    GBTV!

    I don't have a link on my phone but it's on the desnews.

    The tagline is reportedly "The Truth Lives Here." Awesome!
    "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

      Well, there goes the neighborhood...

      After concluding his Fox News program Thursday and being brutally assaulted by New York cultural elite fascist thugs earlier this week, Glenn Beck has had it with New York. So he's moving to Dallas, and renting this place for $20,000/month.

Beck's inspirational powers were not necessarily based in the quality of his ideas, but rather, Waters listened to Beck, saw that he was having some success in what he did, and felt that he (Waters) could do a better job. Mike has a pretty decent voice for radio, so maybe he could have succeeded. Mike went on to start CG, and that probably scratched whatever itch it was that he was feeling. Anyhow, Beck moving to Mike's neighborhood made me think about this.

          Glenn Beck before the financial crisis was better than Glenn Beck after. Before there really was a fusion of entertainment and the issues. I think Glenn lost his marbles when the crisis hit.

            I watched Mississippi Burning a couple of nights ago. I'd forgotten how the Klan members ranted about "protecting our way of life" and warning about the creep of communism into society. I thought I was watching Glenn Beck or a Tea Party rally.

              and they wonder why others suggest that the Tea Party might be racist.

                Why is the Tea Party singled out? Ever listen to people like Jeremiah Wright?

                  Because it isn't politically incorrect to insuate Beck and Tea Partiers are racist.

                  While not a fan of Beck's evolved ideas and the "my way or the hi-way" attitude of a lot of tea partiers, the claims they are racist are without merit.

                    It's an entirely different situation. His racism has little bearing or negative effect on any white person I know. In fact, I'd be interested to know if there are any examples where non-violent black against white racism had any negative effects on the discriminated white person. Please, do share.

                      I have gotten into loads of trouble at my history group by daring to criticize Glenn Beck:

                        It's different? That's a rather lame answer, don't you think? Why don't you share examples of non-violent tea partiers whose racism had negative effects on blacks? Just as I can't provide anything, neither can you, unless you believe the lies that Nancy Pelosi told about the day Obamacare was signed into law.

                        Racism is racism, isn't it?

                          So I guess there was no reason for Obama to distance himself from the man that married him, baptised his children, influenced the title of his autobiography, and was considered his religious "sounding board" for 20+ years of his life.

                            Someone needs to talk to Bro Beck about his timing.

                            On his monday morning show he compared the Norwegian youth camp to a Hitler Youth Camp.
