Everyone on television has a bit... I don't care if it is Glenn Beck, David Letterman or that Kate with Eight person... they all have the same goal... STAYING ON TELEVISION.
Glenn Beck... his bit... an 'Every man'. He is always saying how he is not an expert... not a journalist... not a pundit... he's just a 'Regular Guy'.
That, right there is a lie. Regular guys aren't on television. Regular guys don't make millions of dollars from radio and television. Regular guys don't get paid $100,000.00 to speak a Tea Party Convention. Entertainers get that kind of money. But, he comes off to his viewers as just some guy with an opinion. An opinion that is worth a lot of fucking money.
His viewers need to question his conclusions, instead of soaking them in as if they are sermons. Question his conclusion that if 'Social Justice' ultimate leads to Fascism... his solution of moral conviction based upon Christian principles should ultimately leads us to an authoritarian Theocracy... when wild, unfounded inferrences are injected into the mix.
But... they don't. They don't question... they don't fact check... they just agree. With an entertainer... a celebrity... who gets paid to come up with these conclusions to stay on television and sell his books.
Absolutely. Beck is bat shit crazy and if you find yourself agreeing with him......you are bat shit crazy

I guess what I don't understand is, no one steps up to actually refute his claims. Yes, I realize that people who can't refute his ramblings are going to say that it's a waste of time, and he's not worth it etc. I'm not saying he's 100% right, 100% of the time, and I'm sure that things can be picked out that are incorrect. With that being said, if the vast majority of what he is saying is absolute bullshit, then why can't people come up with anything to counter him other than bashing him because he's a crier, he's dramatic, he's crazy, etc. etc. I agree, he is all of those things, but even your 66 links really do little more than just transcribe what he said along with some inane commentary (many are nothing more than embedded video), but they don't really offer a counter argument.
so you guys are saying you honestly believe 'progressives' really do hate america, the constitution, the founding fathers and are really fascists and that the push to ban trans fats had nothing to do with health but was just a way to get their fascist foot in the door towards complete control over every aspect of your life as glenn beck claims????? :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

The Daily Show: 'Glenn Beck Has Nazi Tourette's' (VIDEO)
Daily Show correspondent Lewis Black was surprised last night that Glenn Beck had criticized those who have compared Arizona's immigration law to Nazi Germany. "This is a guy," said Black, "who uses more swastika props and video of the Nuremberg rallies than The History Channel."
Black then showed clips of Beck himself comparing everything, from global warming to the Peace Corps, to Nazi Germany. "It's 'Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon,'" Black said, "except there's just one degree, and Kevin Bacon is Hitler. Can I play? Let's see. Mother Teresa had a mustache. Hitler had a mustache. Mother Teresa is Hitler!"

surprised he didn't start humming the star spangled banner, because he just loves his country so much... :roll:
he likes this country so much because he can make a butt load of money saying stupid shit. i don't understand how anyone could take him for serious.

Instead of calling him names like an immature child would, why doesn't somebody try to debunk his theories or try to prove him wrong?
Beck knows more about the history of America then most history teachers do.
he is too batshit crazy and says things that are so completely off base at such a frequent pace that the debunkers can not keep up with him. and i seriously DOUBT he knows more about history that history teachers do. what he knows about history he distorts to fit whatever it is he wants to say.

1. So he was off on Social Security by 4 years. :roll:
2. Whatever FDR allocated, it doesn't change the fact of what Obama has allocated by percentage.
3.Off by 1 president....oops.
4. Chile........o.k. whatever.

You know....it wasn't all that long ago when people were aware that the u.s government was corrupt. It seems like now that there is a democrat in office everything is okee dokee. From my point of view, I don't see much diference between Bush and Obama. We're still at war, and to top it all off, we're going to start drilling. I agree with the drilling myself, but I know alot of you don't. Where is the outrage? If it was Bush that was going to drill, there would be a riot in the streets throughout all of america. Sorry, but defining liberalism to me is..... double standard hypocrytical bullshit.

And......the part about Holdren putting sterilants in drinking water, he is on audio saying this. Just because it's so crazy that it makes it hard to believe doesn't mean it's not true.

I wish I could click on these links but there's no point with my slow dial-up. I started watching Glenn Beck about 2 months ago & I gotta say: I LOVE HIM!!!! I do feel scared for my future after watching his show, but that's because he is able to explain what is happening in our country better than any other show I watch.
I have my organic, pasture-raised chicken egg farm, I've planted an organic orchard & I'm on the cusp of buying a dairy cow or goat so when our economy completely fails, at least I'll have food.
A friend of mine is doing the same. Although I find it to be a little extreme, it's pretty cool. He's got chickens and pigs and buying cows next.
Actually we just slaughtered, plucked and gutted some of his chickens but he still has his egg chickens. We might start an organic farmers market.
i like how beck will rip on the guy writing the palin book, saying family members should be off limits, then proceeds to trash the 11 year old obama daughter....way to go beck....

Yeah it was kinda dinkish. But kinda funny also. We all know the scrutiny that the Palin family has gone under and this doesn't compare. But it was still kinda being an asshole. Especially where he questions their level of education....uncalled for.
