I saw it coming about a mile away but it was still funny.

Re: Glenn Beck is an idiot

Friday's show was great!
Beck had African Americans who don't like Obam's policies.
That's the best way to fight from being called a bigot. Is show the person of the race you have a disagreement with that there are people of his race that agree with you. I've tried this at work over the years and always leaves the person upset with egg on their face.

No, that's not the best way. Those African-Americans will be labeled "Uncle Toms", "House Negroes", and other derogatory remarks.

When dealing with hate-mongers and race-baiters, you can't engage them in dialog. Using words with them is like trying to outspend a counterfeiter. Their words are as easy to come by and equally worthless as the fake money printed by the counterfeiter.

Re: Glenn Beck is an idiot

I don't like Glenn Beck but from that clip, it looks like that was a good show.

The dancing comment through me off until I remembered some rapper saying, "The only way out the ghetto for a black man/ is to either play a sport, know how to sing, rap or dance."

Re: Glenn Beck is an idiot

"It's baked into us over the years. I think education's probably the biggest piece that plays in it. We're trapped in our schools, trapped in these bad neighborhoods. Kids walking through metal detectors, learning about gun battles, and gangbanging, and sex, and dancing, and things like that, and not putting real the focus on education."

It sure sounds like he's putting dancing on par with gangbanging. Maybe he's a Southern Baptist?

They can do that in groups yes. Like they did on THE VIEW or on BILL MAHER'S show in the past. Where they have 3 liberals talking over one conservative. Maher doesn't do that anymore I might add.
But like I said I tried it and it worked. Also I've tried it when talking about the boarder with a Mexican. He can't call me racist like if he was having that conversation with a white person. Just like THE WHITE HOUSE doesn't talk about FOXNEWS anymore since Glenn Beck put that hotline phone to his show.
If the WHITE HOUSE finds something not true that Beck is saying just call and you'll be on the air and make Beck look like a fool for telling lies.
But the phone hasn't rung.

I saw that show rerun late last night, and he was so true on the comments, "We have group of people here the media doesn't want you to think exists conservative African Americans". Great show last night.

I must have missed this when it came out. Probably from Beck's radio show:

Maybe.

My nephew was in highschool and was starting to take an interest in dancing. Not like ballet or anything, but just to learn so he can get girls at the school dance. He wante to learn how to C-Walk.
Now, he was getting C's and D's, but instead of his mother paying for a tutor, she somehow managed to afford some kind of after school dance instruction.

Re: Glenn Beck is an idiot

This is all horseshit. After that woman called liberalism cruelty, I realized that she was out of her mind. What does it prove to fly in 50 black republicans and have them say that the President's policies are racist? It would be just as accurate as flying in 50 gay republicans and having them saying that conservatism is the only movement that really has their backs. It is a distortion of the overwhelming majority. Do they deserve a voice? Absolutely. However, to present them without mentioning that they are in a vast minority is something of a misrepresentation.

Well, obviously he couldn't have every black Republican there. He'd have to triple the size of his studio!

What a difference 45 or so years makes! And thinking about why is probably worth doing. (In a different thread)

Would it be as accurate as flying in doctors, dressing them, and claiming they believe in your healthcare scheme?

As though everyone doesn't know African American conservatives are in the minority. C'mon. Just as African Americans in favor of gay marriage are in the minority (though obviously not as big).

I thought what they said was excellent. I don't care about the supposed impression it gives nearly as much. But substance over symbolism is a key difference in conservativism over liberalism.
