Sponsors pull ads from Glenn Beck after racist comments

There is NO doubt. Beck and his comments were racist.

Do you think that someone that calls *anyone* a racist is, himself, racist? Or just someone that calls Obama a racist?

This morning on Fox and Friends, Glenn Beck said he thinks Pres. Barack Obama has "a deep-seeded hatred for white people." Brian Kilmeade questioned him on it, but Beck persisted: "I'm not saying he doesn't like white people, I'm saying he has a problem. This guy is, I believe, a racist."

BTW, you show your true colors by denying that the OP's title indicates that Beck had "racist comments" rather than "'racist' coments." I don't expect anything better from you, though.

What the heck? Glenn's always got The 9-12 Project.

Oh, darn. Look at this.

8/6: The 9-12 Project Focuses On 9-12

Posted by Editor on August 6, 2009

From your 912 Editor ? All commenting software on the site has been disabled for the time being. Please do not read into this any bizarre conspiracy theories. Nothing could be further from the truth. People CAN still communicate with us and other 912-ers, just in a different manner. And in the end, the result will be more efficient communication in a troll-free environment, without some of the pointless rantings to wade through.

Maybe folks got pissed at the 912'ers and Tea Baggers shouting down the Congresswoman in Tampa with their patriotic discourse, banging on the doors at the meeting and acting like a bunch of jerk-offs.

Just like Glenn.

Imagine that.

I have not watched Mr Beck. But if he has the ratings he will get new sponsors.

I read about his Obama is a racist remark. I wrote it off to his stroking the fear some people in the US have about afro-americans.

Anyone you dont agree with is a racist.

He's stated on his radio program numerous times that being racist against illegals is ok because they're breaking the law. Beck has used it in the past to justify anti-latino comments.

Whether you agree with him or not - that's a racist.

Ah the wisdom of being the nativist party in a country of immigrants....

Anyone that says anything negative about O'Bamma is a racist.

I often wonder when the Mormons will realize that all the other fundamentalist Christian sects in this country believe that Mormonism is a Satanic cult worse than any left-wing liberalism...

LOL there's a tiny tiny native population, and Glenn Becks disgusting, white, pale, pudgy, sweaty, filthy caucasian face does not fit the criteria.

I can only imagine what assumptions you're making, but I think you should know that I usually win office competitions for who has the palest skin. My idea of a summer tan is most white folks' winter pale. Hell, there's English royalty with my same surname. Just FYI.

Yeah, j/k. I know that it was bestowed some years ago. Without any research, I'd guess that one of the requirements for 'real' royalty is a certain amount of inbred family lineage.

Why would anyone call Obama a racist, his two best buddies Rev. Jeremiah Wright & Henry Louis Gates Jr. aren't racists and he is just like them.

I've never listened to or seen Glenn Beck, but for as much as you lefty fruitcakes get your panties knotted up over the guy, I hope he keeps it up. What would this forum be without the righteous indignation of the loony left?

He's a bipolar, authoritarian coward like most Neocons (that's why they love guns so much: they're afraid) who scares the shit out of other cowards with his lunatic ramblings. He's got his televangelist persona down. You'd like him.

Indeed, but it just goes to show you don't have to watch someone to champion their ideas.

Which makes so much sense seeing one of his parents was white, and he was raised by his white grandparents. Limbaugh and Hannity didn't let you in on that one, did they, Sweetcheeks?

So by your assertion Obama is not a racist by default but his actions have shown otherwise. Yeah Obama's grandmother is a typical white person, I'm sure that Wright and Gates told Obama what a typical white person is.

 

[JKing106]

What actions? Tell me exactly what he's done that proves him to be a racist. I'll give you time to call your local Klan dragon to tell you the answer.

Still no answer. Always someone else's name. Want to try again, after you're done with your cross burning?

And there won't be. He doesn't know anything, except what he's told. Gotta love a Limbot.

I'm not really sure what he is, all I ever see him do is troll the boards. Every time he pops up I'm surprised all over again that he hasn't been banned yet.
