Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    I was being sarcastic. I actually found what beck said very sobering, and agree with it.

    not a glenn beck fan, but props to him for talking about this.

    this is THE issue.. everything else, healthcare, war, immigration, etc, come back to this.

    let's keep this near the top
    i'm more a fan of popular bands.. like the bee-gees, pearl jam

    You guys are acting like this guy is the second coming... he's not telling anyone anything new. Glen Beck is a douche. Hope you all have been buying gold and silver the past two years.

    It's old news, and the only reason Beck is covering it is because it lends him an angle against liberals.

    I'm still trying to figure out what the term "touch the third rail" has to do with any of this. It makes me think of touching foil and doing rails.

    I have bought stock in companies that mine and process gold and i put aside a portion of my monthly income and purchase silver ounce pieces. I have been doing this for the past year. Do you have any idea how much gold is up in the past three years? I'm guessing no judging from your comment.

    As in the subway third (power) rail. The MSM has been sheltering the public about this information because learning about it is similar to getting shocked to shit (electrocuted).

    Slow down drama queen. Nobody said he's saying anything new. He's just a guy on CNN that is speaking the truth and always does.

    You work for a trading company? Sure you do. :rolleyes: see, i can do it do. I never said i was an expert but buying precious metals while our dollar is turning into toilet paper is not expert advice, its common sense.

    let me clarify. I work for a trading company but I'm not a trader. :) I'm not knocking your expert advice. I'm just wonderin if you put your money where your mouth is. hence the "which stocks did you buy" question.

    Beck is a c-grade Rush clone for the most part. sometimes he makes sense, but then again sometimes Rush and Michael Moore make sense too. doesnt make them great. I dont really see some hidden libertarianism under Beck, seems to me he's just another conservative.


    Asking that muslim senator to prove he wasnt a terrorist was pretty damn hilarious though. He said he was just saying what everyone else was thinking, but i dont think anyone ever thought that. what a loon.

    I only take what he says on the economy at face value, because it's true.

    I've also heard him put on some really cute wild west shoot em shaking the pom poms for war up rants as well which all appears (to me) like some tough guy shooting himself in both feet so everyone can oooh and ahh at his tough guy ego.
