Um.. It's fox news. What do you expect?

Pretty much everything that comes from that channel is insulting. Rush Limbaugh is even worse.

I guess it's all fun and games when they're making fun of somebody other than yourself. Now that they're targeting the "conspiracy nuts" instead of the "liberal nuts," you get to feel the sweet sting of prejudice like half the country has since that god awful network was first launched.

Enjoy.

uhhh, dang. I dun got so upset over that Glen Beck that I dropped my PBR and fergot to finish skin'in mah possum fer supper.

I ain't been so upset since they took off profeshunel bowlin' frum the teevee box.

To me, It seems like you're acting as if Beck is out to insult you. I think you're getting too offended by Beck's "Stereotype" and not really paying attention to what they're actually talking about. They're discussing scenarios that could be very probable if Violent Revolution indeed occurs in this country. Especially when talk of it is showing up more and more (along with the government enslaving and oppressing us more and more). Another note, what the heck do you have against "hillbillies" and "Pick-up drivin'-Tobacco Chewin folk"? I find that pretty derogatory and stereotypical in itself.

I think they chose a bad word to describe Constitutionalists who are traditionally, men who are armed, hold to the law, hold to self-reliance, and hold to God, guns, and guts.

We all know things can't continue to deteriorate. There is in fact a tipping point.

The question is, when will it be reached, and what will be the extent of the short-term aftermath, and the long-term aftermath.

The Bubba Effect will determine how long it will take to restore order and Constitutional Principles. Who else is going to do it?

Of course Beck and the idiot squad over at the propaganda pushing dumpster known as Fox news will do anything to paint dissenters and constitutionalists as uneducated and back woods by calling us all "Bubbas".

Nothing more than a predictible move by the PTB to goad people who are on the fence into ignoring what is really going on. I mean, who would want to be associated with or labeled as a "Bubba"?

This way the average American know nothing will want to distance himself from any message that comes from any militia movement or Bubba because they wont want to side with those that have been portrayed as ignorant or fringe. This will help them swallow whatever lie the government is feeding them that much easier.

It takes away credibility from those who are trying to warn their fellow Americans and makes it easier for Joe Yuppie to cling to believing that their government is right and that nothing is out of order.

Basically it is demeaning the people of the patriot movement by painting them as simple hicks and paranoids, and by default undermining the message that the militia movement is attempting to get out. Suppression via slander and propaganda, what our media machine does best.

I don't much care for Beck, but its not as if coined the phrase.

The only stereotypying I see is from the OP.

What I found interesting about this clip is that both the CIA and the retired Sgt basically agreed that the government has overstepped its bounds. The CIA guy also said that the 2nd amendment is there for the citizens to overthrow a tyrannical government. Priceless. Refreshing to see that there are people in these organizations who understand what is going on here.

Glen seemed beside himself when both experts agreed that the military would not shoot their own citizens. The tone Glen had makes me wonder exactly what his agenda is. He seems to flip flop a lot and I find it distressing for someone in his position.

My fathers side of my family hails from WV and my father was born there. When I am done gathering my hoard, I plan to head for the mountains myself.

while off the real topic, i represent that 'bubba effect'...
sad to say, i'd rather be surrounded by a hord of bubba's than a bunch of city folk that would not be able to make it.
I drive a truck, chew, hunt, process my own game.

Its the bubba's that would get everyone else through, sure some may look down at the idea of being referd to as 'bubba' but if you have ever spent time with a country/mountian person you would know that while they are not in general the most educated in world events and latest topics etc. (the true ones, sorry i have to keep up to date on things.. ) They have knowledge that can not only save you, but that they can teach you.
I know a few that would not know the first thing of how to turn a computer on, but if you are hungry, or need a good spot to camp without people, they can tell you where to go and when to be there and which direction to be looking.
I think many people over look them, one i know during hunting season can look at a trail, tell you how many people were driving down it, what they were driving and who it was, all from the tire tracks. They can look at animal tracks, tell you what direction it went, what it was, male/female, and how long ago it passed and where it should be by now.
There is a lot to learn from every walk of life. It may suprise you to spend a bit of time with someone you think is diffrent.
