Associated Press
When we talked a couple of weeks ago about Glenn Beck playing a feature role at a Texas fundraiser for Mitt Romney, it was the first time I'd thought about the extremist media personality in a long while. In 2010, the question was, "Glenn Beck, is that guy for real?" In 2012, it's become, "Glenn Beck, is that guy still around?"
The answer, apparently, is that Beck is still very much around, and despite his unhinged antics and twisted conspiracy theories, he's been sought out by the Republican presidential hopeful.
Mr. Beck has emerged as an unlikely theological bridge between the first Mormon presidential nominee and a critical electorate.... Mr. Beck's unique position as both a Mormon and a prominent voice among evangelicals has been too tempting for Mr. Romney's campaign to pass up. Campaign officials have quietly courted Mr. Beck, according to a person briefed on his meetings with campaign surrogates who could not discuss private conversations publicly. [...]
Last month, Mr. Beck, along with former Vice President Dick Cheney and Mr. Romney's son Josh, headlined a Dallas fund-raiser that brought in more than $250,000 for the Romney Victory committee, and on Friday Mr. Beck held a rally in Columbus, Ohio, intended to influence voters in that swing state. On Saturday, he attended Mr. Romney's rally in Dubuque, Iowa.
Though you may not have seen pictures of Romney and Beck literally embracing, let's not forget that Romney singled out Beck for praise in 2009, calling the bizarre media personality "my friend and a statesman in his own right."
So, let's be clear about the larger context. Fox News parted ways with Glenn Beck, in large part because the network saw him as a loon who undermined the Republican brand. But Mitt Romney, the candidate some in the media still consider a "moderate," sought out Beck to play a role in his campaign, and considers him a "statesman."
If voters judge a candidate by the company he keeps, Romney's friendship with Beck and Donald Trump raise some curious questions about the Republican's judgment.

...Romney's friendship with Beck and Donald Trump...
Let it be known that the GOP is indeed the party of the big (white) tent.
big (white) MALE tent, Schnozz.
Of course - Whaddaya think is holding the tent up? ;)
No it doesn't. It ANSWERS those questions.
#1.3 Exactly. What judgement? All Romney has displayed is terrible judgement. To hang out with these two lunatics is nothing but proof of that.
It also shows how shameless he is about taking money from anyone.
I am reminded of the expression, "He'd f*ck a snake, if someone would hold the head!"
Here's my question: Not only is Mitt a lying, tax evading, draft dodging war monger, his policies are those of the Bush era, only more so! Why is half the country in favour of those policies which nearly destroyed this country? Not only in favour of them, but know that Mitt will double down on them! Vouchers for Medicare, people thrown off Obamacare and left to buy expensive health insurance, preexisting conditions won't even get coverage! FEMA being cut by almost half, or privatized, public school's going to private vouchers, and college grants taken away; food stamp program ended and Medicaid ended. Then they'll give the defence budget billions they do not need. Their new tax break for the wealthy will raise the deficit.
Can anybody voting for Romney tell me why that appeals to them? I sure as hell don't get it. Sacrifice all needed programs in this country to bigger tax breaks for people like Romney! WHY? WHY? WHY?
I voted for Romney for the exact reason to get rid of many programs that are not required. Let's cut spending before we raise taxes.
Americans For Prosperity (Koch brothers) have just put up a frightening ad, in Chinese, with sub-titles. It is effective and says we are owned by China now. If you see this ad, know who did it: KOCH brothers! It is despicable.
The T-Party will not stop until these corrupt billionaires have taken over the country.
Car rep, That's a recipe for destruction of the economy. We NEED REVENUE from these wealthy people!!! You idiot. You people are out to ruin America.
You deserve the sob. The rest of the country will pay for your ignorance and stubborn refusal to see what is happening!
As "carrep" said, he doesn't give a damn about the poor, elderly or diabled. He just wants everything but congress and the military cut to the bone. He'sa so damn concerned about his few tax dollars, but sayd not one damn word about the 2 wars, the killed and injured. Just don't spend his tax $$$ on anything but him. Self-centered GREEDY OLD PARTY.
Larry, How true. Have you seen the horrible Chinese ad the Koch brothers have on now?
Here's an article about Glen Beck from the liberal Mormon magazine Sunstone
https://www.sunstonemagazine.com/glenn-beck-rough-stone-roaring-part-i/
The portrait of Beck is great. So true to life.
These conservatives are really a piece of work. About 25,000 veterans from Iraq and Afghanistan are seriously disabled out of the 50,000 wounded. We also have an unknown number of veterans suffering from traumatic brain injury and severe PTSD. Particularly hard hit were the veterans in truck convoys that were hit hardest by roadside bombs and ambushes with rocket propelled grenades. We may have as many as 100,000 or more veterans with serious TBI or PTSD. I wonder if the conservatives will give a damn about these veterans a few more years from now or will they only be concerned with cutting the budget.
A statesman in his own right, from the state of delirium!
Let's not forget Jerome Corsi! My mom, a lifelong GOP voter, told me yesterday that she's been seeing a lot of this Obama-Muslim-gay-married stuff from her friends on Facebook. I'm just happy she has the sense to be amazed at the stupidity of it.
What is it about having deviant sex that makes a group a minority?And did you miss in Hussein's own book on his father the statement in his bio...born in Kenya,raised in Hawaii?
http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/birthers/booklet.asp
The bio you refer to was a booklet published by the folks who were marketing his book. Even they say it was an error in fact checking. I don't understand the need for people to swallow whole any propaganda that satisfies their own need for validation!
What deviant sex? Homosexuality is common throughout the animal kingdom. It's been observed in dozens of species - but strangely, homo sapiens (and I'm not too sure about the sapiens part!) is the only species for which it's a big deal.
And yet.... you do not mention WHAT makes them a protected minority under law? And WHO was clamoring for gays in the Military? Or even gay marriage? These things are voted down on a regular basis yet Hussein shoves that load of crap down America's throats...not unlike Socialized Medicine agenda...And WHY does our brains separate us from the animals and the biological dead-end that Homosexuality represents?
That would be "Mr. President", or "Mr. Obama" to you. Presumably by using his middle name, you think you're being subtle about your beliefs concerning the President's religious heritage.
Why are gays and lesbians a "protected minority" under law? Have you ever come across the word discrimination? It's illegal.
Finally, patently, your brain doesn't separate you from as much as an amoeba.
#3.5
Idiots voting for idiots. It's a recipe for disaster. We'll pay for their ignorance in terrible ways if these corrupt Republicans win.
scott doesn't think. That's his biggest problem. He believes anything a rightie tells him. He's also shown himself to be very racist and hateful.
Hi Larry, Yeah, I have him on ignore so I can't see his comments. I've come to believe that Republicans are simply the party of lies, hate, and racism. They are willing to sacrifice their own futures to put a corrupt man in power who will ruin this country.
BTW, There is evidence that Romney paid no taxes from 1996 to 2009. He took advantage of a Mormon Church law which enabled him to do that.
Between voter's ignorance of the GOP plan and policy and what the GOP has done to thwart voters in Ohio and Florida, these T-Party people could win.
God forbid. This election is nothing more than a billionaire and millionaire's take over of our Republic. This is not Democracy anymore.
Larry, dispute the comments or do not....DNC talking points without the slightest trace of a point carries no weight. India...put your head back in the hole it came out of.
Scott, its amazing that you're using prejudice and homophobia as a defense for why you think that Romney is the guy for you. If you don't like the comments being made about you, think about the gays and lesbians that endure hatred every day. Deviance mean being different from something else, and I, sir, prefer to be different than you.
Kevin CR, #3.10
You are different. You can think. You aren't blinded by hatred and prejudice.
The sad thing about people like Scott is how badly they'll be hurt by a Romney/Ryan presidency. We all will, of course, but some more than others.
You just have to explain that if a person stops listening to Rush Drugbait and Faux Fake and BS Gnewz for just 24 hours, their IQ will go up by 10 points.
And here I always thought deviant sex involved whips and chains...
Boy the things I don't know could fill an encyclopedia
Me too, Cartoon. I wasn't even familiar with Bruce Springstein and have no clue who Joy Z is! I mostly love classical music as my mother was a violinist and I was raised on it.
My knowledge of popular music is on a par with Mitt's knowledge of the average American! My knowledge of deviant sex is limited to ...................um.......I don't know.......it is though, limited. That sort of thing never got my attention. I find it boring, actually.
Scotty boy is a typical right winger: blinded by hate, prejudice, and bigotry with zero empathy for anyone less fortunate than himself. The first prerequisite for being a conservative is to have ice in your veins for the needs of your fellow Americans, sort of like an embalmer at a funeral parlor.
I didn't know Bleck was a mormon (I did know the moron part,, maybe the author has read too many of the "misprints"). I guess for the evangelicals bigotry is outranks hypocracy.
Why then didn't twitt pick bleck for his running mate (just an expression,,please don't mate).
Who are the other "famous" mormons???
Is it wrong for the religion intollerant to make fun of the the religious intollerant?
Perhaps being intolerant of religions due to the morals they hold only shows the Socialist views of the Liberals.
scott..
be honest now - you were laughing when you wrote that, right?
You as a teapub really don't want to talk about "intolerance".....do you?
It's easier for you on the right to just narrow it down to 47% and by race....that way it is alot easier then sorting through complicated religious theology!
Sure...tell me about the Tea party and their supposed "intolerance"..and With Hussein deporting Illegals UNTIL he needed their votes...then offered a temporary amnesty...or let's talk Jeremiah Wright and REAL (not perceived) racism....Liberals so funny.....
oh Scott....how many tracks do you need to go down?
btw - deported illegals...they can't vote....illegals who have temorary amnesty...they can't vote.
educate yourself and you won't look so foolish all the time!
It's called P-A-N-D-E-R-I-N-G and more to the point, it breaks American immigration law. This guy goes class warfare and race baiting and even trying the "war on Women"..ANYTHING to try and hold on to a failed Presidency.
s-t-r-e-t-c-h-i-n-g quite a bit eh?
must be tough being you.... on the day before the election and this is all you got to work with?
Socialize higher education, health care, energy (can you say Enron?), small biz loans, add civil service to the army's mission with an open door policy for hiring.
scott says anything that doesn't agree with what he wants is "socialism". Doesn't know what it means, but he that's what the righties told him to say.
So says the Government dependent.
Obama stopped deporting undocumented aliens so he could gain their inability to vote
Seems legit
Cartoonthenews,
In his next term, I hear Obama is going to put two illegal aliens on the Supreme Court. He feels they need more Spanish speaking people there.
Sounds legit. LOL
lmao you're on a roll India!
I'm gonna keep on rollin, Cartoon. LOL
I just heard that the people of OHIO have decided to tell the president to go.... ....jump in the lake. It is now a tie in OHIO.
Well, if Mitt wins, I'll take my Manx cat home to the Isle of Man. I'll show them!
Oh, God, the lunatics have taken over the asylum, Cartoon! I am about to go tharn. Let's make more jokes!
Romney has been willing to grub endorsements (and money) from any source, be it Beck, Trump, Mourdock, or anyone whose first name is Billionaire.
The cryer and the liar...
Way to go, Dude. You're leading in my Post of the Week competition.
Sounds like he's talking about The Hussein and Joe tandem. When Hussein speaks of "a firewall" that is because he has burnt the countries economy down. The jobs Hussein has cost Ohio, West Virginia,Pennsylvania and Kentucky in the Coal industry is only one example.....but a local one.
Wow, the perfect nexus of bile, lies, and conspiracy craziness that can only come from 'talking points'. Kudos, Scott, I am impressed.
And if you think that's going to get a single new vote.. The kind who will buy what you said, they wouldn't vote for President Obama if he came gift wrapped with a winning lottery ticket. And that sort of thing drives the moderates and independent voters away. Thank you .
REALLY? Think much? West Virginia has been a SOLID Blue State for YEARS...Think they are going "D" this time? Meds time......
And Pennsylvania hasn't been won by republicans for years...guess what changed?
And as a Pennsylvanian, I can tell you it isn't going to be won by Republicans this year, either.
hahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahaha
Go ahead...add an INTELLIGENT comment....
Yeah, you gotta love all those liberal, progressive, West Virginia Democrats. LOL
Uh, did Romney embrace Beck before or after his latest tack to the center? Before or after his wave to bi-partisanship? John Kennedy's words in 1960 are even more appropriate for Romney:
“I feel very sorry for Nixon because he does not know who he is. At each stop, he has to decide which Nixon he's going to be at the moment which must be very exhausting.”
Daniel, Thanks for that quote - VERY appropriate for Pinocchio Romney. I've always found it not only ethical but far easier to tell the truth than to lie - for that very reason.
My pleasure, Sue. Another of my favorites from the same time with the same players: John Kennedy also said,“Do you realize the responsibility I carry? I'm the only person standing between Richard Nixon and the White House.” Also applicable to today!
And one from Kennedy when running against Romney, "I am pro choice, he is pro multiple choice".
"If voters judge a candidate by the company he keeps, Romney's friendship with Beck and Donald Trump..."
Face it, if the "voters judged any candidate" we might not have the looney tunes that we have in office right now! Akin, Bachmann, Gomert, et.al - these people should never be considered as thoughtful, forward thinking, or "leaders" in any way shape or form! And no it has nothing to do with them having an (R) behind their name; look I didn't always agree with Chuck Heigel but he at least some common sense and a functioning brain - these people have no functioning brain cells! It makes me seriously wonder if the people they represent have brain damage!
Beck, is another one of the crazies, and the fact that Mittens thinks that he's a "statesmen" for what dumbed down, mean spirited hate and ignorance?! Mittens is a joke, he doesn't really want to be President of US all, he wants to be President cause his daddy didn't make it; frankly haven't WE all had enough of white men with "daddy issues"?!
Zora,if Romney can succeed in getting his and his "five sons" taxes lowered in his first term,his mission will be accomplished. One term will be enough. And by the way I agree with you on Chuck Hagel and am glad he endorsed Bob Kerry.
Raising taxes during a semi-depression is SUCH a good idea....
The company President O blah blah keeps is the most concerning. You can see the republic being destroyed by the presidents friends.
Yeah scott just like cutting spending and eliminating jobs is SUCH a good idea.
Hussein and his rogue EPA has eliminated MANY,MANY UNION jobs.And if you do not want to leave YOUR debt for your childrens indentured servitude...and America being Greece..YES,cutting and relaxing these EPA restrictions in the name of American jobs seem to be a good idea.
As a rule I just block people who post insulting or angry, mean posts. It looks like about half of the posters are blocked today. There's an awful lot of disrespect and hate on this feed today.
Jane Shaner,
It's the last time these people think they can spew their hatred before voting. Of course they know they won't change the mind of anyone with their hatred, but it makes them feel good and grownup.
My answer to all that hate. Willard protested FOR the war in Viet Nam and went and hid in France for 30 months. He's hidden/destroyed his records from his time running the Olympics and being governor. He's hidden his records at Bain and his part in bankrupting and sending jobs to China. He refuses to tell people his policies until after he's elected. He's hidden his money offshore and most important, he's hidden and refused to release his taxes for the past ten years like other candidates have done. That tells me all I need to know about Willard. I don't need to listen to his flip flops or lies.
Hussein and the EPA eliminated jobs! Yes because regulations were invented by Obama! Before that they never existed! It's all his fault! Also he invented debt- that didn't exist before he came into office either!
Lest you think I'm being too hyperbolic in my sarcasm:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HaKs4vEToc0&feature=plcp
Maddow,
Such a waste of a viable mind,if you woduld read Beck maybe you could climb
out of your progressive prison.Rachel you are a prisioner of long held views.
Too bD.
cuckoo, cuckoo
Beck has all the earmarks of a psychotic, including his belief that he alone really knows the truth, and that he alone knows how to fix that last little flaw in the universe.
Which of course is this guy stating the clock has struck midnight for one Hussein Obama.
Biggest difference between Rachel Maddow and Glenn Beck. Maddow has a PhD and a BA.
Glenn Beck, college dropout.
I'll listen to the smart one.
Sure...after all....that whole "Green Energy" thing she advocates has been Soooooo successful. What a joke.
The funniest part of this article is the comment asking "Glenn Beck, is that guy still around". Why dont you ask TRMS to compare listeners and viewers between the two personalities and then see which person more people are really wondering if they are still around?
just saying...
.....Beck doesn't have a TV show genius
"If you read Beck maybe you could climb out of your progressive prison"
You really believe that don't you =0.
Politics makes people so *stupid*. It's because of something called the cognitive bubble. Ya know what that is??
I try not to take the advice of drug addicts unless of course I am seeking advice on drugs. Hence, Mr. Beck is off the radar for politics.
Glen Beck is insane. Any questions?
Cartoon...That shows how ill-informed you are...He started an online TV program that is now being picked up by DISH network. Between his radio program and his TV program, he mops the floor with TRMS. Between his radio and tv shows, he has more than twice the listeners and viewers that Rachel has. He is in the process of building his own network, instead of just being a puppet for a corporate master like MSNBC.
Tom - I guess that also eliminates President Obama from politics for you as well since he is an admitted cocaine and marijuana user. Glad to know that you will be voting for Romney since he has no history of illegal drug use.
just saying...
I'll tell you what, storm guy, even if what you said were true, that the president uses cocaine and pot and even if he uses it daily and even if he drinks a fifth of scotch a day with it, I'd still prefer him to be president.
As far as Beck goes, why am I not surprised that you know when and where he's on. I have never watched the witch hunt myself. I had an actual education. Cartoons do not interest me. Glen Beck is an unfunny cartoon character, a Nazi sympathizer and a total a#%hole. The fact that he is rich and successful tells me more than I wanted to know about this country's people; about people like YOU.
just sayin...
You mean Glenn 'I'm now selling God instead of gold because God spoke to me personally' Beck?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Yeah these words don't fit together in the same sentence that way....
So Beck continually gets more than 3 million views every night? Yeah I doubt that especially because he was kicked off Fox News for not being able to get enough views on a nightly basis.
Again adding the words "just saying" to your posts doesn't make them more honest or truthful
Jim, #9.2, The problem with that "last little flaw in the universe only Glen Beck thinks he can fix happened the second he was born.
Simple cause and effect.
For every action there is an opposite and equal reaction. Glen Beck born-Flaw in the universe.
Seems legit.
And let's not forget the flaw that appeared in the universe the day Rush Limbaugh was born! That was a shifting of the earth's AXIS!
Cartoon..I know that reading is difficult for you, but please try again. My comment was "between his radio and tv show"....additionally, I noted that his program started online, but has now been picked up by DISH TV.
India...there is no IF to my statement...it is true and Obama admitted it himself. Now, if you choose to not believe him from the words he wrote in his own book, then that means you think he is a liar. So...which is it? Is he a liar now or was he a drug user then? Your third grade education does not count for much...obviously since you have allowed yourself to be duped by the liberals. I realize that your jealousy of anyone that is "rich" is inspired by your liberal friends, but you really should try to start making your own decisions instead of allowing your beliefs to be so easily swayed. Maybe if you actually did some of your own research instead of being just another Democrat Lemming you could actually accomplish something.
Then again, the term Democrat Lemming is really an oxymoron anyway...
just saying..
An internet show is not a TV show Storm. It's an internet show. You made the statement internet TV show. Until the internet and TV are one this isn't a sensical statement.
His network TheBlaze will broadcast on Dish for select subscribers. His viewership is about 300,000 strong. That's roughly 1/3 of Maddow's audience.
Obama stated that he had at one point in time tried marijuana and cocaine. That's not the same as being a user of these drugs. User implies present tense or active tense. Try to keep up on that 3rd grade education.
Yes because anyone who disagrees with you must automatically be ignorant. It can't be that you're the one who is uniformed. This is the point I've been driving at: the right wing has an arrogance problem. You think your interpretation of the constitution is the correct one, your interpretation of the Bible is the correct one, your interpretation of history is the correct one, and your interpretation of law is the correct one. Anyone who disagrees is automatically labeled stupid, communist, a sheep, etc. And the irony, of course, is that you'll do this while simultaneously claiming that you are appalled by the divisiveness of our country and that you pity all those who are so angry.
Notice that storm didn't address any of the points made by anyone else either. Lol. But yes we're the lemmings.
The cognitive dissonance is strong in this one
Do your delusional rants come from years of drug abuse or simple ignorance?
Once again...go back and re-read the original post...RADIO AND TV...the last time I checked, if you broadcast on DISH TV, you have a TV show...maybe I am wrong, but I will defer to your superior intelligence <sarcasm>. You have yet to actually provide proof that my numbers are wrong, but why am I not surprised. a typical leftist tactic...when you can't disprove facts, attack the person that has just kicked your ass in the discussion.
Have you ever read a single post of mine that said anything about the interpretation of the Bible? or the Constitution? or history? I didnt think so..
What other points do you want addressed?
just saying...
You have yet to prove that your numbers are correct; it says that he has 300,000 people who subscribe to his podcast and internet show. That's it.
Irony alert
...yes, but that's besides the point. You was clearly in the context of conservatives. Read better, comprehend better.
Why do you continue to completely dismiss his RADIO program....go back and read the original comments when I said that the COMBINED (that means you add them together) number of viewers and listeners was greater than TRMS. Since you are just another lazy liberal let me help you out...
http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/glenn-beck-radio-deal-million-335650
IN case you have trouble reading the article, he has over 10,000,000 radio listeners per week, add another 1,500,000 from his TV show and the numbers far surpass TRMS.
Oh..you have read something from me about the interpretation of those documents? Prove it or shut up...you, like most of the other liberals on here, are a pathological liar who thinks that you can just put something out on a blog and not get challenged about it. However, since I know you can not back up your lies about me, one of two things will happen now...1) you will come back with a statement about how it is not your responsibility to prove me wrong, 2)you will slink away and not say anything.
Your grammar needs a lot of work..."you was clearly in the context of conservatives"? That puts you right up there with Whom regarding your writing skills.
The irony here is that the conversation on this topic was going cordially until you decided to come in with your smart ass comments.
just saying...
"...Romney's friendship with Beck and Donald Trump raise some curious questions about the Republican's judgment."
And Sanity
Yeah...those massively successful individuals judgement....*LOL*
Why am I suddenly thinking of Howard Hughes?
Maybe because he was successful as well?
and by the end of his life a raving paranoid lunatic
And being a recluse...you know that HOW?
#10 Dragoon,
What sanity and good judgement would that be? LOL
Raiseing $250,000 at a fund raiser sounds like a misprint or a bust,, considering $50,000 a plate norm in a $2 billion election cycle.
When is this guy going to lay down somewhere far away and leave us alone. I guess he and Romney are a match made in heaven. Ol "The Sky is falling, The Sky is falling" Glenn Beck and Mr. I-can-lie-better-than-you Willard Romney are a pair matched only in heaven...and/or hell. You can tell they lie, their lips move. Ugh.
For people to fully understand Romney's request and his relationship with Beck, one needs to research the Mormon "white horse prophecy". This mormon tenet should be enough to dissuade ANY self-respecting believer (Evangelical or Catholic) from voting for Romney!
Darn, I was thinking the Republicos had pushed him out onto an ice floe somewhere or something.
They're both Mormon's of course Beck would campaign for Romney.
Sure, Let's talk religion...anybody care to listen to a Jeremiah Wright sermon or two? A bigger anti-American, virulently racist "Pastor" does not exist. And hey...Let's not forget the support the Farrakahn faction that supports Hussein. That whole religion angle cuts both ways.
Scott, nobody has ever gotten any traction with smearing Reverend Jeremiah Wright, so I have to ask what you think you are accomplishing here. Have you ever listened to a Jeremiah Wright sermon? Or just the cherry-picked sound bytes?
Well...that whole G.D AMERICA..KIND OF...fell flat to me. and yes, go online and MANY of his "Sermons" are there IN their entirety.
In other words, you *haven't* heard any of Rev. Wright's sermons in their entirety, just the cherry-picked sound bytes. Wow, preachers who bad-mouth America really get your goat, I see...
What do you have to say about Fred Phelps?
Article unworthy of comment...
OH WHY THE HELL NOT?!? Beck fits right in with all the racists, misogynists, homophobes, birthers, and religious fanatics who make up Romney's base.
Romney is really, really scraping the bottom of the barrel. He's probably made contact with the Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan for the Get Out the Vote effort (or, more likely) the Prevent the Vote effort.
If you cannot get to vote in the allotted time,with a VALID identification.....you did not care or be allowed to vote to begin with.
"Allotted time," Scott? Five, six,seven hours. Some people have to work for a living. This IS America, not a third world and/or totalitarian state. (Although under Republican governors and Republican secretaries of state, it is the same as.)
Again...you make a little time for your country.
Perhaps if you'd been black in our country, his words might have resonated a bit.
Too bad you have no idea of how to put yourself in another's shoes; it's called empathy. Sadly lacking in the Republican party.
As to "valid identification", you haven't been paying attention, have you? Wherever these voter suppression attempts have reached the courts, the courts have consistently found for unimpeded voting. Rick Scott is despicable, and SOS Husted in Ohio should be charged with contempt of court, at the very least.
And Hussein trying to hide the voter rolls which the courts MADE the Administration turn over isn't contemptible? And 35 days of voting isn't enough in Ohio? You are utterly helpless if you cannot make it to the polls in that frame. And The Hussein Administration has 2500 Lawyers ready to sue whatever State he loses, Just as that Administration has sued more States than ANY Administration previously. This President is shameless and cannot get the gate quick enough. Chicago politics morality brought nationwide....Wonderful.
Ted Nugent, Glenn Beck, Donald Trump... a winning combination!
All pure scum. Pure. And that POS, Hank Williams, Jr.
But that Jeremiah Wright and Louis Farrakahn are "stand up guy's" to liberals though....*chuckle*
Gee, Scott, I missed the coverage of the Obama fundraisers with the president or v-president there embracing Farrakhan and/or Wright.
Those twenty years in his church are not indicative of his views then....
Based on your carrying on about Wright and Farrakahn, Scott, I'm assuming you're voting for McCain/Palin tomorrow.
Glenn is male, white, Mormon, rich and self-inflates. And Mitt gets a deal on those Beck jeans.
STATESMAN!
As an advocate for the humane treatment of straw men, I hate to see them beaten like this. I thought this was America, the land where you could shout whatever half baked notion popped into your fevered head and someone, somewhere would believe you. I guess I was wrong. Sorry, Mr. Beck, Mr. Trump, Mr. Wright, and Mr. Farrakhan. I only hope that you don't read these comments or, if you do, you're able to tuck in your straw and carry on.
Romney will court anyone if he thinks it will get him a vote!
http://whitenoiseinsanity.com/2012/10/28/mitt-romney-and-his-serial-rapist-friend-greg-peterson/
Looney Tunes meets Wile E. Coyote.
PERFECT, Tony. Thanks!
Why has Romney avoided talking about his Mormon faith?
Why is it called an occult to knowledgeable bible reading Christians?
If one studied the original founding of the Mormon religion one can see the obvious relationships to the Muslim religion.
Some Similar original teaching are:
Christianity teaches Jesus is 100% God and 100% man. In 1st John 2:22 states: Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. So anyone that does Not believe Jesus IS God, BORN OF A VIRGIN, BORN OF THE HOLY GHOST, is Antichrist and have nothing to do with him.
Now this may answer why Romney avoids discussing his Mormon faith. He knows how important the evangelical vote is for his election as President of the United States.
