I already "believe what I will". It's still painfully obvious that there was nothing there. I guess if you really really wanted to see a wee little froggy getting boiled to death, then sure, believe what you will.

No, but I did see him boil a frog on his tv show today.

I didn't see the frog leave his hand. I think he palmed it or something trying to be funny. I have always suspected that theory about frogs in hot water to be bs though.

I don't think he ever actually pulled one out of the container. The camera makes a sudden cut at that point. And it's pretty obvious that nothing leaves his hand.

Alright homey, whatever floats your boat. The Nile's not just a river in Egypt though. Regardless of what you claim, there is a frog murderer on the loose and he's most likely going to strike again.

I find it funny that some of you attack Glenn Beck and Fox news just because they are conservative. Every other news station is liberal along with The Colbert Report and The Daily Show. You hear them bash Glenn and Fox as they take clips out of context and judge them based on a fake news program.

I went to the exact moment he threw it in and paused the video, and to my surprise there was air. Huh. Really makes you think.

I prefer Arguing With Idiot, a collection of essays written by people who have spoken to Glenn Beck before.

Not because he's a conservative, because he's a moron. Even other conservatives who are WAY farther right than the mainstream conservatives, who are pretty far right as it is, are coming out and saying Beck is crazy.

Anyways, I can't imagine I would even want to leaf through it. I'm sorry, but I don't get the appeal of train wreck humor. Oh look, this guy's being a complete idiot, that's funny I guess, let's all give him money. I also don't get the argument that people who don't like what he says still find him funny, enough so that they're willing to pay money for his book just so he can go on doing what he's doing and publish another one soon down the road. There's this thing called a library where you can borrow books for free, so why would you buy his book unless you were proud to have it adorn your shelf? That, plus I think labeling him as a comedian is pretty dangerous. He works at a TV station that claims to be a news station, he spends the majority of his time trying to get people to buy into his opinion, he certainly seems to take himself seriously and seems to want others to take him seriously, so why would anyone call him a comedian except to get people who would criticize him to hold their tougues?

I think actually the horrible coverage and contradictions are why people criticse Beck, not because he's a conservative.

So your logic is; bias is permissable as long as the other side is also spewing their own propaganda? Wow, it's no wonder American media is so polarised if this logic passes. I've seen the Daily Show legitimately critise Obama. Have you ever seen FOX praise Obama?

I dunno... I always thought he was an a**h**e. He made a joke about his coworkers wife's miscarriage over the radio.

I think Beck is a nut-job much as the next guy, but I have watched that video several times now, and each time, it appears as if nothing went into that pot.

Oh no, I know. Ha. But I was just saying that because it pertained to Beck... seriously. I don't hate him because he's a Republican. I think people like him give Republicans a bad name.

I'll have to check the book out, although I'm not much of a fan of Beck's. He tends to be overly annoying. About the only commentator I can stand to listen to is Mike McConnell on 700WLW. He doesn't view things based on Democrat or Republican. He falls back on common sense. Check him out.

Not Bill O'Reilly.

avatar_genius

Lmao, that's pretty funny. Yeah, Anne Coulter too.

No, Anne Coulter is definitely a nut case. Bill O'Reilly is not.

On the internet, Bill O'Reilly has this reputation as being a nut, but if you've watched his show from beginning to end, you'd realize he wasn't.

Ann Coulter is kind of a freak though, extremist and I hope she doesn't ascend the political ladder.

I don't judge what I know by the internet soley, or the tv soley. Bill O'Reilly is a nut case. He is corrupt, and biased just like most of the reporter's on television news networks, especially Fox.

Glenn Beck is an Ignoramus Extraordinaire. Anyone who finds him funny is even more mentally-lacking than he is. Try Real Time with Bill Maher on HBO if you have to be influenced by an enigmatic celebrity.

Look, some terroris-I mean frogs need to be boiled for the sake of our country. In fact, I believe it's patriotic to boil frogs. And what are you suggesting we do about frog murdering? Pass a law saying I can't boil frogs? You're going to infringe upon my right to boil frogs? That's socialism. And you know who else didn't enjoy boiling frogs? Hitler
