Glenn Beck Goes After Barbara Bush, Calling Her The “Oatmeal Box Lady”

video
» 128 comments

Glenn Beck was not happy with Barbara Bush’s oh-so-thinly veiled attack on Sarah Palin from over the weekend. Although he says the former first lady is his “favorite Bush,” he called her comments “really insulting” and called her the “oatmeal box lady,” apparently comparing her to the man in the Quaker Oats logo (Who, it turns out, isn’t William Penn. Huh. You learn something new every day).

While Beck felt the comments were condescending, he basically waved them away by saying that Bush isn’t “a political animal” and pointing out that her husband, the “politician” of the couple, claims to not know what the Tea Party is. He ends by saying that George H. W. Bush was very progressive and was the first president to use the term “New World Order.” And you thought there’d be no George Soros connection.

Really though, it’s interesting to hear the Bushes, such stalwarts of the Republican community for so long, get dumped on like this. The family that brought us two presidents is even compared (very jokingly!) to the Wayans and Jackson families.

However, if you’re going to feel bad for anyone, feel bad for Larry King. Beck claims that the TV host makes Barbara Bush “look like she’s 30″. Now that’s insulting!

    Hey Donna,
    If I’m so hateful, how come no lefty has ever been able to point to one hateful post from me, the numerous times I’ve asked? Hey if you have one, let me have it!

    Guess that didn’t take long to prove.

    Some republicans will never learn to keep their mouths shut about Palin that includes George Will.
    If Palin runs she will have to win debates against formidable opponents. If she wins all these clowns will have to face their ignorant past comments. If she doesn’t they can say I told you so. Not likely.
    I don’t know why they are worried about Palin facing Obama? He has proven that he has no idea what he is doing. He didn’t really win the debates against McCain and McCain was terrible. She beat Biden by a wide margin even Will and other naysayers were surprised.
    How does Will know that she is NOT getting ready by going over the issues with consultants at home?
    These republicans just like to have the libs praise them for being anti-Palin. Suck ups.
    She is helping the party far more than ANY of the Bush’s are. Bush the elder is hanging with Clinton and they younger won’t say anything bad about the most ignorant president we have ever had. How does that help anyone?

    You said you didn’t say anything hateful…. You did. Another post claimed Beck followers to be blind and pathetic. That was said due to the fact that Beck followers, such as yourself, NEVER have a disagreement with the guy and do, in fact, blindly follow everything he says.

    If you’re not blind, and not hateful to those that disagree with Beck, then prove me wrong and I promise I will apologize. To prove it so you’ll have to prove to me that you do not blindly agree with everything Glenn Beck says or believes in. I’ve seen you blindly agree with everything Beck, Limbaugh, Palin, and Hannity say… and disagree with everything that a liberal (like being a liberal is fungus) says.

    I want to be able to apologize, so please, show me that I need to.

  • rr98411

    Can we not all agree that when you are asked what is now the standard yet infamous… “What do you think of Sarah Palin?” question, one needs to realize that you have been asked the question from interview hell. Their is no middle ground on this one nor I dare say any upside to answering this question. You are screwed. All you can do at this point is to minimize the damage to ones reputation. Sorry, I like Ms Bush (Mama version) but when you are clearly on the bash Sarah side of the line you have awoken the Palinistas and the devils wrath they bring with them.

    On the opposite side if she complemented Ms Palin then the hate Palin crowd would have called her senile… that would be the nicest thing.

    God, I hate these “what do you think of Sarah Palin?” questions…

    And Barbara Bush. I’m convinced (and Blow Hard with a show, this is an opinion, so you can’t accuse me of “lying” as you love to falsely claim) that the old guard of the Republican Party, moderates and conservatives, see the reactionary Palin as a threat to their hopes of taking back the White House in 2012. They understand that their base is susceptible to good looks, empty one-liners and a few winks (it was enough for Ronald Reagan), so no matter who actually wins any debates that you keep mentioning, she might win the nomination, qualified or not.

    That would be a disaster for the Republicans.

    So far you have done nothing to prove that you’re not hateful to those that you plainly call “libs”, or anyone that disagrees with your deity.

    What planet have you been living on? Bush the elder has been getting dumped on by conservatives for like the nearly the last 30 years…certainly the last 20. Bush the elder would be classified as a RINO and there’s only one thing worse than a RINO…a Progressive. Beck’s reaction is neither atypical nor surprising.

    I think this pretty much proves that there is a profound difference between the Beck and Limbaugh followers, and decent Republicans. The GOP has been hijacked by these talk show creatures who preach hate, and their followers, who for whatever reason, blindly listen to every disgusting word spoken by Limbaugh, Beck, Savage and others of their ilk. These people are not Republicans. They are not patriots, rather they are armchair patriots who will sacrifice nothing, but declare they love their country. And then they will go on with foul comments about Barbara Bush and anyone else with the temerity to disagree with them.

    “Really though, it’s interesting to hear the Bushes, such stalwarts of the Republican community for so long, get dumped on like this.”

    What planet have you been living on? Bush the elder has been getting dumped on by conservatives for like the nearly the last 30 years…certainly the last 20. Bush the elder would be classified as a RINO and there’s only one thing worse than a RINO…a Progressive. Beck’s reaction is neither atypical nor surprising.

    Beck’s reaction may not be surprising and it could play to the “we dump on both parties narrative”, but no one can say that the former Party Chair wasn’t a true member. It seems membership would be one certain prerequisite to being put in charge.

    “GBR, even if a story comes out that Beck plowed into a busload of orphans because he was distracted by the porn on his cell phone, I can’t really see how it will affect me personally.”

    I don’t expect this to affect the views of Beck from the left as I intimated on The Review. I’m not at liberty to offer any clues about this story, so I can’t write what section of his supporters will be most affected by the information. My guess at this point is that you, “writer” will believe Beck’s denials of the facts. Even if you accept them as true, it’s nothing that changes much. Beck will still be a liar, a hypocrite and a charlatan, only more embarrassed for a while. (Hopefully, the rest of his life.)

    I initially argued against making this info public. The more sheer sleaziness that I heard from Beck over the last few months, the more I became inclined to change my argument FOR making this info public.

    Kird says:
    “… If you have what you say you have, what purpose would it serve to brag about it a comment section small web site?”

    You mean The Review or MediaFight? What purpose does it serve to mention it at all? Talk about double standards, Beck builds up anticipation for stories he’s going to cover for days, sometimes longer; but we can’t do the same? I could go into hyper hype and say that it’s going to be a bombshell, but I’m not sure what effect it’s going to have quite honestly.

    I was quite shocked by the information when I first heard it over two months ago. There is quite a bit about the details that I do not know about, but I’m fairly sure that the story should be sold to a larger magazine. That idea came from another detractor of Mr. Beck, but I don’t know if the journalist who literally stumbled into this info is going to find a buyer.

    Pablo says:
    “I don’t envy you having to make that call.”

    Thanks. It’s a story that should be broken by the National Inquirer. They actually break some real news stories sometimes and lots of sleazy stuff. This “bombshell” is somewhere in between.

    Democrats say the Republicans are kicking out anybody that doesn’t tow the line 100%. Republican say that’s nonsense, and they’re a big tent party. Then, in an effort to kill their own argument, Republicans throw anyone under the bus that dares to think independently.

    first off, Barbra Bush shouldn’t have attacked Sarah Palin like that, and Mr. Beck has gone a little far calling Barbra Bush “oatmeal box lady” (although I do admit that is sort of funny)
    what Beck is trying to point out is that the Republicans has lost their conservative roots and forgotten their principles and the U.S Constitution in favor for power, money, and entitlements. the Democrats lost their principles of fighting for the little guy for the same power, money, and entitlements. the principles of progressives are power, money, and entitlements and progressives can be very arrogant, that’s the same corruption that has infected both the democrats and republicans, both parties have lost their principles are are toxic. Sarah Palin is trying to bring back the principles what Republicans and Democrats suppose to be for: conservative roots, fighting for the little guy, open to new ideas, keeping traditions like the U.S Constitution, help one another and move this country foreword by putting people first and respecting the U.S Constitution

    No, Papshmer, unless you believe that faith, hope and charity hold up the Constitution, you HAVE to concede that Beck is a phony when it comes to actually understanding the subject he talks about. He has no college, but even a high school graduate knows that the SCOTUS upholds the Constitution. Beck is a phony!

    If you think that unleashing the transnational corporations, which is what conservative principles allow, is “fighting for the little guy,” you need to wake up and small the Libertarian mythology.

    Palin and other reactionaries want to tear down the wall of separation between church and state. For that alone they should be recognized for what they are: an American version of the Afghan Taliban and fundamentally anti-Constitutional.

    Drew, your problem is that you believe the horsecrap that comes out of Beck’s mouth. Beck peppers his narratives with facts to cleverly convey that he’s telling the truth and then tells a story that is not about reality. He paints an alternative world view and then claims that he’s got a special insight. It’s true, when one has their head up their ass, it gives them a special and unique perspective.

    Seriously, Drew, you are following and parroting a rodeo clown, self-promoting entertainment genius who is successfully fooling millions of his minions all of the time. Beck skill at the hoodwinking doesn’t make him right; it makes Lincoln seem like a visionary. Lincoln was right: you can fool some of the people all of the time. What people? Gullible fools. Drew, I wouldn’t be too proud of your affinity for this clown and self-proclaimed messenger of God. Beck is the bastard offspring from when Lonesome Rhodes had sex with Elmer Gantry. (Hey, it’s fiction; since Beck creates a fictional understanding of the world, I will exercise dramatic license to make Beck the offspring of gay sex.)
