As most of the East Coast hunkers down to wait for Hurricane Irene, radio host Glenn Beck wants them to see the storm as a blessing.
“Warning! Warning! We are headed for global disruption in food,” Beck proclaimed on Friday. “I asked you two weeks ago, how many warnings do you think you’re going to get, and how many warnings do you deserve? … This hurricane’s that is coming through [is a warning] … for anyone who’s in the East Coast and has been listening to me say, ‘Food storage! Be prepared!’”
As Mediaite explains, “Beck has been talking up the need to stockpile supplies due to what he sees as a coming ‘global disruption in food.’”
Last October, however, Business Insider commented on the commercial relationship which appears to be behind Beck’s crusade for food preparedness. “You may have heard about Beck’s relationship with Goldline International, which urges people to buy gold and stay safe from the supposed inevitable devaluing of the dollar,” the website noted. “Now meet Food Insurance, which sells survival kits of freeze-dried food and other items to help people live from two weeks to 12 months, depending on the plan purchased (and post-apocalyptic conditions). Beck has promoted the company’s products, is featured prominently on the company’s website, and a banner ad for the company, bearing Beck’s image, was spotted on his website Monday.”
Beck is no longer with Fox News, but his passion for food preparedness appears to be as strong as ever. “You’ve heard me say this for years. People have made fun of me,” he concluded on Friday. “If you’ve waited, this hurricane is a blessing. It is God reminding you — as was the earthquake last week — it’s God reminding you, you’re not in control. Things can happen. Be prepared!”

Beck is a fool. So are the tards that parrot him.

once again you attribute something to me that I've never said
why don't you spend your 23 hours of daily posting speaking only for yourself and the various voices in your head

Most of the times he does. When he speaks to anyone else he usually get pwned mercilessly.

Romney was polling at what, 3% at this point in 2007?
he let the bigger name repub lose, and now he's the frontrunner.
Huntsman isn't attached to romneycare and would be the perfect alternative to the tea party once its fervor dies down - and it appears that it is already.
he may be running for 2016.
-
Yeah dying down. Keep telling yourself that.

There are a lot of polls showing the Tea Party negatives rising, and their support down by 50% since the 2010 elections.

You can bury your head in the sand, or accept it's just part of the political process. Parties, candidates and movements get wildly popular, and then they lose popularity.

Lmao. How is crist and carolyn kennedy doing these days?

stop living in 2010, champ.
I just listed quite a few links to polls showing tea party support dropping in the last year.
so your events from 2010 are irrelevant here.
-
Yeah - and bama has even worse ratings than he did last year. He going to be like an anchor aronyd the ankle of every dem.

I usually give him the benefit of the doubt at the beginning of a thread until he starts veering off into crazy town (which usually doesn't take too long)
-

but ii'm not sure obama lost 50% of his base in the last year. Dropping from 50% to 38% isn't as big a fall as the Tea party made.
So yes, we're comparing flavors of dogshite now, but at least ya aren't denying the tea party is losing some supports. good on ya mate.

You are really messed up in the head. Seriously you live in an alternate universe.

this is hilarious coming from you
btw - Rob is correct and there has been plenty of data provide on this board which you've, as always, simply chosen to ignore
-
Good. Keep buying into the msnbc 24 7 lie machine. Should make for great laughter next year when the dems lose the senate and bama is sent packing.
Remember you two had no clue how bad the midterms were going to be.

keep ignoring reality
ignore all the damage that teabaggers (governors and congress people) have done to this country since getting elected and ignore the fact that their own party hates them (yes teabaggers are mostly former Republicans)
the midterms don't draw out the same numbers as a Presidential election and, in case you haven't noticed or choose to ignore it, the Republican party hates the teabag element as much as the majority of americans hate them
I think it would be awesome if the Repubs ran a Perry/Bachman ticket but I doubt theyh will let that happen
btw - Perry is a fake tea bagger
Bachman is the real deal

What percentage of people wanted the debt ceiling raised again?

What percentage of people wanted the debt ceiling raised again?
don't know and don't care
only an idiot would think that it shouldn't have been raised or that not raising it would not have been bad for the country
I don't expect you to understand that

Actually he's at 44 percent, the 38% showed up for one day on the Gallup Poll only. However, the Congressional Approval rate is 12.3%..... :P
Obama's ratings have only dropped but so has everyone else.
-
What a nut job Beck is turning out to be. No surprise. I loved Cartman's impression of him.
-
It's also untrue that teabaggers are made up of independent, dems and repubs.
So what do Tea Partiers have in common? They are overwhelmingly white, but even compared to other white Republicans, they had a low regard for immigrants and blacks long before Barack Obama was president, and they still do.
More important, they were disproportionately social conservatives in 2006 — opposing abortion, for example — and still are today. Next to being a Republican, the strongest predictor of being a Tea Party supporter today was a desire, back in 2006, to see religion play a prominent role in politics. And Tea Partiers continue to hold these views: they seek “deeply religious” elected officials, approve of religious leaders’ engaging in politics and want religion brought into political debates. The Tea Party’s generals may say their overriding concern is a smaller government, but not their rank and file, who are more concerned about putting God in government.

there are polls done by lots of different firms. The tea party is less popular than it was a year ago. This isn't a liberal lie. it's a FACT, plain and simple.
maybe obama sucks more, sure. But you cannot claim it's a lie that the TP has lost some traction. Hell, the rallies alone.. .they would get 300k to an event last year... this year they have 200 ppl showing up...

Yep. They have peaked and that's pretty much it. Unless of course you live in a delusional little world that reality never penetrates.

Yeah - Bama is at 38% on Gallup and sinking, GOP is going to win back the senate next year, and the majority of people did not want the debt ceiling raised, obamacare still about 55% in favor of full repeal, etc.
Yeah, Tea Party is really sinking.
-
I take this with as much grain of salt as your saying Obama isn't running.
::)

Sociopaths actually believe their own lies. Proven fact.

Youre defense for what is FACTUALLY a decline in Tea Party popularity is... "Obama is declining too!"
And I can accept that. Maybe the nation is as sick of the batshit tea partiers (think Christine ODonnell and Sarah Palin screaming at the camera about the economy) as they are of Obama looking into the camera lying about the economy. I can dig that, hombre.

I don't know if 333 is a full blown sociapath but he does "find" proof for his preconceived beliefs where none exists and "remembers" things that never happened.
not sure if he's intentionally lying or if it's just part of his particular form of mental illness

Yeah - its all in my head that:
1. Bama has attacked businesses from Day 1.
2. ObamaCare is as unpopular as ever.
3. Almost every single economic indicator is worse than the day Bama entered office.
4. GOP won the biggest election in 60 years in 2010 as a direct result of bamas policies
5. Stim Bill failed miserably
Yeah, thats' all in my head Straw. I really hope you fools are tone deaf next year as to keep buying in to your stupidity.
Your boy messiah is going to either not run or face losing like mondale the way he is going.

Take another look.
Here is a list of ways to identify a sociopath. This list is from "Profile of a Sociopath." Is is a pretty good list of sociopathic indicators.

Grandiose sense of self
Pathological lying
Lack of remorse, shame or guilt
Shallow emotions, impulsive outbursts
Inability to converse directly and rationally.
Need for stimulation
Callousness/lack of empathy
Poor behavioral controls/impulsive nature
Early behavior problems/juvenile delinquency
Irresponsibility/unreliability
Lack of realistic life plan/parasitic lifestyle
Inability to accept reality
Contemptuous of those who seek to understand them
Does not perceive that anything is wrong with them
Paranoid
Seeks out situations where their tyrannical behavior will be tolerated, condoned, or admired but free from direct conflict or challenges of others
Has an emotional need to justify their crimes and frustrations
Ultimate goal is the creation of a willing victim
Incapable of real human attachment to another
Lack of real friends
Unable to feel remorse or guilt
Narcissism, grandiosity (self-importance not based on achievements)

I like how someone brings up your behavior and crybaby nature and the first thing you do is talk about Obama.
You are obsessed with Obama. We get it. You are jealous of Obama. We get it. You need professional help.

1 thru 5 are all false, in part or in whole, but we've been over that ground many times before
It is my belief, from reading your posts the past 2 years that you have legitimate mental and emotional issues

38% for one day? Gallup uses 3 day averages and he had an average last week of 39%.
Now, he is again at 38%.
