Dear AGIR,

Perhaps you consider you may have answered my question with; “He certainly seems to have mischaracterized some parts of that story,.. that does NOT make him a 'liar'”.

If so then there is little point in me acceding to your request that I “point to a particular story... from a particular show and then.. offer counter argument to the point he makes” since you, by your own words have shown you are incapable of being able to tell the difference between a mischaracterization and a lie. Beck can.

Further when I quote Beck directly you call it misleading.

Then you seem to imply that I am slurring him when I most certainly am not. All I have done is heap praise on his ability and let you know that I on occasion have felt sorry for him.

I think of him as having much in common with WWF wrestlers, capable of terrific stunts and showmanship. Instead of his body he works with his mouth. Try and tell him in public that most of it is fake and the reaction is something like the slapping this reporter got (this bloke looks like Beck on steroids) but most of us know the score.

Some like yourself want to believe it is real but that doesn’t make it so. The quotes I gave you from Beck shows he knows we know but carries on regardless.

I’m happy to cheer with the best of them through the bout, but you appear determined to remain in the bleachers with your signed copy of a Glenn “Hulk Hogan” Beck poster clasped firmly in your hand.

Smoke and mirrors, time to move on mate.

Dear Foxy,

Beat this. Referring to the hospitalization of Woods' mother-in-law, Beck stated: "Well, there was a woman taken to the hospital last night at O.J.'s -- I mean, I'm sorry, Tiger Woods' house. I'm not saying that it was an assault or anything else, I'm just -- you know, Tiger, it's -- we are starting to lose control here."

I mean he leaves South Park for dead!

CJ.. you get what_you_are_worthy of :)

CSTEELE.. yessssss... I knowwwww BECK is somewhat like WWF-at times..

I don't think you have been following the programs over an extended period, i.e.. the GB show in the mornings and repeated in the evenings on FOX Tv. You might be jumping on him for some of his CNN days stuff or his radio stuff..where he does get very *hysterical* at times...nooooo argument from me there.

You say He is a liar.. I'll say he got mixed up and carried away..and his portrayal of the view event was incorrect in all details.

Ok..let's call him " a man who lied on one occasion".. sheesh..I'm sure he has done that same thing more than once.. but not in a malicious "Now..I'm going to LIE here" way.. more likely carried away.

That does not make him any more of a 'liar' (settled position) than it does YOU.. so get off that hyper pedantism or I'll give you a dose of Proxy :)

WHY....would I admire and/or follow his programs? It's very simple..since I came across the incredibly incestuous socialist/communist/prograssive network which I have VERIFIED 100% it blew my mind.. Now.. just in case you didn't catch that VER----I----FIED! Do you understand now ? "That" is why I said "Pick an argument" he makes and rip it to pieces with facts.. go on. -I dare ya.

Dear POIROT...yep.. most of what you said seems to fit. The 'Skewed' rather than fair and balanced ? Not sure about that. Yes it shows the socialist networks, and rails against over spending.. but I don't see how that is 'skewed'. The extras get a bit tiresome..except Courtney Friel :) ooooweee.. my she has a way of standing/sitting which wreaks of "look at meeeee".. she also has a lovely smile.
I offer the same challenge I gave to CmildSteele...find a position he took on something..and rip it to pieces with ONLY facts which are verifiable. Try "CRIME INC"

As to fair and balanced :) errr hmmm NBC ? Keith Olberman ? errr Media Matters (aka Soros compliant news) ? come come.

Dear csteele,

We lived and worked in the US for close
to ten years. My children were born there.
People like Beck are very common. For
example, nearly a thousand American radio
stations and over eighty television stations
are devoted to religious programming, most
of which promotes the fundamentalist message.

Prime-time preachers have become national
celebrities whose messages are heard in
millions of homes. The established churches
tend to look askance at these presentations,
claiming they give a narrow, emotional, and
superficial view of complex moral and political
issues. Fund-raising appeals in the electronic
church generates huge sums of money for the
fundamentalist cause, sometimes through techniques
that make other theologians wince. Oral Roberts,
for example, once described his conversations with
a 900-foot-tall Jesus - who promised that Roberts's
medical center would discover the cure for cancer,
provided supporters send a specific monthly
contribution...

In a country where this is considered normal behaviour -
people like Beck (showmen) can absolutely thrive.
The greater the ignorance, the greater the dogmatism,
and vehemence.

Dear Foxy,

“Cervantes smiled Spain's chivalry away; A single laugh demolished the right arm Of his country.” George Byron.

Thank you for laughing with me.

Dear CmildSTEELE.... I note with interest your utter lack of ability to find an argument/assertion of Becks re say.."Crime Inc" which you can then demolish.

Obviously you don't have the material or the ticker.... so.. I win :)

Foxy ? poor foxy.. good grief... even if she was staring 'a x b x c'=abc or 2+2=4 and if it was not on a "progressive"(i.e..degenerate) station she would not believe it.

Foxy.. u do amaze me. why not look at 'crime inc' and see if you can pull the plug on the connections/network...? I guess you also can't do it eh?

Do you disagree that the Gore, Zoy, Roy,Strong,Soros grouping plus their various foundations.. plus the various assorted communists such as Van Jones, Jed Brandt, Bill Ayers, Joel Rogers are out to change America into a Socialist state and make a truckload of money in the process ?

OH.. you don't know who half of them are ? I thought as much Foxy.. not only in denial but also plain ignorant.

Here's one for you....

Beck says of Rogers "He claims we could shut down every power station and take every car off the road and still not get down to 60% of CO2 Emissions"...THEN...he shows Rogers in a clip saying that very thing.

Now..you can sling of from your throne of ignorance as much as you like... it will not change the reality one iota.

Wheres Proxy...?
