Come on Chicken Little Beck rodeo clown wannbes. Your Dear Leader has spoken!

Fall in line like the robots you are with your talking points!

Behold! Gandalf the EXTREMELY White!

He was imitating Yoda from Star Wars.

The protestors across the Middle East are being imbued with ANTI-ISRAEL, Anti-AMERICAN, vitriol from Iran, Al Qaeda., the Muslim Brotherhood, and Progressive Democrats; and all Glenn Beck does is point this out – DEMONSTRABLY, ON VIDEO!

If you find something awry in his analyses, then refute it! – don’t act like a dysfunctional juvenile, with only name-calling!

You got the goods? Then bring it on.
I’m sure Glenn would be happy to debate.

LOL at Beck having to open his last two shows explaining he’s not a lunatic or a scare-mongerer.

Not a good sign.

I’m curious, has Australia been taken over by the Chinese yet?

How’d Olbermann open his last two?

Maybe Beck has come to lead the Chicken Little Gang out of the Valley of the Liberals, to the Promised Land, when gold coins and seed packets grow on trees and all the TV’s only have one channel…..

Methinks NORBIT is packing to follow.

I feel sympathy fo his viewers who come here to defend beck. I have no idea how the journalists at fox news feel about the work of this nutjob. And glenn beck loyalists, the joke is on you idiots.

One interesting little snippet came when one of Beck’s guests described Egypt and Tunisia as very dry places that therefore had problems producing food.

“You could say that about Mexico” said Glenn, one assumes, attempting to increase the fear of revolution in our southern neighbor (which BTW produces increasing amounts of food for the US).

Of course, “dry” is an accurate description of northern Mexico, in much the same way as it is an accurate description of Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and south California. It is about as off the mark as one can get to describe the rest of Mexico which includes arable land, rain forest and jungle all the way down to the border with Guatemala and Belize.

A mistake here, a mistake there, after awhile it begins to add up.

I don’t quite think “nutjob” and “idiots” quite rises to that standard.

Eff off old man. There are bad people everywhere. Only the lunatics make it look larger than life. Like he did with that video of protest where they talk about lynching the supreme court justice. We already know, thanks to Tommy C, the guy behind the video used the word lynching first and then all the protestors went o dine with your beloved Andrew brietbart. What u saying, you hero Andrew is palling with terrorists?

At least give Beck credit for the thousands of jobs he has created
in the Laundry and Dry Cleaning Industry.
He has all you lefty Nut Sacks soiling your underwear two or three
time each day especially during radio and TV shows.
Then laughs all the way to the bank!
You can’t make this up!!!!! LMAO

The man is a genius. Funny as hell.

But he intends to deliver his chosen to the promised land.

If Glenn was an idiot & insignificant lunatic, you lefty pond scummers wouldn’t reserve such
perverse & depraved hatred ..Like rabid dogs showing teeth at the mere mention
of Glenn Beck & Sarah Palin.. Transparent foolish hate mongers.
WE TAKE YOUR HATE AS A BADGE OF HONOR!
Gig’s up & u know it thanks to Glenn,, that ticks u off doesn’t it?? Tough poops.
The very same (not) enlightened intellectually superior, peace loving hippies as in:
(see below)

The rally, which was sponsored by leftist’s organizations, including Code Pink, had attendees making violent and racists threats against a Fox Execs, a Supreme Court justice, and Glenn.
********************
“They’re calling for revolution. *****The people in the crowd are saying that Clarence Thomas should have all of his fingers and toes cut off and fed to him,**** that Roger Ailes should be hung, *****
******that I should be gunned down,******* that Clarence Thomas should be put out in the fields,****** that Scalia should be sent back to [Sicily],” Glenn said.

“And it’s not just one person. It’s several people. All white.”

“ So you have this real rage and real hate. And remember, this is what Frances Fox Piven is saying: Find your rage, find your anger, blame it on your boss, blame it on the capitalist system. This is what’s being fomented right now.”

Definately not.. We have been supporting monarchies and dictatorships suppressing Islam and this is what we get. You can’t have government suppression of extremism and just hope that there would be no more uprisings because uprisings will be more stronger and much more deadly. Its like Keynesian economics.

they hate us because we are there, taking their oil and telling them what to do. Another main reason is economy.. when you have more than 20% unemployment, you expect people to just be quiet and not do anything? And this will somewhat mix with Islam to an extent, and it will be a bit problematic.

There are a few ways of supporting Isreal and securing its existence, but getting in Middle East, and policing the whole region isn’t one of them, and that’s what we have been doing. This is the reason Iran still exists. Once we are gone from that region, then no one will buy their IED’s or support their existence. Look at the leaked documents – Everyone in Middle East hates Iran and this isn’t something we didn’t know before..

There is a simple solution grandpa. build a cage and hide your gold with all your family in there. Because, next year it’s all muslim’s rule. And I have heard the gay muslims all read Koran while they violate you under the new gay-sharia law. Hurry.

GOP can CRUSH the Democrats on ENERGY! – Especially if the Mid-East is in flux.

From every angle:

- Phony Science
- Green Jobs YEARS Away
- hurts the poor the most
- Hypocrisy – we don’t drill, but we buy from Hugo, who has a different commitment to “green”
- Taking $$$ away from Brutal Theocracies

There’s SO much upside to the GOP going after the Dems & their Environmentalist PuppetMasters…I’ll bet the public is with the GOP position on this 80%!

Actually, Mormons aren’t Christians. In Christianity a belief in God and Jesus as his son and as savior is all that is needed to go to heaven. For Mormons you need to be baptized, (for males) go on a mission, get married in a temple and path tithing throughout your life.

Nice post.
I agree with just about all you said; but on a whole other level, do we have some moral obligation to go beyond the Pragmatic in seeking the better good – that is bringing Freedom (not just democracy!) to a suppressed people?

I’d say we do, but have been doing it in totally ineffective ways.

What’s wrong with Beck’s community? Why does it need to be restored and if it’s in such bad shape, why doesn’t he move somewhere else? Limbaugh does his show from Florida and Palin is usually in Alaska, if Connecticut is such a cesspool, perhaps he should go to Spokane.

True, there is so less news in fox news, nobody else quotes them.

Who cares about what Chicken Little Beck thinks! He’s a rodeo clown. His opinions don’t matter. I don’t think Obama is going to be listening to this snake oil salesman on world affairs anytime soon.
The point of the article is Chicken Little Beck said he was going to come up with ‘solutions’ and now he’s reacting to Mediaite (they say they’re not taking credit for it, but we know this is the reason) calling him out on it and he’s reacting.
What he says is irrelevant in so many ways. What’s relevant is the fact that people believe him and defend him and come here to express it. The real story is about these people. The true believers. These people are entertainment!

Let the stupidity began Chicken Little Beck followers!

Actually Mormons are Christians. They have Jesus Christ at the center of the church, officially named The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. If they’re not your cup o’ Christian, that’s fine, but it’s their right to define themselves how they wish.

If you want to see Beck debate someone, you can go back to clips from his HLN show. I remember he had Sharpton on once.

You guys aren’t taking credit for the fact that yesterday you asked for solutions and today he gave em? I would totally take credit for that.

What’s really hilarious is a couple days after making a national laughingstock of himself with that domino theory whereby New Zealand goes to the Chinese, & the Russians get the Netherlands, he brings on to his show today three dudes who each dutifully make it point to say that, “no, no, Glenn, you were 100% correct.” Who are these face-lickers, you ask?

Well, one is Joel Rosenberg, Bible prophecy magnate, who kept saying that the only solution to the problems in the Middle East is, get this, Jesus Christ. Yeah, the forced conversion of a billion Muslims to Christianity, that would certainly turn down the heat in the area. Hell, that’d probably scare the shit out the Israelis. Whackadoodle number two was Damon Vickers, Alex Jones’s buddy, and author of “The Day after the Dollar Collapses.” Indeed, both Vickers and Rosenberg have sold trainloads of their books to the Moron Nation. (The third guest I didn’t know, but he actually seemed quite sane; in fact, he was super-sane, comparatively.)

So, to combat the charge that he’s peddling in conspiracy theories, what does the Professor think it wise to do? Trot out other conspiracy theorists. I thought I was being sucked into the TV, such was the lunatic singularity. I think it was the sanity of the third guy, who was Muslim, that saved me.

I never though I’d hear the day where Christians compare a religion about magical pants to their own.

7Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
8But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
9As we said before, so say I now again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
10For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.

Israel’s leaders will figure it out. Its their country, its their government. And with Diplomacy, I am sure we might be able to contribute, for example, how we got Egypt to recognize Israel under Sadat, and The Oslo Peace accords.

But the point I am getting to is, If we are allied to Israel, then why are we going around the whole middle east and messing things up? I mean its our job to help Israel to defend itself, being its allies, but does that give us authority to support dictators in countries around middle east?

What the Tea Party and GOP doesn’t get is that the entire world isn’t like us. Other countries aren’t waiting to do new energy projects, they are doing them now. China just created a train as fast as an airplane. We can’t sit around using up the rest of the oil, it’s just going to get higher and higher in price, until no one can afford it.

We have to prepare for the future, 20-30 years from now we wont have oil and if we don’t prepare, that’s the end of the good ol’ USA. That’s what Obama is trying to do, but most people are disagreeing just because they hear it costs money. High speed rail systems all over the US will create millions of jobs… but it will also cost money.

Why would anyone applaud your lack of civility? Get a clue. If you’re really as old as your screenname implies, you’ve still got some maturing to do.

Who applauds taking the “bitter” path? Heard of redemption and forgiveness? Guess not.

So lets see what we’ve got so far:

Beck offers some possible solutions to a problem.

I can’t say I’m surprised. For the angry left, reality is what they’ve decided it is. They don’t need evidence, research, or actual content… just some anger and a handful of insults. And yet, they still expect to be taken seriously.

I remember a routine from comedian Ron White. He talks about how he was on the debate team in school… and when it was his turn, he turned to his opponant and said, “Yeah? Well f*ck you!” And thought he had won.

The angry left around these parts are essentially the same. What Beck says doesn’t matter… they don’t know, and they don’t care. They hate Beck because he disagrees (they assume) with them. Insults and attacks… that’s their “reasoned response.”

Oh well. If it’s all you’ve got, it’s the best you can do.

We prefer the “mildly perturbed” left, thank you very much.

Actually, Mormons aren’t Christians. In Christianity a belief in God and Jesus as his son and as savior is all that is needed to go to heaven. For Mormons you need to be baptized, (for males) go on a mission, get married in a temple and path tithing throughout your life.

I guess when Glenn says Jesus is his savior He believes Jesus is the son of God and because he is mormon it doesn’t count and he’s not a christian. Who are we to judge? Tithing is a path in every church I have ever heard about. 10% money and if you don’t have money how about 10% of your time. You don’t convinve me that mormons aren’t christians.

But the point I am getting to is, If we are allied to Israel, then why are we going around the whole middle east and messing things up? I mean its our job to help Israel to defend itself, being its allies, but does that give us authority to support dictators in countries around middle east?

No we shouldn’t support dictators. But should threats from Iran, Syria, et. al. be taken at face value or ignored and reacted to after the fact?

It seems the ME has either dictators or Islamic Theocracies. Neither form of government provides its citizens with much freedom or vibrant economies.

Given the only two choices I vote to ally ourselves with those who support our interests the most.

threats from Iran, definately face value. Iran is led by a dumb leader and almost all the people disagree with him. As i said before, if it weren’t for anti American sentiments there, they would have had a different gov already.. without a question. Rest of the country exist because of anti American sentiments. Lets stop imperialising and the people in those regions will liberate themselves from Islamic theocracy.

Take Turkey for example, they had Emporers and Theocrats, they just removed them after World War 2 and brought a democracy. People around the world have right to self government, and when their government does things against their will, people do react, maybe not in the most civil way, but it certainly works most of the time.

True. Mormons also heed The Book of Mormon and another book (Standards and Practices, I believe)

Actually I think it’s the Doctrine and Covenants,

J Smith taught that God’s instruction to mankind was not meant to end with one compilation of writings and there would be ongoing inspiration resulting in sacred writings. The Book of Mormon was supposedly from ancient America and the D&C was and is contemporary scripture starting from the 1830s.

It’s an interesting premise since there’s nothing other than tradition stating that divine inspiration resulting in other sacred writings would ever cease.

If they’re not your cup o’ Christian, that’s fine, but it’s their right to define themselves how they wish. If you want to see Beck debate someone, you can go back to clips from his HLN show. I remember he had Sharpton on once.

Glenn even went so far as to walk the walk. He joined Sharpton in one of his marches. Sharpton said “I can’t believe you showed up” to Glenn. It should be clear as to why Glenn did show up.

He goes on tv to warn how all of world is going fall following Egypt and tells you how the countries are going to blow up. And when people criticize him for it, he comes with a solution.

According to them, your version is is the perverted one. What a quandary.

Now just hold on a second, there, sensitive. Have you watched Beck’s TV show, or worse yet, listened to him on the radio? Insults and attacks are his stock-in-trade. Only he (along with his sidekicks) has a tendency, when fire’s returned–and it’s never face-to-face, due to his refusal to debate anyone who doesn’t agree with him–to squeal like Mothra when hit by Godzilla’s death ray. And that’s no exaggeration. Last week, they were talking on the radio about Chris Matthews’ calling Michelle Bachmann a “bubble-head” (note: they’ve spoken in far worse terms about Nancy Pelosi), and Beck’s producer, Stu, was speaking in such a high register, I figured he’d had his testicles removed. I sent flowers and a card.

As for knowing and caring what Beck says, Media Matters has an entire wing of their bandwidth dedicated to the knucklehead. Mostly just quotes, using his own words (a technique Beck acts like he invented), and every now and then a greatest hits with some commentary. We know what Beck says, that’s why we call him crazy. Like this week, his theory is that the Chinese, the Russians and the Caliphate are going to divide up the Eastern Hemisphere, and then they’re going to turn on us. His proof? A 2002 protest with ANSWER (an organization representing less people than went to my high school), and a few militant, and rather excitable Muslims up on the dais. That’s the vanguard of this tri-partite division of the world, according to Beck, and it’s really all I, and presumably most sane people, need to hear.

The problem you that in Moron Nation have, ImNotBlue, is that the rest of us *do* know what Beck has said, only too well.

Oops, that last line should read: “The problem that you in Moron Nation have….” So, do I need a passport to get into Moron Nation…

Dsiscokid said:

I guess it depends on how much dogma and doctrine has to vary before someone is declared a non Christian , and who gets to make that call. A rigid dogma like the Church of Christ thinks no other so called Christian denomination is going to heaven because they’ve failed to live up to the gospel.

If worshiping Jesus as the divine son of God qualifies, then Mormons are Christian. Personally I think it would have to be on a more individual and internal basis and denominations and dogma don’t matter at all.

First off, the elevation of Olbermann over the past 8 years renders the, “he doesn’t debate” argument void. Apparently the left accepted that with open arms… so complaining now is just BS.

Secondly, if you’re trusting MM to give you an honest portrayal of anything, you’re sadly mistaken. They’re an advocacy group, who presents things in such a way as to distort the message. They are “ends justify the means,” folks… so lies (and lies of omission) are fine.

But more importantly, arguing Beck’s theories is fine and important. That’s not what we’re talking about. Read the previous pages, and show me who made their comments based on the clip posted. It’s all blanket, “Beck sucks,” comments by angry leftwing parrots who are only capable of repeating their attacks over and over again. Find me a comment of substance… then we can talk,

Hey, that reminds me of Obama adviser Rev. Jim Wallis bearing false witness against thine brother Glenn. You’d think someone such as Wallis would know scripture and especially the teachings of jesus. Or perhaps, Wallis is one of those we were warned of here: “many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.” You can identify them by looking for “social justice”. Which is why the left went bonkers when starting talking about social justice.

http://www.redstate.com/momoseven/2010/03/22/the-pharisees-bear-false-witness-a-commentary-on-social-justice-4/

The flak is heaviest when one is over the target. And Glenn Beck has been surgical in his strikes on the left.

Yes, so Beck gave solutions. We’ll leave it up to you to debate whether or not they were useful. We will say, however, that the cape at the beginning was brilliant, even if he never explained why he chose to open his show with staff and cape. But if any of Beck’s critics fall into the clear trap of reporting on the goofy costume in the first few minutes of the show and not the substance in the last few minutes, you can be sure that Beck will be ready to pounce.

Mr. Bershad, I’m so confused. You criticize Beck heavily for not giving any solutions or “leading” yesterday. Today Beck attempts to give solutions, which you refuse to comment on, dedicating just one sentence of this article to any of the substance of the clip you’ve posted. Why is it that you can opine in your column that Beck should be giving solutions, then decide not to offer any opinion on his response to you (other than to try to belittle him by focusing on his outfit)? Offering up the last sentence above doesn’t keep people from realizing you yourself have “fallen into the trap” of which you speak. It just makes it painfully obvious that you yourself are setting a trap for your readers to focus on these things and ignore substance.

If you want people to take you seriously, you need to live up to the claims you make to journalistic integrity. You need to stop engaging in criticism while avoiding intelligent debate. You need to stop attempting to belittle people you disagree with by focusing on the absurd and unimportant and start substantively addressing the things they say. You need to stop obfuscating and playing to the liberal lowest common denominator and start actually reporting (or editorializing/debating).

Holy shit, this guy is a lunatic.

Jimmy Carter, is that you?

“Unless profound changes are made to lower oil consumption, we now believe that early in the 1980s the world will be demanding more oil that it can produce … Each new inventory of world oil reserves has been more disturbing than the last. World oil production can probably keep going up for another six or eight years. But some time in the 1980s it can’t go up much more. Demand will overtake production. We have no choice about that.” – President Carter

Christians appended the Jewish holy book, Islam and the Mormons did the same to Christianity. Hell, gospels were removed from the bible by the Catholic church. Historical fact is murky at best where religion is concerned. If you really want to be a christian purist, you should probably stop the New testament after the Gospels and throw all the books after them out, since Christ isn’t in those books. Even then, you’re ignoring the fact that each of the gospels is an account given by a particular apostle (I won’t even bother to debate the historical validity of that), and each one has an obvious ideological bent that differs from the others. To say that you acknowledge innumerable denominations of Christianity but draw the line at Mormonism may be a bit hypocritical.

Thankfully the Bible settles the issue, if we simply let the Bible say what the Bible says about the Bible.
The church in Acts Chapter 2:42 did this-
And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.

#1- They continued in the apostles’ doctrine (read the whole chapter. BTW- They were filled with the Holy Ghost (cross-reference with 1 Cor. 2:14) and fellowship. Denominational differences within Christianity are one thing, but the essensial doctrines of Biblical Christianity (i.e.- The Deity of Jesus, the Trinity, the virgin birth, The death, burial, and bodily resurrection, simple faith in Christ for salvation alone (see Acts 16:31, Ephesians 2:8, and 2 Corinthians 11:3 for some examples) are immutable and that is what separates Biblical Christianity from the cults. God warns us in His Word of private interpretations (2 Peter 1:20,21)

It must be very convenient to be able to choose to pretend a column isn’t giving an opinion because it’s not in the opinion section of the website.

Once again, this clown boy, in his own feeble mind, assumes he is somebody who is presenting some revolutionary “solution” to the problem he doesn’t even understand.

Muslim Brotherhood are nothing like what these conspiracy, uninformed goons describe them to be. They don’t even know the basic political make up of today’s Egypt, yet they found it upon themselves to parade these reactionary people to expound on intricacies of some country they just heard about a week ago!!!

It’s so sad that people allow someone like this, and many like him, to define the narrative that has little resemblance to reality and played like a wind up toy. Get a life people.

If you want people to take you seriously, you need to live up to the claims you make to journalistic integrity. You need to stop engaging in criticism while avoiding intelligent debate. You need to stop attempting to belittle people you disagree with by focusing on the absurd and unimportant and start substantively addressing the things they say. You need to stop obfuscating and playing to the liberal lowest common denominator and start actually reporting (or editorializing/debating).

I was referring to the fact that many criticize him by saying that he attacks, gives false info, etc. and tries to wave it all off by saying “I’m just a guy. I’m not a reporter. If I get things wrong, you can’t hold me accountable for it, since I’m just opinion TV.”

He is and will probably always be an opinion guy. His tagline has been “The fusion of entertainment and enlightenment” for many years. He is not a journalist, and he doesn’t claim to be. He doesn’t pretend to be a “news” guy. He’s built The Blaze to do news. He does opinion, and probably always will.

I still think he needs to drop a lot more of the comedy, props and voice imitations that he does. I much prefer the serious way that he approached things on his HLN show.

He is who he is, and probably always will be. And quite often, he’s hilarious, and there is a place for that. That’s the reason I started listening to him 8 years or so ago. His current place in the overall conversation was unimaginable back then. His is a very American story.

Thankfully the Bible settles the issue, if we simply let the Bible say what the Bible says about the Bible.
The church in Acts Chapter 2:42 did this-
And they continued stedfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.

#1- They continued in the apostles’ doctrine (read the whole chapter. BTW- They were filled with the Holy Ghost (cross-reference with 1 Cor. 2:14) and fellowship. Denominational differences within Christianity are one thing, but the essensial doctrines of Biblical Christianity (i.e.- The Deity of Jesus, the Trinity, the virgin birth, The death, burial, and bodily resurrection, simple faith in Christ for salvation alone (see Acts 16:31, Ephesians 2:8, and 2 Corinthians 11:3 for some examples) are immutable and that is what separates Biblical Christianity from the cults. God warns us in His Word of private interpretations (2 Peter 1:20,21)

is that after the part where it talks about shellfish being an abomination?

Actually, didn’t end that way at all. It was mid-way through the interview as ACORN’s spokesman was using the tried and true honorable debating technique of talking over the host in a rambling filibuster. And neither was Beck’s call for his mic to be cut off (for a sum total of 15 seconds, during which the guest can still be heard to talk) shouted, for that matter.

You say delusional, I say he’s the scariest guest that Beck has ever had on his show. That definitely wasn’t where Beck thought he was going when he was talking about the spiritual solution.

Whenever the name Glenn Beck comes up on this website, the crazies really come out in numbers. I’m beginning to think that Beck is the greatest gift to progressive causes we’ll ever have. He’s even better than Sarah Palin. To look at all the thumbs up and the semi literate comments indicates that we have huge educational problems in our country. How can anyone listen to him as he is clearly a very sick and confused dude on a wild American power trip. The more he bloviates the more he downgrades and makes irrelevant all rightwing/conservative principles and causes. And he doesn’t do much to help the cause of Christianity or Mormonism. Did someone in Beck’s audience actually say that evangelical Christianity was the answer to evangelical Islam! Did Beck say anything to the contrary? Asides from the 2-3 million people who hang onto every word from the master’s lips, the vast majority of people in this country don’t give a rat’s ass what this character has to say. If you haven’t noticed, Beck’s audience has peaked and he is beginning to stumble. I predict he will take a long vacation in the not so distant future. I’m sure there will be another Beck and you will fall for this one as well. It’s the yin/yang effect – there will always be people who have to go against the grain. Whether you want to accept it or not, Obama is doing a pretty good job considering what he has to deal with, including the resistance from the irrational right.

I don’t have any problem with him being an opinion guy as opposed to a journalist. As long as he understands that he still has intellectual responsibilities. A lot of his predictions have come to pass and he hit a chord with many Americans because it was clear that he was earnest, or at least it was easy to look earnest when his contemporaries are Rush, O’Reilly and Hannity. I think he’s begun to slip recently because he’s believing his own hype a little too much. I’ve been to the Blaze, and it’s hardly a bastion of impartiality. It reads kind of like it’s run by right-wing Tommy Christophers, and is clearly opinion masquerading as news. Just because everyone else is doing it doesn’t mean he should have followed suit.

He also needs to start bringing guests back on his show regularly and not be afraid to mix it up a bit. If he followed the Kelly’s Court example and moderated panelists on different sides I think that would be far more interested than taking the O’Reilly overpower them and grandstand approach. He could really benefit from taking more time for consideration and deliberation of different viewpoints, as well as asking probing questions to nail down what others are really saying. At least it would keep things fresh. Just imagine if he did 5 or 10 mins every day with Shep Smith or someone else with a no-nonsense approach instead of whole episodes devoted to Vince Flynn. Right now, he’s getting stale. I think that a more intellectual approach to presenting his opinions would benefit him much more and make it harder for his detractors to bury his points under his outfits.

It reads kind of like it’s run by right-wing Tommy Christophers, and is clearly opinion masquerading as news.

Dude, I have all sorts of respect for you, bu this in an egregious insult that cannot stand unchallenged. The Blaze has a large variety of content, some opinionated, some straight fact. Tommy is an obvious and pathetic hack and anyone with firing synapses can’t miss it. Even if you consider the Blaze all right-wing lies, it cannot be compared to Tommy “Somebody actually pays this hack?” Christopher.

They need to pull Mr McCarthy(Beck) off the air. What a nutcase!

Pablo said:

From google search of “the blaze”: “The Blaze is a news, information and opinion site brought to you by Glenn Beck and a dedicated team of writers, journalists & video producers.”

Videos of people in their own words is not opinion. Even though NBC, CBS, ABC CNN, MSNBC don’t consider these revolutionaries news (wonder why?), they most certainly are news. Now, the anaylsis of those videos can be opinion, and you can disagree with that. Most of their (the revolutionaries) rhetoric seems pretty clear though, and those who don’t want it to mean what it likely means, will make it mean something different.

I think my issue is with the slant that all the stories have. I don’t want to see another right or left wing site. I want to see one that is as eager to highlight stupid righties or honorable lefties as attack the other side, whether or not it’s subtle. More than anything, I’d like to see intelligent discourse. The site doesn’t serve Beck or his brand as much as he might like.

Ya, but did it hit you that maybe they are protesting for more freedom and the American Left has nothing to do with it?

You’re really trying to confuse multiple issues, aren’t you?

The people protesting for more freedoms, good for them! The people who want to use the chaos to institute a religious theocracy (as we have seen in other countries in that region) are a threat to the entire world. If you don’t believe that we should be concerned that these revolutions could become (whether or not they started that way) could be the beginning of something bad, and therefore require some actual thought and information before we start blindly supporting groups, then you don’t understand history at all. What is wrong with a little caution?

The Dweller Ysul said:
And that makes them different from Beck, how? Look, for the most part, with regard to Rush, Beck, Hannity, Media Matters just posts clips, day after day, documenting the madness with scant comment. You seem to want to have the discussion of Beck undertaken on a serious plane (as in taking him serious) without our being able to make reference to the one resource that does take him seriously, relentlessly. I guess I should ask you to demonstrate how Media Matters has been dishonest about Beck. (And you know, I’m sure they have on occasion, but that’s for you to prove.)

How is MM different from Beck? You tell me… you reference MM, so you must put some faith in them. Why would you put your faith in a group which is (according to you) the same as the person you’re attacking?

But honestly, I don’t want to get into a discussion about MM… it’s far too off topic. We can both do the same Google-work to find quotes, out-of-context videos, and such that show MM’s making a story out of nothing. But what’s the point?

My point remains that the vast majority of angry left-wingers around here hate Beck, not so much for what he says, but for what they THINK he’s said. They don’t listen to him, they don’t watch him, and when presented with a new story (like this) they just continue with their juvenile name calling. They’re really angry… but not entirely educated as to why.

Look at my prior comment. I addressed, substantively, the fact that Beck was trying counter claims that he’s a conspiracy theorist by having a couple of conspiracy theorists on his TV show with him tonight. You can’t hold a little snark against a guy, can you?

Really? Where did you say that? And how does that answer my question… at all?

And you can be as snarky as you want… I can’t stop you. But equally, I don’t have to take you seriously, and am free to recognize that those who rely on insults and personal attacks probably don’t know what they’re talking about in the first place.

Definately doesn’t work..

Look at Africa, A lot of problems caused there lead all the way back to its colonization. Africa was divided based on region and without any consideration on the natives etc.. At this point we can’t really do much about it, and we just have to let them slowly assimilate and we have a role in intervening in Africa to demote violence.

But when it comes to the whole Arabic region, at this point, they have almost assimilated however, I mean we don’t really have tribes in Saudi Arabia anymore and its just one country.

When it comes to Middle East, Islam has pretty much superseded the need for tribes in that area. All the extremists in that area talk about creating an Islamic Caliphate. But these extremists wouldn’t have been strong in the first place if we didn’t arm them during Soviet invasion of Afganisthan. This is the cost of intervention.

That’s funny, because I’d read in passing the Muslim Brotherhood of Egypt (sans quotes) was founded as a reactionary Islamist organization that spawned revolts, assassins and terrorists in addition to their “good works” (quotation marks) long before the last two weeks, but perhaps that’s because I’d already studied the region. Unlike those of the left, perhaps, who only heard about the organization last weak in mitigating terms from their echo-chamber. Then, as usual, assuming the right was as intellectually lazy as themselves, and to stroke their own egos over their presumed new-found intellectual superiority, hypocritically accused them of never having heard of the Muslim Brotherhood before Beck or Hanity let those two words slip.

The left’s Ignorance is showing once again. It’s as obvious as it is sad.

19And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth.
20Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word;
21That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.

No, I’m not under the Law as an O.T. Jew was to be according to Leviticus. The N.T. still condemns sodomy (Romans 1:26-28 and 1 Corinthians 6:9). God destroyed cities (Sodom and Gommorrah) for their wickedness (Gen. 13:13). BTW- That was before the Law and Moses.

9Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
10Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
11And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

Paul was writing to those in the Church who thought you could be saved and still live in your past sinful lifestyle, i.e. – “And such WERE some of you.”

BECK: “In case you haven’t been frightened yet, you will be. You will be.”

There may be lots of reasons why Beck is still working at Fox, and none of them have anything to do with journalistic integrity. Beck is the cornerstone of the Murdoch propaganda and fear-mongering machine. Beck here claims that he’s the only one telling the “truth,” but that is laughable on all levels. Idiotic sheep my believe his nonsense, but no one, inside or outside of Glenn Beck’s circle of jerks believe his utter nonsense.

Only baboons believe this buffoon, and that’s being civil. I could have called them sheeple or the mammals that follow the pied piper.

It’s really hilarious hearing right-wing people say the left is lying XD

Open your eyes idiots, you’re on the wrong side of history/morality.

SNOWSPOT:

What history/morality are you talking about?

Okay, where is “the substance in the last few minutes”?

How come NO ONE has called Mediaite here for not knowing that Beck’s costume is YODA, as in Star Wars? Beck even uttered the famous line from Empire Strikes Back: “You will be, you will be”. That’s what Yoda said to Luke when Luke said he wasn’t afraid to face the Emperor (aka Chancellor Palpatine – leader of the Empire).

Did Hizbullah say they wanted to take Lebanon over at their inception? Or did that happen a bit more progressively?

Hezbullah’s inception solely was a result of Israel’s occupation of southern Lebanon, albeit to combat PLO, and the ensuing civil war afterward. They were “left” there as a buffering forces against Israel by “Syria.” The politicization of its revolutionary beginning was just a natural course to its raison ďētre. Therefore, their introduction into the political, and militaristic, spectrum of Lebanon was not through a democratic process. All these elements are entirely different from what Muslim Brotherhood of Egypt is facing today.

You have fabricated a false dichotomy that the choice is either between a dictator or Al Quaida–get a clue. MB doesn’t comprise a voting block of more than 15% to 20% of over all make up of Egypt. If their religious goals are so radical, then one must look no further than the Christian evangelists who make up of 70 million Americans. We must all bemoan because they seek to see this nation as a “Christian” one, then claim “democracy” could never persists for their religious fervent–reality tells us something else. Try again.

Wait a minute, I thought it was your master puppeteer, Glenn Beck, who clamored a day ago about unification of “Communists” and “Muslims” in fight against America (his not anyone else’s). So I suppose those Lefties (sorry, I’m an independent) must have known about MB for many decades as they are practically a cooperative force fused from the heap *roll eyes*

But then again, Beck’s averment is a strange one due to the fact of his un-American proclivity to maintain the status quote and keeping a dictator in power. You forgot to march in sync soldier. Watching cable news and listening to the polluted airwaves of AM radio do not constitute one’s erudition. Perhaps you should study a region of your brain that has caused your intellectual torpor.

I have? Without even mentioning either a new dictator or al-Qaeda? Where? Facts! Get some. Bullshit. Lose it.

My problem with the Egyptian pro-democracy folks is that they have no plan and no leadership. They need both and they need to find them soon. They have a historic chance here, but chaos is not an answer.

MB doesn’t comprise a voting block of more than 15% to 20% of over all make up of Egypt.

And, once upon a time, Hizbullah wasn’t more than 15 to 20% of Lebanese. Now they’re running the place.

We must all bemoan because they seek to see this nation as a “Christian” one, then claim “democracy” could never persists for their religious fervent–reality tells us something else. Try again.

Blah, blah, blah, blah. America ain’t Egypt. America does not have a Christian Fundamentalist Party with 20% support. In fact, America does not have a Christian Fundamentalist party at all. It only has Christian fundamentalists who want a voice in our democratic process. Ta da! Try again.

Oh, and I notice you didn’t address where you stepped on a rake over what the MB is about, nor did you tell us where you got that false and foolish idea you were explaining to we deluded rubes. Why is that?

It seems to have escaped you that there might be a distinct between the ignorant lay liberals and casual contributors to various blogs, to whom my comments were mostly directed, and the politically adept professional organizers that are the subject of conjecture regarding involvement in the ongoing revolution, both of which fall under the general auspices of the ‘left.’

And it also seems to have escaped you that that to which I responded, and that to which your response was concerned, was to the Muslim Brotherhood and it’s proven nature. So to bring up now the connection to the radical left is an obvious red herring. Even so, It would seem to have escaped you that any such coordination between the MB and radical leftist elements need not have been decades in the making but might possibly be of relatively recent genesis.

So many things having escaped you, it’s not hard to understand how you could fail to grasp the concept of two forces, of divergent and competing ideologies, temporarily aligning themselves to overcome a shared, substantial obstacle. Considering this, you have therefore probably never once heard of American support of the mujaheddin. Such, if true, would indeed be worthy of the rolling of eyes.

Eshvish said:

Pablo said:

The really short answer for that is that America supports Israel. It’s far more complicated than that, but that’s a fact.

The only people who do not readily grasp that Glenn Beck is an ignorant, bald faced liar are his loyal fans who are too biased to comprehend when Beck lies and don’t want face up to the truth. Glenn Beck lies about Van Jones, about Obama, about progressives and the Progressive Era and even about telling the truth even! The latter makes Glenn Beck a hypocrite, not just that one time though, but over and over again, Beck demonstrates that he’s an amoral, blatant hypocrite! Who follows Glenn Beck? “Christians” who have lost their way.

Beck took one college course on the history of religion and dropped out. He has spent his entire life working hard and preparing to be a huge radio star, not studying political theory, world politics or political science. Beck is not much more than an amazing performance artist and an extremely convincing demagogue with ideas that Republican, President Eisenhower considered “stupid” in his days as President. Glenn Beck demonstrates repeatedly that he has virtually no understanding of political language or ideas or Islam or Egypt. Beck is a yellow propagandist who comes across as sincerely interested in the country but his motivations, according to Beck’s biographer, Alex Zaitchik, “are, and have always been, money and fame. If Beck has a true religion, it’s not Patriotism. It’s not Mormonism. It’s cross-platform self-marketing.”

Beck is really good at selling snake oil, and he’s shown repeatedly in the past that he loves using props to do so. How takes this clown seriously? A small percentage of reactionary, ignorant Americans so blinded by their love for him that they cannot see or hear that Beck lies routinely and worse, demonstrates hypocrisy routinely enough to readily grasp that he really has no principles aside from, of course, that the rich should dominate society and the gov’t should get out of the way to allow that to happen no matter what the cost to safety or security.

Beck is a backward looking know-nothing for the ignorant reactionaries. Luckily, we surround them.

Explanation of the cape and staff.
Beck actually got in two characters. First, he was Moses in Egypt. Isn’t that obvious?
But then he turned into Yoda warning Luke that he would be frightened in that cave up ahead.

I have to say that this was Beck at his best (a very, very rare thing).

Pablo said:

Isn’t it the American evangelical Christian right that believes that Israel must be crushed, as part of the last days scenario playing out?

Beck pisses off the left. For that I am happy. Anything else is just entertainment. Frankly I can’t watch the man but as long as the left hates the guy it’s all good.

Dave Richards says:
“Beck pisses off the left. For that I am happy. Anything else is just entertainment”

If everyone understood Beck as a mere entertainer, including Murdoch, then Beck would be no more notable than any other actor. The problem isn’t that Beck is a charlatan, the problem is that others follow him as if he knows what he’s talking about. The problem with Beck is NOT his reactionary nonsense that dismays more than it pisses off; it is that he lies about what he conveys. The problem with Beck is not his principles; the issue that his followers can’t seem to grasp is that he doesn’t have any principles that he doesn’t turn around and verbally violate.

The problem with your shallow analysis, Dave, is that “anything else” in NOT “just entertainment.” Fox replicates the false memes that Beck formulates. His idiocy, because of the other propagandists at Fox, gets repeated there over and over until Beck’s idiotic ideas make it into the national discussion. In other words, Beck’s poison’s what needs to be a serious and intelligent discussion and understanding of what is happening in Egypt.

In the whole scheme of things Becks influence is negligible. Those who follow him are also negligible. Why anyone from the left waste’s their time talking about him is beyond me.

The left can’t quit Glenn Beck. He keeps exposing them for whom they are.

Another example of where Glenn Beck was right: http://biggovernment.com/prahe/2010/06/27/walter-lippmann-on-progressivism/

“Beck is not simply an entertainer. He and his audience love American history. They are hungry for new ways to interpret current events. And Beck is creating, in Amity Shlaes’s words, “a competing canon” of texts and authorities. This competing canon is not content to assault contemporary liberalism, but rather deconstructs the very foundations of the New Deal and the Progressive Era. ”

On the Progressive Cancer in America: “When he refers to progressivism, Beck is not only highlighting the liberals’ latest name for liberalism. He is referring to the ideas of John Dewey, Herbert Croly, and Walter Lippmann. According to Beck (and many others), these early 20th-century thinkers believed that there is no such thing as natural right. The Constitution, in their view, was not equipped to deal with the complexities of modern society. ”

Why Media Matters hearts Glenn Beck: http://bigjournalism.com/jdunetz/2011/02/06/a-case-study-how-media-matters-invents-bigotry-charges-to-protect-soros/

“See my conundrum? I can understand how George Soros, Media Matters and the rest of the progressive army would exploit anti-Semitic bigotry to discredit Glenn Beck and protect George Soros; its just their desperate attempt to avoid answering the fact laid out by the Fox host, and a warning to others, not to follow in his footsteps. That is simply how the progressive Sugar-Daddy and his smear machine operates. But I can’t come up with an explanation as to why Eric Boehlert would ignore part of the story or mislead his readers, this guy is a professional , not simply some hack writer of progressive propaganda.”

Glenn Beck is beating them. Hence the perpetual hate and attacks.

Dave Richards says:

Uhhh, maybe the same reason that people on the right are starting to call out Beck’s irresponsible fear-mongering. Bill Kristol recently said, “But hysteria is not a sign of health. When Glenn Beck rants about the caliphate taking over the Middle East from Morocco to the Philippines, and lists (invents?) the connections between caliphate-promoters and the American left, he brings to mind no one so much as Robert Welch and the John Birch Society. He’s marginalizing himself, just as his predecessors did back in the early 1960s.”

Beck is a deceitful, hypocritical charlatan. So long as he is on Fox and taken seriously be anyone, there is a need to expose him for what he is. Beck’s irresponsible rhetoric is to political discourse as the oil leak in the Gulf was to the ocean: a toxic mess and it’s well neigh impossible to plug it.

Pablo said:

Who follows and believes in Glenn Beck, the Yoda? in this act of his world famous show? Millions of gullible and easily manipulated sheep. Lincoln was right: you can fool some of the people all of the time. Glenn Beck shows the world how it’s done: http://www.sharethisurlaboutglennbeck.com/2011/02/why-glenn-beck-isnt-crazy-and-millions.html

The experts are speaking out: “Beck is ignorant about India and ignorant about the rest of the world.” Hey, who needs knowledge when your audience is so easily manipulated?
http://www.cnn.com/video/?/video/politics/2011/02/03/jk.dunne.kagan.cnn

It’s so weird: when my wife listens to Beck, she gets “an overwhelming feeling of evil” too. I asked her why, and she said that she could tell that he is a liar by HOW he speaks.

I’m more empirical and philosophically trained. Beck lies and we prove this day after day. I have a long list of posts detailing Beck’s false claims, and I don’t post nearly all the ones I know about. I have a large unused file detailing many of Beck’s lies.

Beck is on the wrong side of history again, but — not surprising — he was on the side of democracy in the Middle East in support of Bush’s war of choice against Iraq. He hasn’t changed his mind: Glenn Beck is a hypocrite through and through. I prove this with facts and logic over and over again. And this begs the question: why does Beck has such a large following?

Yes, he’s persuasive and cunning and gifted. He’s also highly skilled at manipulating his viewers; Beck is a master manipulator. Why else would more of his followers not hear the lies I could detect before starting The Glenn Beck Review. He programs his viewers to dismiss any and all criticism of him, no matter how factual and unbiased, no matter how honest. This has led me to a recent re-evaluation of his intellect as of late. He’s still ignorant about the world, but he’s very bright, clever, gifted, persuasive and intelligent. It’s taken a while to see that, but the link about his manipulation skills forced me into rethinking just how smart he is.

It’s still all about Glenn Beck. His motivations, according to Beck’s biographer, Alex Zaitchik, “are, and have always been, money and fame. If Beck has a true religion, it’s not Patriotism. It’s not Mormonism. It’s cross-platform self-marketing.” Those who do not grasp this about him, can not hear his lies or hypocrisies, do not recognize that this uneducated, ignorant man is a charlatan and yellow propagandist, are victims more than they are supporters. They are to be pitied, not respected.
