I'm not a regular fan of Beck's but I must admit..he can be entertaining.I just think he went overboard on Brown's comments.I've heard people say in public and at parties that hey...my son or daughter is available. I don't think they mean for sexual favors...

In a Republic, elected officials should never be trusted any more than necessary. Also, top tier political heroes should be people who are safely dead, preferably for at least a generation.

By hero are you referring to Beck or Brown?

You kids are as bad as fourteen year old girls on the internet. I am surprised the story was not pulled from MM, Spence.

I don't find eveything Beck does funny and at times, on tv, he makes me uncomfortable. That being said, he is doing more to expose the threat the "progressive" ideas being pushed not only by this administration but also by prior action and prior presidents.

So get over it. Oh by the way did Politico report what a hack Madow and O'donnel are? I'm guessing not.

Peace! I didn't see the video, and as I said I assumed that if he'd said exactly what he was accused of, it would have been at worst a minor flub, without depth or substance. I admire Beck, but expect no one to be perfect all the time. It's hard enough for me to maintain that standard!

I was watching the tube live when he said this. I thought, how un-professional--politically un-savvy. It did make me less thrilled about the Dems getting kicked in the teeth. I tried to make it okay in my mind saying, "oh--maybe that's just the cutting loose that happens after such a campaign and you just don't normally see that on national TV." But even then...I'd never say into a microphone--and if I slipped, I'd correct it right away making sure it was known that I was just caught up in the excitement of the moment.

And if that had been my hub--WOW he would have gotten an earful after the "show."

I don't care when he says things I thought of in a positive or negative manner...I see no reason why I should in things I didn't think of either...
