Nobody's mentioned anything but the stupid phrase.
Why is it suddenly so popular?
Was it coined by some popular "hero"?

Maybe it's due to people substituting "let's get down to brass tacks" with a more concise phrase.

I've haven't heard it once lately,

>Posts a video which opens with "let's get real"
>Says he hasn't heard it once lately

Scotty, I watched that video, and he has way too many assumptions to list through to support his...claims? I think they're claims, but I'm not sure what they are, because he somehow dodged questions before anyone could ask him. EXPERT.

Is diversity of thought being shut down?

Well, you sure are a big proponent of "If I don't like it... shut it down or ridicule it".

you know that's a lie!

....

Hmm..... you oppose anything hinting of socialized medicine, but cannot be bothered to even look at places that have such systems (actually say what they do is utterly irrelevant to us).

When anyone seriously challenges you.. be it on drug testing welfare recipients or a variety of other issues you simply stop posting.... and then come back a while later with the same old ridicules, making it clear you don't really consider opposing viewpoints much, if ever.

I support many of the things Mr Beck is against; greater provisioning for the poor, greater rights for the minorities etc etc.

And hes got me nailed perfectly. I nearly always judge christians on the surface as soon as I realise they are christian.

Christians are almost always good wholesome people who care a huge amount about the well being of others.

Thats what he meant right?

Michael Savage on Glenn Beck -

I'm not exactly a fan of Michael Savage, but his assessment of Glenn Beck is correct. Beck sure knows how to spend a lot of time saying very little.

Neo-cons hate Glenn Beck's guts. Very, very old news....

I think Neo-Cons generally supported the genocide against Serbia. Michael Savage has repeatedly called the genocide against the Serb people a "war crime." He called for George W. Bush's squeeze-toy, Tony Blair, to be shackled and paraded in front of a war crimes tribunal in The Hague, and 17 days later he was banned from entering the UK for life by the Minister of State Security.

Hmm. Well, I wonder about this though. I have been called a Neo-con many times here, mostly by the leftists but also Greekdog and some others on the right. Is your exampled context that same context in which they are speaking? Because I know I have never said or even seen a thing here mentioned genocide against Serbia. I don't think that's what they mean.

What I am getting at here is the "new" definition of Neo-Con, as it is used today. for me, today, I would say neo-con means bigger military, more intervention around the globe, a hard line stance with Israel (somewhat), big gov't, big spending, big debt, pro-military industrial complex, et al

I don't think you're a NeoCon, Scott. Nor are you a Libertarian.

You're on an ideological journey that will probably end with a shootout with the ATF.

Se we can lump both you and Savage in an airtight container with Alex Jones? Not that I would.....but we could.

Alex Jones! Love him. He's in deeper on Homeland Security's payroll than Hal Turner was ... or Glenn Beck or Luke Rudkowski are -

Glenn Beck "gave" over 40 million dollars to the gov't last year. that is a pretty big share of provisioning.

Just curious, how much did you chip in last year? Did you generate over 100 more taxpaying jobs? How many semi's of food did you fill "for the poor"?

Thats my quote so ill assume you're addressing me.

I dont understand how Mr Becks tax bill relates to my point that claiming christians are persecuted is absurd. Care to explain? You seem to have cherry picked the wrong part of my post.

Source? Cos that seems suspiciously like his annual revenue when I put 40 million and Glenn Beck into Google.

Not at all what he's giving to the the gov't.

So yeah, source?

You also made a point about provisions for the poor, which is specifically what my response about "food for the poor" and "tax dollars that go to the poor/provisions". I did not respond to anything to do with your jig on Christ. I just pointed out that when it comes to helping the poor, that is one thing you cannot say Glenn Beck does not do, because he does. In fact, anyone who would say something like that does not know enough about Glenn Beck to have an opinion about being for or "against greater provisioning for the poor"

He only says that it works even better when it's done privately, and he puts his money where his mouth is.

[Lootifer]

Ah ok, in that case, just ignore the bit about me and him disagreeing.

But you have no source to back up you claims? Did you just make it up?

I don't really get what Glenn's point was

Lolol. You watched this and posted about it, Rob?

I didnt mean ignore my point though, you get my point right?

[Phatscotty]

That's fine, but you could also take back what you said about him not wanting increased provisions for the poor....

Well I must admit, I listened to about 30 seconds of his roundabout sarcastic dialog on how homosexuals/blacks persecution has nothing on christian persecution and formed my opinion based on that.

I just assumed you and him shared idealogies since you seem to post a lot of his vids/refer to him a lot.

what? He didn't say any of that in the first 30 seconds..... He talked about why you shouldn't hate people for who they are, and reaffirms that skin color, sexuality, and religion, are not reasons to hate people. And that's about the first whole minute, and he did not mention Christianity once, and I would bet he didn't mention it the entire clip.

maybe you were watching a different clip

[Lootifer]

Do you know anyone who hates someone based on their skin colour?
I dont
Do you know anyone who hates someone based on their sexuality?
I dont
Do you know anyone who hates someone based on their religion?
Haha, as a Mormon I know loads...

To me that is implying that religion, specifically mormonism - a sect of christianity, is far more commonly persecuted than race/sexuality.
