Why? Beck is annoying when he starts bible-thumping. The rest of the time, he’s dead on target. I just wish he would shut up with the religion bullshit.
I don’t know if you’ve noticed this, Clothahump, but you are very highly unusual in America in combining paleoconservatism with atheism and anti-clericalism. Maybe you should ask yourself why that is. (There are plenty of Libertarian atheists, but, N.B., you are not a Libertarian though you might so self-identify; you are a paleoconservative.)
I often wonder if I’d be able to take a job like that at Fox when I didn’t believe any of their shit. On one hand, you’re propagating falsehoods and fearmongering, but on the other hand, the only people who’ll be swayed are the idiots who believe it in the first place. I think I’d be ok with selling poop to idiots for $25 mil or whatever a year.
Especially if I can quit the show down the road once I’m set for life and then write articles about how stupid all the people who believed in my fearmongering are.
