The biggest news in cable news this week is the remarkable rise of Glenn Beck at Fox.
His Friday night special drew huge numbers and leapfrogged his show above long-time #2 Sean Hannity. What was CNN thinking when the let this guy get away?
As for the rest of the cable news pack, some were up a little, some were down a little. And Larry King continues to be CNN’s last man standing.

do you have the stats on the network news? I’d be curious to see how CBS, NBC and ABC compare
The real tell tale numbers about the networks would be what was the percentage of homes who watched the network evening newscast say, 20 or 30 years ago & compair it to today’s percentage. It would be way lower, & it’s going to keep going down.
FoxNews is pushing network numbers, but I think that has says as much about how bad the networks have become. Fox is excelent, but their compitition sucks, BIG TIME.
Beck is one talented one dude alright. If he just didn’t look like a cast off from “Big Love.”
This guy is sad and insane! He’s an ex-drug addict, college drop out and divorced…what say ye now you conservatives??!! Also heard he was gay…
Well gee, Anne, what can we say? You sure got us on that one.
What do I say? I don’t watch any of ‘em, they are all clowns. I got fed up and cancelled the cable years ago. I won’t watch that garbage.
And The One did his share of “blow” too. And Ted Kennedy killed a girl. And Byrd is a former Klansman……
I hope Anne that you were using sarcasm…
Anne,
all I can say is that you are a complete moron. Maybe someday you might “hear” that Obama has mandated that you should report for an immediate delicing and long awaited bath. I “heard” that you have terrible body odor. What say you liberal?
All I have to say for Beck and his ‘checkered past’…we all have things that have happened in our past that we are not proud of. I am divorced, so does that make me any less of a conservative? The saying, “there but by the grace of God go I” comes to mind. people can change…it happens every day. God and America is the place of second chances.
Leftists are the most assholish people in this country. If you have a flaw , they will find it. They will beat you up with it. If you make a mistake, they will rub your face in it. If you are not perfect, you wil be reminded of your imperfection.
They seek to destroy. They have no forgiveness. They are cruel , angry people.
America is going down the proverbial drain because of people like Beck, Rush, Olberman and Madcow, and the idiots who believe what they say because they are too stupid to do some research of the facts and look at all sides of the equation. They are out to get rich spewing there very seldom, if ever, fact based ridicule. We need a moderate third party, not now, but yesterday. Wake up people, neither one of these parties as a whole, cares about us. The human brain: It may not technically be a muscle, but try working it out once in a while. Not just your ears(listening to morons like Beck) and then your mouth(repeating word for word the often fiction based garbage that your ears just heard). Here is my personal, I’ll report, you decide. The one fact that I see, (minus Clinton and Gingrich years), is that both parties are more than happy to borrow our childrens future into oblivion in order to stay in power, rather than do the right thing. Freeze or cut spending, and raises taxes by a percentage point or 2.
tg,
Calling people idiots, stupid and morons is not a good way to gather support for your third party. How about stepping down off your high horse just a little before speaking.
Anne Shea,
Get a life! Regardless of what MAY have been in the past, why is it necessary to attack on a personal level? The guy has very valid points that have absolutely nothing to do with a personal profile.
I say look at the ratings Liberal. The Obama ship is sinking fast and all the liberals can do is name call… boo hoo! Talk about GAY… that’s Olberman!
All I can say is Glen’s personal life dont matter to me nor concern me. I watch Glen Beck yet I used to try to stomach Madcows show to see if I could get the other points of view. It seems lately when I watch MSNBC I dont get left side thoughts any more all I see on there is where they make fun of FOX channel. Madcow used to be the only show I could take on MSNBC as she seemed to be the one who didnt dis other stations. Now it seems she likes to just down anyone that dont agree with her like Blubberman and Chris (I got a tingle up my leg). What we need is a REAL news station that reports REAL news and whats REALLY going on instead of spewing hate against another station or people with other thoughts and ideas. I guess I watch Glen Beck so I can at least get ideas of where to start researching and looking for the truth on the net because God knows we are not going to get all sides fair on any station. I still like FOX news more then the others because they will report REAL news and I dont see much bashing the other station people as the others do. THATS what loses me. I hate people like MADCOW that bashed the tea parties just because she didnt agree with them and BLUBBERMAN AND CHRIS I got a tingle up my leg do. I guess their viewers are losing interest so all they have left it to name call.
Actually, I’m an ex-drug addict as well. Does that make me a bad person? I’m also a veteran. I know Glenn isn’t, but what’s the difference? Why do liberals have to dig up things from people’s past instead of arguing the REAL issues? Oh, liberal shit doesn’t stink, I forgot about that. I bet Glenn and I are both a lot stronger from our experiences than you are with your closed in, protected life. We’ve made our mistakes and pulled ourselves up by our bootstraps. Oh yeah, I also have a daughter with a girl I didn’t marry. Oh gosh, I’m a HORRIBLE person. Oh wait… I take care of her. Dang…. Try again libs…
Yes he is, he also points out that even as a recovering alcoholic dj & a former drug addict, that he understands what so many “educated” people with hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of elite Ivy League educations don’t. You know, things like economics, health care, those sorts of things. Sorry about being a longtime fan of someone who has actually lived hope & change rather then following someone who just uses those words as a slogan to advance his politics.
If he was gay he would be a Democrat and on MSNBC, Like Rachel Maddow, Or Cris Matthews,[Tingely sensation down his leg when ever Obama speaks].
HAHAH YAh I forgot Madcow was gay. Like I said I like to watch Glen Beck. Hes a good start on what to research on the net. I enjoy listening to his radio show as well. I just wish there was someone real on the left side as well so I can get a well rounded thought on whats going on. I like to hear real debate and discussions not name calling as they do on Misseditmbc.
Anne,
Obama had a drug addiction?? I think you forgot about the one! If I am remembering correctly he also quit smoking once he was in the White House. If you read his books and learn about his life. Obama and his wife looks like a political marriage like the Clintons.
IDB
I love Glenn Beck. He is one of the very few Television commentators I actually trust to tell it like it is — without regard to personal consequences. God bless him!
I guess if you have no regard for facts and just want to satisfy your own backwards myopic views, then yes, he really tells it like it is (in your own little world). God has a plan for people such as Beck and has nothing to do with blessings. I still can not understand the fascination with these uneducated “commentators”. They spread hate, contempt and try to polarize Americans from each other. This does not help America or it’s citizens.
Let the human mind loose. It must be loose. It will be loose. Superstition and Dogmatism cannot confine it. (John Adams, letter to John Quincy Adams, November 13, 1816)
The Angry Hateful Left speaks
Chicago Joe,
Let your mind be loosed as much as you want. Just keep your greedy hands off my hard earned money. Using the gov as a means of theft to support idleness is not a matter of free thinking. It’s theft, plain and simple bro.
Liberalism is nothing more than a doctrine as well. It’s really simple if you want to break it down to simple economics. You don’t work, you don’t eat. You choose to stay uneducated and sit at home , drink malt liqiour and play video games on your welfare check purchased plasma screen, don’t start shouting “free the mind” if you expect someone else to pay for your slothfulness.
Joe–Your mind isn’t just loose, it seem to have fallen out.
What’s funny is that I am not a liberal- well those who replied probably think anyone with an decent education would be liberal, but not in the sense that normal people would think. I actually hate most of these stupid cable shows and am well aware of the fact they are not the news and more or less a soap box for some agenda. Olberman, Maddow, O’Reilly, Beck, and Hannity are all the same (expect for the Daily Show). I think most people realize this. They are funny to watch, Beck especially. I just keep hoping he starts crying every show. Aren’t lib’s supposed to be the wimps???
K1000- I have no problem not instituting these social programs that “Using the gov as a means of theft”. Such as the purely socialist programs as Social Security & Medicare/Medicaid. These programs are completely run by government taxes. I will never need these programs and am in the tax bracket that gets hit with the most taxes.
You must also realize that these were programs installed by liberals and strongly opposed by their conservative counterparts.
So no government supported healthcare for anyone and a purely capitalistic society sounds great. Let’s do it!
Liberals with “decent” educations are usually majored in the “liberal” arts. As a degreed engineer, I am biased toward the applied sciences. This is where the real works gets done. Interpreting poetry aint my thing! Sorry you liberal artsy types. I would wager that a majority in the applied sciences are conservative whether they know it or not. I owe my livelyhood to God and the automotive segment from which I have worked. Now I am in aerospace until the Libs accomplish their goal of completely killing manufacturing in this Country. So some of us conservatives have educations also. Who would have thunk it?
Wow- You really do try to put everyone into a single category, guess that makes it less difficult to understand.
By the way Liberals are the ones keeping manufacturing jobs in America. Capitalism does not try to “save” jobs. It will seek the least expensive labor to maintain an acceptable level of quality. The American automobile industry has used such protectionism at it’s own peril. This is one of the many reasons it needed government assistance over the years. The American government should have never intervened in 70’s with Lee Iacocca or present day. I think it is funny that liberal unions and politicians are the ones that have kept it alive and yet this is who insult. You may have been better served to take some basic economic classes in addition to the engineering classes.
By the way:
The first three engineer friends that I know just off the top of my head are all liberals.
The unions are responsible for choking the life out of the American auto industry.
Making elitist jabs with your proverbial pinky in the air proves nothing. The “taa taa” tone just shows hypocrocy. You can make any claim about “the engineers” you know”. Over the last two decades, I have worked with more people that call themselves engineers than those that have the true credentials to make that claim. Companies hire these so called “engineers” everyday and slap that label on them. I have only worked with one or maybe two individuals that could actually solve a simple binomial equation, much less integral calc. of diffy q. Liberals give lip service to keeping jobs in America as long as it is favorable to get elected,but then strongly support the unions who have no desire to produce efficiently with quality. I have witnessed it first hand. Union engine assemblers watching portable TV while torquing down fasteners without looking. Feet propped up on a leather recliner in front of a 500ton press. Sleeping with the press running when I went by. Many other examples. This is who the Liberals support.
In theory, the global free trade idea works, all things being equal. Nothing you say about free true trade in untrue, but the US society had better be ready to downscale our current standard of living if we choose to play ball with communists societies like China and Russia. Their goverments will ensure that wages are controlled to maintain power. This will be the regulator for our wages. One way we could help equalize is to drop our indutrial environmental controls to keep the field level with say China. Probably not an option at this point.
I get crap parts shipped to me weekly from China but “capatilist” ,i.e. get it as cheap as possible is the driving force. Quality suffers, but the powers that be still are willing to accept inferior quality when compared to paying a union working to provide the same. It’s just expected that ,you guessed it, the engineers will “fix” it. Demming showed this a bad policy.
Global capatilism can only work if worldly philosophy is 100% or maybe even 85%+ capatilistic in thought and deed. Maybe those liberal “engineer” friends of yours should take a refresher in economics.
idiot
Keyboard chicken Jeremy? What’s your story, brainiac?
Sorry Jeremy. My mistake
Yep Unions is what drove Auto industry to the dirt. Their demands for higher pay, More and More health coverage ect… Unions bleed a company dry and then stand up and demand more till they smother it to death! Whats scary now is Obama and his lefties want to make TSA Union. That will make for great security wont it. A great pay off to the Unions for helping get Ohcrapa in office…. Thats going to be Security you can believe in too right?
If you don’t think The Daily Show isn’t a soapbox for a certain agenda then you’ve never watched it. I supposed Bill Mahr has no agenda either…
Geez… that sounds a little like judgment upon others. Are you who God appointed to judge people before die? Try me now. Hey, didn’t God say something about NOT passing judgment on your fellow man? I think he very well may have. I noticed that you didn’t actually mention what he was lying about… Strange… Since you know, I figured you could enlighten us… Guess not….
Brian,
FYI I talked with God the other day. He said he had been misquoted.
Chicago Joe needs to watch or listen to Beck more before he jumps him. It’s not so much Glenn telling it like it is, but he plays the video/audio of the person in their own words. They tell it like it is, Beck just presents it.
We have some nice parting gifts for you, thanks for playing.
I think you forget people with self educated are normally smarter than the people the go to school. They can think out side of the box. My father is one of the smart people I know and no college just a GED. I know many people that are brilliant. I guess you forgot about Bill Gates. He is great example. Many of the small business in this country are owned by people with no college education just a passion.
I have job that I am the only person in my department that does not have degree. Guess what I know more than them. I research, read, ask questions and trial by error. You need to look around you. Most of my friends are millionaires and they don’t have a college degree. Think long and hard before you answer.
Glenn Beck … I find him intriguing…I read his book and I enjoyed it…I started watching him on Headline news…… but he seems to steal a lot of his material from Michael Savage….the reason savage calls him the hemorroid with ears….
When I dont catch savage on the radio I know I can turn in the next day or a few days later to beck and get the same story….
One good thing is Beck gets this stuff out to a different audience than savage does …. but the more it gets out there…the better we all are….
I try to listen to Savage once in a while. The only thing I’ve heard him ranting about for 4 months is his lawsuit in the UK. It doesn’t appeal to me. Honestly, I couldn’t care less who breaks a story first. We might as well be talking about what musician sounds just like another. Talent is talent, wherever it lives.
Michael Savage is great. It’s too bad he has to spend so much time on this UK thing, but it’s because conservatives who supposedly believe in free speech have not come to his defense, and most top conservative media outlets have not even mentioned it. Fox News should be all over this story. Rush, Sean, O’Reilly and the rest have whimped out on the story because Savage has trash-talked them in the past. But hell, I thought we believed in free speech for all. Given how little these hosts seem to believe in free speech for all, Savage may have been right to attack them in the past.
If the U.K. banned Keith Olbermann, Rachel Maddow or a hater of their ilk, I’d be pissed about that as well. Free speech is free speech.
First they came for Savage….
Food for thought, and perhaps fuel for action.
Admin…I couldnt agree more…these so called “fox” conservatives are talking heads also…they have no individual thoughts….
They don’t beleive in anything other than ratings….they pander and they pander….just like ulberdork and rachel madman….
Did you listen to Beck this week? Do you ever listen? His research is impeckable. Your inane comments do you no justice!
I respectfully disagree, jasonwedge. I think Beck cares less for the ratings verses giving a much needed voice to many Americans who are increasingly concerned about the direction of the government. A direction that started long before Obama was set in stone pretty solidly by GW Bush. We are now being marched “Bataan” style, forced to trample over the Constitution with blinding speed toward a full fledged socialist/facist state. (and yes, I know the definition of each – just because elements of one ideology are in place doesn’t exclude the other from also being implemented.)
“The road to hell is paved with liberals”
Amen!!!
trouble is they’re dragging me and my family with them…
I Like the idea of paving the road with liberals, boiled down to sort of a shitty grease first
treehog…talent is your talent only if it comes from you…he has talked about his lawsuit because he was banned from the UK for talking …. Doesn’t that worry you a bit?
Beck is good for his shock value of things that is for sure…but when you steal the shock and put it out there…don’t claim to be the one behind the idea…thats all…
The more I watch TV the more I realize that I’m not sure I can believe anything I see anymore….maybe thats why I find the SciFi channel so interesting because it may be the most realistic channel…
I didn’t mean to imply that I don’t sympathize with Savage’s case. I do. I’m just not interested in hearing the same story every day. There’s a lot to Beck’s show (tv and radio) that I haven’t seen elsewhere. I don’t really think it’s fair to say that his career has been based on stealing ideas from others and passing them off as his own. The 912 project is a good example of that. (If he’s stolen that from someone else it would be news to me.)
I follow Glenn Beck and Michael Savage religiously. I have read most the books from both these fine Gentleman. I do not believe that Glenn is “stealing” from Savage or Vice Versa. At times they do cover the same things but most of the time they are talking about different subjects and have different points of view. I believe both are great at digging into the grim of politics and finding the hidden agendas that the Government are trying to conceal
When Beck was on CNN he did a story on the Antichrist with John Hagee.
He had a list of the similarities between the Antichrist and Islam’s Mahdi.
I gave him that list and gave him the source from where I got it.
On TV he said his researchers put together the list.
So I think he might be “borrowing” things from other people without attribution. This is a flaw that I just have to forgive him about.
tree…it does come up here and there on his show…and i agree i dont want it to be the only thing that comes up …. I have never heard beck radio show…so I cant say…its not on in the chicagoland area….
I would put beck as my 2nd favorite tv/radio guy…Its just funny when he mentions something…and I already know where he’s going with it because I have already heard it on the radio….but I’d gladly listen to beck over limbaugh any day of the week…I guess I like savage and beck more than all the other guys because when a topic comes up you dont instantly know what side of it they are going to fall on…unlike many of these other tv/radio droughns on both sides…..
If you want to listen online to Beck’s radio show (which i honestly find more entertaining than his tv show. The producers are really amusing guys) try http://www.winkwnog.com/listen_live.php. It’s a station based in Florida. The woman that does the show before his (Mandy Connel I think. A local show) is a good listen too.
Savage isn’t on during my normal drive-time, but I might just make an effort to listen more.
Aside from personality, or who steals what from who, what I really like about Beck is that he makes me want to look for myself and not trust something just because I’ve heard it. His show re-awakens my patriotic, self evaluating, and crititcal thinking sides.
I agree with you on the others. I do like Rush more than I used to. I think his pompous attitude is offered with a rather large grain of salt, and is intended to be so. I really don’t care much for Hannity. I’ll listen once in a while, but more often than not he’s a bully to the people he has on and can be rather rude and insulting. When he demands that a guest answer a question, usually interrupting them to do so, it reminds me of continually pulling your car ahead a few feet while a friend is waiting to get in the passenger side.
You’re absolutely right. I cannot take Hannity. He’s does not know how to have a conversation, and simply talks over everyone. He loves the sound of his own voice. You nailed it on Rush. He acts pompous, but I think it’s more of an act. And his show is much, much better now than it was for years. The pomposity I can’t stand is Bill O’Reilly’s. His self-love is just too much for me to watch. Him and his fawning guests like Dick Morris.
I watched ten minutes of O’Reilly’s show the other day and it took all I have in me not to throw my remote through the screen. I avoid his broadcast like a bad smell.
its funny how so many “conservatives” despise hannity and and the leprechuan…someone should tell maddow … she would refuse to buy it…since all “conservatives” are racist, rich, old mean white men who have no brains….
remember according to the guy on MSNBC…socialism is the new N word…i can’t beleive how the race card now gets played….its amazing….
I agree with you about Hannity. I cant stand to listen to him. He takes an hour and a half to ask a question and he always has to do that counting a litany thing with his finger.
OReilly is an arrogant prick who is always telling his guests what th e important part of something is even if they thihnk its someths else.
Lefties should Remember though Oreilly is not a conservative.
Hear hear! No need to say more, you just said it all Administrator! So put that in your culture quiz pipe and smoke it Mr. Pomp and Circus Stance! I don’t like O’Reilly and Hannity mainly because, although the viewpoints they espouse are generally correct in my view, they themselves are 2 dimensional monkeys in suits. BUT – I have to give Hannity big props for the hard work he does for vets and others with his Freedom concerts (then again he has to go and mess them up with his rendition of The Devil Went Down to Georgia!).
Beck, Savage and Levin get my vote; and lest you think they tell me how to think, I listen to them because they echo my thoughts and feelings on the issues. I also watch CNN and MSNBC though – even though I’ve smashed three TV’s now in frustration (LOL).
Its amazing to me that you think that because a few of you don’t like the Fox guys, that the rest of the country agrees with you. First of all, have you seen the ratings. Oreally, Beck, and Hanity have the top spots in this country. You keep believing the people on MSNBC and when you relize how much they destort the truth, lets see if you are man enough to addmit you were taken for the liberal ride of lies. And by the way, if you worked for a living instead of taking the free to you government handouts of my hard earned money, maybe you would see things differently. The Robinhood way of the Dems. is wearing thin. I should just quit my job and live on what I worked hard for all my 50 yrs , that way maybe without me working and paying for those who don’t want to work, the well will run dry. I don’t know why you think you should have all the wonderful things I have. And If you do want them, get off you butt, stop smoking everything you smoke, stop drinking everynight and get up and put in a 10 hr. day.
I believe that it must be impossible to be a top rated cable host without a stupendous amount of narcissism. These people literally bath in self glory. O’reilly’s love of self grows on a daily basis. But has anyone noticed that when ever the subject turns to matters of economics HE GETS EVERYTHING WRONG.? I wish O’reilly would take some business courses at a local Jr. college or spend 6 months working as a stockbroker or just buy a gas station for a couple of weeks. And I am sick of listening to Savage whine about his lack of support from other talkers when he lambasts them with filthy names. Duh.
It’s good that Beck is shaking things up a little bit over there at FOX, I’m often put off by the O’Reilly swagger (its only entertaining if you are William Shatner and get the joke) and Hannity seems like a good guy . . . but it is so painful to watch him struggle with even the simplest of concepts whenever he has to go off the talking points.
“remember according to the guy on MSNBC…socialism is the new N word…i can’t beleive how the race card now gets played….its amazing….”
Socialism is not the new ‘N’ word, it is the old ‘S’ word . . . slavery.
Maddow going down like a dike on a dike.
I think that one thing that could really improve Fox is to get rid of Geraldo! What is he doing there? Send his a55 to msnbc! Glenn Beck may be the voice that saves America from being bullied by obama and henchmen into socialism. Government keeps getting bigger, richer and fatter and mainstream America is starving! O’Rielly is fearless with the truth as well!!
I agree, Geraldo is the balance part. If it were left up to him, anyone from any country could come here to America and live off the hard working people. Non of them want to pay taxes. If they have a business, they deal only in cash. That way they can keep their hard earned money and then jump on our welfare system and get food stamps and suck the life out of every worker in this country. If they want to come to this country, they should have to serve in our military for four years first.
OMG I cant stand Geraldo. He really makes my skin crawl. I like Beck a lot. He is a good base to get facts from and ideas on where to start researching on the net. People can make fun of him but he cares about whats happening in this country!
Geraldo is a bleeding heart too much for my tastes, but he is more rational then most libs. He is smart enough to call scumbag criminals what they are, & does’nt care if they are exicuted. Most libs go nuts over the death penalty. Geraldo is a legit journalist, with a legal backround, & he will state his case, & the fact that FoxNews lets him do so is a good thing. If you saw the slugfest he had with O’Reilly about illegal imigration, you know what I mean. They went at it, finished a bit early, & laughed about how hot it got. I don’t agree with Geraldo all of the time, but I like what he brings to the table, & I think that Fox has a guy who will swim upsteam makes them what they have become. Unlike BSNBC or CNN, all in lock step, it’s like watching the North Koean military march by their leader Kim Jong Il.
Glenn Back has asked repeatedly for any dispute of his facts. I see none in the comments so far. Libs just call him names. I particularly like the criticism from the one who admitted she canceled cable (and thus has NEVER seen his show).
Strange as it may seem, there is no universal clear definition of Fascism. A fasci was an Italian night stick carried by Moussolini’s goons.That is a pretty good indication of what the word should mean right there. The left has always turned things around backward. Remember the” Peoples Republic” of the Soviets? There was no republic and it had nothing to do with the people except to screw them.
In response to JasonWedge. Beck and Fox Commentators have no individual thinking? You sir are the epitome of the liberal think mentality. The Fox commentators are the only ones engaging in free think. All you other loons are the ones who are following the political correct thinking. Without Fox News, we would be in a world of hurt (even more than we are now) because they have told the truth of whats going on. They comment and back it up with facts and backgrounds of these people running our government. The corruption is rampant. And yes it not just the Democrats but they make up more than their fair share of it. When you start converting our Republic into a soft tyranny the true middle class, who pay taxes, will revolt. Obama has done one thing so far. He has divided this Country more than any other President in recent history.

The rest of us poor peasants will be looking around and saying..WOW!! whered our country go?, and what have we done putting him office…well I won’t say that because I didn’t vote for him and feel sorry for those people who are so ill informed about what he is. They are the one’s who we will blame for all this.
TO QUOTE BUSH……………..YOU ARE WITH US OR AGAINST US!!!
YOU ARE ANTI AMERICAN! YOU WOULD MAKE US ALL HAPPY IF U WOULD TAKE YOUR GUNS AND YOUR NON EDUCATED PEEPS AND LEAE OUR COUNTRY. 
YOU GOPERS LOST!!
Thank you for proving how stupid you idiots on the Left are.
It pains me to have to explain to you that “with us or against us” was in the context of war. You stupid bitch. Not domestic politics, but international warfare.
Stella, I left one of your comments on so I could reply to you. You’re gonna have to stop shouting if you’d like to keep posting. And try to post something intelligent.
Stella,
You are right. We did lose “this” time. Time being the great equalizer will prove that anti-capatilist, non-productive, socialist ideals of the left are as “anti-american” as you can get!
For the time being, I shall keep my guns as a defense against the likes of yourself and others who would love to justify taking property from those who have earned it and use it to satisfy your own greed. I will also pledge once again to use my education to be as productive as I can to support the capatilist, free ideals of the USA as she has existed historically. Thanks for the stupid comments. It only works to re-temper the resolve of the conservatives. At least for now, I am not going to “LEAE” the country.
Also, as everyone with any sense knows, you cannot educate a peep. They don’t listen. Especially the yellow ones!
Very tasty though and they give one heck of a sugar rush!!
Detractors of Glenn Beck often site arguments like “less then one present of Americans watch him” or “he is looseing advertisers left and right” (should it be the goal of the media to apease corporate sponcers? Well if your the MSM… but I digress). And of course the non stop personal attacks and insults.
The fact Glenn’s detractors cannot disprove his facts or how he strings together his facts to show the hidden Progressive agenda is the REAL STORY.
The Progressive Agenda, if left unchecked, will fundamentaly transform our country into something the vast majority of Americans would NEVER allow if it were presented openly. THIS IS WHY BECK RESONATES with so many Americans. For every American who watches his show there are 5 others, who through association, open their eyes to BHO’s hidden progressive agenda.
And to all you Progressives who thought you could pull the wool over the rest of our eyes- if you think it’s loud now just wait untill 2010 and 2012. As the old shampoo commercial used to say, “they told two friends and so on, and so on, and so on, and so on”.
It appears that all of the hate is actually coming from the so called, “conservatives”. Every time our current administration tries to better the situation in our country, the conservatives cry and whine about something-more like, lie about something. I am a white middle ages white woman from Wyoming, and I can’t stand beck and his lies, fox and the lies, the people that are trying to repair and fix this country from the past 8 years of corruption and lies from the bush/cheney machine. If these so called christians would read their Bible, they would see who on God’s side. God Bless America-my mother was an immigrant from England, I’m white, Christian, and I rebuke the republicans of this day. I bet God wishes they would get brains.
This country was going in the tank and bush couldn’t even begin to try to fix it. He asked President Obama to step in before he was even inaugurated. The economy is now on the right track, thanks to all that our President did to prevent a total economic meltdown. I have relatives around the world in Canada and England and Europe, and all of those countries are happy for us to finally get a president with some brains in office.
God Bless the U.S.
Beck is a Nazi
Beck is a skinhead
Beck is off his bed, on drugs, and lies… And, what does that say about all of you looneys that listen to him. It says that you too, are off of your rocker. Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, Fox lies, how’s that for your Fox lies, I mean, Machelvelian tactics…
Not that I have anything against Wyoming, but one privilage I will exercise as a private pilot will be to open the window and release a restitution fart in the name of all middle aged white women living in Wyoming if I ever find myself transitioning Wyoming airspace.
Rebuke that; white Wyoming women from the “middle ages”.
Obama’s words ring hollow, his deeds are: caucus fixing, FISA vote, book deal before taking oath of office, Black Panthers voter intimidation, ACORN, Rezko (still awaiting sentencing?!?), treasury raiding tax cheats, etc., etc… I’ve been inspired to sacrifice by Jesus, Ghandi, King; but not by a schmoozing, network ass kisser who’s never done a damn thing. Anything you contribute to Obama’s “just” cause will end up in his and his friends pockets — just like Bush. The govt. already extorts almost 50% of our labor for protection and tribute. They have borrowed, printed, and spent your grandchildren into slavery. They pass secret laws in the middle of the night making it illegal for you to expose them. And if that wasn’t enough, they blatantly lie on TV everyday as if we were fools to be fleeced. Beck is right: send tha bastards packing.
See what breeding with socialist-euros produces?
Don’t do it!!!!!
Everything Beck says is backed up by facts of which you can find if you look. The Democrats have all the power so no matter what Beck or Limbaugh or anyone says they can do what they want. The question you need to ask is why is Obama going back on all those promises he made during the election. What is stopping them, not the Republicans, they are left out of all the decisions.
your house is on fire and you are shooting at the firemen you dumb aged whore
Wow, you’re crazy!
John Stossel is also coming to Fox. ANOTHER ratings bonanza will ensue.
Canyou imagine Beck’s ratings if he was primetime? Sheesh… the guy’s at 5pm!
Stossel kicks a$$. One of the smartest people in the mdeia today, if not the smartest. He belongs on Fox, & now he’s there.
beck is the best ever
The reason Olberman’s Ratings are as high as they are is because he is always ragging on Glenn Beck.
BathTubBoy does not have high ratings, but what ratings he has are due to Beck & O’Reilly rants. Also, Bachmann & Palin have replaced Bush & Cheney. But Olby has very poor ratings, particularly when you look at his number vs his actual compitition, which he never beats.
He may be the highest rated host on BSNBC, but that is like being the greatest ice hockey player from Kenya. BTW, same goes for the highest rated liberal radio host, Special Ed Schultz. You might be the #1 lib on radio, but that ain’t exactly a big deal.
face it obama is a marxist, fascist,maoist, communist piece of shit hell bent on the destruction of our constitutional and capitalist way of life that was put in place by the founders. If he persists he will preside over the bloodiest period in American history. Americans are not down with Marxism and will not go into the night quietly. He is not trying to help anyone exept his leftist friends, the entire stimulus package was designed to fund his marxist friends and appointees. Glenn Beck is the only one on the tv that has the balls to point out what is becoming obvious to anyone that can read and has ears to hear and eyes to see. He is telling the truth. Everyone else just prattles on about giving obamo a chance, that would be the equivelent of waiting to see if hitler wanted to kill all the jews as opposed to most of them. Socialism Kills., Oppose it to your last breath. Beware of the democratic revelution, it appears dressed in free shit bought with the sweat and blood of others and when given power it brings destruction of liberty, prosperity, happiness, self determination, and cannot be removed because it always seeks to strip that power from the people, no freedom of speech or ownership of weapons and persecution of dissent. We stand on the brink of a thousand years of darkness if we do not resist these usurping assholes.
Hey Daniel, don’t sugar coat it. Tell us how you really feel.
all i have to say is one this web site… read this all you joe six packs!!
http://www.globalone.tv/group/bellofliberty/forum/topics/day-in-the-life-of-a-joe
Really? That’s all you have to say? One joe six pack with a limp and one eye is better than 20 misguided liberals stuck in group think.
Think for thyself soldier and go find John Galt. He has a word for you.
beck is out there, but if you take notice those he spoke of have left the whitehouse, dont guess its all lies!!!!!
Stella — was that you I saw under the bleechers doing Glen and the rest of the team?
