2. No way. That would be like not slowing down to look at a train wreck.

3. Yep!
I don't need to watch the TeeVee at all tomorrow... I'll wait and get the pics outta the InterTubes. I don't want to count toward some imaginary number of people watching that train wreck. I'll keep my eye on the headlines, without clicking links even, just to be sure I don't miss him completely slipping off his cracker. That's the only thing worth seeing.

14. Yep, need a far extream, to make the extream look acceptable.
Same thing with the far right being so extream, to try and make Republican policies done by Democrats look center.

It is really transparent.

15. Yeah, but......

I will most likely watch the clips on Youtube or somewhere else. How else will I know that the rapture happened, because surely since I am a liberal, I won't be going.

And I need to see what he, Palin, and the rest of the good old gang says....must rage about it on my blog afterwards. I should be in a good, firey mood after hearing their drivel.

5. See, that's the thing, CP...
I really think that a lot of the credit Beck gets for ratings come from people like us out for a train wreck and a good laugh!

8. He is going to rant and rave about some imaginary wrong or right....
And he will perform for his audience and he is sure to say something that will tweek liberal commentators so that Beck dominates the blogs and the airwaves and he was smart enough to do it on a Saturday when there is no live news on MSNBC so all that pent up energy will spill over into Monday...

7. Nope
We can ignore him, but the media won't. Best thing to do is to laugh ourselves silly at the spectacle and point out one and all how funny it is.

13. Since I have my mind meld thingy at the shop for an over haul,,,
I couldn't urge others to do what I am going to do by the Spock method so I had to resort to sharing my opinion on this opinion board...

If I convinced one person not to watch that drivel then I feel it would have been worth appearing as a hypocrite in your eyes...

17. I really think he is the reason Limbaugh has gotten so weird.
Limbaugh has to out-crazy Beck to keep his listeners.

18. Tune him out
We all know how this goes - hate, fear, God & country. Then he makes a big old boo-boo face and starts to cry like a little girl. So boring...

19. Ignoring bullies doesn't work. We've got to call him out.
Edited on Fri Aug-27-10 05:52 PM by backscatter712
He's gonna make the news and end up all over the M$M no matter how hard we put our hands over our ears, and how loud we go "LALALALALALALA!!!"

Ignoring bullies doesn't work.

Better to call him out as loudly as possible. Call him a racist because he is one. Call him a demagogue because he is one. Call him a fraud and a charlatan because he is one.

If we're lucky, either Beck or one of the other speakers at his little Klan rally will have a Macaca moment we can broadcast across the nation...

I highly recommend heavy ridicule.
