Glenn Beck gets heckled at a Hitchcock film, others say he didn't, he cries...

[JayVols]

Yeah ,i must have too. Is this Mao here typing this anti-american garbage and that thinks the idea of a free society is laughable, see , i can also throw out little barbs and name call.
Your point is flawed. There is a complete and udder double standard for conservatives and libs. Personally i am sick of it happening to conservatives and the libs making weak excuses to explain why. Why is he being villianized here when these "openminded" progressives are the ones at fault. Everyone knows he is open to criticism, and i am not even debating that point that he is a target or not, i am debating the falicies that he is a liar or a nutt or advocates violence. These are lies. Prove me wrong if not and i will take my medicine. I am however going to use your argument though the next time someone calls Obama a kenyan or lets do it with granny. Just take your own advice and tell granny thats comes "with the territory" of life, everything isn't pleasant and grand.
by the way my Grandmother died with Alzheimers and its a terrible disease so i am not making fun only a point , but i didn't blame then show Days of our Lives, in which she became distraught after a woman fell down into a hole and was upset that i wouldn't help the lady out as she screamed out for someone to save her.

Udder? Like teats?

still waiting for kiffin and dinky to provide actual "incendiary" Glen Beck quotes.

and yes, I know he once called Obama a racist on one of the morning shows, however, unlike LG, Beck provided a rationale for using the term.

Your guess, like most of your premeditated assessments, is wrong. Shoes, pies, and rocks are one thing. Words are another.

I'm not quite sure what it is, but something tells me you probably chuckled just a little bit when the shoe-thrower chucked his shoe at Dubya.

 

[kev20]

Beck is incendiary in that he excites his supporters. He is not incendiary by way of insighting civil unrest.

Those are two valid definitions of the word. I looked at the context of what LG was saying, and assumed he meant the version with a negative connotation. I was simply being silly with my example of Richard Simmons being incendiary.

A logical conclusion

Glenn Beck's incendiary angst dangerously close to having a body count - Glenn Beck - Salon.com

Indeed, for more than a year Beck has been portraying the progressive organization as a central player in a larger, nefarious cabal of Marxist/socialist/Nazi Obama-loving outlets determined to destroy democracy in America. Beck has routinely smeared the low-profile entity for being staffed by “thugs” and “bullies” and involved in “the nasty of the nastiest,” like indoctrinating schoolchildren and creating a “mass organization to seize power.”

This is what I found in a minute of searching - didn't even google nazi references and found one.

Show me the part of the transcript where Beck tells his "evil minions" to get liquored up and get into a shootout with the fuzz. Shedding light on an organization that he believes is perpetrating misdeeds, is not the same as ordering people to go kill their employees.

You're right. The progressives, communists, unions, Goldman Sachs and Moslems are secretly colluding to kill America.

In what has increasingly become an era defined by pandemonium, rancor, and blind ignorance, one stabilizing voice emerged from the din this year to soothe the souls of Americans everywhere, make us recognize the common decency that binds us all, and supplant the poisonous aura of fear and chaos with a simple, well-thought-out message of peace, prosperity, and reconciliation.

That man is television and syndicated radio host Glenn Beck.

Every single day of 2010, Beck's quiet words of humility and reason have touched the hearts of all Americans, healing countless wounds and elevating the level of our national discourse. Indeed, just as Martin Luther King, Jr.—to whom Beck has so aptly and correctly compared himself—once showed the nation the way forward to compassion and civility, so have Beck's stunningly eloquent broadcasts, inspiring political rallies, and bestselling books reassured every living citizen that we are all joined by the same ever-beating heart of kindness, and that gentler roads lie ahead if we could all just settle down, lower our voices, and focus on solving the actual, meaningful problems of our world together.

For in these troubled times of rising unemployment, political infighting, anger, and persecution, America needs a man who can put the issues in perspective and bring us comfort; a man who cares not about race, creed, sexual orientation, or party affiliation; a man who sees beyond petty political maneuverings, emotional exploitation, greed, and opportunism; a man who encourages all of us to disregard the ceaseless clamor of ideologues and think for ourselves; a man who sees beyond his own ego and cares only for what is good and right and just. In short, it needs a man like Glenn Lee Beck.

Thank God for Glenn Beck and all he has done. After all, what would our country be like if not for him?

 

[DynamiteMcGhee]

I watched a good bit of Glenn's show today. He said the media will "pray for the times I was only on for one hour every day." He's his own biggest fan.

 

[OrangeYankee]

Home is where the heart is, not necessarily where like minded people are. I've got a buddy that is as staunch a Conservative as you will find that lives in Boulder Colorado. He would rather die than have to live anywhere else.

Actually he's from the Pacific Northwest, I knew that fact and that's why it boggles my mind he is so desperate to live there, as he really has no claim to New York in that context. Sorry that I didn't note that. And in fact he only moved to New York when his CNN gig came.

Oh, i thought this was still a free America? i guess not. where should he move to then, i wouldn't want to offend anyone with a different viewpoint. And i thought progressives were all about tolerance and open-mindedness.

It is... and I'm not saying he doesn't have a right to live there. But if you think you are going to have a peaceful private life being that high profile, opposing pretty much the consensus of views in your area and enough nutbags in any group that will act, I just think you are delusional. I guess it just boggles my mind he cried, or is shocked about this at all.

 

[ToineMac]

While i disagree with most of Beck's positions and think he is part of the problem with the political climate in this country, he nor his family deserves to be verbally accosted while trying to enjoy time out. That being said i'm not sure if i believe it happened. Reprehensible if it did though.

I remember the first time i heard him compare himself to Dr. King. I nearly choked to death on the gum i was chewing

[PoochPunt3rdDown]

Well, good ole Glenn signed off today; his show with Fox has now run it's course.

He says he'll be even more visible now that he is in charge, but I sincerely doubt it.

 

[KiffinKiller]

Never said he promoted violence - just claimed many things to be nazi - which could very well get the populace riled up, don't you think?

 

[DinkinFlicka]

I'm not quite sure what it is, but something tells me you probably chuckled just a little bit when the shoe-thrower chucked his shoe at Dubya.

Not really... I imagined a foreign leader speaking in our country and one of our citizens throwing something at him. Was not a fan of Bush to any degree, but that was just stupid.

 

[DinkinFlicka]

so you're not willing to be specific either?

I said that his commentary is viciously divisive and shows like his are detrimental in times like these. If you want to try and argue against that instead of expecting a plethora of youtube links exhibiting his hate speech (which is not worth my time to do... just search "glenn beck hate" on google/youtube), my ears are open.

I never said the loon instigated riots in the street. He just emboldens or even creates more reasons for the two parties to hate each other.

in much the same way that I would view Keith Olbermann as "viciously divisive" I'm sure you see Beck in the same light.

The difference between us is that I would never excuse nor rationalize Olbermann and his family being harassed in a similar manner.

As far as searching google, I'm sure I could find an endless listing of snippets provided by Media Matters, Kos, Huffpo, Dem Underground, and so on. All it would prove to me as that the left, which allegedly prides itself on being tolerant and willing to debate any issue in a civil manner, is really little more than a bunch of petty, sniveling cowards.

Salon is a extremely lib website, watch msnbc and you will see their "journalist" on their often, along with media matters & huffington post. I know i watch them and read their crap often. so that article is biased garbage,

So we know you can google an article and post it without doing any research of the "journalist"s , and i use that term loosely, agenda or alliances are. But, tell me, what have you seen on Glen Becks show that was alarming or troubling to you and why? And while i am at it Milo , LG , and poochie feel free to chime in, or did Milos avatar let you know how you should feel about Glen and do your thinking for you.
Again , i watch them both almost daily.

I actually think the shoe-throw was justified. Bush I sanctions against Iraq killed 1 million +. The war Bush II brought to Iraq has resulted in 100,000 + civilian deaths. I'm surprised he didn't get more than a shoe.

oh please, stop it with the Alex Jones BS.

 

[n_huffhines]

oh please, stop it with the Alex Jones BS.

Those are UN numbers. Madeline Albright agreed to those numbers when she said "It was worth it". Go hide your head in the sand.

I don't even listen to Alex Jones.

 

[MG1968]

the UN claimed that the Bush I sanctions killed over a million Iraqis?

BS

 

[MUR73]

the UN claimed that the Bush I sanctions killed over a million Iraqis?

BS

The same UN that sat on its hands while Saddam continuly violated its sanctions and commited genocide against his own people, thus the sanction were HIS fault. The UN is a very trustworthy bunch, i would say.

 

[n_huffhines]

the UN claimed that the Bush I sanctions killed over a million Iraqis?

BS

It's pretty easy to find if you use the old google there.

It's worth noting that on 60 Minutes, Albright made no attempt to deny the figure given by Stahl--a rough rendering of the preliminary estimate in a 1995 U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) report that 567,000 Iraqi children under the age of five had died as a result of the sanctions.

That's just children.

'We Think the Price Is Worth It'

 

[MG1968]

again, that's BS. you can believe the UN and Albright all you want.
