looks, did you catch his flub on how "even a Wrangler can't get over the obstacles we face" in regard to the economic recovery? Don't think the workers liked that implication as the Jeep enjoys a reputation of being pretty damn tough in the off road world.

We are buying a new car this weekend, as much as I like the Jeep Grand Cherokee, Denali Yukon, and CTS-V, it looks like it's going to be another Land Cruiser.

I found it interesting when he remarked about all of the high tech gear utilized in the plants these days and then started speaking of education. Perhaps if we stopped focusing on "Social Justice" indoctrination in our schools and spent more time on math and sciences...

Don't forget to include a tax increase on us "wealthy business owners".

Not an assumption, Kit. It is a fact. Study the link between FM and the Purple Heart. Are your really that committed to Glenn that you don't feel it is just a bit to close to the act of pinning yourself with a Purple Heart?
I like Beck, but he has gone the way of Hannity and his own self-sense of importance is no different than the loons on the far left. So while I may still like Beck and Hannity, I am not going to be shocked when they huddle inside their private jets and head for Switzerland if the time comes to defend this country within our own borders.
Call me old school, I just listen to Rush. He never commandeered any military insignia, but I loved his ties!

No, I support my fellow vets and their families. I will break my own rule of dignifying idiotic remarks. You obviously have never had the courage to volunteer and be accepted into any of the programs I mentioned, much less survive the attrition and be AWARDED insignia to identify those who embody the words bravery, courage, commitment, dedication, sacrifice and are giants among men. I am the same age as Beck and while he was busy getting hammered, we were busy serving our country. His fifteen minutes is almost up and he will not ever be mentioned in the same sentence as veterans.
None of the operators I know wear their pins to garner attention. Two of the three are retired and they don't even wear insignia, hats, shirts or anything that would identify them as having been operators. All three are Purple Heart recipients, and two have Bronze Stars, and one Silver Star. None of them advertise or brag about their service and sacrifice. They all feel that it was an honor to serve, protect and defend this country.
You have your institution(Beck) which you blindly follow and defend courtesy of me and my friends. Your Welcome.

Serious question. What was Stewarts stance on Chawlie Rangel? Dude is still roaming the halls of Congress. I doubt that anything will happen to this other NY rep.

Meanwhile, in San Diego. One individual brings a halt to fireworks display for the Fourth of July(this will be the second year) by filing a lawsuit citing environmental impact...AND
In Texas, an individual is able to block all prayer and religious references at a HS graduation ceremony.

You served up one of those that I don't think everybody will get.

I agree with many of you who have stated that both B & B have bigger fish to fry and both have contributed to exposing facts we may have not been privy to otherwise.

I do have an issue with Beck's integration of the "purple heart" into his wardrobe. I understand his intention, but as a veteran, that is sacred ground. He needs to cease wearing military pins on his suit. It really, really makes me cringe to see him wearing a Navy SEAL (Ranger, Recon, SOG etc.) miniature lapel pin.

Your recognition of service members and families is appreciated, but please respect our insignia.
