Posted By capj71 5 months, 1 week ago in Political News

On his radio show today, Glenn Beck argued that democracy does not work because voters have the ability to directly elect the president. Beck said, “This direct vote just put Barack Obama into office. Congratulations on that direct vote.” The problem is that the United States does not directly elect the president, and the system isn't a direct democracy.

    Putting Glenn Beck and Clueless in the same sentence always works with me!
    I cannot understand how any human capable of thought would listen to anything this empty-headed basket case has to say.

      Glen Beck is an idiot. He is more full of crap than a septic tank.

      How long are we going to allow hate speech, seditious talk, etc. to exist on our airwaves unchallenged! The uber wealthy have bought up the media and use it to spew hateful propaganda.

      There has already been one incident where a guy killed a cop and he admitted that he like to listen to Glen Beck. Someday soon, I predict, one of these nutbags is going to directly connect something Limbaugh, Hannity, Savage, Beck, etc. said to the crime he commits. Maybe then, we can discuss how to reign in the hatred spewed forth on these so-called networks. They are nothing but propaganda arms of the GOP.
