But as the recession began to ease

No reason to read another word.

But as the recession began to ease . . .

When did this happen? I must have blinked and missed it.

What is your definition of a recession?

“Why is Glen Beck being canceled?”

Not canceled, his contract will expire this year, and for whatever reasons won’t be renewed with Fox News.

I meant the ‘easing of the recession’, not the recession itself. BTW, if your point is that we are in a recovery, I know that the definition of a recession is 3 quarters of no growth, and that the ‘official’ data (that is always downwards adjusted later) shows positive growth, but I question that. Also, we have a lot of growth to do to get back to where we were when Obama took office, and that is where I consider this recession over.

Milbank lost me after “But as the recession began to ease”.

That’s where the writer lost me. Milbank must be a prophet.

When the Berlin Wall came down, Dana was so depressed that he tried to blow his brains out but missed both brain cells. Now he can whistle “Imagine” from the hole under his left ear.

I can’t believe Beck has only been on for 2 1/2 years. Holy Cow, he put more hard facts out than any other show I’ve ever seen.

But as the recession began to ease, Beck’s apocalyptic forecasts and ominous conspiracies became less persuasive,

Stopped reading right there. The economy may be great for homosexual newspaper babblers, but for those of us out here in flyover country, we're just trying to survive on Obama's $4 gas and 25% food inflation.

Reading this kind of stuff just drives regular people away, and Milbank's betters at the Wapo are too ivory-tower themselves to realize it.

It has to be BETTER than “when Bush took over”, because liberals were howling about how bad 7.7% unemployment was.

Dana Milbank is but one of the homo hordes who populate the commie-laden offices of the Washington Compost and the New York Slimes .

He has a history of mocking hostility to the Christian faith in his writings.

Hey, Dana, you dishonest puke.....be not deceived, God is NOT mocked!

Cause I like to stick to what is obvious and easy to establish I’ve fallen out with Glenn beck. I never really bought the Egypt thing.

Why did Beck’s show get pre-empted last night? Anybody know. I tuned in at about 5:10PM and Bret Baier was doing a 2 hour news show.
