This is what patriotic conservatives are being told to do this week by Glen Beck
INCREASE YOUR CARBON FOOTPRINT to offset any savings made at the Dem Convention. So thoughtful, smart people want to assist the planet in some small way and because they are liberals their efforts have to be countermanded? If this is supposed to be humor its just another conservative failure. beck wants people to drive more, use more appliances, take longer and more hot showers, leave the dryer running. It boggles the mind. Imagine what the planet would be like if there weren't any liberals.

To any lurkers, you fucking people are beyond pathetic.

3. He is a very typical sheep - I bet he's been "a prayin" for rain
to ruin the convention too. It makes me wonder HOW we could all possibly be from the same planet.

5. There's no sin in being ignorant
We're all ignorant in some ways. But to be willfully, stubbornly ignorant is a class in itself. And that's the only time you'll see a reference to Glenn Beck from me that uses the word "class."

6. Striving to be ignorant should be a sin of somesort
"Conservatives" are way too high maintenance. They cost our country and planet a helluva lot on a daily basis with their "values." Being stupid and polluting the planet on purpose. Fucking brilliant!

paying an ignoramus to preach nonsense on television.

7. Beck
Beck has really gone off the edge of the map since McCain become the Republican nominee. There was an Op Ed on CNN by Beck last week about how he didn't have a candidate in this race because McSame is just tooooooooo moderate (yeah, right). Dude has just lost it...that or it's all just one big pander for the "shock" ratings.

8. I listened for a few minutes
this morning on my grocery run cause I can't handle the substitute on my usual station. beck was ragging on Biden as if the choice of Dem VP would have made a difference about what he would do this morning. I guess those kind don't find it very sad that that is the only way they can make a living.

22. Yeah, I read his editorials sometimes
because it's good to know what the other side is thinking. Even my dad, a moderate southern conservative thinks the Beck and Limbaughs of the airwaves have pretty much lost their minds. I have to admit I find their insane screeds a little bit funny in a "wow, he really, seriously means that" sort of way...terrifying, but still funny. The fact that the Becks and Limbaughs of the world "don't have a conservative candidate to vote for" in this coming election is funny.

9. He is the biggest reason I refuse to watch CNN
anymore. Just the fact that they give this asshole a platform is enough for me to block them on my teevee.

10. I have a friend with a mindset like this
Even if you could show them 100% proof positive that we're harming the planet, but there were three simple, easy things to do to not harm the planet, they still would because they don't go along with anything that liberals support.

15. I visisted this friend after not seeing him for a while
He had a couple of paper bags of crushed cans on his porch, and I asked him if he was either into recycling or was just facing hard times. He said that he saved his cans for a guy who needs the money. I told him, "That's good and all, but you're still recycling by proxy." He didn't like that.

13. More inane clucking from yet another republicon Chickenhawk propagandist
Edited on Mon Aug-25-08 11:02 AM by SpiralHawk
Glen "Can't-scuff-my-Gucci-Loafers-draft-dodging republicon-chickenhawk" Beck has no honor, no depth, and merits no respect because of his profound republicon hypocrisy.

14. Liberals should campaign for people not to jump off bridges.....
....so Beck and his gang of mindless mouth-breathers will go plunge to their deaths in response.

20. This is why we need the fairness doctrine. This crap needs to be off the air.

21. Or some form of it
reagan did away with the fairness doctrine in the 80's giving birth to cro-limbaugh man. And they blather on about the "market." So if your audience is a bunch of racist idiot trash who don't mind being lied to that's okay because the market accepts it???

Two things conservatives fear:

- the fairness doctrine
- swearing to tell the truth

says volumes about their values.
