It has everything to do with getting sponsors, which is what this topic is about.

He references the books where he gets his ideas from, they are his own. Maybe he was less conservative because he would've gotten fired from CNN for not being so leftist?

Still rall'in against the health care system, as is everybody else, Republican or Democrat.

Working out longer and slower is better.

Whereas if he was a leftist, he wouldn't get a word in on Fox News.

Combes has been called a DINO, and I've never heard of Lamonte.

If they are, then he needs to be in an insane asylum rather than a talk show, but I guess a little crazy is good television. Kind of makes me lose faith in humanity that people actually think he's logical, but oh well.

Not really, on the contrary--Republicans seem fine with the status quo. At the best, they are suggesting a few minor reforms, or reforms that make no sense( like allowing health insurance companies across state lines), probably just obstructing so they can get elected again, and at worst are whores for the insurance industry (same could be said with Democrats really, except slightly better but with no balls.)

My point was--Fox's non-logic makes me mad, and thus makes me run faster. It's a joke.

I hate Glenn Beck! I rather like John Stuart and Stephen Colbert. They deliver the truth, fitting commentary, and lulz. Glenn Beck makes me want to either laugh hysterically, or shoot my T.V.

You all basically just disagree with him, so you gather together with others who agree with you and talk about how much you hate him and what a racist he is. Talk about no life whatsoever.


Edit: no one is happy about the status quo on health care.
