Unlimited "Glenn Beck is a nutter" thread

I expected them to join the Young Christian Athletes Society, among other things. Not debate and forensics, which is run by godless liberals.

you know your missing a great opportunity
who they would pick as a better president
bush or palin...

[Juana]

"Missing a great opportunity"? Not likely. Most of the boys have a hard on for Palin and would pick her over Bush any day, and the girls love her, too. I predict many PALIN 2012 stickers on back packs next year.

ask for a debate about really wacky right topics... ten commandments in the courtroom
even frame topics that the left answer is reasonable but the partyline or "common sense" says otherwise
object is to get a student to say something so far out there, secret service is called by the PTA

You have a frightening amount of faith in that kind of thing. Short of a bomb threat, nothing my kids say is going to raise an eyebrow, and I mean NOTHING.

[the last yatto]

well if nothing else trying to argue the other-side of an argument that conflicts with their BIP
might provoke them to think for themselfs


also ment to say who would be a better president palin or beck..
not sure how i confused that one 

[Juana]

I try, believe me, but it's a bit like trying to tear the blinkers off a blind horse. They have that smug right wing thing going on already--"if it's inconvenient, it ain't true."

Where the fuck do you live? Kids get expelled around here just for looking funny.

I saw the Daily Show parody yesterday. Have to say that, while it was certainly amusing in places, I wasn't laughing too much. It was getting into that territory that Bill Hicks was in towards the end of his life where you know what he's saying is funny yet, at the same time, you just feel weird when you realize how serious the problem is. In this case, it's the fact that someone, somewhere is taking Beck seriously even if he's (Beck) a troll.

There was a great clip of Beck, I think of Mar 10th where he said 'I am not a journalist'. And to me, that's a huge fucking problem - when you have a show on an <ahem, cough> NEWS CHANNEL, you'd think being a journalist would've been an entry requirement.

Beck used to be (and basically, still is) one of those wearisome radio DJs who want to convince you how freaking 'zany' they are. He's a Conservative Pinealist and if he was on this forum, there would be mammoth hate shitting threads extending over 50+ pages.

Incidentally, I donated $1 to the 'get Rush a ticket' website and suggested that if Rush won't go, then see if Glenn will move to Costa Rica instead.

They're actually giving the money to Planned Parenthood if he won't accpet it.

That's brilliant!

I live in a land of rolling suburbs, filled with SUVs, strip mall churches, soccer moms hopped on their kids' ritalin, and tea baggers. Everyone here seems to assume nothing bad will ever happen, until it does. It's a bit like being trapped in a slice of the 1950s.

I would say that I feel sorry for you but I live in Georgia. We're more paranoid but other than that, I see your strip mall churches and raise you an army of street preachers.

Got those, too.

But! We only have one mega-church, which most of us refer to as the Mother Ship for a variety of reasons.
