I know some posters on this forum do not like Beck but this week he has certainly asked questions that I would like to see answers to. I wonder how many people reading this agree with the character of the people he has appointed to advise him. If Beck is reporting the truth and it seems that he is backed up by others then a lot of them are extreme radicals and have expressed views in the pass that make me believe that they are for destroying the America I know and for what it stands for. That would be capitalism, freedom of speech and many other constitutional issues. Are others not afraid of these type people or are you endorsing them and supporting their views. If you believe like I do then what are your plans to voice your opposition to this hijacking of our values. Today, Beck asked about the civilian security force Obama spoke of during the election. I think his question is very timely. He primary question of what are they needed for. He stated that they should be a well trained and as strong as our military. Does that not bother some?

provides a very detailed, well researched analysis of the poor caliber of people that Obama has surrounded himself with. Its calle Culture of Corruption. Why the American people chose to send the crooked Chicago political machine to Washington will be one for the history books.....like the Bay of Pigs, Watergate, Neville Chamberlin, etc.

of promoting in his own image.

Hey, where is the kool-aid crowd. They've been real quiet. Maybe they're in O-BAMA's security force training.

-One of the things I don't understand are the czars!
-.. and the czar organization, ....and oh yeah, why isn't the press investigating and explaining this czar organization chart for us?
-Everyone should want to know what's going on here --the left, the right, the middle.
-Just what do these czaes control? --how do they control it? --and to what end do they exercise this control?
-AS far as I can determine the issues the czars are suppose to advise the present on are either: 1) issues that are alreaady the responsibility of his cabinet appointees and their organizations, or 2)issues that the executive branch does not have the responsibility for.
-In both these situations, whatever teh czars are doing is not under the congressional committee pervue or anyone else's. THis bothers me. I believe it should bother you. and I believe that we should all think that this should bother the press, which traditionally investigates all this kind of stuff and hangs it out there for all the world to see-----except now. Why?

it is something a dictator would put in place rather than a president of a democracy in a capitalist society. Oh wait, maybe i just explained it.

I think you may be right. It is extremely hard for me to understand how anyone that believes in America and proclaims to want the best for it cannot be upset over what is going on with this administration. History teaches us that in other countries where bad things have happened the citizens were led down the path like sheep and then it was too late to stop it. I don't know about the rest of you but I have never been politically active before but you can bet your bottom dollar I will be during the next election.

Yeah, this is one lady who we all know has no agenda and is without bias. Lordy, I hope some of you saw her on Meet The Press a few weeks ago. She was an embarassment to herself.

I understand that you don't like Malkin but how do you feel about the main topic? That is, are you happy with the people that are giving advice to the president? Do you feel that these people have an agenda that may do great damage to our country?

For the most part I think President Obama has good people around him. Of course they have an agenda but it is not to do great damage to this country but to repair at least some of the damage done by the man I voted for in '04 and by the people he had around him.

Depends on your definition of "good". They may be "good" people but their agendas are not good for the long term viability of the country, and they definitely advocate far too much government involvement in our daily lives. Plus, they expect to mandate those of us who are self sufficient to give up what we have worked for to support those who can't or more seriously, won't.

If you break the backs of the strong to support the weak, you end up with homogenized mediocrity, and as a whole we as a country suffer.

Me believes you look at the world through rose-colored glasses and can't see the wolves dressed in sheeps' clothing.

Finally, appointing a special prosecutor to go over what career prosecutors have already determined to not be criminal acts is nothing more than political retribution. Do you think Holder, with this action, is trying to heal and move forward, or settle old political debts?

PS: What is your opinion of the Democrats in Massachusetts wanting to change the law again on filling the dead Senators seat to their own political advantage. Do you consider that hypocritical?

Since I've called you on occasion someone who is reasonable, I hope the the complaint in your post was addressed at WW's question rather than to my answer.

No, I was referring to your post, which was about your perceptions on W-W, not the issues.

May make you feel better to post it, but it is a pointless post.

Lets see, a self proclaimed communist, founder of the weathermen underground, shutting down the airways based on diversity, and refusing to prosecute black panthers but will go after the CIA. If these are the people you think are good I certainly would hate to meet those that you think are bad. I can only respectfully disagree that they are rebuilding anything. In my opinion they are on a mission to totally change and tear down this country and remake it in their twisted view. In any case if you are right then I have a lot to fear but on the other hand if I am right you have nothing to fear. I find it hard to believe that anyone can be so hung up on the past that they completely ignore the present. I also believe Bush's economic policies was extremely damaging but that his defense of America was very good.

I consider the Mass. thing hypocritical. In fact, you could put this in the dictionary as an example next to the word "hypocritical".

Then plese help me understand what WW's post had to do with the issues? Please enlighten me in order for me not to withdraw my former statements concerning your "reasonable" side. (-:?:-)

You can withdraw anything you danm well please because it means nothing to me. Maybe my post should have been your post to WW.

Agreed, but unfortunately not unusual these days. Nobody even pretends to be fair and honest these days.

There was this "kook" who was married to a lady we used to go to church with. He was a bigwig in some movement to throw the entire bunch out of Washington and start all over. I am beginning to think there just might be some merit in that...

Archie is consistent. He makes personal attacks rather than responding to the substance of the book. It is well researched and so far I have not seen one factual rebuttal of the history and background on the people that surround Obama. Granted, some of the facts and statements made by those in his administration would be seen as positive by the far left but not by a majority of Americans.

Of course Archie likes many of the people that are part of this administration. That alone speaks volumes about their lack of character and integrity. And by the way Archie, stop saying you voted for Bush in '04. You could never make me believe you have ever voted for a Republican. Don't even bother trying.....
