”
Unbelievable.

S-P’s have they edge in complaints about hate speech. How about a program to search this site for hate speech(including filth, implications of homosexuality) and see where most of the hate comes from. Opposition to your position is not the definition of hate speech.

I don’t intend to utilize “Universal Mediocre Health Insurance”, but please , Bruce, be my guest. As my aunt who lives in Victoria BC noted, the Canadian system started out great….now it’s a mess. Enjoy!

VV, I pay taxes, probably something you have never ever. thought of doing yourself. It is a funny thing about you righties, you whinge about high taxes as if the services granted by your government are free. Guess what, it isn’t, and it isn’t a matter of generosity with other people’s money, it is a matter of everyone benefits, everyone pays. You think for one second that if universal health care came about and you got sick I believe you wouldn’t take advantage, and not only take advantage but whine about the line at your doctor’s?

This is a service which is offered, which will benefit you as well as everyone else. But because it will benefit everyone else, because I know it isn’t the benefit to your holier then thou self that you object to, you object.

This is a matter of your selfish disregard for other people. It is a matter of you loathing the idea of helping others, it is a matter of you personally having benefitted from every single liberal policy you slam, and hating the fact that others might benefit the same.

Same thing with health care – if you don’t think the emergency rooms and clinics help enough people, dig into your pocket and pick up the health insurance costs for someone YOU would like to help. I am certain you would derive a great deal of satisfaction from such an endeavor…..

Actually, on several occasions he had segments about her political views: How unsteady they were, how nobody knows what she really wants, etc. Don’t make assumptions.

Funny thing about America’s economy, Getting sick is the number 1 caught of bankruptcies. No other first world country has that claim, and bankruptcy is not a positive thing for American business, it means they cannot get the money they are owed back.

Of course, this is why the main guys currently arguing in favour of universal health coverage are none other then the frigging corporations.

Of course, universal health care would mean government actually helping someone other then you, so you object because you are a whiny assed, selfish conservative who believes that other people benefitting from something is in some wierd way, bad.

Oh, and at the exact same time, you argue in favour of government having the right to read your private communications, abduct you in secret, torture you in secret, try you in secret and execute you in secret – just by naming you a foreign enemy combatant and not giving you the right to appeal.

Yep, the left really is for giving more power to the government then the right, now isn’t it?

Go ahead and contact the Ohio Secretary of State’s office, val.

The new SecState has demanded the resignation of the entire voting board in Cuyahoga County, FOR CAUSE (that means that they will probably be going to jail). Public hearings have been held or are being held to remove two who refuse to resign. The SecState has also found that the Cuyahoga tabulation computer was illegally attached to the Internet during the entire count. Etc.

Hide your head all you want — Bush is a CRIMINAL, not a legally-elected President.

It is sad his loyalty to a political party is greater than his country or even fellow man.

Another greedy person willing to say anything no matter how much of a disservice or harm to others they cause.

Can’t seem to use the noteriety and media for Good and make money. It has to be for the bad and make money.
Beck is another sad human being attempting to bother others as a purpose.

Don – A quick ‘q” – If you kill your TV, how will you watch cartoons and enjoy that bong?

Toooodles…

Also, don’t say this is sexist just because shes a democrat and Beck insulted her. If you look the word up in a dictionary you would know the true meaning. Beck was not insulting women, he was cracking jokes at one woman, and it’s not even based on fiction, she really does have an annoying voice.

Besides, if she were elected, four years of that voice would drive one mad. Just think of the State of the Union speech, going from that high pitched screechy voice to clapping to screechy.
