They get so close and then just blow it. Ye gods help them.

It is amazing to watch how people like this be such destructive influences. When I was a kid the other side (no matter what side you were on) was usually 'the loyal opposition' or 'esteemed colleague from across the aisle'. Thanks to this, those poor saps who can't think for themselves are convinced we are lost in darkness and a danger to the country.................

Social insanity is a contagious disease that spreads when psychopath con-artist use the spoken word to spread utterly ridicules pathological bullshit, of which is intended to totally deceive and mislead naive week-minded sheepeople.

Maybe someday, if the World ever gains enough sanity, the sick fuck pieces of shit like Glen Beck will be locked up in an insane asylum where they can no longer do harm to week minded conservatives / gullible fools .

They can keep on having their pity party circle jerk for the next 2 years and then sit around and wonder in amazement at the next ass kicking they receive when the Dems take back the house in '14, and again when we achieve a 60-seat Senate and the presidency in '16 and then AGAIN when Joe Biden is elected to a second term in '20 with a landslide that makes Reagan-Mondale '84 look like a close race!

These crazies THINK that because they can fill a room or get enough idiots to tune in to make advertisers want to lie to them in droves that it means EVERYONE believes their religious-based hyper-inanity. Good. Keep thinking that way gang...it was the rise of these very religious nuts that started the demise of the Republican Party and now demographics and simple math make it inevitable that they are done as a national party without a complete 180 turn....doesn't sound like Rush, Glenn or the rest have gotten that message yet.

I will take great glee in watching them cut their own throats now out of spite....the world is about to become a much better place as they take the message from their failed standard bearer and self-deport right out of national political relevance.

"God's not going to to what others did in Benghazi, and leave one man behind." Then why didn't he stop it from happening? I mean isn't he all powerful? Not trying to offend and religious persons here. I just wanted to point out the stupidity that is Glenn Beck.

Beck's on record as professing to be an "entertainer" - first and foremost. Some entertainers are purveyors of drama or comedy, but Glen's forte is fear. Hell, if I was ignorant enough to believe everything someone said to me with a straight face, I'd be cowering in a cave somewhere. Fortuneately, there's enough of us reasoning, questioning sorts afoot to groan at Beck's poor drama and laugh at his duped audiences. Remember - his stupid schtick was odorous enough to have him booted from FOX. Think about Jonestown, think about Waco - will Beck eventually offer kool-ade to escape the woes of freedom?

These people are nothing more than conspiracy theorists willfully searching for ways to construct a system of ideas which gives the answers they are seeking. That's how the bubble is built.

This one is burst, hope the chemtrails people are next.

True - they have them selfs made into a bubble, a big bubble where they was Cosby inside their bobble, and now that the reality is setting in, they have no clue what so ever to what to do outside of the bobble.. For years and years and the some years they painted them self into a corner, in the infamous bobble where they have been for the last 30 or so years...

They really believed they could just outright buy the election, and continue the right wing marsh to a US no one else would remember - to an imagined future, based on a imagined past who never was..

Now they have to come to the facts, and it is always painfully to do that - but I suspect it will take years, and years for the more extremes to come to grasp with the reality of it all... I suspect, US will need at least 20 or 30 years with Democratic presidents, to solve and to repair the damage 30 year of hard-right wing ideology have made US into...

The pendle have starting to turn left again, after a long, long right wing turn... Hopefully it will take years and years with the left leaning pendle - Obama is just the start of it..
