I agree with Fox News' politcs, but I absolutely despise the commentators like G.Beck

Camoor is spot on. Republicans don't do anything conservative. Unfortunately, they are always considered the same by the media.

It does seem to be the Republican tactic that as long as they can stay just to the right of Democrats they think they can call themselves Conservatives, and sell themselves as the only choice conservatives have.

Democrats, imo, are suffering from division that's becoming more and more glaring and obvious, it seems to me. There are true ultra-progressives in the Democratic party that are trying to rewrite the constitution and generally don't like the way the country was designed, and then there are old-fashioned Democrats that simply root most of their politics in helping out the little guy and the worker.


[quote name='IRHari']I don't know, Beck has said the Democrats have been 'co-opted' (his words) by maoist communist marxist revolutionaries.

BTW, nis new line of attacking Obama is this:
-obama's kenyan grandfather was tortured by british
-QED that explains why obama hates white people and took down that pic of churchill[/QUOTE]

I am not going to call you a liar, but on the way home yesterday I had Beck on and it was a caller that was telling him all of that. Beck's reaction was pretty tepid and he just kind of said he'd look into it. Maybe he talked about it more on the tv show later on?

Beck doesn't seem to really see any value in targeting Obama for the problems he outlines in his program. He views Obama as kind of a pitchman or face for certain agendas, but certainly not the architect or mastermind.

Could you please identify the former. With the exception of those opposed to gun rights, personally I can't think of any Democrats who want to "rewrite the constitution", literally or figuratively. Actually, there is one other exception - Obama and his executive branch power grab. Of course every president does this, and after Dubya even Julius Caesar would appear modest.
 
[quote name='camoor']I'd say that's far right-wing, but it's not conservative. At least not in an American sense. Those certainly weren't the values of our forefathers.[/QUOTE]

Our forefathers weren't conservative at all. At the time, they were as progressive as you can get. The took the French Revolution, English Parliament post Magna Carta, ancient Rome, and whipped into a new Republic.

The conservatives of the time were the Tories.
 
Did you listen after he said he'd look into it thrust? I'm not going to call you a liar but it was pretty evident that he had looked into it because he had talked about Obamas grandfather and how it may have affected Obama for the next 10 minutes. He did his research buddy.

And I turned on his show later that day, he jsut happened to be talking about it I don't know for how long or how in depth he went.
