    "common theme of all -ups (Katrina, BP Oil, Economic Crisis, Housing debacle, racism whatever) is government"

    So you've been suckered by St Ronnie's conservative propaganda "government is the problem". The only defense against corporate and capitalist predations is the government, as imperfect as it is.

    "process of compromise and country first"

    Magic Negro has been stupid and naive thinking he could find some compromise with the obstructionist, bad-faith, -all-y'all Repugnants. And the Repugs have done everything they can to deepen and worsen and prolong the economic pain for political gain in November, putting the country "last".

    The Dems' fault is repugnant weakness in pursuing something good and humanitarian for the country like health care reform, financial reform, while the Repugs consistently insist on letting the corps over citizens, patients, employees, consumers, the environment through compromising the regulatory function of govt through willful negligence and incompetence, by deregulation (the freer the markets become, the more ed we are).
    The republicans haven't stopped much of anything anything.

    Democrats can ram through whatever they want. They have the votes.

    public opinion is the only thing slowing Obama....and not very well.

    As always, Sperminator has missed the point of this whole thread...this isn't just another rag on Beckkk thread...I mean, it would be hard to top the 'Glen Beck raped and murdered a girl in 1990' thread ....but Beckkk, Rush and Hannity run the GOP now...ask Michael Steele..,,these people have never been vetted...

    I betcha most people didn't know Beckkk is Mormon, so when he says things like Native Americans were once Jews.....well...makes more sense...
    The people who listen to Glenn Beck aren't going to suddenly start distrusting him if they find out he's Mormon. He tells them what they want to hear. If some haughty Liberal comes around telling them Beck is a Mormon, they're more likely to just use that as a badge of tolerance... "See, I don't judge people on their religion. I listen to Glenn Beck!"

    You're reaching and whiffing.

    "republicans haven't stopped much of anything anything"

    they gutted health care, they gutted CFPA, they gutted financial reform, killed climate bill, they killed a stimulus appropriately sized to the crisis, and their lobbyists will certainly screw the rule making of any weak legislation passed.

    Dems don't have 60 votes in Senate, so they're dead there.

    Magic Negro is playing compromise softball, while the Repugs play obstructionist hardball.

    I'm sure MN will be impeached if the Repugs win both chambers, and there will be a storm of witch-hunting, grid-locking Repug subpoenas.

    Well, 3 of those were okay... Given how ripe this rally was for satire I hope there were funnier signs than most of those.

    Beck Blasts Obama’s ‘Perversion Of The Gospel,’ While Evangelicals Blast Beck’s ‘False Gospel’


    At his “Restoring Honor” rally, rodeo clown-turned-televangelist Glenn Beck told his flock, “America today begins to turn back to God. For too long, this country has wandered in darkness.” Beck “sounded like Billy Graham,” according to Rev. Richard Land, a prominent Southern Baptist leader.

    The next day, on Fox News, Beck morphed his purportedly “non-political” message into a stinging political missive against Obama, claiming the President’s worldview was shaped by “Marxism disguised as religion.” Beck attacked Obama as “a guy who understands the world through liberation theology, which is oppressor-and-victim.” “People aren’t recognizing his version of Christianity,” Beck added:

    “You see, it’s all about victims and victimhood; oppressors and the oppressed; reparations, not repentance; collectivism, not individual salvation. I don’t know what that is, other than it’s not Muslim, it’s not Christian. It’s a perversion of the gospel of Jesus Christ as most Christians know it,” Beck said.


    Ironically, while Beck is casting stones to undermine Obama’s faith, his own faith is one that many Christians view as a “perversion of the gospel of Jesus Christ.” Beck, a converted Mormon who had been raised in a Catholic home, has been attacked by many evangelicals who say he is not a Christian “because of his Mormon beliefs.” In fact, via Christian Newswire, here’s a press release that one evangelical group sent out during Saturday’s Beck rally:

    Glenn Beck promotes a false gospel. However, many of his political ideas can help America. … Mormonism is not a Christian denomination but a cult of Christianity. … Many endorse false gospels including Mormonism.

    Brannon Howse, a conservative writer and founder of Worldview Weekend, said, “While I applaud and agree with many of Glenn Beck’s conservative and cons utional views, that does not give me or any other Bible-believing Christian justification to compromise Biblical truth by spiritually joining Beck.

    “Jesus Christ’s Church has universally rejected Mormonism’s Anti-Trinitarian theology and its claim that mortals may become God,” David Shedlock, an evangelical blogger, wrote on a FreedomWorks forum earlier this month. “Beck asks Christian leaders to ‘put differences aside,’ but Beck himself daily peppers his broadcasts with Mormon distinctives because he cannot keep his beliefs to himself.”

    As ThinkProgress previously noted, “Glenn Beck often speaks about faith on his radio show and Fox News program, but he almost never mentions his own faith — Mormonism.” Bill Keller, the leader of the world’s largest interactive Christian website, said earlier this year, Beck “lies to people” by trying to portray himself as a Christian. “The fact is, the beliefs of the satanic Mormon cult are totally inconsistent with Biblical Christianity,” Keller said. It’s politically convenient for Beck to be attacking Obama’s religion, while rarely ever mentioning his own.

    It's hilarious watching the left obsess over Beck and Palin.

    I'm conservative and don't really care for either of them.

    Why so obsessed?

    If there was a God, he'd take Glenn Beck right now. I might become Christian again if he took this blowhard today.

    I just want him to go away. There's no redeeming value from this dialogue and it will cause hurt if people take up after him. It will hurt America. So in the way that you blink your eyes and pretend you've solved world peace, that's how I dreamed of a Glenn Beck that wasn't relevant beginning tomorrow.

    You still to seem think that we live in a world were relatively matters in wing-nut world...it doesn't...that's why Mitt Romney, a Mormon, will never be President even though he is the best GOP candidate available.....anything other than Jewish or Christian matters, maybe not to you...but it matters...

    ...it especially matters when Glenn Beckkk is using his show to unwhittingly preach Mormon theology

    I never said Glenn Beck could be President.

    Unless Beck starts using his show to talk about Joseph Smith and tablets and Christ in South America or whatever, his listeners don't care. And if he does, and he loses listeners, they'll move on to another scare-monger who tells them what they want to hear and plays off their prejudices and fears.

    Meanwhile you're playing the same kind of prejudicial religion card that's driving the "wing nuts" to get lathered up about mosques. You're no different or better. And with a target like Beck it doesn't require that kind of bull . Wise up. Grow up. Evolve. Be better.

    Same ole small-minded Sperminator....unlike the 'wing-nuts lathered up about the mosques' I have posted that this is not a reflection of many modern-day Mormons... but.....fundamentalism is fundamentalism...and Glenn Beckkk has shown that his beliefs reflect many of the beliefs of the Mormon church that once believed there is a race that is destined to be Gods over every one else...

    ....your a fool if you believe that people like Glenn Beckkk are not a threat to all our safety and our country's future...the signs are there...the hate-mongering is there...the anger is there...same as the Nazi used..

    No doubt....people have already been killed and many more people will be killed....guys like Beckkk should be held liable when one of his wing-nuts finally does strike and it can't just be brushed aside anymore by the M$M as another one of those 'isolated incidents'....

    You wonder why Beck is relentlessly promoted as a spokesman on Christian values even though he is Mormon? Maybe because he is pushing a vision of Christianity that turns its back on social justice and the poor. Still, no one really mentioned this fact during the recent coverage of the Beck at Lincoln Memorial:

    Glenn Beck has stirred the pot again, but President Obama can rest easy for a few days because he was not the central target this time.

    Backers of the concept of Christian "social justice," however, were not so lucky. Beck compared it to communism and Nazism -- and at least one religious leader is calling for Christians to stop watching the conservative broadcaster, radio host and best-selling author.

    On his radio and television shows, Beck suggested any church promoting "social justice" or "economic justice" merely was using code words for Nazism and communism.

    "I beg you look for the words social justice or economic justice on your church Web site," he said. "If you find it, run as fast as you can. Social justice and economic justice, they are code words. ... Am I advising people to leave their church? Yes!
