Just goes to show that people see and hear what they want to....

I have not watched Fox News because here you have to pay for it, but they got rid of the Fine Living channel, and since I already subscribed to Animal Planet, and the Health, Discovery, etc. and I sure did not want the Biography or sports channel, and also since i rather love Fox (Fringe and House fanatic, etc.) with its more balanced view, I subscribed to it. so I will be watching Glenn Beck more often and not just hear what the leftst press has to say about him.

Why did he feel it necessary to boil a fake frog? That sounds like when Ozzy Osbourne used to bite the heads off fake bats. But Ozzy was an entertainer, Beck is, at least allegedly, a journalist. What on earth was he trying to prove by such cheap theatrics? Can't he stick to dealing in reality? Pretty pathetic, if you ask me. I'd say I've lost respect for him...but I've never had respect for him to begin with.

I watched that show. I was a little surprised that he dropped a frog in the boiling water on tv. Then I thought holy crow PETA will have a ball with thet. Then.... I heard him say it was fake! I laughed so hard!!! I agree with you, if people would listen with their ears and not their mouths!

Ooh, that was clever of Glenn Beck. We get him a little late here, so maybe that episode will air this afternoon. He's growing on me. I used to think he was too dramatic and he'd lose me with all the kiddie games. He probably just needs some getting used to, lol.

I didn't see it, but from what I've read here in your discussion it seems he was trying to make a point...being that the take over of our country didn't just begin with Obama's election. As for people believing what they want to believe...that's how it has been accomplished. People DON'T think for themselves. They're like that frog who doesn't see the flames under the pot, or even the pot he's put in. He sees only that he's in some nice soothing water...frogs like water you know. And after all...it's JUST water.

Before I answerjust letting you know that I dont know who Glenn Beck is, and I didnt see the show either, but the discussion about if people see and hear what they want to, I have t agree that this is completely and absolutely TRUE!. As the fellow mylotter stated before, its not just in some situations but in most situations, and Im sorry to say, even in situations that are depended upon people needing to think for themselves and they dont. They just, follow or dont really LISTEN. Now that´s the key word. Now, thi doest apply to that show, Im basing what Im saying because of my line of work. I have worked with people all my life in customer service type of jobs, either over the phone or in person, and not one day goes by were I dont deal with someone or someones to put it in that matter that dont listen at all.

People are ignorant and stupid and just like jumping to conclusions without really even investigating something.

People believe what they want to believe. Even when they hear. I said to my daughter last night someone would say he really did boil a frog. You could tell it was fake the minute he dropped it into the cup after retrieving it. Anyone believing otherwise better never get caught eating lobster!

I missed that show. Guess i will try to find it on youtube. But to be honest a lot of times poeple see and hear what they want....not just in this situation but in most situations.
