"I call" has it exactly right. Since your rant was directed at me though, I'll add just this: You seriously missed my point. We can debate about polls and how many Americans support this or support that. It's completely missing the point. Just as you seriously missed my point. Labeling people and calling them names because you disagree with them or don't like the questions they ask is an illegitimate tactic used by those who can't support their position any other way. Even if you INTERPRET what Beck is saying as racist (I'm still not buying that), it doesn't discredit the facts he presents and does not answer the questions he poses. I no longer believe any politician and look at what is actually happening, not at what I'm being told. The glaring example pulled out of several news reports: "The recession is over and Obama is touting the success of the stimulus" - while another 190,000 jobs are lost and unemployment rises to 10.2%. Seems to be a LOT of questions there about the veracity of the first two. That's what Beck has been doing the past month. Not telling you what to think, but asking questions - and you, and those like you, either don't know or want to know the answers. Trying to discredit that by attempting to label him as a racist, drunken pot smoking liar does not change the facts he presents or answer the questions he raises.
You can go back to pretending you are a libertarian and calling other people liars. I'm done.
