military/police are choosing not to stop the protesters demanding "regime change" and warn that if "progressives" and Obama and his Marxist/Socialist/Communist "Czars" don't head the American "people" and respect the Constitution, the same could happen in the US?

A week? A day?

Beck, I recall, begged everyone in the military a while back to "get informed" (translation: listen/watch him lay out his paranoid conspiracy theories and hypnotize them into believing Obama is secretly trying to destroy America and all of it's capital institutions)

Beck et al are watching Egypt and licking their lips. Rising up to "take back their country" is probably the longed for endgame for the Tea Party.

5. What part of it don't you understand?
Maybe you haven't been paying attention to Beck's rhetoric for the last two years.

Did you not see his appeal to military personal?

Or his multiple veiled incitements to revolution?

His unveiled accusations against the current administration?

His insincere warnings about unnamed swaths of Americans being on the verge of rising up?

The only reason he MIGHT hold back is because of Tucson and the extra critical attention being paid to him. If that hadn't happened, he would be on tonight pointing out how Egyptians have decided their government was destroying their country and noting that the military/police were not standing in the way of the people.

As for the topic, I'm sure that talking point will be making the rightwing rounds shortly.

12. Ok, that's it
You, and a couple other ankle-biters on this thread, are obviously implying something you don't have the courage to come out and state openly.

Got something to say say it, but shove your passive-aggressive insincerity up your yah-hole

13. Tisk, tisk..
Sich languidge..

Do you kiss your momma with that mouth?

For your information I welcome all low count posters to DU, yes sometimes it's snarky but in your particular case it wasn't, I mostly agree with your OP..

15. "hope you enjoy your stay"
I've seen that type of welcome here before...the implication being they will soon be gone. If that's your stock welcome to low-count posters I suggest changing it, especially when welcoming a poster in a thread that's already seen a couple of hit-and-runners with obvious reading comprehension challenges.

16. I do hope you enjoy your stay here..
It's a great board to learn things on, I happen to be someone who enjoys learning.

Now if I had put it this way:

"Hope you enjoy your stay. :eyes: "

That would have been snarky.

You'll have a better time here if you ease up a bit on that itchy trigger finger.
