I would be less generous; Glenn Beck is an unhinged loon who helps give conservatism a bad name.

Usually as I'm breezing my way up to the History Channel or HD Channel I will stop and listen to this guy. Really, he nuts. I just shake my head and then go watch American Pickers or Pawn Stars.

Pawn Stars is awesome.

Ok, I think I get the picture now as to this guy. But if tens of thousands of people turn up to this rally what does that say?

That no one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American people?

Which is unfortunate because, if I recall correctly, he's more of a libertarian than a conservative.

I could be wrong on that number, though.

He's more of a social engineer than an economist, which is really the point of his whole rally. So, he's Neo-Con through and through. It cannot be overstated how much harm the talk radio crowd has done to American Conservatism.

I hope the cameras are rolling to expose the amount of racists the various claimed "moderate" rallies swarm with.

Keep the rallies coming! Every rally is a chance to expose the racists within it to the world.

Yeah the place is packed with racists. Get your racist t-shirt for the event.

We signed the Wellington Declaration a couple of years ago and it came into effect the beginning of this month...that means we have a load of cluster munitions we need to get rid of...if you can lend us the aircraft...we could solve two problems in one.

Sorry but we can't even afford to keep our aircraft flying anymore. Have you seen our Air Force lately? Its down to oversize RC Planes. Best we can do is give you something to violate Declaration 1 of the Hague Convention of 1899.

Yup Sharpton and his goons should make for a good show.

I knew the racisist card would quickly come out. Sure as the sun rises.

I read that Sharpton is dedicating a place by the Lincoln Memorial to King on the same day. Personally, I would reschedule this usless rally of Becks and allow Sharpton to go on with the dediction. I'm not a Sharpton fan but I see this is the right thing to do concerning dedicating the piece of land for the memorial.

Judging by the polls, I'm not sure he's done any harm at all.

Hey, I agree that the guy's a bit of a loon. But he certainly is striking a chord with people.

Are you kidding me? Neo-Conservatism has failed. It's why we have a Democratic majority in the house and senate and a Democrat in the White House all at the same time. As a Paleo-Conservative, I find myself completely disheartened by the state of affairs in the Republican Party.

And one should not take dissatisfaction with the current party in power as tacit approval of the opposing party. That would be foolish. Personally, I am not happy with the current state of the Democratic Party governement, but at the same time cannot think of a single Republican candidate of whom I would be more confident. It is a sad state of affairs, and likely contributes to my disgust with the political.
