Thanks for the post - I personally prefer that to a link, unless it takes up too much space. There's a lot thrown out there, and not sure I care to research much of it, but I'll look at it, Wilson. Of course I think much of it will be sensationalized, and many of these connecting dot themes usually prove to be trumped up (on both sides) but I'll try to give an opinion.

One thing that strikes me is I wonder if it bothered you when Cheney put together the secret task force of energy and oil leaders to help form our energy policy, and nobody from the left was allowed to be a part of it? Has nothing to do with this, just trying to get some perspective. Don't remember any conservatives showing much indignation when that was going on. Will try to address your point here, though, and not totally avoid the question with a different question, like some do here.

Yeah ! Like Chad said !

Also, how about all the troops that are being electrocuted the Haliburton JUNK Showers in the Green Zone? I don't recall Glenn Bob blowing a shit ring over that ?

For those of you old enough, Nixon set up a secret CIA operation to spy on Americans in America. It was uncovered in 1972, after Nixon had already been reelected.

As for Becky's Thursday show on a "secret civilian national security force" and how it compares to "Hitler's creation of the SS":

This false claim is a badly distorted version of Obama's call for doubling the Peace Corps, creating volunteer networks and increasing the size of the Foreign Service.

This question stems from an interview that Republican Rep. Broun of Georgia gave to The Associated Press Nov. 10.

Similar claims have been circulating in right-leaning blogs and conservative Web sites ever since July, when Obama made a single reference to a "civilian national security force" in a campaign speech in Colorado. Obama's detractors make much of his expansive (and exaggerated) description of such a force as being "just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded" as the U.S. military. They also ignore the context.

Obama was not talking about a "security force" with guns or police powers. He was talking specifically about expanding AmeriCorps and the Peace Corps and the USA Freedom Corps, which is the volunteer initiative launched by the Bush administration after the attacks of 9/11, and about increasing the number of trained Foreign Service officers who populate U.S. embassies overseas.

All this info can easily be found a factcheck. There are many more Beck "facts" that can be refuted from yesterday and this week as his lost advertisers now reach 40. I'll rest my case for now on the Glenn Beck Show.

Beck, Limbaugh, Obama and Free Speech

Beck, Limbaugh, Obama and Free Speech

Beck, Limbaugh, Obama and Free Speech

In less than two minutes, the conversation veers into predictable left versus right territory. Although Obama and crew are indeed going after talk radio, they are not Venezuelan revolutionary Marxists, as Beck and Limbaugh would have us believe ? true Marxists usually don?t work for the bankers. Beck and Limbaugh have nothing to worry about. They work for large corporations that will obligingly pay Obama?s ?diversity? and ?community? tax in order to stay on the air. It will be smaller patriot radio networks that take the hit.

I wonder if Beck knows how many birthers are at home masturbating to his show?
