    Beck and others are "shock jocks." Throwing labels on people very loosely.

    These shows have dumbed down the conversation enough.

    True, and if they were honest, I would support their drive. In Canada, we have charitable orgs that do this type of work.

    True!
    As for Glen Beck (back on topic) have you noticed a not so subtle shift in his positioning?
    True! When he realised how he could stoke the fire and get Van Jones fired, he's been on a roll. FOX in general has been doing well in getting the news out about anti-American, racist crap and corruption.

And gee, are the NY Times, ABC and others making any money? Many leftie media are going bankrupt, I heard. I wonder why. Is it because they only cover the news the govt wants them to?

    I think loosely is the wrong adjective. Van Jones, ACORN -- done and dusted. SEIU is next.

    Here he is, the Champion of the Right in all his glory:



    Some people say that his tears contain magical healing properties and could cure cancer, however there is a massive left-wing media propaganda campaign to bury this information and therefore lots of elderly folks are needlessly dying and stuff.

    ^ As I keep saying, Beck is a shallow showman, and he's putting out a lot of books. He's cashing in on this genre.

    ^Mebbe, but he did a good job on Van Jones and ACORN. He's got lots to tackle now: cheating czars, SEIU, Obama admin. Glad to have him, even if he is theatrical.

    Glenn Beck is not the reason for Acorns problems. Two intrepid film makers (who had nothing to do with him) and a long standing inquiry into voter registration fraud are. Glenn Beck, along with the rest of Fox, just publicised it.

    You think the NY Times or MSNBC woulda taken on this story first? Anti-Obama? And why weren't the main stream INVESTIGATIVE reporters out on these shams? Two young kids break this story?

    Oh, and look, Time mag is shooting itself in the foot this week by publicizing Glenn Beck on its front cover and doing a big feature story. The libbies just can't get any more stupid. (OMG, they are so PO-ed that FOX has the biggest ratings snd is making money, while the leftie media is begging for cash and readers.)

    ^ I've read both stories in the 'leftie media', quite extensively actually.
    The fact they do not devote an inordinate amount of media time to it as does Fox (particularly Beck) is because they are not agenda driven.
    Acorn is not a political party, blaming Obama for their misdeeds is ridiculous.

    Agenda driven? The two young folks who did the ACORN "investigation" were agenda driven? They weren't paid by FOX or the GOP to do a smear campaign, but they knew FOX would air their tapes because FOX anchors like Beck want to expose corruption. What did Time call these kids, "guerilla activists"?
    SB, the NYT, Washington Post et al used to be the investigative reporting kings. Where are they now? If ACORN had supported Bush or McCain, the left would be all over it. Sure it is not a political party, but it helped drive the illegal, dead, and fictional citizens to register to vote for Obama.
    Who is blaming Obama for ACORN? He does have ties to them, tho.
    All of the left-wingers here refuse to see logic and you put down any questions or news about anything that attacks your socialist ideals. You lot are brain-washed.
    That's why FOX is creaming all the other networks in the polls -- hard-working American people are waking up and starting to question events and ties to corruption and where Obama is leading the country. The left's defense is anyone who questions Obama is racist and then poo-poos things like Van Jones' firing, the tea party rallies and ACORN as trivial.
    Yep, another day in the Dem camp.
    Altho TD Issues forum is decidedly libbie and filled with crackpots who still applaud their socialist govts but have escaped the drudgery of their home countries, I gotta be here to take the stand of reason.

    Threatening to poisen or beat members of Congress...is that terrorism...treason...in any way patriotic or even helpful?

    Beck's violent rhetoric and imagery. In attacking Democrats and progressives, Beck has invoked acts of violence, even after imploring his own audience not to turn violent.
    • Beck discussed "put[ting] poison" in Nancy Pelosi's wine. Beck imagined being invited to a "shindig" put on by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, saying: "So, Speaker Pelosi, I just wanted to -- you gonna drink your wine? Are you blind? Do those eyes not work? There you -- I want you to drink it now. Drink it. Drink it. Drink it. ... By the way, I put poison in your -- no, I -- I look forward to all the policy discussions that we're supposed to have -- you know, on health care, energy reform, and the economy." [Glenn Beck, 8/6/09]
    • Beck poured "gasoline" on an "average American, said: "President Obama, why don't you just set us on fire?" Bringing an actor onto his show to "demonstrate at least how I feel" about Obama's policies, Beck proceeded to pour water out of a gasoline can onto the actor, exclaiming: "President Obama, why don't you just set us on fire?" Beck went on to plead for "some sanity in our country for a second." [Glenn Beck, 4/9/09]
    • Beck listed people he'd like to "beat to death with a shovel." In 2001, Beck enumerated the various people that he "would want to kill with a shovel," or "line up" and "shoot ... in the head," including Rep. Charles Rangel (D-NY). [3/9/2001]

    Talk about shooting yourself in the foot, Jet. Yours must look like Swiss cheese. Case in point: here's part of a libbie critique of that libbie Time Magazine's story on Beck.

    How Time magazine enables Glenn Beck's lies
    September 17, 2009 4:17 pm ET

    Four years ago, Time magazine devoted its cover story to a puff-piece profile of Ann Coulter, the right-wing ideologue best known for serial lies and wishing death upon those she disagrees with (journalists included). Only, Time forgot about the lies and the bloodlust and portrayed Coulter in a remarkably kind light.
    Now, it's Glenn Beck's turn.
    In its new issue, Time features a cover profile of the Fox demagogue, written by David Von Drehle -- a profile that downplays or ignores Beck's defining qualities, draws false equivalencies between liberals and conservatives, portrays obvious lies as simple differences of perspective, and omits Beck's most shocking and outrageous statements.
    In the opening paragraph, Time describes last weekend's Beck-organized, right-wing temper tantrum in Washington, in which conservative activists got together to air a disparate array of sometimes contradictory grievances. Here's how it dealt with the size of the crowd, right in the first paragraph:
    If you get your information from liberal sources, the crowd numbered about 70,000, many of them greedy racists. If you get your information from conservative sources, the crowd was hundreds of thousands strong, perhaps as many as a million, and the tenor was peaceful and patriotic.
    But here's what Time left out: Those conservative sources are flat-out lying.
    Progressive media critics often point out that the media too frequently take a "he-said/she-said" approach to politics that boils down to, "Is the Earth flat or spherical? Opinions differ." That may seem like an exaggeration, but Time's handling of the crowd size dispute is virtually indistinguishable from that caricature.
    Actually, in some ways, it's less honest than the caricature. See, the 70,000 estimate didn't come from "liberal sources"; it came from sane sources, such as the Washington, D.C., Fire Department. Time portrayed the disparate estimates as equally-likely-to-be-true products of ideological observers. In fact, the large estimates from conservatives were clearly false, and the lower, accurate estimates came from official, nonpartisan observers -- and even from some conservatives like Beck's colleagues at Fox News.

    ^ Oh, sorry, would you prefer in Obama's pocket?

    Well, here's something to ponder, and mebbe Beck will target him next:

    Illegal Market Manipulation, Felony Insider Trading, Villain, Currency collapses

    Soros: Republic Enemy #1


    By Jim O'Neill Tuesday, September 15, 2009 “The main obstacle to a stable and just world order is the United States.”—George Soros
    “George Soros is an evil man. He’s anti-God, anti-family, anti-American, and
    anti-good.”
    —Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson
    Is it possible to lay the global financial meltdown, the radicalizing of the Democratic Party, and America’s moral decline, at the feet of one man?
    It is indeed possible.
    If George Soros isn’t the world’s preeminent “malignant messianic narcissist,” he’ll do until the real thing comes along. Move over, Hitler, Stalin, Mao, and Pol Pot. There’s a new kid on the block.
    What we have in Soros, is a multi-billionaire atheist, with skewed moral values, and a sociopath’s lack of conscience. He considers himself to be a world class philosopher, despises capitalism, and just loves social engineering.
    Uh oh. Can you say “trouble,” boys and girls?
    Soros is a real life version of Dr. Evil—with Obama in the role of Mini-Me. Which is not as humorous as it might at first sound. In fact, it’s bone-deep chilling.
    György Schwartz, better known to the world as George Soros, was born August 12, 1930 in Hungary. Soros’ father, Tivadar, was a fervent practitioner of Esperanto—a language invented in 1887, and designed to be the first global language, free of any national identity.
    The Schwartz’s, who were non-practicing Jews, changed the family name to Soros, in order to facilitate assimilation into the gentile population, as the Nazis spread into Hungary during the 1930s. Soros is an Esperanto word meaning “to soar.”
    In 1944 Hitler’s henchman Adolf Eichmann arrived in Hungary, to oversee the murder of that country’s Jews. The Soros children were all given fake identity papers, and were shipped out to various Christian families. George Soros ended up with a man whose job was confiscating property from the Jewish population. Soros went with him on his rounds.
    Soros has repeatedly called 1944 “the best year of his life.”
    In an article in the Wall Street Journal, Joshua Muravchik notes that, “70% of Mr. Soros’s fellow Jews in Hungary, nearly a half-million human beings, were annihilated in that year. They were dying and disappearing all around him, and their numbers no doubt included many whom he knew personally. Yet he gives no sign that this put any damper on his elation, either at the time or indeed in retrospect.”
    During an interview with “Sixty Minute’s” Steve Kroft, Soros was asked about his “best year:”
    Sweetness & Light
    KROFT: My understanding is that you went out with this protector of yours who
    swore that you were his adopted godson.
    SOROS: Yes. Yes.
    KROFT: Went out, in fact, and helped in the confiscation of property from the Jews.
    SOROS: Yes. That’s right. Yes.
    KROFT: I mean, that sounds like an experience that would send lots of people to the
    psychiatric couch for many, many years. Was it difficult?
    SOROS: Not, not at all. Not at all.
    KROFT: No feeling of guilt?
    SOROS: No.
    Of course he didn’t feel guilty. Soros has the moral depth of a clam. Nonetheless, he has said, “my goal is to become the conscience of the world.”
    In his article, Muravchik describes how Soros has admitted to having “carried some rather potent messianic fantasies with me from childhood, which I felt I had to control, otherwise they might get me in trouble.”
    Can you imagine the results of this messianic sociopath being “the conscience of the world?” Ye gods.
    Be that as it may. After WWII, Soros attended the London School of Economics, where he fell under the thrall of fellow atheist and Hungarian, Karl Popper, one of his professors. Popper was a mentor to Soros until Popper’s death in 1994. Two of Popper’s most influential teachings concerned “the open society,” and Fallibilism.
    Fallibilism is the philosophical doctrine that all claims of knowledge could, in principle, be mistaken. Then again, I could be wrong about that.
    The “open society” basically refers to a “test and evaluate” approach to social engineering. Regarding “open society” Roy Childs writes, “Since the Second World War, most of the Western democracies have followed Popper’s advice about piecemeal social engineering and democratic social reform, and it has gotten them into a grand mess.

    In 1956 Soros moved to New York City, where he worked on Wall Street, and started amassing his fortune. He specialized in hedge funds and currency speculation.
    Soros is absolutely ruthless, amoral, and clever in his business dealings, and quickly made his fortune. By the 1980s he was well on his way to becoming the global powerhouse that he is today.
    In an article Kyle-Anne Shiver wrote for “The American Thinker” she says, “Soros made his first billion in 1992 by shorting the British pound with leveraged billions in financial bets, and became known as the man who broke the Bank of England. He broke it on the backs of hard-working British citizens who immediately saw their homes severely devalued and their life savings cut drastically…almost overnight.”
    In 1994 Soros crowed in “The New Republic” that “the former Soviet Empire is now called the Soros Empire.” The Russia-gate scandal in 1999, which almost collapsed the Russian economy, was labeled by Rep. Jim Leach, then head of the House Banking Committee, to be “one of the greatest social robberies in human history.” The “Soros Empire” indeed.
    In 1997 Soros almost destroyed the economies of Thailand and Malaysia. At the time, Malaysia’s Prime Minister, Mahathir Mohamad, called Soros “a villain, and a moron.” Thai activist Weng Tojirakarn said, “We regard George Soros as a kind of Dracula. He sucks the blood from the people.” (Source)
    The website Greek national Pride reports, “[Soros] was part of the full court press that dismantled Yugoslavia and caused trouble in Georgia, Ukraine and Myanmar [Burma]. Calling himself a philanthropist, Soros’ role is to tighten the ideological stranglehold of globalization and the New World Order while promoting his own financial gain. He is without conscience; a capitalist who functions with absolute amorality.”
    France has upheld an earlier conviction against Soros, for felony insider trading. Soros was fined 2.9 million dollars. (Source)
    Recently, his native Hungary fined Soros 2.2 million dollars for “illegal market manipulation.” Elizabeth Crum writes that “The Hungarian economy has been in a state of transition as the country seeks to become more financially stable and westernized. [Soros’] deliberately driving down the share price of its largest bank put Hungary’s economy into a wicked tailspin, one from which it is still trying to recover.” (Source)
    Soros’ grasp, greed, gluttony have a global reach

    My point here is that Soros is a planetary parasite. His grasp, greed, and gluttony have a global reach.
    But what about America? Soros told Australia’s national newspaper “The Australian” “America, as the centre of the globalised financial markets, was sucking up the savings of the world. This is now over. The game is out,” he said, adding that the time has come for “a very serious adjustment” in American’s consumption habits.
    Ready to tighten your belts, America?
    World financial crisis was”stimulating” and “in a way, the culmination of my life’s work.”

    Soros also told “The Australian” that the world financial crisis was”stimulating” and “in a way, the culmination of my life’s work.”
    Stimulating. Have you found the job losses, house foreclosures, and incredible national debt—stimulating? Me neither.
    Obama has recently promised 10 billion of our tax dollars to Brazil (yes, billion with a “b”), in order to give them a leg-up in expanding their offshore oil fields. Obama’s largesse towards Brazil, came shortly after Soros invested heavily in Brazilian oil (Petrobras).
    Tait Trussel writes, “The Petrobras loan may be a windfall for Soros and Brazil, but it is a bad deal for the U.S. The American Petroleum Institute estimates that oil exploration in the U.S. could create 160,000 new, well-paying jobs, as well as $1.7 trillion in revenues to federal, state, and local governments, all while fostering greater energy security.”
    Do you get the feeling that American taxpayers are being treated like gullible suckers?
    (By the way, if you want a short primer on Far Left economics—and a great cartoon from a 1911 St. Louis Post-Dispatch—go to actor Michael Moriarty’s website).

    A blog you might want to keep an eye on is SorosWatch.com. This is their mission: “This blog is dedicated to all…who have suffered due to the ruthless financial pursuits of…George Soros. Your stories are many and varied, but the theme is the same: the destructive power of greed without conscience. We pledge to tirelessly watch Soros wherever he goes and to print the truth in the hope that he will one day stop preying upon the world’s poor…that justice will be served.”
    Back to America. Soros has been actively working to destroy America from the inside out for some years now. People have been warning us. Two years ago Bill O’Reilly said on “The O’Reilly Factor” that “Soros [is] an extremist who wants open borders, a one-world foreign policy, legalized drugs, euthanasia, and on and on. This is off-the-chart dangerous….” (Source)
    In 1997 Rachel Ehrenfeld wrote, “Soros uses his philanthropy to change—or more accurately deconstruct—the moral values and attitudes of the Western world, and particularly of the American people. His “open society” is not about freedom; it is about license. His vision rejects the notion of ordered liberty, in favor of an ideology of rights and entitlements.”
    Perhaps the most important of these “whistle blowers” are David Horowitz and Richard Poe. Their book “The Shadow Party” outlines in detail how Soros hijacked the Democratic Party, and now owns it lock, stock, and barrel.
    Soros has been packing the Democratic Party with radicals, and ousting moderate Democrats for years. I don’t have time to do the subject justice in this article, but FrontPage’s Jamie Glazov has an excellent interview with Richard Poe, which will fill you in on many of the facts.
    The Shadow Party became the Shadow Government, which became the Obama Administration.
    DiscoverTheNetworks.org (another good source) writes, “By his [Soros’] own admission, he helped engineer coups in Slovakia, Croatia, Georgia, and Yugoslavia. When Soros targets a country for “regime change,” he begins by creating a shadow government—a fully formed government-in-exile, ready to assume power when the opportunity arises. The Shadow Party he has built in America greatly resembles those he has created in other countries prior to instigating a coup.”

    The above quote was, of course, written before the Presidential Election. So was the following quote from a November 2008 edition of the German magazine “Der Spiegel,” in which Soros gives his opinion on what the next POTUS should do after taking office. “I think we need a large stimulus package….” Soros thought that around 600 billion would be about right.
    Soros also said that “I think this is a great opportunity to finally deal with global warming and energy dependence. The U.S. needs a cap and trade system with auctioning of licenses for emissions rights.”
    Any of this sound familiar?
    Although Soros doesn’t (yet) own the Republican Party, like he does the Democrats, make no mistake, his tentacles are spread throughout the Republican Party as well.
    Soros is a partner in the Carlyle Group where he has invested more than 100 million dollars. According to an article by “The Baltimore Chronicle’s” Alice Cherbonnier, the Carlye Group is run by “a veritable who’s who of former Republican leaders,” from CIA man Frank Carlucci, to CIA head [and ex-President] George Bush, Sr.
    In late 2006, Soros bought about 2 million shares of Halliburton—Dick Cheney’s old stomping grounds.
    When the Democrats and Republicans held their conventions in 2000, Soros held Shadow Party conventions in the same cities, at the same time. Republican Senator John McCain was the keynote speaker at the “Soros Convention” (so labelled by the late Robert Novak) in Philadelphia.
    Soros has dirtied both sides of the aisle, trust me. And if that weren’t bad enough, he has long held connections with the CIA.
    And I musn’t forget to mention Soros’ involvement with the LSM (Lame Stream Media), the entertainment industry (e.g. he owns 2.6 million shares of Time Warner), and the various political advertising organizations he funnels millions to.
    As Matthew Vadum writes, “The liberal billionaire-turned-philanthropist has been buying up media properties for years in order to drive home his message to the American public that they are too materialistic, too wasteful, too selfish, and too stupid to decide for themselves how to run their own lives.”
    Richard Poe writes, “Soros’ private philanthropy, totaling nearly $5 billion, continues undermining America’s traditional Western values. His giving has provided funding of abortion rights, atheism, drug legalization, sex education, euthanasia, feminism, gun control, globalization, mass immigration, gay marriage and other radical experiments
    in social engineering.”
    Some of the many NGOs (None Government Organizations) that Soros funds with his billions are: MoveOn.org, the Apollo Alliance, Media Matters for America, the Tides Foundation, the ACLU, ACORN, PDIA (Project on Death In America), La Raza, and many more. For a more complete list, with brief descriptions of the NGOs, go to DiscoverTheNetworks.org.
    Poe continues, “Through his global web of Open Society Institutes and Open Society Foundations, Soros has spent 25 years recruiting, training, indoctrinating and installing a network of loyal operatives in 50 countries, placing them in positions of influence and power in media, government, finance and academia.”

    As I’ve said before, America currently faces the greatest challenge to its existence as a free republic since the Civil War. And as we go, so goes the world.
    So is Soros to blame for all of America’s woes?
    Without Soros, would the Saul Alinsky Chicago machine still be rolling? Would SEIU, ACORN, and La Raza still be pursuing their nefarious activities? Would Big Money and lobbyists still be corrupting government? Would our college campuses still be retirement homes for 1960s radicals? Yes, yes, yes, and yes—but to much less of a degree.
    The purpose of this article is to point out that without the financial skullduggery and Machiavellian manipulations of Soros, America would be a considerably safer, saner, and stabler place to live.
    America stands at the brink of an abyss, and that fact is directly attributable to Soros. Soros has vigorously, cleverly, and insidiously planned the ruination of America.
    His conduct has been immoral, duplicitous, and traitorous. Stripping Soros of his U.S. citizenship, should be one of the first steps taken during the upcoming courtroom trials.
    And trials there must be. No matter the cost, the nest of vipers on Capitol Hill, and all of the traitors in the government at large, must be brought to task for their behavior, or a free America is doomed.
    The words of Patrick Henry are apropos: “Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!”
    These days, Patrick Henry’s sentiment is more than just some quaint hyperbole from long ago—it’s a slow burning, but intense, glow that fires our courage and heart.
    Laus Deo.

    Sounds like a Capitalist Hero to me, Jet. Are you having some kind of Kumbaya Moment, or what? It's not like he took bonuses from taxpayers or something. Threw a few people out of their homes...screwed others out of their reitrement.... Ruthless, brutal, yes. And...? He's one of your own, Jet.

    This from a site that features a headline about the ACLU Trying to Make Christianity Illegal, and I'm supposed to have some faith in it.

    You meat-puppets get your talking points issued to your on a list about every two weeks, right? Lets see. First the Birther Lies: Done. The the He's a Muslim lie: Done. Then ACORN, and next SEIU, La Raza, Big Money and Lobbyists pursuing nefarious activities: Next on the agenda if only people would stop laughing.

    I explore these goof ball web sites and I see this Right Wing Underground surfacing like zombies out of the fetid sewage of the body politic, placards scrawled with poorly spelled cliches and bad puns about the Communist/Fascist/Nazi/Racist-Hater-of-White-People/Pretender-To-The-Title Commande In Chief.

    Kinda funny, but these are the people with guns, a poor grasp on reality and a very, very warped sense of justice. It's a good thing God's on their side, at least they can't rationalize something horrible on His behalf.

    (Here's a hint - the more 555s she uses, the more she knows she is wrong. That and red herrings and obfuscation . . . tried and tested)

    Ah, so you are telling me Time is right wing now? True, they were when they supported Chiang Kai Shek.
