Ho Hum……in the other thread I said Becks comment was smart and classy.

That didn’t last long.

Speaking of activating the youth Me {50s} my 50 something friend , our friend in her 40s are planning on going.

It’s okay for Glenn to activate his white Christian base with fear but its bad for John Stewart to encourage college kids to vote at a rally with a bunch of comedians? Ironically, John Stewart ran a story about a labor union underpaying the people it hired to protest.

In 5 years, one of these two wont be relevant.

Reason and pragmatism! Go!

It was a very good segment, as well.

The only substantive part of beck’s statement is “I guess, I don’t know.”

the vast left wing comedian agenda

Where we may be prepared: Does anyone know if Beck and some of the conservative commentators (not named Bill O’Reilly) will open their remarks to include all MTV Networks? Will there be a boycott and will it include CMT and Nick?

When Beck made noises about boycotting Random House for a few days, he may have dropped it in part because they also published O’Reilly and Ailes’, but there’s no similar crossover between MTV Networks, Fox or anything Beck, so will they become fair game?

Glynnis …I think you need to quit listening to Glenn Beck.

I tend to think your reaction to what is said is a little over reacting…..

Just my thoughts!

Yes, by all means go. This way all of you liberal sycophants can see first hand the paltry number of people that show up.

I look forward to seeing your puffed up reports with glee, GO!

BTW: Clean up after yourselves like the grown-ups do.

BREAKING NEWS: Beck said that the sun is going to rise in the east tomorrow.

Let’s not forget tthat the left went crazy the entire week BEFORE Beck’s rally. The angst and hand wringing on MSNBC was like watching a nerdy teenager being jealous at the high school quarterback for taking the cheerleader to the prom.

I’m willing to bet that tonight will be the only time FNC will be discussing Stewart’s rally.

So what? Beck thinks Stewart wants to activate the youth vote. Compare that to the stuff Stewart says about Beck on a regular basis. I know there is a double standard, in that the Left can indulge in hate speech to cheering crowds, while the Right can issue vanilla policy statements and get called racists, fascists, etc. But for Stewart and his fans to get worked up about this is amazingly thin-skinned for folks who traffic in undiluted ridicule and sarcasm on a daily basis.

Interesting- If you read Beck’s statement without the author’s added sarcasm, there just isn’t much there. It actually is plausible and not really some big news statement.

BUT when you add the writer’s cynical remarks with the statement, the words seem to take on a new meaning. Is this the practice of “making the news” and not just reporting it?

Stewart’s audience is recognized as younger and his influence with the youth has been widely recognized by MANY. So when Beck points out the obvious, this author adds in words like “secret plot”, and kryptonite?

Nice job Glynnis

then Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert will activate the youth to try and get the youth to go out and vote.

You are as blind as a bat… Which southern state are you from?

“Which southern state are you from?”

Bigot

Biggot? I’m from Arkansas asshat and I live in Texas. My point is most obama hate and liberal hate is from the south. Fuck you!

Insults are the last desperate ploy of those who have already lost the argument.

Ha HA… YOu’ve don nothing but snark it up on this site since I’ve been on here. Hypocrisy is something that you must live with because you sure can’t see it. What southern state are you from?

The funniest thing is from Der Fuhrer down none of them understand one bit what the rally is about. Quite amusing watching them screech like 3rd grade girls…

With any kind of decent entertainment, the Stewart/Colbert rally should be at least 60 or 70 thousand. But consider that Eminem sold out two concerts with JayZ in Detroit at 40K each, and U2 or any number of acts, which are encouraging the youth vote, sell out before stadium crowds of 20K plus every night.

Hey Dave Noland,

Please use the John Coltrane avatar again. No one wants to see your ugly ass.

Sucks doesn’t it? Same thing happened with Beck’s rally. NONE of the hating liberals knew what that was about either.

Worse then that, it’s over and they STILL don’t know what it was about. Otherwise, I don’t think they would counter a restoring honor rally that raised millions of dollars for charity, honored patriotic Amercians and brought thousands of people together to honor AMERICA.

Eh I’ve proven that neither Boosh nor Obama but actually Beck is Hitler. Taking it page by page right out of his playbook. Quite fascinating actually if you look into it.

Obama is Stalin, not Hitler. Everyone know’s that.

Well the right already thinks I’m indoctrinated, so should this surprise me?

Awwww Dave. Pretty pathetic comments. I’m sorry, was I supposed to be offended? LOL.

PS: Don’t take it personal Dave. I despise all white boys like you.

Well pathetic is something you are a champion at. You take a personal jab and then call me pathetic for doing the same? What a douche!

Ah… come on, Beck;
Let me bait you into waging a campaign.

Your supporters would support it; the publicity would boost your profile, if that’s even possible and it’d rally all three show’s audiences for a big wave of press. Go ahead, tie your coattails to Jon and everybody wins. Not to mention, imagine the headlines, if you were to perform in peace…

That’s too funny. When I was 19 I was paid by the laborers union to protest a job site. They paid us $6.00/hr. and I remember thinking what hypocrites they were. The actual union members were at home collecting unemployment and we were the union hired “scabs” protesting. Of course there was no way I could protest the union and I needed the money so I took it. I guess the union guys were too good for that.

OH! So you liberals have to have a rock concert to show up in any numbers,eh? Kinda defeats the purpose but will put fannies in the seats for the numbers count.

EPIC FAIL BEFORE IT EVEN STARTS! But do carry on liberals,heh.

@Powerslave: if you haven’t already, you should watch the segment.
It was an instant classic.

Dave, wake us up when you say something of substance, instead of just tossing out playground insults that everyone else gave up at age eight. Of course, that will make us all into Rip Van Winkles….

Uh, is that the only joke you know. It was stale the first time you tried it.

Do you have any indication Stewart and fans are worked up.

Originally Beck was smart and classy by wishing them well. Now he has some comedian conspiracy theory. It just something he made up to try to get his own voters out.

God damnit, Glenn. This was a terrible move.

Beck vs. Stewart in an 80s style or “you got served” dance-off. Heads would explode.

My husband and I are boomers and we are going to the rally because we are sick of the 24/7 news of nonsence. Instead of hours of bashing why not investigate why things are not working. Corperate Americian example well fargo put road blocks up for folks to refiance, stop pointing fingers at each other. We need to take it down a notch and have the fact’s not cable news folks that just like to hear themselves talk.

yes
thank you

As much as I hate to say the FOX/Tea Party leadership is smart. They already have their “news” outlets buffering the results:
1 low turn out & Dem losses “see Stewart and the democrats are out of touch
2. low turn out & Dem wins “Stewart just used the internet to get the young stone slackers to vote for Democrats like sheep”
3. High turn out & Dem losses “Stewart proves that his followers just go wherever to party but, realize the Democrats are wrong for the country”
4. High turn out & Dem wins “Stewart was able to get his mindless followers to put down their bongs and vote for the liberal agenda he represents”

Absolutely.

Look at this site. A few people are willing and able to have rational exchanges of ides and information but so many are so blinded by being partisan that they’ve literally lost their ability to be rational. Dems do something it’s because they suck, are stupid, are liars etc etc, Conservatives do the same thing , it’s because the media is lying, or they weer somehow justified, or whatever. There’s no rational consistency in judgment

Jon S is right. The media loves to amplify the fringes and President Carter is right, having regular access to crazy is sucking more people in , on both sides.
In another article Stewart muses that there might be sapce now for an actual investigative news show to actually make money. No takers so far.

I’ll take #4 and who gives a crap about the whining.

Sounds like beck is trying to repress the youth vote.

Stewart still sux.

BatBoy says: “Glynnis …I think you need to quit listening to Glenn Beck.

How can anyone EVER REACT to a gifted propagandist with a following of millions of apparently ignorant people who don’t know the difference between liberalism and socialism? What is over-reacting to a man who lies through his teeth and then claims to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth?

How can one over react to someone aiding and leading the dumbing down of millions?

Beck doesn’t want the college kids to vote this year because he knows that they won’t fall for his idiotic models, his stupid/absurd lies or his utter lack of principles. Unfortunately, Stewart may not press to get people to vote on the 30th, and Colbert is trying to scare people from voting.

Over react! Bat boy, someone must have clobbered you with a bat in the head!

GlennBeckReview says: “How can anyone EVER REACT….”

Well, that didn’t make sense: How can someone ever over react….?

Beck is a liar, a hypocrite and a charlatan. It’s all documented on The Glenn Beck Review.
