Glenn Beck Encourages Listeners To Use More Energy To ‘Wipe Out Any Potential Energy Savings’ At The DNC
Glenn Beck Encourages Listeners To Use More Energy To ‘Wipe Out Any Potential Energy Savings’ At The DNC
In April, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) promised that the Democratic National Convention this week will be the “greenest, most sustainable” convention in history. The Democrats greening efforts include the use of biodegradable balloons and signage, an army of volunteers for recycling, and a calculation of the convention’s carbon footprint.
Responding to the Democrats’ efforts, conservative global warming denier Glenn Beck is mockingly calling on his listeners to participate in a “carbon ONset program” aimed at counteracting progressive efforts to offset the environmental impact of the convention. On his website, Beck is encouraging Americans to “use more energy for mother nature“:
What can you to help? Take part in our carbon ONset program. We are asking you to make just a few small sacrifices to completely wipe out any potential energy savings the Democrats claim credit for. (By ‘energy savings’, we mean buying their way out of the energy they’ll use by flying in tens of thousands of people to a city so they can announce Barack Obama as their candidate. Seems like most people already knew that, but I digress).
Sign up for our carbon ONset program. Use more energy for mother nature. Do it for the earth (or more accurately, the people living on it.)
Beck posted a survey on his website (see graphic on the right-hand side) where listeners can say what they’ll do to “use more energy.” On his radio show today, he also offered suggestions for how his listeners can help “raise 70 million pounds of carbon.” Beck repeatedly kept claiming it needed to be done “for the children“:
What I’m just, I’m asking you to participate because it’s for the children. You go to the website. Now, how many, how many extra miles can you pledge? Can you drive five extra miles a day? Can you take the long way home, the long way to work? Can you just warm up your car? I know it’s August. Can you cool down your car? Can you get up like you do in the winter and just start your car?

Your Time-Warner neocons at work….
August 25th, 2008 at 6:11 pmAnd CNN gave this puke a job. Oh that liberal media.
August 25th, 2008 at 6:13 pmIf Beck didn’t believe carbon offsets were doing any good, then why encourage people to waste mroe energy?
… so they can announce Barack Obama as their candidate. Seems like most people already knew that, but I digress.
Clearly, Beck does not understand what goes on at political conventions. They do much more than simply nominate their party’s candidates for president and vice president.
Why is anyone allowing him to express his opinions, when those opinions are so clearly ignorant?
August 25th, 2008 at 6:14 pmHow many houses does Glenn Beck Have?
August 25th, 2008 at 6:14 pmWhat a complete idiot. I have a hard time understanding this level of stupidity.
August 25th, 2008 at 6:15 pmWay to represent right wing thinkers, Beck. Your Mormon family must be so proud of you.
August 25th, 2008 at 6:15 pmThe better question is how many wives does he have?
August 25th, 2008 at 6:16 pmIs he certifiable now?
August 25th, 2008 at 6:16 pmThe man is a total lunatic.
What the he!! is wrong with CNN? What a moron.
Why not stamp “Republicans: The Party of Excess” on his forehead?
August 25th, 2008 at 6:17 pmI didn’t realize “enlightment” meant wanton waste…
August 25th, 2008 at 6:19 pmWhat a juvenile reaction. How old is beck, 12?
I’d expect that from a child, but a grown man? Geez.
but you know, there are brain-dead morons that actually take heed to what this jerk says. Unbelievable. I’d be embarrassed to admit I was a glenn beck fan – which, btw, I definitely am not. I’ve got live brain cells.
August 25th, 2008 at 6:21 pmIt’s not a circus without the clowns. This guy is still on CNN.
August 25th, 2008 at 6:23 pmWhy does CNN have this person on the air?
1. He has no credentials in an academic field, in a scientific field, in journalism, or in anything else that I can tell.
2. He is not an outstanding speaker or even commentator.
3. His show is regularly the lowest rated in whatever time-slot them put him.
4. He causes a lot of problems by making statements that are inflammatory/racist/etc and likely has cost CNN some ad bucks.
Why is this person on the air at CNN? Are they afraid FOX will grab him up if he is released from his contract?
(Perhaps he has a non-cut contract he got someone at CNN to sign while they were in a drunken stupor.)
It’s a mystery to me….
August 25th, 2008 at 6:23 pmThe only people dumber than Beck are the ones who’ll take this survey seriously. What a sad state for “conservatives” to espouse energy waste. People like Beck have no real values or principals, just a job to brainwash rubes.
August 25th, 2008 at 6:25 pmGlenn Beck, the poster boy for The Ugly American, circa 2008.
August 25th, 2008 at 6:27 pmI see all our 4-5 trolls here today have jumped all over the defense of beck.
Heh Heh
August 25th, 2008 at 6:28 pmWhy stop at energy consumption? If future President Obama improves the economy, Beck can call for people to stop spending their money, or better yet, just flush their money down the toilet. That should offset those economic gains. If a future President Obama creates more jobs in America, Beck can call for Republican employers to fire workers to offset those gains. If Obama reduces the trade deficit, Beck can call for his viewers/listeners to offset that reduction by buying more products made overseas. He can start his “buy Chinese” campaign to buy more Chinese-made goods. If Democrats reduce crime, Beck can call on his listeners to commit more crime to offset those reductions. If Democrats get the world to like us more, Beck can call on people to insult other countries so the world can continue to hate us at Bush-Presidency levels.
Republicans: fighting progress at every level. It’s anti-Americanism you can believe in!
August 25th, 2008 at 6:29 pmThis is absolutely disgusting…I think if I saw him in public that I would give him a hit he would remember for a very long time…one punch knockout…it would soooo be worth it…assault or not.
August 25th, 2008 at 6:31 pmI told Becky’s Mom that huffing paint was bad for her baby. Very sad.
August 25th, 2008 at 6:33 pmClearly, the world would be a better place without the likes of Beck and his followers.
August 25th, 2008 at 6:34 pmnow there would be a war worth fighting.
Come on guys, it’s clear he was speaking tongue-in-cheek – ass-cheek, that is.
August 25th, 2008 at 6:36 pmAt least we can now stop officially falling for and calling the news media “liberally biased”, right?
BTW, how can we all band together to force CNN/HLN to put at least 1 liberal commentator on to counter balance Beck & Dobbs?
Liberal bias my a**
August 25th, 2008 at 6:37 pm@Sluggo 13
CNN has 2 reasons.
1) They’ve been called “librul media” so many times without defending themselves, that they will hire any right winger in hopes that they’ll stop being seen as librul. They will hire half the Bush admin when they leave too. Also, they hired that “values voter” reporters. They are fools in this, they will still be the enemy of the extreme right.
2) They want the next OReiley. Unfortunately, he does have a following.
August 25th, 2008 at 6:38 pmStupidity all the time, yep, that’s the mark of JimAK.
August 25th, 2008 at 6:46 pmBeck is on CNN JimAK.
Anyway the reason the price of gas is down is because people used less of it IE they conserved energy. But perhaps Becks parents left him in a running vehicle with the carbon monoxide blowing in thru the window..

“Republicans: fighting progress at every level. It’s anti-Americanism you can believe in!”
You nailed it. The politics of opposition, regardless of how absurd it is. They have no ideas to run on…so run against Democratic ideas! The Dark Ages weren’t so bad….
August 25th, 2008 at 6:48 pmIt’s one thing for a program guest to blatantly propagandize, it is quite another for a HOST to do so. As if it wasn’t damn obvious anyway Beck is a GOP mouthpiece and so is CNN as it has been for many years now. I don’t expect perfect impartiality form anyone but Beck is functioning directly as a GOP spokesman.

August 25th, 2008 at 6:49 pmInhale like heck.
Well. At least the troll acknowledges the fact that Becky should be on FAUX, if he’s employed at all.
August 25th, 2008 at 6:51 pmThey should make a bumper sticker that points to the exhaust pipe and says “Be like Beck – Inhale Here”

Hey, goofball. Beck is on CNN.
August 25th, 2008 at 6:51 pmI’m picturing Jim reading the response from Xisithurus and mumbling, “well he SOUNDS like he’s on Fox…”
August 25th, 2008 at 6:53 pmSO why is JimAK bashing FOX with Beck?
August 25th, 2008 at 6:54 pmCheck out NewsHounds, they watch FOX so people dont have to.
August 25th, 2008 at 6:56 pmhttp://www.newshounds.us/
Yes, do exactly as Beck says, lemmings! And when you’re energy bill comes, I’m sure it will all ssem worth it.
Or did Beck say that he’d pick up the tab for this childish demonstration? No?
Idiots.
PEACE
August 25th, 2008 at 6:56 pmI think it’s safe to say the trolls get their news from talk radio, FreeRepublic, and RedState. No “librul bias” there.
August 25th, 2008 at 6:57 pmNo, they spend time debunking the political operatives that appear on the propaganda channel that just happens to call itself FOX.
August 25th, 2008 at 7:00 pmDon’t worry Jimbo, the new numbers on poverty and Americans without health insurance come out tomorrow. That’s a topic progressives should get excited about.
Good Christians following Jesus’ instructions in his Sermon on the Mount will be paying attention.
The Prosperity Gospelers will be pointing fingers.
August 25th, 2008 at 7:02 pmSo, in a thread about a CNN personality, in which you mistakenly criticized TP for “Fox-bashing”, you have the balls to defend your mistake by claiming that “TP spends the bulk of their time slamming Fox”, even though the current thread belies your very premise?
that’s some wicked troll ju-jitsu there, JimAK.
However, given that Jim’s primary purpose here at TP has been to defend Senator Ted “Tubes” Stevens” from the vicious trumped-up charges leveled at him by the leftist Bush DoJ, it’s clear that when it comes to focusing too narrowly on a single target, jim knows whereof he speaks.
August 25th, 2008 at 7:07 pmTheres always free cheese in the rat trap. Its a deal, Its a deal.
August 25th, 2008 at 7:07 pmBeck – right wing Repub radical at their worst. What a complete dolt. Let’s ignore Beck in the future for what he is– an opinionated right-wing freak in search of listeners.

August 25th, 2008 at 7:17 pmThere used to be a saying in show biz: If you’re a moron, don’t advertise it.
Shouldn’t that hold for political discussion as well?
Cheers,

Cheers,
August 25th, 2008 at 7:21 pmYou’re not stressing anything Obama already hasn’t, stupid hick. He has made clear that there are serious disconnects in the black community and for parents to get involved with their children’s education and development. Wingnuts like yourself only care to bash them. Good of you to use their problems as a political vice so you can forget about them after the election, which you will not win.
More black males in prison than in college. You think that is a problem a President Obama will not address?
Senator Biden is not a racist, and Obama had the final word on that. You don’t. Now shutup.

Seriously?
A Senator with a 100% rating from the NAACP?
Seriously?
August 25th, 2008 at 7:24 pmConservatives don’t Fox-bash. They Fox-bate.
August 25th, 2008 at 7:24 pmI it funny no ones see’s the Humor in Glenn Beck. He is a very funny man. He is just making fun of all the Stupid things that Networks or Dems do to make everyone thing they are Green or what ever that is?
Al Gore is the most NONgreen person out their he says you should do this and that but does not do one single thing he says will help the enviroment. What a Foney!
One of the last stupid things i saw was Monday night using Candles to light the studio, Like that will make a difference. all the while the Trucks and equipement used in the production is running. What about the Announcers did they ride bikes to the Studio, All bet they Flew in private Jets to the game.
Do you really think tonight Dem event in Denver will have all of them riding bikes their?? Right like i said they are all such a bunch of Foneys or Hypocrites but it seems not one on this forum has said anything to that one.
It is Do as i Say and not as i Do. Get real Democrat or Republicans they do not have any one thing different between them. As if Liberals are better than conservatives Get real.
August 25th, 2008 at 7:24 pmIf anything i think Liberals are the one that seems to jump on anything they say and go hog wild. Even while they do on follow one thing they says.
Just like the Peta people “FONEY”. Don’t eat meat but i like KFC thought. Get Real
JimAK Says:

August 25th, 2008 at 7:51 pmWhat a hateful, vile, stupid little prick Glenn Beck is… And he can be seen and heard on the second most mistrusted channel, Corporate Noisome Noise (CNN). And to think that only fifteen or twenty years ago, they actually reported the news in a somewhat objective manner… Ted Turner must be sick to his stomach to see what these little fascist pricks have done to his painfully-built CNN, the first 24 hour television news channel.
I watch RussiaToday on Ch. 32 in SF, Jon Stewart and Keith Olbermann. Most of the rest of TV “news” is just right-wing propaganda…
August 25th, 2008 at 7:53 pm“Humor“?
Nope. Humor is a human quality that requires a human mind. I don’t think the collection of bone, fat, and empty space, in Becky’s head would qualify.
August 25th, 2008 at 7:57 pmJust think of the amount of pollution that would be stopped from entering the atmosphere, if Beck would just shut an go away!
August 25th, 2008 at 7:59 pmSpeaking of corporate media whores, if you want to avoid the shrill cable coverage, PBS is covering the conventions.
August 25th, 2008 at 8:04 pm“I watch RussiaToday on Ch. 32 in SF, Jon Stewart and Keith Olbermann. Most of the rest of TV “news” is just right-wing propaganda…”
Yea, I want to Watch some Russian News! Or are you saying Keith Olbermann is a communist?? I kind of Figuried he was one. But now i know for sure he was one.
And you think Glenn Beck is a Prick? Well i guess i will listen to a Funny Prick rather than a dull Communist any day.
Most of these comments on here read like a Rant from some Nut Farm. Glenn Beck is a Stupid Little Prick. Something my three years Daughter would say. Or are Liberals are not very creative in their thoughts?
I think i am going to go turn of the TV and watch the Stupid Little Prick as he is more funny than reading these Stupid Little Comments from Nut jobs.
August 25th, 2008 at 8:09 pmThe pathetic thing is that Beck probably thinks that this is a clever idea.
Why doesn’t he just ask people to burn money? Because that is no less ridiculous.
August 25th, 2008 at 8:13 pmBeck is a Stupid Little Prick. Something my three years Daughter would say.

August 25th, 2008 at 8:13 pmYour three-year old daughter would call Beck a prick?
Really?!?
I’m starting to understand how you could find Beck ‘funny’… your world seems pretty warped.
Does he have any idea how juvenile he sounds? I bet his mother is very sorry she gave birth to that cretin.

Can’t have THAT now, can we?
Burn up that energy, Beck listeners! It’s your duty to keep costs (and profits) as high as possible!

How could you not know that i am Not a Liberal? Where in my Message did i give you that impression?
Liberal Conservative,what diference does it make when the Leader in Washington think we are all just a bunch of Dit witts? Do you think any of them really care about us??
Just like the Rant from the Two Canidates, Have any of them done anything to change anything for the Better?? We will still be taking about the same thing 4 years from now or 8 years or 12 years. Same Crap different Election.
So get off the High horse and start making the canidates mean what they say, I bet most on this forum never even vote.
You could do everyone a favor and Vote the scum out of Office and get some Fresh blood in Washington.
August 25th, 2008 at 8:40 pmJoewarmer probably thought Savage-Weiner’s comments about autistic kids was also a laugh riot. People with IQs in the 70s do find rather inappropriate things funny. Either that or you are a complete d-bag. So mentally challenged or a d-bag??
August 25th, 2008 at 8:47 pmYou are an illiterate idiot. I honestly looked at this…

Having lived 17 years in the foothills outside of Denver I can assure you this message is a non-starter Most of these people where green before they even knew it. I was riding with a Colorado native one day when a car in front of us threw a bottle out of their car We stopped and picked it up further up the road at an overlook where a herd of buffalo where milling around sat the car that threw the bottle needless to say my friend stopped got out and handed the bottle to the driver and politely requested he dispose of it properly. This was in 1980
August 25th, 2008 at 9:10 pmMaybe we could all have a Group hug and we could all feel better about the world.
Group hugs don’t cause global warming! Or maybe with all the breathing it will spike the CO2 emmissions.
Feel good politics do nothing for anyone. never have and never will.
I have not read one Constructive argument on this Forum.
Just Mean Vile comments on people. When has making money a bad thing? Do you not have jobs Or do you have Goverment Subsidy checks delived to your home?
As for Glenn Beck he is a funny Guy, But it seems most of you can not understand the hummor Or see thur to the point he is trying to make. But keep up the Group hugs as i think Al Gore way want you to take out a Carbon Emissions permit for your damage to enviroment.

I live and work in NYC and I can guarantee you I make more in a month that you did last year, so again STFU.
Joe @ 106
I’ve never gotten a Goverment check delived. I haven’t gotten government checks (tax returns) delivered to my home.
Is your 3 year old daughter writing your posts?
August 25th, 2008 at 9:28 pmJoe,
Why do more people go on welfare/unemployment when a Republican comes in and fewer when a Democrat comes in? This is true as far back as records have been kept.
Answer: It has nothing to do with lazy vs. hardworking. Democratic policies are better.
August 25th, 2008 at 9:34 pmMore proof that repugs want to ruin it for the rest of us.
August 25th, 2008 at 9:50 pmWell Beck has a $50 million contract so he can afford to be an idiot.
August 25th, 2008 at 9:52 pmWell Beck has a $50 million contract so he can afford to be an idiot.
Seems like the more these RW gasbags make, the more idiotic they are. Rush @400MM and Sean @ $100MM, prove that. Why is it only the rubes, like Joewormer, defend these clowns?
August 25th, 2008 at 10:10 pmWell Beck has a $50 million contract so he can afford to be an idiot.
So what?, I guess you need to see blue state bob as he seem to make more in a Month than the rest of us.

August 25th, 2008 at 11:03 pmHeadline News each evening gives you three hours of Glenn Beck, four hours of Nancy Grace, and two hours of Showbiz Tinight. And they are called communists?!?

August 25th, 2008 at 11:18 pmYou liberal are so predictable as you seem to say the same thing over and over again.
So i wish their was somebody on this forum that had some common sense!
You know that is what Glenn Beck says all the time. Maybe he is right. But then again the Right is Right.
August 25th, 2008 at 11:18 pmJoe,
August 25th, 2008 at 11:20 pmWhy do you have so many errors in your posts? What is your native language?
I guess you must not be watching the Dem’s Convention. As maybe you don’t believe in what they are preaching.
I would not believe it either as you could play the same thing 4 years from now and hear the same thing. But you would not know the difference as you can’t remember that they said it.
August 25th, 2008 at 11:24 pmAnd the Republican convention is better—HOW?
August 25th, 2008 at 11:26 pmWhat is your native language?
I believe it is English. But maybe to a Liberal it is something entirely different.
August 25th, 2008 at 11:26 pmI multitask. I am watching the convention on Tivo (skipping commercials) and doing other things. You guess wrong.

“So i wish their was…”
That is a strange pidgen English. English would be:
August 25th, 2008 at 11:30 pm“So I wish there was…”
That’s only one example out of dozens.
I’m neither, conservative, liberal, nor progressive. I’m an old fashioned moderate. I couldn’t begin to name the times I’ve voted for a candidate despite the party platform. This election will be the first time I’ve voted a “straight ticket”.
Federal, state and local, I will vote Dem or leave blank. And it would take completely immoral idiots from both parties to make me leave it blank.
I haven’t “moved left”. I merely recognize the fact that our federal government has been seized by a gang of criminals and the Dems are the only tool available to try and stop the rot.
Do I wish that there was a way to reclaim our government with third parties and outsiders? Of course. But this is a brute force struggle and the little fish, for the foreseeable future, will need to be content to follow the school.
The way I see it, the only way to answer our national emergencies is to give a Democratic President a “super-majority” and a mandate to act, even if the actions are not ideal.
There is really only one issue in this election.
Accountability.
The GOP, for whatever reason, has placed the party’s elite above the country, the Constitution, and the Law. And, for that reason alone, I would be delighted to vote for every, half-way respectable, Democrat in the country.
That’s how I’ve decided to view the upcoming election. I don’t expect, or want, fundamental changes in how our government is constructed. I merely expect our next generation of elected and appointed officials to punish criminals, respect the Constitution, and acknowledge the fact that THEY are accountable to US!
And Glenn Beck is a miserable buffoon with the wit of a dead puppy.

I guessed Farsi earlier, but with outsourcing of RNC internet board trolling to India to save money, he might be Indian. Or it could be his 3 year old daughter trolling under his user name.

August 25th, 2008 at 11:32 pmI forget everything is outsourced nowadays. Wages are so much lower in Berzerkistan.
Dem’s convention or republican convention. You will hear the same crap. Like i said if you were listen or reading. you will hear the same thing the next 4 years.
So how many here vote?? I never got a answer.
As for the Troll comment. can you not come up something a little more original? It seem so, well I guess childish.

Wild guess. Clinton!
Thanks To Bill and China-Mart “that is Walmart for you Liberals” . Everything now is make in China.
Their is not any Slave Labor their. Right!!
August 25th, 2008 at 11:42 pmJoe says:

I would say far, far above average. I only know about myself (primaries, off-years, and everything since 1972). I know the people here really follow the issues.
Know how many voted in the Republican Revolution of 1994? 18% Republican: 17% Democratic: 65% did not vote. Some revolution!

Like i said Childish.
So Liberal Philosophies are so much more vast Superior? Right.

NO One is seems.

Anyone saying The Right is Right as you did a few posts back…we are supposed to take you seriously? Right in what way, the economy, foreign policy, America’s standing in the world, the environment, the strength of the dollar??? Please explain to us how the right is right. Seeing that you won’t, because you can’t, that makes you simply a pathetic GOP/Bush loving leg humping whore (if you don’t like troll, we will go with that). Live with it. If you don’t like how you are treated go to Redstate or some other web site filled with fellow GOP/Bush loving leg humping whores. You will fit right in.
August 25th, 2008 at 11:47 pmNot Clinton. In 1981, Reagan began rewarding big corps by giving them tax breaks to move jobs overseas. Progressives are opposed to NAFTA aznd GATT. You are not telling us anything we do not already know.
Under Carter, the US had the largest trade surplus in the world (as usual). It took about 2 years of Reagonomics to give us the world’s largest trade deficit. It has been that way ever since. Worse every year under Dubya.

I’ve been voting Democratic since 1972. Lucky for you there’s no literacy test to keep you from voting. Thank the Democrats for that.
August 25th, 2008 at 11:55 pmJoe,
August 25th, 2008 at 11:55 pmGet a decent almanac and look up what years the US had a trade surplus and what years it changed into a trade deficit. It is not a matter of opinion. You are very wrong in thinking it began under Clinton. Do you know that WalMart tells its employees to vote Republican?
No, stupid troll. The “rest of the story” is that the mistakes of one administration don’t excuse the mistakes of another. Clinton most certainly didn’t start the bleeding of manufacturing jobs. And he didn’t start an effing Crusade which has destroyed the American economy and destroyed our standing with civilized nations. You’re eight years late with your complaints about Billy.
Flippy McSpin and his neocon masters, on the other hand, are a clear and present danger to the continued existence of our nation and society. And anyone who can’t see that is either blinded by nationalistic preconceptions or profoundly unintelligent and dishonest.

You are correct. In 1978 I was a buyer working for a machine tool manufacturer. I remember buying big motors (20-50HP) from GE. Suddenly leadtimes went out to 16-18 weeks. When I asked about it, I was told that GE moved their motor building operation to Mexico to say money. I remember thinking back then…well, if all of the stuff gets outsourced, who’ll have the money here to buy anything? Guess we’re seeing the endgame play out.
August 26th, 2008 at 12:02 amoops typo….”moved their motor building operation to Mexico to save money.”
That’s how you correct posts, Joe.

August 26th, 2008 at 12:26 amYou too trolls.
Well, Glenn Beck, you should be ashamed of yourself…you profess to follow the Savior…and this is what you encourage your fellow brothers and sisters to do to the planet? I am sure you know that we are suppose to be stewards of the earth, not destroyers….shame on you! I can’t wait to see how you will explain your actions to our loving father and to your children. People of our faith usually CHOSE THE RIGHT, what happened to you??? I hope you reconsider this inexcusable behavior. I know you are desperate to help the GOP retain the white house and keep that band of criminals in power…it’s not going to happen. Barack Obama is a rightgeous man who will win the election fair and square in November. My family and I are helping him do that with our prayers and donating our time and money. Did you see the wonderful pic of Michelle Obama and the girls visiting the church authorities in SLC?? Barack Obama and his family are very respectful/open minded about everyone’s faith, including ours (yes, I am LDS, too). I don’t understand why LDS people keep kissing up to the republicans who hate us so much…The evangelicals were handing out flyers saying all kinds of horrendous lies about us when Romney was running…you will NEVER find a democrat doing such a thing…this is the party of respect,tolerance and inclusiveness. Everyone is welcome!!! Come on over to this side Glenn, the good side, I can testify to that…it’s not too late!!!
August 26th, 2008 at 1:31 amI have this idea that these sort of posts of Beck as he really is. Needs to be turned in to some sort of Game show.
Like jeopordy, Supply the answers of what Beck (for instance) said, without telling us. Then we must have the answer of ” Who is Glenn Beck’s phychiatrist? .
Get it?
August 26th, 2008 at 2:37 amYeah…and while he’s raising the carbon footprint he’s also encouraging his listeners into taking much needed water from drought-ridden areas. J. McCarthy Jr. is going for the double whammy on this one!
If anyone is interested, the man is coming to San Diego in September. I feel like if he’s still supporting this, we should make a citizen’s arrest on the charge of environmental damage, given SD and the state of California is in a drought right now.
August 26th, 2008 at 3:04 amSwine-faced corporate mediawhore Glenn Beck is another one of those allegedly recovering booze and drug users who has “found God” and Rightwing reactionary politics. Thoroughly disgusting creatures.

I think it may be due to Ratings??? But i could be wrong as most networks just give jobs to the first individual to show up for work. They don’t really care if anybody is watching or not as the Government picks up the tab for it all anyway.

Why is it on this forum, it seems you have to reach a new low with what you must think is so Humorous. But to be honest is not really funny at all. But i guess if that is the best you can do, Well i guess i am happy for you. But really is sad.
It really makes you think that the intellect level on this Forum has really hit rock bottom. But when it some to substance you have none to produce so you go after what ever comes to mind. SO sad indeed!
