I was just wondering if anyone came up with a legit news source backing up Beck on this. I know that there are several debunking it. All I am looking for is a link, if you have that please share it (not looking for an argument, just some real facts to base my opinion on, if the Beck story is true I want to know).
Danr, I have a question or two for you. Under Obamacare, do I lose the priviliege to continue carrying my current private insurance. I am happy with my coverage, happy with the cost & happy with the care I receive. Do I lose the freedom to determine my own healthcare needs & solutions? Will I be forced to participate in a program that is worse than the one I selected for me & my family?
Dan I'll try to get a screenshot of it . I am sure someone saved it. Thanks for having an open mind on this.
I am getting close Dan, I did find the text and the link to it. You will see however that the link has been taken down as I said. That is the EXACT text I saw. I'll agree with you before you even comment, the original poster of this thread is a wacko. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20090802095551AASBrZy
Heres an actual screenshot. This is the now dead link that was taken down. http://wethepeople.org/wpblog/index...ash-for-clunkers-warning-big-brother-invades/
It appears there was some hoodwinking by Beck after all. The text did exsist, but not in the format in which he claimed. That is why I posted no comment to my original link, I had not done any investigation at that point.
that screen shot was of "supplierpayments.gov" not cars.gov. Cars.gov is the citizen one supplierpayments.gov seems like the dealer one.
I would guess that the link originally mentioned on the Barry Young show was thru the Beck website. I may have fallen for it. I do know what I saw, that is the text above, but I may have been fooled as to it's source. Shame on you Glen Beck if thats the case. I am reading your most current book as I type...bought it at Costco last weekend. If you have shystered me, no more of my money for you. DanR, this sort of honest debate is great. You are the one Dem here who will reason and think for yourself. I saw a thread the other day that stated " DanR is for the plan just to be for it " , or something like that. Folks, DanR does what I do alot. Post something farfetched and watch the reaction. I have met him in person and we got along great, he is no dummy.
Just two words from a "casual observer" on this thread Jack. Thank you. You took the time to dig into this and honestly reported what you found. There may be more to find. If you find the original assertion by Beck was indeed true I'd actually be more willing to accept and admit it. You did the digging and reporting. More than I would have. You get a gold star and happy face and I don't hand those out often.
I thought it was BS all along and I didnt even have to do any research. Not taking anything away from any one but, doing what I did and do for a living you get to read people pretty well. I was being kind when I called Beck a doof. But no matter. even if all his viewers were shown that what he did with that computer was BS, they will still watch him and quote him and defend him.
Dateline Phoenix AZ, Aug 14th, 11:37 pm. You guys, I really don't think this is a partisan issue. This is a truth issue. Thanks Clembo for the Kudos. I think that you, if anyone here , knows me, I am a get at the facts guy. Beck F'd us. He hoodwinked and shystered us. For ratings. Wow, that hurts my cause, but, my cause is truth, so I guess if Beck is a hoodwinker, we will now adjust our opinions of him and be sceptical in the future. Does he not get that these sort of episodes detract rom your credibility? Why would a person with a national audience risk credibility. I do admit I am a bit let down. Alot let down. If I will go on a fact hunt on the Dems, I am sure I could dig as much dirt. That much is easy. The main prob is those who blindly trust and take as gospel what these freakin liars tell us. Repo liars, Dem liars, Indy liars, what do they have in common? They are politicians. They no longer represent us, they represent themselves. Thats the sucky part, and they are laughing because we are fighhting each other, the disagreement among partys is nothing more than a distraction. When Americans fight each other, the politicians win.
Dont forget the crying. But he was able to discard that emotion before the one minute commercial break.
well I am just looking for that link " Danr, I have a question or two for you. Under Obamacare, do I lose the priviliege to continue carrying my current private insurance. The bill is not written yet am happy with my coverage, happy with the cost & happy with the care I receive. Do I lose the freedom to determine my own healthcare needs & solutions? Will I be forced to participate in a program that is worse than the one I selected for me & my family? If that is your concern contact your senator, there is no senate bill yet __________________ "this?
There is no bill? That's your answer? Then what's all the furor about? Man, Robert Gibbs would be proud of you.
There simply is no answer to your question yet. If you are concerned about those things contact your senators and let them know, they are the ones making the bill.
