--The Republican Party is starting to crumble before our very eyes, including Rush Limbaugh saying that they "are outnumbered and are losing ground," Herman Cain calling for a third party, and Glenn Beck totally losing it, suggesting people buy farmland and guns and move away from people they disagree with politically.

So Glenn Beck has seemed to gone of his rocker again when talking about Obama. Complains that Obama is "dividing America" while at the same time telling people from the East Coast to "get out of there.. and surround yourself with like minded individuals". Also everyone needs to buy guns and farmland. Why? Who knows? Supposedly because "Obama will regulate everything".

What a nut case.
 
It's not a bad idea to buy lots of guns and farmland to prepare for..................a zombie apocolypse :mrgreen:

Hey, I detest Beck as much as his equivilents on the left, but that a good prescription for virtually any of the foreseeable futures.
 
Beck is the new chief spokesman for conservatism. His ruddy tear-stained face is the future of this doomed ideology.l
 
Beck is an idiot, only slightly more than Limbaugh, tho......

Yeah, like the chubby millionaire Glen Beck knows how to farm.

To suggest that he went off his rocker again would suggest he was on his rocker at some point. I submit to you that Glen Beck is not, was not, and will never be on his rocker.

No, he's not, any more than say, Chomsky, is the chief spokesman of the left. You love to gild those lilies. Sad, and more than a little lame.

What future are you looking at? :shock:

Comparing Beck to Chomsky is like comparing apples to Einstein.
 
Maybe Beck was planning to use the guns to force illegal immigrants to work his farm, because a tea partier like Beck wouldn't know a spade from a shovel.

The funny thing is, short of gathering enough in an area with some kind of strange hope to secede, this does nothing but actually SPEED UP the Republican fall (in terms of moving to areas away from those unlike you politically).

If you're advocating people move for political reasons, the more intelligent thing would be urging them to move TO states with people who don't think like they do politically...specifically swing type states. At least then you'd have the small chance of swinging the electoral population and gaining some additional electoral votes.

Having everyone run away from Virginia or Ohio or Iowa or such into deep red states doesn't do anything but actually speed up the Republican problems.

See that makes sense, but in Beckland thats just idiotic...

Come on now.... I betcha Beck can tell you exactly what he knows a spade to be. ;):roll:

Posted a working link for you.

However, I recommend against watching it. It mostly is not Glen Beck. It is some punk trying to act like he's a media commentatory. I stopped watching it because of that.

Beck: "I don't know how we will survive, because I refuse to back down and Obama remembers his enemies":

Paranoid schizophrenic anybody?

This, my friends, IS the face of conservatism.
 
Well, I know the wealthiest people in poor countries (besides, of course the government and it's buddies) are the farmland owners. I guess you could say that's the point. Don't really get it though. If you think there's a communist conspiracy to conquer the country, any farmland you own will be confiscated anyways.

Actually, on second thought, I don't have any idea what he's talking about.
 
What future do you see where it wouldn't be good to have farmland and guns?

The future. Why in gods name would we need to leave our homes go buy farmland and buy a lot of guns? Zombie Apocalypse about to happen?

One where you aren't a paranoid agronomist and you want to be an educated, productive citizen.

But honestly I'm OK with Beck and the rest of conservatives living in compounds somewhere off in the country. Best to keep them far away from civilized people.

Investments in guns and farmland is not an investment in education or a business or productivity, especially for a lame-arse millionaire like Beck.
 
Let me remind you where your food comes from, hint: it's not the grocery store. And those who have the place to grow their own will weather any future much better than your typical lockstep city dweller.

I kinda expect that his next week’s sponsorship space has been picked up by a real estate developer selling vacation cottages in Tennessee. :D

Not unlike Beck’s past shilling for shady online gold coin retailers.

Ridiculous!

True. However, I wouldn't just go off and buy farmland. It's a life commitment.
