• Group Films Launch of 200 Paper Planes From Edge of Space

  In reply to demsaredumb.

  Make no mistake, I have no problem with this at all, and like many of you, I think it is a kind of fun story. I did however immediately think about EU and now US laws concerning e-waste. I’m not allowed to throw away my old calculator anymore, but these people were allowed to drop 200 memory cards around the world and into our oceans… pretty much for the heck of it. Not sure how this was approved in the EU. Seems to fly in the face of these regulations (pun intended). Again, I am not at all concerned about the pollution aspect of this, but couldn’t help thinking about the UN driven e-waste regulations. Not trying to spoil a fun story, just some food for thought.

• Beck Slams Matthews Over ‘Balloon Head’ Bachmann Depiction

  yet another unsubstantiated accusation from a lib. You guys simply refuse to provide any evidence to support your statements. Again, this is why you and your arguments totally lack any credibility. You say its a malicious lie, and that is what Beck does, yet you fail to explain why its lie or provide any contradictory evidence, or any evidence of other lies. Your statements merely amount to worthless whining devoid of substance… much like the entire programming platform at BSNBC. Don’t worry, you may have a future job with them, since that is exactly what they do. They yell over any opponent they face, they never provide any evidence or facts to support what they say, etc. Just a bunch of emotional whining and baseless opinions. My dad used an expression when I was young and would yell when arguing… empty drums make the most noise. Your drum is clearly empty. Fill it with some substance then speak. I, and I’m sure others here would be happy to debate legitimate issues with you, but that doesn’t seem to be possibly.

  That’s your argument? Pretty weak and filled with emotion once again. I’m not gonna waste too much of my time on this, but the truth hurts and sometimes offends especially those who are easily offended… especially when they are looking for reasons to be offended. The Darwin comment as I understands it is a reference to the fact that Hitler had determined that there was a genetic superiority in play, and that for the good of the superior, the inferior had to be eliminated. Valid reference as disturbing as Hitler’s position was. As for Soros, like it or not and regardless of his age or circumstances at the time, witnessing and participating in what he did, and later professing pride about it certainly would qualify him as a less than sensitive person at this point. God washing the country in blood is a biblical position regarding the immorality that our country is adopting, and from a strong Christian, also a valid opinion. The biblical flood being an example of God “cleansing the earth” of its morality. Whether you believe or not should have no bearing on whether he should be able to believe this. In general, your position is pathetic, the protesters were laughable, and once again, emotions rule your argument rather than facts or anything of real substance. Clearly Beck uses dramatic references and imagery to make some of his points. Pretty sure your boys on the left do too, and more so. Once again though, the substance is what I look for, and it is sadly lacking again in the protest and your argument. Just go hang with your soft, politically correct, crybabies, and don’t look to the right for help when all of your civil liberties have been taken away for the sake of the “betterment of the nation” (like happened in Germany, N Korea, Iran, Cuba, etc).

  You provide yet another example of a liberal saying a whole lot of nothing. You provide opinion and emotion, but no facts. You can’t hang on a site where so many people provide facts and evidence to support their positions… as Beck ALWAYS does. The chalkboard, quotes, and citations are used to provide facts and evidence to support what he says. When do you and your boys provide such evidence? Much like you, they merely provide opinions and interpretations without substance. This is why you and yours lack so much credibility. You say Beck has contradicted himself so many times but you fail to provide an example. When arguing in a court of law, one must supply evidence. Telling the judge that you shouldn’t be convicted does not work. He/she needs to know WHY. You and yours should apply this approach when attempting to “discuss” things here. Until then, you remain nothing but humor for us. Not much of a “thinker” actually. I think you are just a fool until PROVEN otherwise.

• Shocking: Video Surfaces of Taliban Stoning Couple for Alleged Adultery

  Let’s try something… argue with facts instead of feelings. Does Islam provide for two options with regard to non believers… conversion or death?

  Clearly you get your “info” from outlets that believe like you do. Search shariah law in Oklahoma, then go away. Unfortunately it doesn’t take a million people to kill a million people as can be seen in the Nazi situation, 911, etc. As for the “harmless old lady”, I feel that anyone that incites civil unrest and violent rebellion through their instruction of our youth is not harmless.

• Insidious & Scary: Frances Fox Piven Answers Glenn Beck

  January 24, 2011 at 8:04pm

  It is very scary that this woman is able to teach in this country. At a City University none the less. Tax dollars? So much for providing information without obvious bias. Anyway, I find it interesting that her eyes are constantly shifting as she speaks. Never looking at the camera except when she stops talking. Then the expression at the end?! That is as scary as what she promotes. We need to stop letting extremists indoctrination our youths, especially during such an impressionable period in their lives. I think she should be arrested as a domestic terrorist, but she should at least be one of the unemployed effective immediately.

• Dems’ Enemy Amnesia: Obama or Palin – Who’s Really Responsible for Ramping Up the Rhetoric?

  Some more food for thought. Although he is no politician, I was reminded of a Neil Young documentary that was shown in its entirety on PBS (yes, public brodcasting) and used as part of a pledge drive. The final performance of the program was an original Neil Young song that called directly for the assasination of Bush. Nice peaceful public programming performed by, presented by, and used as a fund raiser for, the left. Good stuff folks.
