I can't believe people are praising and happy about Beck's possible blindness. So if Obama goes blind should all conservatives rejoice and say he deserves it? I pray Beck has a swift recovery and doesn't go blind even though I disagree with him on many things.
I really would hesitate to mock someone's serious and debilitating illness like some are doing, even if it was someone I despised.
In forty-some years I've too often seen individual's mockery of someone's misfortune come back to bite them.
Whether you believe in God, Karma, the Threefold Rule or the Theory of the Ironic Universe, I'd really think twice about mocking a man for going blind, or or reveling in it.
Doesn't bother me in the slightest.
He was mocking you today on the radio, lib.
Beck's "illness" is obviously as phony as most of his program. He is already past the age at which macular distrophy becomes manifest. He is simply trying to gain sympathy from his viewers.
Yet, he continues to fool the gullible. Go figure.
nice......come on down, mellie.

Beck's history does not do him any favors. He doesnt have a great track record with honesty and his tear-jerk tactics are well known. This makes people, myself included, disinclined to take Beck seriously when he says stuff like this.So....both Ditto and liblady believe he does not have macular dystrophy. Based on....nothing. Gotcha.

Ahhh...add Hoplite to the group.

If it were to ever be found out that Beck is exaggerating or just straight making this up would you admit that he is a liar that should not be trusted?
Just curious.
don't put words in my mouth. ditto is right, macular dystrophy normally comes much earlier in life, and in any case can be treatable. the disease is rampant in my husbands family.
So you're saying he's lying.
Can you at least agree with the statement that Beck has a history of making emotionally charged statements and has, on occasion, embellished things for effect?Ahhh...add Hoplite to the group.
aren't you supposed to be a teacher? please learn to read before the summer is up.

No need for personal attacks.
I'll ask you straight up....do you think he's lying?
i have no idea, nor do i care.
I think the better question is "do you think there's a chance he's lying?"
And I'd reply yes, and the odds that he is ain't very bad in my opinion, but I don't claim to know that he certainly is.
