yeah i watched the show today and i can see/feel the frustration in Glen Beck

we really need to do something...

the best part of today's show was that during the commercial break

the one after he mentioned then Senator Obama's name and his personal earmarks which are included in the new spending bill

news came across his desk that President Obama has "removed" his name from the spending bill not the earmark of course just his name...

This is just insane...

It's all going to fall sooner or later.

Like they have been saying, if you prop it back up it's

still a house of cards.

Besides, if it falls hard enough at once, maybe we can have our Govt. back.

I know just by gun numbers, we have more than they do. lots more.
Just sales for November were almost 1.6 million guns.

The millitary has less than 300k men to fight, and 120k are over in Iraq.

The FBI estimates that there are over 200 million privately-owned firearms in the US. this is from 10 years ago.
Most other lists put it at over 300 million. That would be a big pile to try to disarm. lol

I wonder if the housing market goes that low, depression low, where will all those guns be?
Pawn shops, etc. ?

I am a drywall contractor in Florida and theres one thing Glenn forgets to metion. The houses in quailty of products in them and the square footage of the homes changed for earlier years. Builders when they found out that anybody could get a $300,000 or $400,000 home quit making the houses that were worth $100,000. The builders decided building a house for 10 or 20 percent at $100,000 didn't make since when both houses had the same turn around time. There was the get as much as you can as quick as you can befor the boom is over. Plus the higher priced houses being built led to other preexisting homes doing upgrades in order to look better and compare to the new neighbors house. Property values in general went up. But the biggest thing that drove up property was builders trying to buy up there next vacant lot for there next house. Plus the property gave them calateral for more projects.

Sorry, I am still waiting for the shocking revelation. This thread appears to be another veiled guise to attack our President with all the usual suspects responding.

Glen Beck is no economist. He is a hate monger and racist. A poor man's Rush Limbaugh on FOX.

BTW, His chart contains a fatal flaw. The median home prices HAVE NOT been adjusted for inflation. It cannot be a constant flat line over time. Also, there was conveniently no source for his data. "Fuzzy Math" as you Pubs call it.

He's just spewing misinformation and riling up the minions.

Sorry to rain on your little circle jerk. "Just sayin'."

regards...KK
