Beck/FOX hate machine takes aim at Jennings.

Beck "I think it's really funny to ambush a woman who had a miscarriage on the air as a joke" wants to take down another victim. We're clear on one thing. There is no end to his hate.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/1..._n_306950.html

We should forgive Beck because he went to AA. But we should dig 20 years into the past and crucify this guy because he should have exercised better judgment in a tough situation. Beck, when you exercised really, really bad judgment, was it a tough call? If I had been in Jennings shoes I'm not sure I would have known how to handle it. But I know what you did is wrong. My 10 year old would know. But you should get a pass and he should get thrown under the bus.

What a hate filled hypocrite.

An entire "News" network with the sole mission of undermining the President of the United States. Obama should send in the troops and take them off the air as a matter of National Security. Disrgracefull.

I remember standing up outta my chair several times just before the election. NBC was allowing folks to voice their opinion. What rattled me so badly? I believe it was the fact that folks were allowed to say all the good they wished to speak about Obama, but were cut short the second a question was raised conserning his credibility for office .. or legal status. Then comes the same deal with McCain, exept it was ass backwards. Folks were allowed to speak their hearts out long as they were trashing the old guy, but soon as two good words came out of their mouths about him ... they were cut short , or they news guy would bluntly cut them off. I personaly won't complain about Fox to bad.

I don't feel my vote counted, therefore I trust nobody but myself. We The People voted just for kicks in big brothers eyes as big brother knew exactly who big brother was gonna put in office hell or high water. It was just part of their plan IMO.

Yep, that is what Fox told you.

I agree with Eddie, Fox has gone to far and something needs to be done.
a policy of treason needs to be prosecuted.

Fox DID NOT TELL ME THAT. I learned that by seeing it myself on local channel 4 mornings, ( it's called Today and it's NBC ). After our local Nashville morning news, they show Today wich is switched over to ''live from New York'', still NBC. I seen the man and woman both in New York do that to people. It's not just me .. many locals were raged about it. I'm far from alone in seeing that. I didn't start watching our local Fox 17 until AFTER the election. But like I said, in my neck of thewoods, we don't trust nary one of 'em anymore, and thats the talk thats brought up about everytime folks run into each other in a store, on the bleachers at local ballgames, and at church too. Babtist by the way, as thats mostly what folks are here. Even our schools here still have prayer, and the highschool tells the kids if they never remember anything else they learned in school, at least remember to scream no to socialism. Our local kids hold this area close to heart and when a lady city slicker from out of state came to visit the highschool to talk to them about collage and explain to them how much they'd make, the first thing they asked was why? ''What'll we find here with a collage education? We here, we can buy a home or small farm and pay for it making 20k. We'd have to move away to benefit from collage and we have no desire to leave our way of life to live in another world where it costs way more to live, and not be happy with the new way of life to boot''. When the big town schools from two counties over come play our schools, they look at us like we are plum crazy for holding prayer followed by the National Anthem before the game starts. During halftime folks go out on the front walk to smoke, and sometimes you'll get to hear someone call their spouse who had to work and they'll say crap like , '' it's a good thing you didn't make it ... you won't believe what they do in school here .. it's a whole nother world over here ''.

Oh well, it's a good thing you can just go back home and get away from it after the game then isn't it

Uh, you're against collage and for religion in the schools. And you're for the public schools indoctrinating kids into your political view. Education is knowing. Ignorance may be bliss, and God knows I've wished I could un-know a lot of the things I've discovered. They've kept me awake at night and caused me all manner of discomfort that I didn't have as a child.

But in the end, knowing is knowing. And that's better than ignorance. It's the way forward. It brought us from the trees to the caves to fire to civilization. I've become a big fan of progress and quite happy that it keeps right on progressing despite the discomfort it brings my Republican friends. Change is scary. The future is scary. But standing still is downright horrifying. Especially if you love America and don't want to see the rest of the world pass us by.

Well, not much common ground with us I'm afraid. But I understand where you're coming from.

Take care,

Ed

But liberals love Al Gore don't they? His smalltown family farm is only about 12 miles from here. He grew up real smart and seeked a real good education and now crams global warming up everones rump while living in bigger and better upityville. We so badly need to consume less energy to save the planet, but have a look at what he consumes. C'mon, even George Dubya's home consumes less. Al got so darn smart ... that he lost his common sense.

The nature of life is change. By standing still you are effectively moving backward. I don't know how good that is for the children.

Tell me that the Native Americans had a bad life before the "Progressive" Europeans got here, not in my humble opinion.

Man is not the greatly evolved animal he tells himself he is, unless you consider killing for no gain, destroying his own environment and hating each other for a myriad of senseless reasons, evolution.

Now play some John & Yoko, and tell me how the world could be so much better if we just "Love" each other. Not gonna happen.

Thin the herd and spread them out where they can breath and stretch, it may be possible.

Hillbilly, I hope your part of the country never changes, but alas them smart cityslickers ain't never happy til everybody does as they see fit. They know better what "your" child should learn, Bullshit.

We have progressed ourselfs right out of being civil and happy.

Just my humble opinion.

Gotta go put the smack on some geese, try doing that in Central Park!

I agree. Many felt the same way.

There's a NEW website where we Mom's come together on values and thoughts...

And Glenn Beck is Big Brother. Every time you turn his hate filled trash on you cast another vote to keep it that way.
