...Beck is inquisitive and interesting. His broadcasts offer his opinion, and I choose whether to investigate his ideas or not. He doesn't regurgitate the morning news. Bill Maher's gibes are too personally directed. The arrogance Keith Olbermann displays is foreign to me. Beck is adorable, even when I disagree with him. Is profitability not a concern for TIME, Newsweek or Oprah? Politicians clearly despise middle-class Americans who dare to question them. Should we trust Washington more? Please recognize the real story of Beck's fans: we're everyday working people concerned about the future of our country...

Besides, this health-care debate isn't about those over 30; it's about the millions of uninsured, recently graduated young people saddled with loans we can't imagine paying off, who are sick and tired of living in an abyss created...
...Beck (and Olbermann, Limbaugh, et al.) are laughing all the way to the bank, yet we continue to tune in and ask for more. I ask you, Who are the idiots in this picture...
