White buck caught on camera
Glenn Beck loses 62 advertisers
Excerpt:
Now we know why Glenn Beck hates Van Jones so much: Fox News' ad revenue from Beck's show has been cut in half since Color of Change launched an advertiser boycott against the show.
Color of Change, the advocacy organization co-founded by Glenn Beck's archnemesis Jones, began calling on advertisers to pull their ads from Beck's show in early August, shortly after Beck accused Obama of having a "deep-seated hatred for white people." Since then, 62 advertisers—from Geico to Proctor & Gamble to Men's Wearhouse—have pulled their ads from his show even as his ratings surged.
Fox's stock response to the boycott has been that, while some advertisers may have moved their spots to other shows on the network, no one was pulling ads from Fox outright, so the whole hubbub wasn't affecting the network's revenues. But today, citing "data analyzed from industry sources," Color of Change announced in a release that Beck's weekly ad revenue dropped from $1,060,000 in the first week of August, when the boycott began, to $492,000 in the first week of September. The chart above shows the drop.Dimbulb Spews
Dimbulb ranting "Obama is ruining my self-esteem. It's two days in a row, now, that I'm feeling really small.
I'm feeling worthless. I'm feeling like I have no purpose and no meaning to my life, and it's all because of Obama."
Well, Lush if you fell so bad why don't you just do the 'right' thing ...
Dimbulb lying and says Obama is "surrendering" the U.S. to "the global powers"
What and to whom is he 'surrendering' to there Lush, Ol'boy?
Lush lies again and claims Obama's policies are fascism, socialism, liberal, progressive, "whatever you want to call them",
Can't get it correct so you just spew them all, eh, Dimbulb?
Dimbulb continues lying saying Obama is "gonna show the rest of the world how to rip us and how to tear us apart"
Nope, Lush, you and your fellow troglodytes have all ready done that job all too well.
Lush lies yet again saying "in Obama's America, the white kids now get beat up with the black kids cheering"
Just a little race-baiting there again you racist prick?!
Dimbulb taking race-baiting to puzzling extremes
This fat pustule is disgusting.

Did you know ...
High fructose corn syrup, the additive that's omnipresent in the processed foods that make up most of most Americans' diet, has mercury in it.
High fructose corn syrup is quite unhealthy, and has been repeatedly linked to the epidemic of diabetes that's been sweeping America in recent years.
Mercury, of course, is rather unwholesome item to have on your menu thrice daily as well.

Insurance giant AETNA is sponsoring a 'real' (wink, wink, nod, nod) "town hall" meeting on health care reform, to be 'moderated' (ahem) by CNN's Tony Harris.
Problem is, this isn't any thing out of the ordinary.
Eric Cantor (reptile-Virginia) explains the repugican position on health care reform, which is, of course, that people who lack health insurance are doomed to suffer and die.
