Glenn Beck Acts Mentally Disabled To Further Mock David Carr’s Comments On Real Time

Glenn Beck seemed to have reached the pinnacle of potential shock value to be had out of The New York Times‘s David Carr making a bad joke comparing Middle Americans to neanderthals on his radio show this morning, calling it the sort of comment “that leads to mass death.” He managed to top himself on his television program today, however, imitating a disabled person to give viewers a sense of what he thinks Carr believes people in the middle of the country are like.

Mocking the President for being “a brilliant Harvard pragmatist”– with these kinds of insults, who needs compliments?– Beck turned the conversation from the “alleged” education of the President to the “alleged” ignorance of those in the middle of the country who oppose him, as described by Carr. This time, however, he refrained from evoking the horrors of early 20th century euthanasia projects and death camps, instead opting to behave like “those people with the low-sloping foreheads, the Neanderthals,” as Carr called them on Real Time with Bill Maher.

Except Beck’s imitation of Neanderthal wasn’t so much ape-like but downright… disabled. He was fairly plainly, amid the twitching and bizarre facial expressions, behaving like someone with a serious mental deficiency– which, in some sense, made his point. Beck claims that, according to Carr and other “elitists” (read: people who are respected for knowing things about politics), the Johnny-come-latelys who have never participated in government until the Tea Party came around are to be treated as if their ideas are the product of some sort of mental illness– as if they themselves are mentally disabled. In the process, though, Beck stopped making fun of Carr and very visibly made fun of the mentally disabled.

The nuance of his joke was entirely lost, to the point where it would be perfectly valid for those with handicaps and their loved ones, or anyone with a sense of decency about how the disabled should be treated in our society, to be offended by this conduct. Beck’s transgression into offensive territory is certainly not new in political media– plenty of people on the left and right have had the internet equivalent of rotten tomatoes thrown at them for similar mockery, as is appropriate to maintain civil discourse. But that he isn’t the first (and, unfortunately, probably not the last) to pick on the weakest in our society to gain political points with his audience is no excuse to do so, reprehensible comments from what to Beck are “the bad guys” notwithstanding.

Once again, attacking beck for what Carr said. You mediaite staff stick together to protect your lefty buddies at all/any cost.

So funny.

It’s okay to act that way, or to use the word “libtard” on a regular basis, but Sarah Palin’s retarded child is off-limits!

But for real, the kid should be off-limits, as should the word libtard. Haven’t you seen the commercial? Imagine if it were libger, or libkike. Yeah.

Gee whiz. This is outrageous. I hope Beck behaves differently when he attempts to restore courage to the state of Israel in a few months. Why do I get the strong impression that Roger Ailes, and the other former GOP operatives who run Fox News are going to pop open many bottles of champagne after Beck’s final show. Beck has become time and again a major embarrassment for the network. Ailes has made some very good decisions over the years. I’m sure this is one he would like to have the opportunity to reconsider.

Frances Martel, a tiny, jealous little person who believes her road to riches must necessarily include hating others as part of her resume. David Carr insulted and made a mockery of millions of people, yet Frances brushes that aside to focus on Beck’s response, further peddling the hatred she and the rest of the West Side Wannabes feel for real Americans. What a pathetic life that must be.

Boy that Beck must have made some very valid points today about how the Leftist intelligentsia has been looking down their noses at average Americans since the turn of the last century.
What other reason would Mediaite and the rest of the far-left blogosphere be going to such extreme lengths to nit-pic at his comments, except that he touched a nerve and exposed the Leftist condescension and snobbery for what it is.

Dan must be so proud; all this mediaite staffers live in the liberal bubble of protecting each other and only going after conservatives. I doubt Dan had this much biased reportage in his mind when he opened this board.

Really; the entire Carr story was ignored until Beck spoke. this faux outrage is really getting annoying as all get out.

Hmm, a writer in the New York Times makes an very insensitive remark, but the criticism is focused on Beck for poking fun at it. Of course, the way this story is twisted out of shape is emblematic of how the liberal media covers so many stories nowadays. The real story is buried, while the liberal counter-story gets covered in its place. Hey, guys, it’s not like we can’t see what you’re doing here.

Meanwhile the same people attacking Beck here didn’t seem to have a problem when Jon Stewart used an Amos & Andy impersonation to make fun of Herman Cain.

But that’s the American Left for you – they build their whole approach to political punditry on ridicule and attacks, but heaven forbid that someone gives them a taste of their own Saul Alinsky ridicule.

Now I am not saying that Carr is disabled….but his Michael Jackson hat thing is kinda creepy. Jackson is dead, David. Stop trying to do his moves, unless you can do a pretty substantial moon walk and then give a post modernist “moon talk” to boot, my Ivy League Thriller Diller.

Put another way: David is proof that white people cannot dance. Even with words.
JerseyJones

Or…does that hat hide…I’m just asking…a sloping forehead of his own?

And we all can see that Maher’s forehead (If you subtract the hair plugs out…) has a bunny slope to his fore-skull to boot. (Not to boot…as in kick. Do not kick Bill Maher’s forehead bunny slope. Not even metaphorically. It might hurt. Metaphorically hurt, that is.)

Anyway. Of this I am sure: David Carr cannot moon walk, even down the sloping forehead of Bill Maher before he is grafted with hair plugs. The plugs would block the free flow of gravity and smoothy moon walking.

All this points to the moon. Sheriff Joe Biden, arrest that moon walking caucasoid.

It does not require acting for Beck to look mentally disabled.

Come on Frances – have you any idea what a neanderthal would act like – of course not, you just like bashing Beck. I figure his guess as to how one would act is as good as anyone else’s. leave the man alone and go after Carr.

Thank God Beck is going, and this is just another example of why he became even too much for FOX and Murdoch. Carr is an excellent journalist but he’s not a skilled TV personality, unless he said what he said on purpose, but his apology seemed serious.
Some of the best people in America are mid-westerners and southerners, but less face it there are more easily led, naive people in the midwest and south than in coastal areas. We’ve witnessed the dumbing down of America through these anti-abortion, anti-evolution, anti-progress movements coming from these areas. Unfortunately, our corrupt, bought politicians, many of whom are Republicans have been pandering to these people for ages.
Fifty years ago it was Nixon’s southern strategy that brought millions of southern Democrats into the Republican fold because they couldn’t handle Lyndon Johnson’s civil rights legislation. Then it was the hard right Evangelicals politicizing in their churches. Then it was the super patriots who went along with all our stupid wars, the most egregious, of course, was Bush’s Iraqi disaster that anyone with half a brain knew would end in disaster. Frankly, making any headway against all this ignorance is difficult when so many brainwashed people keep voting for idiots and against their own self-interest. I do beleive we are reaching the saturation point and that 2012 is going to see some dramatic changes, and I don’t mean that Obama is going to be tossed out. Quite the contrary, I think the rightwing movement has overplayed its hand, and that the current elevation of Michele Bachmann is going to bring a lot more of the crazy contradictions out into the open. We might even be on the verge of the great American Wakening.

Gee – instead of poking fun at “disabled persons,” it seems like all the world to me as if Beck is acting out in the fashion of a “low-sloping forehead” David Carr supposes those who don’t share his cultural identity might act in order to show just what disregard Carr has for the American people.

This is pure mockery of a shockingly bigoted, supremacist idea given voice by yet another NYT type. Do the authors of Mediaite not know it when they see it?

It doesn’t seem so. Or perhaps they would rather ignore (no mention of the David Carr “gaffe” – if it was even noted as being one, as if it ought to be acceptable for cultural commentators to routinely make dehumanizing statements about middle Americans) and cover up (The only two stories about Carr’s “gaffe” are two opinion pieces castigating Glenn Beck) for the bigotry of the NYT’s guy by deflecting attention onto Glenn Beck for having the temerity to openly criticize a bigot.

Mediaite Compares Mentally Disabled to Neanderthals?

“The nuance of his joke was entirely lost, to the point where it would be perfectly valid for those with handicaps and their loved ones, or anyone with a sense of decency about how the disabled should be treated in our society, to be offended by this conduct.”

Beck’s daughter has cerebral palsy. He wasn’t making fun of the disabled. He was mocking David Carr and imitating a neanderthal.

The nuance of his joke was entirely lost on you, Frances, because you’re a Beck hating liberal. You assumed he was mocking the disable because, I guess, his imitation is how you view the disabled. If anyone should be offended by anything, they should be offended by you “picking on the weakest in our society to gain political points”.

Mediaite has always been a left-wing outlet but it had not devolved into the Daily Kos realm. That is until recently. Frances should be ashamed of herself. Instead of flat out lying about Beck and making up a story about him picking on disabled people, you should have just called him a racist. I mean, that’s what your side usually does.

Fact: Glenn Beck has found another sick NY’er that hasn’t a clue how it is to live outside a human ant bed.

This is the reason I can’t take Beck serously is him mocking groups disable people to make his point it’s over the top. Beck will not be the last one to do it and I don’t like when others do it either, at least Beck is gone in 3 days off Fox News Glenn will be doing more of this with his GBTV over top mocking groups which isn’t cool at all. I thought that Beck was wrong to mock Maghan McCain weight & mocking people that have skin cancer about a mouth ago I thought Fox should have made Beck leave more early after that.

Being a disability advocate I find Beck’s so called stab at humor by “impersonating people with mental disabilities absolutely deplorable and downright insensitive. A male cousin is developmentally disabled and I shudder to think how would feel watching Beck’s offensive mimicry. It seems to me the two populations most poked fun of are mentally ill and the persons with developmental disabilities. This is terribly wrong, inssensitive

Of course, Beck wasn’t impersonating people with mental disabilities. He was impersonating people of “low-sloped foreheads” in mockery of David Carr’s bigoted commentary. Carr described middle Americans as Neanderthals. I don’t know how you do that in such a way that wouldn’t evoke the imagery of a person with a mental disability but if you can’t see Beck’s point, you’re not of fair mind. Because the direct comparison of middle Americans to people who are mentally challenged was DAVID CARR’S – totally serious – point; that’s the imagery HE wished to evoke.

The critiques offered by the authors at this site are pure deflection of Carr’s bigoted gaffe onto Beck. The deflection worked in your case, it would seem. Whether that indicates that either you were willing to be manipulated, disliking Beck, or that you found the narrative of the authors persuasive does you no credit.

This is a Mediaite writer trying to pander to the left wing bigots on Maher’s program, so when Beck points out the intolerance of the left by mocking them as they do most of America, he’s the one who should make amends. Beck was “impersonating” the way this NYTimes writer, and most of the “deep thinkers” on this show, feel about anybody on the right or anyone who diverges from the left’s orthodoxy.

Liberal tolerance = oxymoron!

This mediaite writer…using Beck to try to make “something” when it’s really “much ado about nothing.”

The real focus should be on the bigoted and hateful NYTimes writer and the rest of this gang of bigots.

Glenn Beck Acts Mentally Disabled To Further Mock David Carr’s Comments On Real Time

Accurate ONLY if you’re saying that liberals are mentally disabled.

Your motives and spin are so transparent Ms. Martel: I don’t think he was “acting as though he were mentally disabled;” I think your choice of words are intended to make people believe that’s what he was doing.

Being a disability advocate I find Beck’s so called stab at humor by “impersonating people with mental disabilities absolutely deplorable and downright insensitive. A male cousin is developmentally disabled and I shudder to think how would feel watching Beck’s offensive mimicry. It seems to me the two populations most poked fun of are mentally ill and the persons with developmental disabilities. This is terribly wrong, inssensitive

You bought into the spin. Please see the above post. I saw the segment and know Ms. Martel is displaying her difficulties with the truth.
