Glenn Beck's "Arguing With Idiots  |
|
I've been reading Glenn Beck's book Arguing With Idiots" and am wondering how many others on myLot are or have already read his book. What do you think about it? It is a real eye opener about what is going on behind the scenes of our "great government"

2. thegreatdebater (1024) | 1 month ago | No offense but I would rather watch CSPAN thank read any book by Glenn Beck. I thought he said that he wouldn't write a book until he had something to write about. I guess the money got to big for him.

|
deebomb (8940) | 1 month ago | He did have something to write about. You should read it before you critique it. any thing he wrote about in it can be checked out.
| |
|
|
thegreatdebater (1024) | 1 month ago | I don't think so. I have a brain and know how to use it. I don't need anyone telling me how I should think.

dragon54u (9397) | 1 month ago | Debater, I have a brain, too. I listen to both sides, liberal and conservative radio. I read columns and news reports by both side. The more information you have the better decisions you can make. Listening to both sides is the only way to stand up for yourself--know your enemy, whoever it is, and it's always changing! Knowledge is protection.
If you don't like Mr. Beck that's fine and well. But listen to all points of view and get all the facts before voting or making any decisions that affect our way of government. If everyone did that, we would have much better leadership. I wish I'd learned that earlier--I wouldn't have voted for that damned idiot Bush in 2004!

3. hornswaggled (1912) | 1 month ago | Isn't that funny.....the only two people that responded except for me probably have never actually watched Glen Beck or read the book either! I haven't read it yet but am going to get it for my husband for Christmas....along with "Bold Fresh Piece of Humanity" by Bill O'Reilly.....so now watch the comments come in......here goes.....

deebomb (8940) | 1 month ago | Oh well that's ok. They probably like Nancy Peluse too. It's a real eye opener. I know that the government was wasteful just didn't know how bad. it's full of humor too.

|
thegreatdebater (1024) | 1 month ago | LMAO, so I am wrong for expressing my views on Beck, and said I didn't read the book. But, you haven't read the book either. So what does that make you?
BTW, I use to listen to Beck back when he first came on the air. He was funny, and didn't talk about politics all of the time. Ever since he went off the deep end, I stopped.

|
|
hornswaggled (1912) | 1 month ago | Why because he speaks the truth? Or are you a fan of ACORN? And Obama? And Pelosi? Because if you are then you are the one that's gone bonkers...not us.

4. JoyfulOne (4227) | 1 month ago | While I haven't read that one yet, I did read Glenn Beck's "Common Sense". (Bought it at Walmart) Common sense deals with government issues too, and I found it also to be an eye opener. I found the book to be fascinating, it's obvious that this man has done a lot of research and thinking on the way our government works, and how that power is abused. I like the fact that his writing is not just speculation, it's proveable facts. I would reccomend to anybody who is concerned about America to read his books, it will really make you think. Personally, I hate politics, and after reading that book it actually made me more interested in it. Thanks for bringing this up, I will now have to read this other book of his too.
You know, it's really shocking what those politicians are allowed to legally get away with! And: I will never understand how those congressmen, senators, etc, can ok their own raises in pay, and get cost of living on top. Wouldn't it be cool if we ALL could do that?! (lol, talk about 'working the system'...) I think the public should vote whether they get a raise or not, after all, they are supposed to be working for us, right?

deebomb (8940) | 1 month ago | I have his book "Common Sense" too but got so caught up with the one Arguing With Idiots that I haven't had a chance to read it. We have been asleep for far too long. I too was never very interested in politics until my grandkids got old enough to vote. Now all that has changed and I just keep getting mad. I agree that we should be allowed to vote on their raises and a lot more that affects us. You should see their health care plan. http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=5382782n&tag=related;photovideo

5. dragon54u (9397) | 1 month ago | I'll read it when it comes to the library, I can't afford to buy books. But I really enjoy Mr. Beck. He makes me think and has opened my eyes to the corruption in our government, which I never knew was so widespread. I also like the fact that he doesn't care about parties, just the truth.
| |
| |
|
|
deebomb (8940) | 1 month ago | Well it is well worth the money. but get your name on the list at the library as soon as possible. A friend of mine is on the library list for "Common Sense" and is in position 30 but she was number 60 some time ago. So people are really reading his books.
| |
|
|
dragon54u (9397) | 1 month ago | I'm glad to hear of the long wait, that means that people are waking up and educating themselves. Maybe we can get some governmental reforms soon.

deebomb (8940) | 1 month ago | I just read that you can get Glenn's book at Wal-mart for $14.50 now. I gave 20 for it a couple of weeks ago.

hornswaggled (1912) | 1 month ago | I know how you feel....did you see Beck, lets see....was it yesterday? He installed a phone that only the White House can call....he wants to prove to the public that he is telling the truth. He asked them to call with any discrepancies that they (fox) has made on the president and their policies. He said that they got the certified letter with the number and he actually called to make sure they got that letter so so far ....no calls from the white house! Isn't that hilarious? I love Glen Beck.....he makes my day.....and speaking of which....he'll be on soon so I'd better wind up this lot thing.....

|
hornswaggled (1912) | 1 month ago | Shoot....I missed it....had a small emergency that needed to be taken care of....oh well. I think he redoes it on the evening thing and on the weekends too....I'll catch it later.
