    Why do you want abortion illegal?? "I'm pro-life. I would council to choose life." No shit, but why?!?!?

    She's always quick to tell us what we need, we need to limit the government, we need jobs, we need we need we need, golly gee......

    Why do we need and how the hell are you gonna do it for us, Sarah?!?!?!?
    Sounds like how the current president got elected....long on ideas, short on substance. Why was it Obamania in '08, but Palin get crushed by the media for the same tactics?

    Oh right......the liberal bias. My Mistake.
    I'm not the media and last time i checked the highest rated news was that of Fox, so it's safe to say that Obama is getting crushed for those tactics too.

    Why is everyone so hung up on the media around here? I don't give a shit what the media says and does. I don't care how the media paints someone. I'm taking about the words that come out of their mouth. Their belifs and ideas...

    You'd think the ppl in this country would be looking to move beyond these weak politicians that they annoint every two years and look for someone with some substance.

    We see that Obama is not the answer, so we look to Sarah Palin??? C'mon....I've never voted for president and maybe never will. Look at the choices they give us. It's pathetic.....

    I happen to believe that Sarah Palin will be the Republican nominee for President in 2012. I also believe that many powerful Democrats are hoping for this, as many Republicans rooted for Hilary Clinton in 2008. There is just a wealth of ammunition with which to attack her, beginning with the fact that she quit her elected job as Governor. I think the Democrats really want to keep her name front and center, and that this will only intensify as we approach the Presidential primary season.

    I give Beck credit for that. Nobody else wanted anything to do with Ron Paul.

    Beck continually criticized Ron Paul and his followers and even went as far as to label us dangerous.
    Are you sure about that? I always remember Beck praising Dr. Paul.

John Stossel has a great show on fox business Thursday nights. Glenn Beck is pretty good (except foreign policy), Cavuto has always been one of my favorites, Judge Napolitano has a show called Freedom Watch which is excellent as well and the hosts of the Fox Business channel throughout the day aren't too bad. If you are gonna watch Fox, watch these people. Most of them get it.
    No Hannity?
    Nope. Hannity doesn't believe in civil liberties like the others I mentioned. He's all for the endless war on terror and sees our security as the most important issue. Like Ben Franklin said, "They who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety."

    Good little conversation between Beck and Ron Paul on the CIA and foreign policy, a little less then a month ago



    Strange how opinions change when it becomes convenient.

    I don't even know what Beck really is, because he just changes with whatever gets him the ratings.

    I am no fan of Beck but that video is a cropped hit piece made to make him look bad as possible. There is no context to his words, just short statements. I admittedly do not listen to Beck much, but I prefer to make judgements on someone's comments in the proper context.

    Would it not be a good thing if Beck is embracing more of Ron Paul's ideas? Whatever Beck's motives the more people that get a chance to hear Paul the better.

    No I don't think it would be good. I loathe fake people, especially those are change their views for personal gain. The biggest example of this being Hannity who used to be quite rational and has turned into the biggest neo-con shill.

    If most people think Ron Paul is nuts how does Beck get personel gain out of interviewing and agreeing with Dr. Paul???

    He is trying to capitalize on Paul's popularity by being one of the "cool outsiders" and not being part of the so called establishment.

    Hence, the reason he ran stories on FEMA camps and other theories.
  • captain_obvious
    Uhmmm, he ran stories on FEMA camps because IF true, it would have been a huge story. Instead, he found out they were faked and exposed them.

    Re: Matthews, he was OK in 1998. He's terrible today. Most men with tingling feelings running up their leg when another man speaks have issues.
