Glenn Beck is not a Republican (if that's what you were implying), he's a self-proclaimed independant.

Sure he isn't. That's why he interviewed Sarah Palin on his first show.

Those of us on the right get what he is trying to say and understand his little illustration. Even if he is a bit over the top.

The left just looks at him and thinks "wow what a nut job.' You guys take yourself to seriously to understand what Beck is doing.

It's all a farce. If he sat there and calmly talked about how he disagrees with Obama it would be boring and no one would be watching it and no one would care about what he says. So puts on these over the top presentations and makes over the top statements and all of a sudden people start paying attention to what he is saying.


BTW Remember back to the 06 election when the lefties were making all these threads about how great Olberman's rants were? How were they any different than what Beck is doing now?

Olberman's rant's are mainly true?

Well, yeah-that, and also Olberman wasn't crying like a spoiled little baby every 5 minutes like Glenda.

Olbermann to my knowledge has never pretended to light a fellow castmember on fire, baited elected politicians to shoot him in the head, nor shed fake tears in a 9/11 exploitationathon. Olbermann and the commentary clowns on the right may be opposite forces, but they are definitely not equal.

Bullshit, all the remarks about Bush killing soldiers. Bush killing innocents civilians, 9/11 as a conspiracy.

Your hate blinds you beyond belief....

And it's threads like these that prove why Fox has three of the top five shows on Cable News. Hook, line, and sinker.

Don't think Olbermann ever came out and said Bush was intentionally trying to kill soldiers or innocents. Just that those were results of the war - and don't make shit up about him claiming 9/11 was a conspiracy.

I have no hate clouding my thinking - that's one thing that differentiates me from clowns like Beck, Limbaugh, and Hannity, not to mention their followers.

When people like this just die off, this country will be so much better. The guy is nothing short of a Timothy McVeigh waiting to happen. And he is doing his best to inspire people to act dangerously. He should just be taken off the air.

Exactly. Even if it's just an Act meant to draw Viewers to the spectacle, it's on a fucking "News" Network and doesn't belong there. People take that shit seriously, they might be Losers, but that's besides the point.

A person can self-proclaim anything they want, it doesn't mean it's true.

Glenn Beck can proclaim anything he wants, and it means it probably isn't true. :laugh:

This shit is funny as hell. The more PJ and his like write CNN for more BS, the more Fox News will play this crap and the more of a Joke the news station will become. Will be interesting to see how far this crap goes. Maybe it will be the new Laughing stock.

"We didn't vote to lose the Republic" Sheesh... what a goof! Yeah, wee we didn't vote to keep them in power either.

Wow! He's losing it! Do you think one day he'll just go so far off the deep end he'll smash his head on his desk so hard and so many times that he stops moving?

Stop reading the bullshit that comes out of the ultra-left Media Matters :roll:

He jokes around a lot, it's just the way he is.

He's a millstone around the neck of conservatism and he needs to be repudiated, strongly, by conservatism's leading thinkers. Unfortunately, most of those are too scared of the torches and pitchfork backlash from the anti-intellectual wing of the party to actually come out and call Beck the moron he is.

The longer this man, and others like him, are allowed to be portrayed as the face of conservatism, the better things are for liberals. Frankly I'm not sure that I would really mind if Obama had Beck "taken care of".

ZV

^ Gold. Absolutely true. Tools like GB are poison to thinking conservatives (a la Buckley, RIP).

What, you can't be that damn stupid. This not about the damn constitution. You got people panicing, killing themselves, others, even their own children. Then get this guy goes on tv making suggestions of the president blowing his brains out and lighting people on fire. Are bleeping kidding me. And all you can think of is some amendment argument. What a joke, idiot.

First, I actually found it entertaining! I don't think Obama's that criminal..........but he's definitely pullin' some stunts lately that have me wondering WTF he's doing!!

The topic of the moment on that particular GB (I never really watched the guy & haven't seen him since he was on CNN but.......) was about illegal immigration.

In case you didn't know how serious a problem/threat it is to our country, check out.........

http://www.immigrationcounters.com

The best man at my wedding is a border partrol agent (yes, gun toting, real-deal) who works the border south of San Diego. He's been shot at more times than he & I drank beers together in college. And, yes, he's more than once told me that if the U.S. does not get the border situation under control and/or take care of the illegal alien problem in the U.S. we are going to be up shit creek in more ways than one.

It's no less than any of the "liberal" nut jobs on TV.......they're trying to get their point acrossed w/ ratings...........and this is no more outlandish or offensive than any of the other shit I've seen on TV.

What I *do* know is that if Obama does go for amnesty........he might as well just shoot us cuz he'll be doing more harm to this country than somebody like Beck could do in a thousand skits no matter who's writing them.

I wholeheartedly agree with your assessment. Yet I would go so far as to say we've past the tipping point. There is no going back to the way things were, before our country was flooded by poverty. Also, seeing as our government is the one forcing this situation on us, anyone who cares about this issue should be pushing for and forcing secession.

Only after we secure the freedom to act, can we begin to stem the tide of this flood.

Why is it that conservatives need shiny things to keep them entertained?
