Wow Rainy? Why would you feel like spreading those types of personal attacks on the Beck family like that? I guess there is no right or wrong, only attack the people you dont like and maybe, just maybe, they will stick around to torture and smear and attack until your little Liberal heart is all a twitter?
Another nice to know.

Speaking of Fox, GOPer who organized the tea party protests, Glenn Beck, cries again on air longing for the good old days which in his mind were akin to retro Coke and Kodak commercials.
But the reality of Beck's life story wasn't anything like sappy marketing campaigns by Fortune 500 companies. According to Wiki:
"Beck's parents were divorced in 1977 and the 13 year-old Beck moved with his mother to Sumner, Washington, attending school in Puyallup. In 1979, his mother died in a boating accident in Puget Sound waters, just west of Tacoma. The man who had taken her fishing also drowned in the boating incident. A Tacoma police report filed after the drowning stated that Mary Beck "appeared to be a classic drowning victim".[7] A Coast Guard investigator, referencing Mary's heart and psychiatric conditions, speculated she could have either fallen or jumped overboard.[7]
After his mother's death, Beck and his older sister moved to their father?s home in Bellingham,[6] where Beck graduated from Sehome High School in 1982.[8] In the aftermath of his mother's death and subsequent suicide of his stepbrother, Beck has said he used "Dr. Jack Daniel's" to cope. At 18, following high-school graduation, Beck relocated to Provo, Utah and worked at radio station KAYK, but stayed in Utah for only six months. Feeling he "didn't fit in", Beck left Utah,[9] taking a job at Washington D.C.'s WPGC in February, 1983.[10]
It was while working at WPGC that Beck met his first wife, Claire.[11] The couple married and subsequently had two daughters, Mary and Hannah; daughter Mary was born in 1988 with cerebral palsy, the result of a series of strokes at birth.[11] The couple divorced in 1994 amid Beck's struggles with substance abuse. Along with being a recovering alcoholic and drug addict[12], Beck has been diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.[13] He cites the help of Alcoholics Anonymous in his sobriety and attended his first AA meeting in November 1994, the month he states he stopped drinking alcohol and smoking marijuana.[14]
In 1996, while working for a New Haven-area radio station, Beck was admitted to Yale University through a special program for non-traditional students. One of his recommendations for admittance came from Senator Joe Lieberman. Beck took one theology class, "Early Christology," and then dropped out."
Reality Check for Beck.

So defending yourself is considered whiny victim. Good to know, that means I should stop playing defense and start playing nothing but Offense. I dont mind that one little bit.
Oh, and just for the record, defending your opinion or actions is not whining. But you just go ahead and play the "card game." It will cause those of you "slower" ones to catch up once and a while. I dont mind waiting.

Candice4053,
I feel the WSJ is already compromised but when the Prez calls out Fox Views more people will question all of Murdock's motives now that they're getting more press about their methods. I know Thom Hatrmann recommends the UK's "Financial Times".
Yeah, and so is starkravingreal. I guess you noticed YB posts the exact same whiny victim paranoid bullshit as freestinker. SSDD.

Of course it appears the defense of Fox as a real news org is now high on the Reich-wingers agenda because of the Obama admin "calling them out". Because Murdock now owns the "Wall Street Journal" they want to appear as legit news because if enough people question Fox Views they'll begin to question the WSJ as legit & once the WSJ loses legitimacy it's dead.
S2 - Rupert Murdock is a head case, to be sure. But hasn't the WSJ already lost credibility since RM took it over??
(and everyone knows this yellow fellow is freethinker, right??)

The only "rule" I stated was no death threats. Then I said I wouldn't go crying to daddy (report you) otherwise.

Interesting, since I disagree with much of his policy yet have noticed no open season. Nor do I consider myself a liberal. On another thread I have an open challenge to that effect.

You aren't there yet. Although you might want to try stating a position and using supporting evidence if you want a discussion.

That is the basis of current republican politics. Hence "socialism" and "death panels."

Turning the word "welcome" into a death threat is an impressive stretch of the imagination.

So, since this site is called Resident Barack Obama, do we ever talk about him or is this just a place to fight each other and talk trash toward the other members?
Or is this another rule changing things and I was left out once again?

JaredP,
You caught this one pretty quickly. If he hadn't been here before how would he know to call prettywitty "the leader of the litter". prettywitty responded to freestinker a lot, similarly to you, & of course got nowhere but got a lot of practice typing & cutting & pasting.
Of course it appears the defense of Fox as a real news org is now high on the Reich-wingers agenda because of the Obama admin "calling them out". Because Murdock now owns the "Wall Street Journal" they want to appear as legit news because if enough people question Fox Views they'll begin to question the WSJ as legit & once the WSJ loses legitimacy it's dead.

Well. Thats a fine howdy kick in the nuts now isnt it?
I am sorry but I was not aware that the goal was to be friends with everyone else on here or you are not allowed to speak your mind rule. I was aware of the rules of the site but I see that you guys just make the rules up as you go along. Okay, I can deal with that.
I have looked back for the past few days on here when I joined and saw that anyone who doesnt cheer for Obama, is not a Liberal, or does not tote that party line is pretty much an open season target on here. Noticing that, I figured there was no reason to even attempt to become or attempt to have friends on here, and put my target emblem wearing hat and dive into the deep end.
Then again, as it often happens with Liberals you have to repeat yourself a lot before things sink in. I am not here to be anyones friend of buddy, and could really care less if you find that I am deserving of taking the number one member to upset the mob and rock the boat a little bit. Of course death threats, childish and as obviously ignorant as that is to normal people, is over the line. Funny. Cute even. But still over the line. Lets try letting that happen. Mmmm-kay??

Wow. Now that doesnt sound like someone inviting the "virgin" in to join an innocent party that will end in a big trick that everyone else knows about AT ALL. I feel all warm and safe now. Thank you for "welcoming" me. Hey? Is that a white dress and a butcher knife in the corner over there?

Death threats? Okay, I really need to know. Is it safe to be in here? I mean I enjoy talking politics but death threats is a bit much. Okay, a LOT too much. So honestly, is that something that happens on here?
The writing of each person has a distinctive "flavor." Your writing tastes like that of a recently banned member. I have reported 3 postings in my time here. Two of them I believe could be reasonably described as death threats.
You started off by slamming the members in general, insulting one of the smarter and nicer people here specifically, and generally reminding everyone of one of the most unstable and bigoted personalities to grace these boards.
Welcome.
