I have to wonder... if it's God's will when things like New Orleans happens or when people who are liberal, or black, or brown, or poor get sick or whatever, then isn't it also God's will when Beck does. Clearly, he has angered God and should pray till it goes away.

To be completely honest, I don't feel any empathy for a man who has made a career out of lying to people for money. He's a con artist. I don't consider this a punishment for his scams, but there are too many good people in the world worth my concern and, frankly, my ability to give a shit just doesn't extend to douchebags.

Your so brainwashed by the two party system, and our country is so fucking polarized, that you assume just because I don't want a man to go blind, that I somehow am a supporter of Rush Limbaugh. Really pathetic. Thats why this country is going to shit.

My point sailed right past you, didn't it? Rush disagreed with Michael J. Fox's position on stem-cell research, so he went after Fox personally, saying he was acting or had stopped his meds so he'd be more sympathetic. My point was, it's the same as making a joke about Beck.


Whats your point? Sounds to me like your point is exactly what I thought it was, which is that your assuming I am ok with Rush Limbaugh doing the same shit your doing.

Bendira, don't attack him. Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck are blatant abusers of American rights. They don't even WANT to disguise their droning with the guise of neutrality; they want people to RECOGNIZE they're creating Conservative propaganda. I have very little sympathy for Fox News, and that little bit was spent when Glenn Beck started to go blind.

People make jokes. All the time. About everything. When I was a kid we just to sing songs about Michael Jackson blowing up.

Pepsi cola blew him up
now he's drinking 7-up

It wasn't because we disagreed with him. It was because it happened and when you're a part of pop culture, you get what you get. Glenn Beck has NEVER done anything to garner sympathy. He's a horrible man who makes his living committing fraud on the American public. And it's the worst kind of fraud because it can actually affect the outcome of elections.

Being someone with that much power doesn't for a moment cause him to treat it with the level of responsibility such a position should garner. The man has the ability to change the outcome of elections and instead of doing the right thing, he does whatever makes him the most money. He's attack Christianity, civil rights and the very idea of caring for the downtrodden. At what point did he earn any sympathy whatsoever?

I'll admit, I also didn't feel any sympathy for Jeffrey Dahmer and his overall negative effect on America was much, much less.

So your saying since you disagree with his political position, you don't care hes going blind. Gotchya.

And yes, Jeffrey Dahmer is totally the same as Glenn Beck. After all, having a classically liberal political position is as bad as killing people.

In seriousness...if he goes blind, he will no longer be able to judge people by how they look.

I can see good things coming from that.

I doubt it, he'll probably pay someone to describe people to him so he can insult their appearance anyway.

Beck tearfully began talking about the things he looks at, like his wife and children, and that he loves to read...


I wonder if those were as fake as the tears he shows on television.

This is God's way of telling Beck to keep up his fight against Obamao's Socialist tyranny. Saint Glenn will, like every other Saint in history, fight against oppression with nothing but the spirit of the LORD on his side, and he will come out victorious.

It's not his opinions that are the problem. It's that he's a lying fraud who is willing to do bad things in order to make money. So, yes, that makes me less sympathetic. His actions are willfully destructive. He knows they're destructive. And he does them for money.

This isn't about whether or not he disagrees with us. Lots of genuine conservatives exist and deserve sympathy. He's a pretend conservative who was a pretend liberal when he was on a liberal station. He's a whore.
