Your Moment Of Glenn: Beck’s Plan To Bury The Two-Party System

video
» 18 comments

One of the tenets of Glenn Beck’s 100 Year plan for America essentially has to do with getting rid of the two-party system. What he wants to replace the current two-party system with is less clear — Beck is not a fan of socialism in any form so I have to assume he’d be turned off by the parliamentary system, which more easily allows for multiple parties. He’s also said “we need to think like China,” though I’m fairly certain by that he does not mean we need a Chinese-like government.

Anyway, Beck will apparently reveal all the details of his plan once he (makes them up?) publishes his book The Plan sometime between now and next August. All we know for certain is that it will have something to do with re-founding America and restoring “our nation to the maximum freedoms we were supposed to have been protecting” presumably this time without slavery and the complete lack of women’s rights.

In the meantime, Beck has taken to burying the two parties on his show. Almost literally. Video below.

    So does this make him a bi-partisan idealogue?

    Don’t fall off the edge of your seat.

    It certainly confirms his product as hyper-bull.

    It was great seeing Glenn again this weekend.
    I think he remembered me from the last time he was in Tampa.
    Anyhoo, I sure hope he hasn’t gone off the deep-end… next he’ll be idolizing Mao.

    I’ve never watched Glenn and so avoid casting aspersions, even though many of his rantings make the highlight reels here and there enough that one can’t avoid the spillover.

    They do listen to his radio show in our machine shop and his pandering to the least common denominator on various issues makes his routine immediately boringly predictable.

    He knows the success he seeks depends upon a precarious high-wire dance on the edge of decency, appealing to the worst of our nature without getting banned for life.

    It’ll indeed be interesting how he navigates attacking our corporate owned and controlled political system without running afoul of his paymaster and theirs, those who seek only more corporate power and control.

    Will he crash and burn with the corporatism or populism crowd first? Common decency obviously isn’t making a dent.

    Why… is he trying out for a job in the White House?

    Oh, that’s right… it doesn’t have to make sense. You’re still just a stalker, still just saying goofy things to “attack” another poster. And here, after not seeing you all weekend, I thought you had grown up. Oh well.

    What bit of “common decency” has Beck or his supporters ignored?

  • TfT

    INB: NotsoAnonymous (posing here as TinafromTampa) doesn’t understand the meaning of the words “grow up”. She has been stalking me for nearly a year and is just an annoying gnat who ads nothing of substance to this board or the place I left due to incessant attacks, foul language, and stalking. I too had hoped she had finally moved on, but it seems once a stalker always a stalker.

    Apparently 25K folks came out to see Beck this weekend at the Villages. Not bad.

    “Apparently 25K folks came out to see Beck this weekend at the Villages. ”

    The Villages is a hotbed of retirees who are easy prey for demagogues like the Beckerhead. Palin went there several times during the campaign. I’m sure McCain/Palin carried the Villages.

    But how will the Republoteabaggers play in Peoria?

    And here, folks, we see the mentality that has no problem “pulling the plug on grandma.” “The elderly aren’t real citizens,” says the far left… partly because they don’t vote the “correct way,” and party because they can’t grasp that one day, they too, will be old. That is… unless the government starts saying who’s “passed their functionality” and “too expensive to live.”

    (For more info on that… check out yesterday’s “60 Minutes” episode)

    Yea Bill, they are probably nothing more than brain-dead dolts, unlike the savvy Obama voters who chose him because he was going to make their car payments for them.

  • peterfedric

    These people decide that what will be the future of America
    but as we have chosen then so we should have rights
    some rights to decide what is better for our Country.

    Amazing! Blue reads my comment “But how will the Republoteabaggers play in Peoria?” as opposed to the friendly territory that so welcomed Palin and McCain and is overwhelmingly Republoteabaggerist territory as advocating ‘pulling the plog on grandma’ and then too many martinis comes up with the brilliance reflected in “Obama voters who chose him because he was going to make their car payments for them.’

    And in both of them you have proof of the adage that Republoteabaggerists will say anything no matter how stupid it might be.

  • MartiniShark

    What I was trying to contrast for you Bill is that your sweeping assessment of Beck’s crowd is no different than me reducing the Obama acolytes to the simpletons caught on tape at his campaign rallys last fall. I know libs are fond of casting most conservatives as unthinking mouth-breathers so I was citing a similar instance of low-mindedness getting enamored with a demagogue , but found on the other side.

  • Fidoohki

    Bill,

    Despite the mudslinging you do make a good point. How will Sarah Palin play
    in less conservative venues?

  • m

    I think Bill also makes another good point: older people tend to be more conservative. They also vote in higher numbers. Having said that, they also pass away earlier.

    What a well reasoned and thoughtful response. No wonder you criticism the “anti-intellectuals.”

    Are you saying that older people pass away earlier than young people? Because if you are… that’s pretty funny (providing you were attempting some dry humor).
