very funny. stewart is at the top of his game.

OMG! You mean the right does have a sense of humor and that the Beckerman is pure comedy?

And klueless and chux and mrogi aka judas believe it?


Well, you know what they say about suckers?

Magnifique John Stewart!

chucks

My wife DVR'd that for me. Saw it this morning.Too funny. The man is a crack up. Too bad too many take Stewart as their primary source for news.

KDS

Funny, and so is this (in a sobering way). From biggovernment.com

The Age of Dependency (To the tune of that great song from the 5th Dimension)

When Rahm is in the Lincoln Bedroom
And Harry Reid aligns with Mars
Then Barak with guide the masses
And Dodd with steal the stars

This is the dawning of the age of dependency,
The age of dependency,
Dependency, dependency.

Taxation and confiscation
Stimulus and hope abounding
No more freedom and dissention
Golden free healthcare delusions
Mystic Nobel ordination
And your income redistribution
Dependency, dependency

When Rahm is in the Lincoln Bedroom,
And Pelosi aligns with Mars,
Then Barak will guide the masses
And Rangel will steal the stars.

This is the dawning of the age of dependency,
The age of dependency,
Dependency, dependency.

Pay more taxes….., pay more taxes now
More taxes….now
Give your savings…...give your savings now
Your savings…..now
They deserve it…….they deserve it more
Yes more…..than you
Repeat

"The man is a crack up. Too bad too many take Stewart as their primary source for news."

True, but I dispute this. If Ph(J)oanie wants to believe Beck is pure comedy - that just reinforces her ostrich-headed outlook at the world. Actually, I find Stewart is more informative than most of the corrupt lamestream media. I give him credit because he came down on ACORN when the lamestream media was silent and then later the NYT called them out for being too late with their discussion of the story. MSNBC, CNN could all stand to learn how to be effective and believable as a liberal voice. Will that happen ? Fu*k NO.

mrogi

The left wing media are so humorless they actually take Glenn Beck seriously. Liberals issue scathing denunciations of Beck as if he is a threat to anybody or anything. John Stewart gets it. John understands that Beck is a highly skilled rodeo clown.

I find Stewart is more informative.

You taking smart pills, KS? We agree twice.


Umm, judas aka mrogi: I think the problem as that YOU guys the Beckerman seriously. If you don't, then say so. Cuz I'd have way more respect for you.

Well, it seems from all indications that President Obama may be ready to commit yet another forty-thousand troops to the Afghanistan nation building effort.
If that is the case it will be a huge mistake. He apparently takes all this analytical time to come to his decision and then it's the same as the Bushwhackers. What a joke if it wasn't so serious and if so many human beings weren't going to lose their lives.

Joe Park

sounds famiyalr, u scare my wife, yew been here before under fawse names,go away fake poster

fRed

Nice try at skirting the issue, but it wont go away.

chucks

As much of a moron as ObaMao is, he has all of the same intel information that Bush had and is forced to make the same decisions that President Bush made..
He knows the risk those shit weasels in sandals present to this nation and he knows we must defeat this enemy. We must destroy that scum over there.
Doesn't it just chap your liberal hides to watch ObaMao validate President Bush and the actions that he had taken in the Middle-East.
Bush was right all along!!!!!

KS

The truth can sting. You have just shifted the debate from civility to insanity.

Youre so wise
Even in diguise

Bush was right!!!!!
The shit weasels were dumb enough to attack us. President Bush put the smack down on them. Unfortunately for our troops, we care about innocents. Otherwise this would have been over years ago.
Bush was right!!!!!! Obama now knows just how right he was. Thank you Obama for getting this one right.

chucks,

We will control the horizontal. We will control the vertical. We can change the focus to a soft blur or sharpen it to crystal clarity. For the next hour, sit quietly and we will control all that you see and hear. You are about to participate in a great adventure. You are about to experience the awe and mystery which reaches from the inner mind to the outer limits.

KS

A must read !! Saul Alinsky "Rules for Radicals" - the Progressive handbook so they can believe that the fix is in. From the mouths of half-witted radical liars...

"A tactic perceived is a tactic"

S.Alinsky

We will control the congress. We will control the military apparatus. We can change the focus to a soft blur or sharpen it to crystal clarity. For the next four years, sit quietly and we will control your life. You are about to participate in the great society. You are about to experience the awe and mystery which reaches from the inner mind to the outer limits. And if this doesn’t blow your mind chucky, we also control the CIA and…. Lieberman

WF Buckley's Ghost

Not if we steal your playbook, which has already been done - BTW. The comeback by those evil conservatives is in progress. Even Bill Clinton did not have the answer when the Democrats overreached and Obamao lost another czar - Anita Dunn today.

If Obamao does not transform back to Obama and tack toward the center - the House leadership will be transformed in the next election, not to mention other collateral damage that will be done to the liberty of the people who you douchebags are supposed to serve. Those dam teabaggers are out to make Mr. Alinsky spin in his grave.

Logic at work

You know it’s not us that send you cowering in the corner. It’s your ”evil conservatives” that win the credit.

That link is so true. They are there own enemy.

Rupert Murdoch backed up Beck on his comment about the Prez that caused so much stir, partly because it was taken out of context by the lamestream media;.

"In an interview with his own Sky News Australia, News Corp. chief Rupert Murdoch said he agreed with Glenn Beck's view that President Barack Obama's has made racist comments.

“He did make a very racist comment about blacks and whites, etc, which, he said in his campaign he’d be completely above,” Murdoch told the interviewer. “And, that was something which perhaps shouldn’t have been said about the president. If you actually assess what he (Beck) was talking about, he was right.”

Beck made the comments in July after the arrest of Obama’s close friend, the scholar Henry Louis Gates, by a white Cambridge police officer. Beck was making the larger point that instead of letting the facts speak for themselves, Obama immediately drew the most sinister interpretation of the police officer’s motives.

"This president, I think, has exposed himself as a guy, over and over and over again, who has a deep-seated hatred for white people or the white culture," Beck said. "I don't know what it is."

"I'm not saying he doesn't like white people," Beck said. "I'm saying he has a problem. He has a -- this guy is, I believe, a racist."

On Wednesday, a News Corp. spokesman stressed to Politico that Murdoch “does not at all, for a minute, think the president is a racist.”

For the video of the interview, see YouTube:

"Rupert Murdoch backed up Beck"...

Nothing more to see here.

joanie

Yes. I saw that on Ed's MSNBC website. He's got a pretty good site. Informative.

Puget Sound

Looks like Ben Campbell is declaring that he won't go along with the House Bill if a public option is included in the Senate Bill. So Lieberman and Campbell means for sure no 60 vote majority will be reached to shut off debate.

And lo and behold, Gallup is reporting that Repubs are now edging Dems among the Independent Vote Group.

And for those that 'know what they know' and don't need outside information -except for that shot of emotionalism from talk radio- it must be wonderful to have that much certitude about the issues of the day.

Thanks for the clip.

Anita Dunn was not a "czar"...her appointment was always only temporary. She is staying on as a consultant to the Administration. So much for her being "lost."
