i must respectfully disagree. he is a fear monger and an attention whore. he spreads disinformation at will and hopes people latch on.

but he makes a s**t ton of money by doing it so, ya know, i guess he is living the american dream ...

I like how he stirrs up questions and gets people out of their comfort zone thinking about the what ifs? Even if what he says is disinformation Im not saying I follow him. I just like how he speaks against things showing that yes not every American agrees with you[the government]. People still need to get the facts and choose how they feel about issues themselves.

I am a conservative, I personally hate Glenn Beck for the that reason Supercat said. I personally listen to Neal Bortz. I like Neal, sometimes I can stand Sean Hannity and Rusty Humphrey, but I mainly listen to Neal.

that is an interesting point of view. that is very much like saying it is okay for random folks to come along and claim someone is hacking in a video game. it may not be true (and easily disproved) but its okay to say it because it is stirring people up and speaking against something/one. ever thought of it that way? if it were okay to just say random s**t because it maybe will strike a nerve, may not be true, but makes you money then libel wouldn't be illegal.

at any rate, these talking heads like limbaugh, beck, and olberman are dangers. all they are after is division within the country and higher ratings at the cost of unity. they may profess to be out against people on both sides of the aisle, but really they aren't. they are just playing to the crazy left or right (depends on who we are discussing) because those people are willing to throw their money away at the tip of a hat. or become outraged on flimsy premises. is there corruption in our government? hell yes. but going at it like these folks do is not beneficial to the country. there has got to be a way to expose it in a bipartisan manner. there has got to be a way to unite the country to solve our problems that doesn't involve fear mongering and hate breeding against each other just because of political differences. both the left and the right are out for the same goal, the promotion of the us and strength of its people, but come from slightly different views. if people would just approach it that way, nothing wrong with differences, instead of buying into the hate spewed from talking heads our politics might just be respectable again.
