It's wrong and you know it. It's even against Fox's policies for him to be doing this, but they are only politically motivated. You cons are too busy getting on senators nuts about calling flight attendants bitches, but you blatently disregard immoral and flat out wrong practices by King Con. You all are a joke, one big giant Grand Old Pity Party joke.

 

The President uses fear to sell Global Warming, and his secretary of state promises $100 billion/year wealth redistribution from us to developing countries.

The President uses fear to sell his $1.2 trillion health care plan.

The President uses fear to sell his $787 billion stimulus package.

Yet some people get their panties in a bunch because a talk show host uses fear to sell gold.

LMAO at people's priorities.

 

Really, what fear what that be?

That we will become the United States of Amerika?

That death panel will be setup?

That we will become a 3rd world country?

Sounds likes all the nonsense that your beloved Sarah Palin, Glenn Beck, and incompetant and contradicting cons keep indoctrinating you people with.

 

Just smoke another bowl and watch Comedy Central, Mr. Substistute Teacher.

We'll make sure to pay our taxes so that you get to keep your government job, indoctrinating someone's children.

You make me glad I'm making the sacrifice to send my children to private school.

 

Good points, all of them.

The Beck followers like to claim his facts check out (some do, some don't). But they are missing the point which is the way he uses a few "facts" (that are mostly true in and of themselves) to create a very distorted perception of what is really going on (at least as measured by any truely informed, rational person). But Beck has his followers believing THEY are the only truly informed people, everyone else is running around with blinders on.

It becomes hillarious only when you realize his rhetoric is only good enough to draw in the most ignorant 20% of the country.

I bought gold at $275 an ounce a few years ago but at current prices I'm a seller. Anyone advising people to buy at $1200/ounce (and based upon prayer!) is a greedy lunatic.

Gold is a commodity and, like any commodity, will fluctuate in price in the short-term. But it is not an investment. If you lived 2000 years ago and worked hard as a brickmason or other tradesman and put all your spare cash into gold and buried it, you may have been able to acquire 4 or 5 ounces over a period of 4 or 5 years of dilligent saving. If gold was a great investment, that gold (80 generations later) would be worth a huge fortune. But, no, it would be worth less than $6,000 today! Gold does not appreciate in value over the long-term. Gold was a great value at $300-$400/oz. but not at current prices. The old addage "buy low, sell high" is as true today as ever. But Beck did not jump on the gold bandwagon in a public way until it was already over-priced by historical norms so it's hard for me to take him seriously. I predict gold drops into the $600 range within two years. Yes, you can lose half your money with gold, happens all the time over the course of history.

As usual, with Glenn Beck, it's all about him and if he can make a buck off people he doesn't care about (which is most of the world), he will. I know, I went to High School with the guy.

And if you haven't seen the short video linked in the first post, it's worth a minute of your time:

So a guy owns gold and talks about gold prices soaring on his show and now he is a tyrant and a terrorist by your words. Many many people own gold in this world. So anyone that talks about how high gold has gone is a tyrant?

You are just attacking him with your feelings and calling others names so I will fight fire with fire for once...

 

This thread is funny.

BTW, that head in the sand comment.

I knew you had your head somewhere Punisher, I just didn't believe it was sand it was stuck in.

 

You've either missed the point entirely, or are too stupid to realise it, or are just in denial. He's not just talking about gold, he's using fear to sell it to people. He's saying this for his own personal benifit. In my book, that is fear profiteering and is unacceptable at any level, be it gold or global warming. I'm sure if some liberal douche talk show host was doing this, everyone of you would be on his nuts.

Looks like you've stooped down the liberals now. You don't have anything useful to say, soo you're just going to mosey on in here and insult someone. Don't come back in here with that weak sauce **** anymore kid.

 

You all have deteriorated far enough with this one, so I'm closing it.
