... and Glenn Beck is not a right wing... he is pushing against republicans quite hard.
The only people who never watched him - can call him "right wing".

OK, when this group started to finally look like the place where people of different persuasions can have a normal discussion, the fight is brewing again. Julia, I don't think Maria was wrong to observe that some people might not get an article she liked. Gera, please, when using words like "stupid" & "idiot", please clarify the addressee.

why do we need to discuss persona's of those who discuss at all?
we need to discuss the issue, that''s it.
But Glen Beck we can call whatever we want.
And "the other side" can call Keith Olbermann names, too.
:-) :-) :-)

I don't like labels, I just think he's off his rocker

Julia, please..I know you are a dem, but enough with the double standardс! ... weren't you the one who told me to stop criticizing Obama Fox News style in the good ol' group?? (ch) I was not discussing participants, but a politician..
давайте, как взрослые люди, смотреть за собой, а не за другими..будут лучше результаты..

Sveta, just for your information, I never belonged to any party.
And frequently voted Republican on the local level. Those are the facts.... feel free to interpret as you wish. As far as Fox news, I am afraid history might show how damaging this style of journalism is to this nation. Really wish I am wrong on this.(S)

btw. Julia! if you want to discuss the issue, why don't you read the article (that has a lot of historical information and facts) and we'll discuss it..because your discussing the issue with statements like - "delusional sense of superiority" - not very productive..

Illusory superiority, not delusional sense of superiority...
"Illusory superiority (also known as Superiority bias) is a cognitive bias in which people overestimate the degree to which they possess desirable qualities, relative to others, or underestimate their negative qualities relative to others. Whereas in optimism bias people overestimate the likelihood of favourable events happening "to" them, in illusory superiority people have inflated views of their own characteristics."
I would say there isn't a country in the world that doesn't consider itself exceptional... I'm certain that none see themselves as justaverage or mediocre...just like every mother considers their child to be the most beautiful, talented, intelligent... we all like to deem ourselves special and unique... if anything, this makes us more like everyone else rather than less.

"But not all of them can get it"
- it would be at least polite not to consider people who differ in opinions and platforms as total idiots.
Julia, you are the last person I had in mind when I was typing this(ch) . But there are a lot of very narrow minded people who refuse to get it. They would rather go to hateful radical leftist blogs, where idiot-bloggers argue like "Why don't f*cking republican just shut the f*ck up?" Come on, you can't consider these sort of trash as a worthy political opponent to intelligent and highly educated conservatives like Ramesh' Ponnuru, Richard Lowry, Jonah Gold, Mark Stein, Mark Levin ect.
And Keith Olberman is not a journalist'. He is so full of paritsan hate that he is going to eat himself one day.
