While searching for the clip on Youtube I found this and I have to say I liked him in this one.

My rant isn't against any idealogy, it's the fact that we have become a country of people that will believe anything they hear on the media if it strikes the right emotional cord.
These guys know that and will say anything to improve their ratings.
 
I bet Acorn brought in far less for the left than the churches brought in for the right. Just sayin...


So true! Even more scary is when the Christian Right thinks they are the "correct" Religion and others are the "wrong" Religion. I never can understand how some Christians seem to be so far right when Jesus seems so liberal for his day.
 
Seems to me your comment about "this once great country" is an example of what I am talking about.
This still is a great country. There are a lot of good people doing a lot of good things. You don't see "American Terrorists" all over the world murdering people. Despite the temporary dip in our economy, there still is a lot of good going on and a lot of opportunity. People like Beck make a living by trying to portray only a very narrow, slanted and inaccurate viewpoint. Like I said, he is very good at exploiting peoples fears and prejudices. Micheal Moore does the same thing on the left. They are just two examples of people on the left and right that many have latched on to as their reality. They are not, they are just people exploiting the masses at the expense of our country as a whole.
Again, this still is a great country, no matter what anyone wants to say.

You are correct I am sorry we are still a great country But very very rapidly going down hill We are hosed by the polititians, Our Dollar is for nothing due to the debt, and 49.9% of the people have the mindset of you owe me and what can I get for free, and Im not responsible, and please tell me what to do!!

We produce little to nothing now a days, we consume like there is no tomorrow and we are 2-5 years away from loosing our AAA credit rating. We have a president and congress (yes the last Pres also sucked) that are going around the world making apologies about our "ONCE GREATNESS" and trying to create a Fair and Balanced world order!!! We are Taxing and Taxing and Taxing the Folks that provide the jobs, The Govt is mandating that you must buy something (IN AMERICA!!!!) Our banks, Our Auto industry, OUR HEALTHCARE, the Internet, and the radio waves are being or HAVE been taken over by a federal Govt that has no basis when you look into our GREAT GREAT document called the constitution! In fact or President and 1/2 of the Congress believe that the document should be living and change as needed (never mind that there is a way to make whatever changes they want but they must be above board and get the states involved) ON the COMMUNISt China new year the EMPIRE STATE BUILDING (A real symbol of AMERICA and it greatness back then) was lit up in RED because it is owned by CHINA!!!!!!

What in the hell will it take for you and others to get ticked off about this and TAKE AMERICA back to her PRIOR NO QUESTIONS ASKED GREATNESS??????????????? Not what we all want to believe we still are today???? WE can do it but it will take folks waking up and start asking questions!!! And demanding proper answers!!!
 
BTW here's definitive proof he is willing to lie to make a point.
If he lies about this what else is he twisting the truth on?

LMFAO!!! I seriously can't believe you actually posted this. This is your definitive proof? A bunch of professional leftist gossips sitting around blabbing is your proof? WOW!!! This story has been de bunked. Get with the times.

What's next? A clip from Saturday Night Live? I almost can't type cause I'm laughing so hard.

And to think I was taking you seriously. Shame on me.



Anyway, let's say for a second that Glenn Beck is a liar or whatever you think he is. Whom should I listen to? Where do you get your info from?
 
If you say so, I offered up Beck being filmed saying something on the air that in fact, wasn't true and was proven as such. Pretty plane and simple.
You in turn, have simply resorted to name calling and insults.
Why am I not surprised you are the one who is defending Beck..........
 
Beck does look pretty retarded in that clip. Whoppie and Walters served him. He had nothing to say back.

Spanked by Whoppie and Walters? I never thought that much of him before...but now???
 
everyone needs to go to his website and tell him he is a tool! Tell him he must be scare to fly since he is over reacting. There is a governing body who will take a course of action. The FAA
 
Beck is a proctologist tool, and who can blame Franken for thinking laptops are causing problems in the cockpit when two airline pilots just claimed as much. Who is he to argue with the professionals at the controls?

I thought this thread would die but.....

How has this story been "de bunked"? Becuase GB went on the air the next day and pandered to his audience (ie. You) about how he was blind sided? BS....he got caught holding his wacker in the theater with PeeWee and back peddeled.

C'mon!!!!

You know what the difference between the Radical Left and the Radical Right? The left folks knows when their guys are full is $HIT.

If you listen/watch ES, KO or AS your going to get crazy left talk.

If you listen/watch RL, AC, GB or JBG your going to get crazy right talk.

However, some folks think these [RL,AC, etc.] are core Republican values....now that is a joke. It's all about pot-shots and racking up points to these ENTERTAINERS (same for the left).

Regan is rolling in his grave at the state of the toxicity in current politics.

Why? Becuase people can't educate and think for themselves anymore! There too %ucking lazy to actually read a newspaper, pull up a HR bill online [and read it] or GOD forbid read a history book. No they watch cable news and spew the BS they hear, albeit MSNBC or FOX, and don't know jack squat about what they are talking about outside of a bulletpoints.

Do yourself, your kids and your Country a favor by turning off the TV and read something.......even if its a novel.

Seriously bro, you need to put down the anti-Beck kool aid.

If you truly are buying into some belief that Glenn Beck is a liar becasue of that rediculous interview on leftist show The View you are a complete sucker.

You want some examples of real liars? Let's start in the White House and Congress. Believe me, Glenn Beck is the least of your problems...even if he was lying.

Anyway, you never did answer my question...and I'm pretty sure I know why. But I'll give you another chance. Where do you get your news and current events from? (As if I'm going to get an honest answer)

Again, we get it. You don't like Beck. At least have legitimate reasons for it. BTW, how often do you lie? I wonder what your life would look like if played out on some big screen TV.
