By: Steve - September 3, 2010 - 11:30am At his Restoring Honor rally, Glenn Beck said this: "America today begins to turn back to God. For too long, this country has wandered in darkness." Beck sounded like Billy Graham, according to Rev. Richard Land, a prominent Southern Baptist leader. The next day, on Fox News, Beck morphed his so-called non-political message into a stinging political attack against President Obama, claiming the President's worldview was shaped by "Marxism disguised as religion." Beck attacked Obama as "A guy who understands the world through liberation theology, which is oppressor-and-victim. People aren't recognizing his version of Christianity." Ironically, while Beck is casting stones at President Obama and his faith, his own faith is one that many Christians view as a perversion of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Beck, who is a converted Mormon, was raised in a Catholic home, and he has been attacked by many evangelicals who say he is not a Christian because of his Mormon beliefs. In fact, via Christian Newswire, here's a press release that one evangelical group sent out during Saturday's Beck rally: Glenn Beck promotes a false gospel. However, many of his political ideas can help America. Mormonism is not a Christian denomination but a cult of Christianity. Many endorse false gospels including Mormonism.Brannon Howse, a conservative writer and founder of Worldview Weekend, said, "While I applaud and agree with many of Glenn Beck's conservative and constitutional views, that does not give me or any other Bible-believing Christian justification to compromise Biblical truth by spiritually joining Beck." "Jesus Christ's Church has universally rejected Mormonism's Anti-Trinitarian theology and its claim that mortals may become God," David Shedlock, an evangelical blogger, wrote on a FreedomWorks forum earlier this month. "Beck asks Christian leaders to 'put differences aside,' but Beck himself daily peppers his broadcasts with Mormon distinctives because he cannot keep his beliefs to himself." Beck often speaks about faith on his radio show and Fox News program, but he almost never mentions his own faith, Mormonism. Bill Keller, the leader of the world's largest interactive Christian website, said earlier this year, Beck "lies to people by trying to portray himself as a Christian." "The fact is, the beliefs of the satanic Mormon cult are totally inconsistent with Biblical Christianity," Keller said. It's politically convenient for Beck to be attacking Obama's religion, while rarely ever mentioning his own. Glenn Beck Is A Nut Case By: Jim - September 2, 2010 - 8:30am This Beck guy is a real nut case...Just read his Wikipedia biography. As a quick psychological profile, it explains so much about him as a textbook megalomaniac (including his study of another one...Adolf Hitler, in which I can see similar tactics being leveraged from Hitler and his minister of propaganda, Joseph Goebbels as far as the cult of personality and the strategy of rallying the disenfranchised in society to his cause. Beck even owns his own media company to get the dogma out there. I’m convinced that Beck's also a racist. I just viewed a Youtube video clip where he is watching a speech by President Obama and refers to it as something from the "Planet of the Apes". Further...this Tea Party political movement has certain extremist undertones that reminds me of the brown shirt thugs of early Nazi Germany, or the Red Guard in China in the mid 60's. To me it's the Taliban faction of the Republican Party. Who are they trying to kid saying they are not? The Tea Party is nothing more than the "Swift Boat Veterans for Truth" propaganda model on steroids and meth that claims to be unaffiliated with the GOP. The sad thing is...racists and anti-government/tax morons (anti-infrastructure idiots really) want to believe it and want to see it disrupt our nation simply because collectively, I believe that these people are nothing more than a similar strain of racist, ignorant, insecure and jealous people of Nazi Germany. I don't like what I'm seeing at all with this...Especially when Beck is calling it a restoration of honor and holding it on that same day and at the same location that Martin Luther King gave his remarkable "I have a dream" speech about tolerance and inspiration. Beck said that it was "just a coincidence" that his mob is rallying today. He's a liar and doesn't know what the word honor means. If he was truly honorable and true to his convictions, he would tell it like it really is...That he is a racist, that he love's fame, power and is keeping a close eye on his growing fortune. Beck is nothing more than Limbaugh 2.0. Another selfish, unethical, well-paid republican pawn in it for the buck I think, more than the message. This movement and the weak economy is not a good combination. Again, it reminds me in some key ways of the fledgling Nazi movement in Germany during the 1920's, and similar conditions in other nations throughout world history that later experienced significant political upheaval that led to totalitarianism, loss of personal freedoms, and the persecution of those that have opposing perspectives or worse, different racial and cultural backgrounds. Lastly...what really burns me to the core is that both Beck and Limbaugh in all their patriotic fervor didn't have the guts and conviction as young men to volunteer and serve honorably in the United States Military as I did along with millions of others who are members of the Democratic Party which they despise. For that...as an American Military Veteran...I piss on both of them as cowards along with the other hypocritical chicken-hawk pussies like Gingrich and Cheney that mindless fools in our nation listen to. Bush and his poor "tone at the top" along with Greenspan empowered the Gordon Geckos of Wall Street to f___ the world up financially and W's poor leadership choices prevented the CIA from getting Bin Laden when they had him within their grasp (read Jawbreaker). Obama inerited this mess, and is man enough to try to fix it. The sad thing is, it takes effort, trial and error and time, just like everything else in life. The naysayers that got us here in the first place would just hate to see him succeed, now wouldn't they? Why? Because their name and party wouldn’t be on the signature line and just perhaps because he's not completely white. As if that really matters. I'm a white male. My wife is asian, My great kids are both. So what? In summary: F___ the neo-cons. Fleischer Calls Glenn Beck Weird And Creepy By: Steve - August 31, 2010 - 9:30am In a post on his Facebook page, former Bush White House press secretary Ari Fleischer offered criticism of Fox News host Glenn Beck, writing: "I find Glenn Beck to be a little weird and a little creepy, but he's entitled to give a speech on the Mall. In his comments section, Fleischer continued of Beck: "I like his small government point of view, but he acts like he's the second coming. I find him too zany and apocryphal for my taste." Fleischer later added: He talks in terms of Apocalypse and he says he fears people like "us" are going to get arrested.So even some Republicans can see through the fear con game Beck is running. Too bad more of them do not speak out, then maybe Beck would go away. My Top 5 Crazy Glenn Beck Rally Statements By: Steve - August 29, 2010 - 9:00am There is no way I could comment on all the crazy things Beck said at the right-wing church picnic he had Saturday, so I have picked my top 5 most crazy Beck statements. 5) Beck: "America today begins to turn back to God." Beck said, "Something beyond imagination is happening. Something that is beyond man is happening. America today begins to turn back to God." 4) Beck: "I have been looking for the next George Washington. I know he is in this crowd." Beck said, "Somewhere in this crowd -- I know it. I have been looking for the next George Washington. I know he is in this crowd. He may be 8 years old, but this is the moment. This is the moment that he dedicates his life, that he sees giants around him. And 25 years from now, he will come not to this stair, but to those stairs. And he can proclaim, 'I have a new dream.' 3) Beck compares himself to "the man who saw the iceberg" on the Titanic. Beck said, "I know that many in this country think that I'm a fearmonger. It is not a label that I think applies. I do talk about frightening things. But I don't think the man who saw the iceberg as the Titanic was about to hit it and said, 'It's an iceberg,' was a fearmonger. He was warning people on the ship." 2) Beck: "I can relate to Martin Luther King probably the most." After reciting the names of Moses, Abraham Lincoln, and George Washington, Beck said that "out of all these giants, I can relate to Martin Luther King probably the most because we haven't carved him in marble yet." And the winner is...... 1) Beck said the 8-28 rally would be an "American Miracle" and that the "spirit of God" would be unleashed. Beck called it everything from "an American miracle" to a "defibrillator to the heart of America." Beck also claimed that with the rally, he and his audience would be able to "reclaim the distorted" civil rights movement. In the days and weeks leading up to 8-28 rally, Beck promoted the idea that God was directly involved in the day's events. He said that attendees would "see the spirit of God unleashed," and claimed the rally will produce an "awakening." He even said that God gave him good weather for the rally, even though it's August and almost every day has good weather. But here is the best one. In a video posted at his website, Beck placed the "Restoring Honor" rally in the context of the moon landing, the Montgomery bus boycott, Iwo Jima, and the signing of the Declaration of Independence. The video also implied that Beck is following in the tradition of Martin Luther King, Abraham Lincoln, the Founding Fathers, Martha Washington, and the Wright Brothers. And the insane video was also shown at the "Restoring Honor" rally. Now that's fricking crazy. The Beck Comparisons To MLK Were Ridiculous By: Steve - August 29, 2010 - 8:30am Saturday at the Glenn Beck church picnic, oops I mean Restoring Honor Rally. And btw, exactly how did Beck restore honor to America by having a religious rally with 90,000 conservatives. So anyway, at the religious rally Beck said some crazy things, but one thing stood out to me as really crazy. After reciting the names of Moses, Abraham Lincoln, and George Washington, Beck said this: BECK: I can relate to Martin Luther King probably the most. Out of all these giants, I can relate to Martin Luther King probably the most because we haven't carved him in marble yet.Now that's f-ing crazy, because Martin Luther King and Glenn Beck are like fire and water, they are exact opposites. In no way can Glenn Beck relate to MLK, and if MLK were alive today he would not relate to Glenn Beck at all. Let me show you a few ways that they are exactly opposite. -- MLK believed that it was America's collective responsibility to provide economic justice for all. In 1961, MLK addressed the AFL-CIO on his vision of the American Dream. King said that his vision of America's promise was a country where equality of opportunity, of privilege and property are widely distributed; a dream of a land where men will not take necessities from the many to give luxuries to the few.Glenn Beck has repeatedly insulted and opposed any government attempt to help the poor. Beck has claimed that Big government never lifts anybody out of poverty. It creates slaves, people who are dependent on the scraps from the government, the handouts. He has said that President Obama is really is a Marxist because he believes in the redistribution of wealth.MLK championed using his faith to achieve social justice. King called himself an advocator of the social gospel, and saw Jesus's teachings as commanding him to take part in progressive activism to achieve social justice. In a 1963 speech Western Michigan University, he said that he saw an age of social justice as the goal of his movement.Beck is 100% opposed to social justice, and attacked Christians who want to use their faith to achieve it. Beck told his viewers that when they hear the words social justice they should run, and don't listen to anyone who is telling you differently. He also accused progressives of trying to hijack churches with a message of social justice. He even wrongly claimed that civil rights demonstrators weren't crying out for social justice.MLK believed in loving those who disagreed with him and engaging in thoughtful dialogue. One of the hallmarks of King's philosophy and what separated him from many other leaders was his advocacy for maintaining thoughtful and respectful dialogue with those who disagreed with his goals. In 1957, the civil rights leader gave a sermon titled, Loving Your Enemies.Beck has repeatedly attacked his political opponents with vicious and hateful language. Beck has compared president Obama to the Antichrist and said that it was approaching treason to elect a more progressive Congress.In fact, it would be hard to find two people with philosophies so different than Glenn Beck and Dr. Martin Luther King. While MLK fought for all people to be able to live a decent life, championed a compassionate version of Christianity that sought to create a better world, and established dialogue with those who disagreed with him. Beck shows little compassion for those he disagrees with, has slammed the social gospel, and has viciously smeared and attacked his political opponents. So for Glenn Beck to claim he relates to Dr. King more than anyone is laughable, and just another lie from Beck. Dr. King and Glenn Beck are nothing alike, in fact, they are exact opposites. The Beck 8-28 Rally Crowd Size Estimate & Photo By: Steve - August 28, 2010 - 3:30pm Update: 6:30pm -- The CBS Evening News reported 87,000 people were at the Beck rally, which if true, is not even close to the 500,000 Beck reported. Approximately 87,000 people attended the rally, according to a crowd estimate commissioned by CBS News. The estimate was made using aerial photos taken at noon, which was judged to be the height of the event. The estimate has a margin of error of 9,000 people. And btw, Beck even mentioned the plane invading their air space during the rally, I heard him say it myself, which must have been the plane that took the aerial photo to do the crowd rally estimate for CBS. Here is a photo of the Beck 8-28 rally: 
And so far I have seen estimates from tens of thousands to 100,000, to 200,000, but clearly it was not 500,000 or more as Beck claimed. I am guessing it was somewhere between 100,000 and 150,000, but that is a 100% guess, based on numbers I have seen at different websites and media sources. The NY Times wrote this, here is a partial quote from their article: WASHINGTON - Tens of thousands of people rallied at the steps of the Lincoln Memorial on Saturday, summoned by Glenn Beck, a conservative broadcaster who called for a religious rebirth in America at the site where the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his famous "I Have a Dream" speech 47 years ago to the day.And those are the Beck people who are saying it was 500,000, but if you look at the photo you can see it is not 500,000. So they were lying, because it was more like 100,000 to 200,000. Which is big for a right-wing rally, but don't forget they bused people in from all over the country for free, and promoted it for months on all the right-wing tv/radio/internet outlets. As soon as I get some kind of valid crowd size number from a trusted source, I will publish it, but as of now it's just all guesswork. You can see for yourself that it was not 300,000, or 500,000 as Beck claimed, it was more like 100,000 to 200,000. In fact, Beck implied it was way more than 500,000, which is just ridiculous. The Glenn Beck 8-28 Rally Review By: Steve - August 28, 2010 - 1:30pm Before C-SPAN stsrting airing the event I read a posting from a blogger who was at the rally, and they said Beck was playing a tape of the MLK I have a dream speech, which must have MLK rolling over in his grave. The liberal blogger said it made her sick to hear the MLK speech at the Beck rally. Especially after Beck had said the rally date had nothing to do with MLK,yeah right, now we know that was a load of garbage. Some preacher opened the event with a prayer, but I did not catch his name. Then Beck spoke for a few minutes about something his child said to him, and Beck spoke about God, the military, and the SOWF charity. Then the President of the SOWF John Carney spoke for a few minutes. All during this the C-SPAN cameras showed crowd shots and I noticed something, I did not see one black person in the crowd, not one, it was all white people. The SOWF President spoke for a while about military veterans, and then the mother of a dead soldier spoke. Then Beck was back and he asked people to text SOWF and a number to make a $10.00 donation, and I saw a few people on the screen doing it. Beck went on and on about God and Liberty, restoring Honor, etc. It was more like being in church than a rally to honor the troops. I lost count of the God mentions by Beck at about 100, lol. At 9:36am CST Sarah Palin started speaking, the crowd gave her a standing ovation and loved her of course. Palin talked about God, the military, Liberty, etc. It was basically the same stuff Beck was saying, just Palin saying it instead of Beck. Stupid Sarah read a speech someone else probably wrote for her, she talked about MLK, God, patriot stuff, the usual crap. She also said she was there as a mother of a soldier, not a politician, yeah right, give me a break. Palin told 3 stories of military men who served proudly and were wounded etc. Palin asked if this day could be a change point, she said may we make this day a change point, whatever the hell that means. Then she thanked God, said God bless America, and she was done around 9:53am CST. Then I thanked God she was finally done, because just looking at her and listening to her is painful, haha. 9:53 - Beck was back on with more God, Liberty, and military honor talk. And all during this music was playing with a photo slideshow on the big screen at the rally, while Beck talked over it from off the screen. Just like he does on his tv show. It's kind of creepy, by that I mean hearing Beck talk without seeing him, and with the music playing. Beck then told the people he would give out 3 medals for, faith, hope, and charity. The first one went to a black preacher from Texas who was appointed to something by the Republican Gov. Rick Perry. The Hope award was given to Albert Pujols by Tony LaRussa, the manager of the St. Louis Cardinals. And the Charity award was given to some billionaire, but I did not catch his name because someone accepted the award from him. Emma Houston accepted the award for him. Then Beck came back on to introduce the niece of MLK, she spoke and had a few other people speak, all blacks btw. A black preacher spoke, and a couple black women sang a couple songs. This was the 10 minute part of the rally where Beck had a few blacks on so he could claim he is not a racist. Basically he had a few token blacks on for maybe 10 minutes, of the 3 hour rally. The rest of it was all white people, and I have still not seen one black person in the crowd. I noted that the crowd of white Republicans barely applauded the black speakers, you could barely hear anything from them. But when Palin spoke they went nuts like they were at the super bowl, it was so loud it was crazy. When the blacks spoke it was almost silent. I was thinking I bet the white Republicans at the rally loves that, and I would also bet some of them wish they could have been somewhere else when the black people were on the stage. 11:08am CST. Beck was back again with more music, photo slideshows, and talk over the photos. The same God, Liberty, military honor stuff. Beck talked crowd size, he said the media is reporting anywhere from 2,000, to 10's of thousands, to 300,000, to 500,000. Then Beck said if the media is saying 500,000, only God knows how many people are actually there. Which implied that it was more than 500,000, and that the media was lying when they said it was 500,000. But not once did Beck say what media outlet was saying they had 500,000 people. He never mentioned any names, not once, he just said someone said it was 500,000, with no named source. And then Beck gave another short speech talking God, etc. and cried while doing it, of course. Beck started a big speech at 11:10am, that lasted an hour. during the speech it was God this, God that, God, God, God, all God talk, all the time. God is the answer, and always will be. Beck said he relates to MLK more than anyone, which is just ridiculous. Beck said look to the heavens, and God. Beck even used the lame don't give them fish, teach them to fish garbage. He also said the people should praise America, and that even the poorest people in the country have it great. Beck slammed the media numerous times, and said God is sending us a wake up call, whatever that means. And btw, at 1:07pm CST. I saw a report from CNN on the Beck rally and they did not even give a crowd size number. They just said it was a lot of people. During the Beck speech he even denied being a fearmonger, but then he said he is just warning the people and waking them up using fear, ummmmm, Glenn, that's called being a fearmonger you idiot. Beck also called for people to tell the truth, and to give 10% of their monry to charity. Which is a joke, because Beck and Fox News are the biggest liars in America. Beck went on and on with that truth will set you free crap, like a preacher at a church. The whole thing was ridiculous, and more like a church meeting for white Republicans. It was all God, Guns, Liberty, and Honor talk. Mostly God talk, Beck sounded like a preacher. And I thanks God I don't have to watch this right-wing nonsense ever again. Beck Civil Rights Claims Are Just Insane By: Steve - August 28, 2010 - 9:00am Glenn Beck says he is a new civil rights leader, and that he is doing this 8-28 rally to restore honor. Except the rally is on the anniversary of the MLK I have a dream speech, which he did on purpose, even though he denies it. Not to mention the fact that he is giving his speech on the same steps where MLK gave his speech. Beck claims it is different because he will be a few steps down from where MLK stood, which is just ridiculous. And the whole thing is a giant fraud of a right-wing con game. Because Beck is about as far from being a civil rights leader as any one person could be. In fact, Beck is a racist right-wing idiot that wants to take rights away from people, which makes him the exact opposite of Martin Luther King. And btw, Beck is white, so what civil rights for whites is he fighting for, when they already have all their civil rights. Here are some examples of what Beck has said in the past. Beck: Obama is a "racist" with a "deep-seated hatred for white people." Then 100 advertisers pulled their ads from his show, including Republican owned corporations like Wal-Mart, etc. Beck suggested Obama's name is un-American. On the February 4th Glenn Beck show, Beck said this: "He chose to use his name, Barack, for a reason. To identify, not with America -- you don't take the name Barack to identify with America. You take the name Barack to identify with what? Your heritage? The heritage, maybe, of your father in Kenya, who is a radical?" Does that sound like something a real civil rights leader would say, no, it's what a far right racist partisan hack would say. Beck: Obama elected because of race, not policies. On the June 8, 2009, Glenn Beck radio show, Beck said this about the 2008 election: "You were voting for - not change, but change, I think, in race. You were like 'Hey, let's put this behind us.' I think a lot of people were there. They weren't necessarily for his policies because his policies and everything else are - what are they?" Which is just ridiculous, Obama was elected because he is a very smart man, because he ran a good campaign, because he was a Democrat, and mostly because Bush and the Republicans had ruined the country in the 8 years they had, so any Democratic candidate would have won. If Hillary had won the Democratic primary she would have crushed McCain too, and she is white. So that kills the Beck argument that he only won because he is black. Beck also sees "slavery" everywhere. Beck frequently invokes "slaves" and "slavery" in attacking Democrats and progressives. While talking about the debt per taxpayer Beck said this: "Do you see all of these zeros? You know what those are? Those are links in a chain. It is slavery. It is slavery for you and slavery for our children. Your kids are being enslaved." While talking about a book written in 1940 Beck said this: "If you don't know history, you can't make the decisions that we need to make. Starting in early 1940, Hayek began writing a little book called "The Road to Serfdom." The book clearly and logically explained how any form of central government planning usually leads to serfdom, or servitude, slavery. It extinguishes freedom." While talking about Recipients of federal aid, Beck said this: "These are the people who've been abused by the system. They've been taught they needed the government. They've been taught to be slaves, and their master is Washington. Well the truth shall set you free and it is coming with a vengeance." Beck has even called President Obama a slavemaster. On the January 11th Fox News show, Beck said this: "The most effective way to become the slavemaster and make them come to you is to make them come to you for employment. How could you ever, if you're the president, lose your job if the voter understands that 'if I vote for the competitor who wants to reduce the size of government, that means my job goes away. I'll lose my job.' The real power grab is getting them into your employ." Then Beck even praised a constitutional provision protecting slave trade. In his 2009 book, Beck reprinted and praised the now-obsolete Article I, Section 9, Clause 1 of the Constitution, which prohibited Congress from ending the slave trade before 1808 and capped taxes on the slave trade at $10 per slave. Beck interpreted the provision to mean that "the Founders actually put a price tag on coming to this country: $10 per person. Apparently they felt like there was a value to being able to live here." In 1995, Beck and his co-hosts at KC101 in Hartford, Connecticut were made to apologize for mocking an Asian man who called into the program. The Hartford Courant reported in October 20, 1995: "When Zhihan Tong telephoned WKCI - FM to protest the broadcast as a racial slur, disc jockeys Glenn Beck and Pat Grey made fun of him. The two played a gong in the background several times, and Papineau, the executive producer, mocked a Chinese accent." Beck's 2009 book is full of stereotypes. Beck's book is rife with cartoons depicting serape- and sombrero-clad Mexicans with thick mustaches. The book also uses a cartoon Chinese takeout container to represent Chinese immigrants. Beck also promoted the racist anti-Semite Elizabeth Dilling. On his June 4th radio program, Beck promoted The Red Network by Elizabeth Dilling. The Red Network is rife with racism and anti-Semitism. Dilling's book contains numerous passages that espouse anti-Semitism and racism. At various points throughout the book, Dilling attacked "racial inter-mixture" as a communist plot, referred to "un-Christianized" "colored people" as "savages," called Hinduism and Islam "debasing and degrading," and blamed Nazi Germany's anti-Semitism on "revolutionary Russian Jews." Dilling was also a Nazi sympathizer. She visited Germany in the late 1930s, and attended Nazi party meetings and praised Adolf Hitler's leadership. She also spoke at rallies hosted by U.S. Nazi organizations after the outbreak of World War II. Following the war, she leveled anti-Semitic attacks against several U.S. presidents, calling Dwight Eisenhower "Ike the Kike," attacking Richard Nixon for his "service to the synagogue," and calling John F. Kennedy's New Frontier program the "Jew frontier." Beck even refused to apologize for promoting her and her book. On June 7th, Beck briefly reacted to the controversy surrounding his approving citation of Dilling's work, but refused to apologize for promoting her hateful work on the air. Instead, Beck attacked "the left" for calling him "a Jew-loving Nazi sympathizer." Okay, after reading that, does that sound like a new civil rights leader to you. It sure looks like a lying racist right-wing idiot to me, which is the exact opposite of what a civil rights leader should be. Some Great Beck Insanity On Religion & 8-28 By: Steve - August 28, 2010 - 8:30am On his lame radio show Beck attacked Obama and all progressives by saying this: "When you pervert the Gospel of Jesus Christ, you are evil." What's funny is that when Republicans use religion that is an honorable thing, but when Democrats use religion somehow that's evil. In this audio Beck tells his listeners that they have to show up to the 8-28 rally to be part of an American miracle. Yeah if by miracle you mean insane far right political rally, I agree. Here is my question, after spending 3 months begging people to come to your political rally, if they then show up how the hell is that a miracle. A miracle is an unexpected event attributed to divine intervention that defies the laws of nature. And when you plan an event, then promote it for months and months, you do not have a miracle, dumb ass. Beck Claims God Gave Him Good Rally Weather By: Steve - August 27, 2010 - 8:30am Now this is getting ridiculous, Beck is going God crazy. Now he claims the good weather for Saturday is a gift from God, and that God is smiling down on him and his rally. Are you kidding me, God would probably hate Beck and 90% of the far right stooges who are going to his stupid rally. I wonder if God would support Beck calling our President a racist, the same racist statement that got 100 advertisers to drop his show. And btw, it's fricking August, it is sunny and nice weather almost every day, including yesterday and the day before. It's not like it rained every day for a week, then suddenly cleared up Saturday and the sun came out, it's been nice weather all week moron. Yeah we have sunshine in August, it's a miracle from God, NOT! Beck Calls 8-28 Rally An American Miracle By: Steve - August 27, 2010 - 8:00am Here is my question, how can it be a miracle when it has not even happened yet. And it's not a miracle when a group of right-wing people show up to hear other right-wing people speak. It's called a political rally, and he does not even have the balls to call it a political rally, which it is. Here are some other things Beck has called it: Beck: 8-28 will be "a defibrillator to the heart of America." Beck says his 8-28 rally will be "the Woodstock of the next generation." Beck: 8-28 is "the anti-Woodstock." Ummmm, Glenn, How can it be the new woodstock and also be the anti-woodstock, answer that smart guy. Beck: "Maybe in a 100 years from now or 200 years from now ... this will be remembered as the moment America turned the corner." Beck claims his rally will "grow the next George Washington and Abraham Lincoln." Beck: "I really, truly believe" that 8-28 "will be remembered in American history as the turning point." Beck claims "the Capitol will fix itself if we just stand between Washington and Lincoln and try to be those people." Beck: Restoring Honor rally "is a shockwave." Beck: It was "divine providence" that 8-28 rally is on the anniversary of Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I have a dream" speech. Beck: At 8-28 rally, we will "pick up Martin Luther King's dream that has been distorted." Beck says his 8-28 rally will "reclaim the civil rights movement." Beck: "What is going to happen on 8-28 will be a miracle." Beck: 8-28 rally "will be indelibly marked" on your children. Beck: 8-28 "will be life-changing." Beck: An 8-year-old who attends rally will 20 years later say, "That's when my feet were put on a path." Wow, earth to Glenn Beck, even if you get 50,000 or even 100,000 right-wing idiots to show up to this fraud of a rally, nobody will remember it a month from now, let alone 20, 50, 100, or 200 years from now. Because you are an insane right-wing fool, and anyone with half a brain knows it. It's Official: Glenn Beck Is A Certified Lunatic By: Steve - August 26, 2010 - 8:00am Here are 2 audio clips from the Glenn Beck radio show that prove he is insane. In the first one he claims that if you have faith in God you will buy gold. Then in the 2nd one he says he is not writing a big speech for the dishonest 8-28 rally in case God wants to talk. Wow, give me a fricking break. If God were here he would hate Glenn Beck, and not want anything to do with his crazy, corrupt, lying ass. Beck is using the God talk to get people to buy gold, and to promote his lame rally, if that's not as low and pathetic as you can go, what is. Beck: "Only writing a few bullet points" for speech "so I don't get in the way of the spirit in case he wants to talk." Beck: If you "put your faith" in God, "I ask you to look at gold." And btw, Beck claims he will get about 300,000 people at his rally, yeah he will, and I'm Elvis too. This Glenn Beck 8-28 Rally Looks Dishonest By: Steve - August 24, 2010 - 9:00am I thought I would look into some details of the Saturday 8-28 rally Glenn Beck is having in Washington, and I found some things that are in a word, shady looking. If you go to the website (www.glennbeck.com/828/) and scroll down you see that Beck claims to be doing the rally to raise money for the Special Operations Warrior Foundation. It says this: Every day service personnel risk their lives to protect our country. It is through the support of non-profit organizations like the Special Operations Warrior Foundation (SOWF) that the families of these service members are taken care of in the event of an accident or loss of life. Learn more about the SOWF today by visiting www.specialops.orgBut then below that Beck tells people to send donation to this address: SOWFSo here is the shady part, that address is for Glenn Beck, he is in New york, and he works for Mercury Radio Arts. While the Special Operations Warrior Foundation is in Tampa Florida, and on their donation page it says send your donations to them in Florida. But that's not all, on the glennbeck.com/828 website is also has a link to buy t-shirts that takes you to the Glenn Beck store, and it also has this notice at the very bottom of the main page. The purchase of Restoring Honor Rally merchandise is not a donation to SOWF, but all net proceeds from the sale of Restoring Honor Rally merchandise is being donated to the Special Operations Warrior Foundation. All contributions made to the Special Operations Warrior Foundation (SOWF) will first be applied to the costs of the Restoring Honor Rally taking place on August 28, 2010. All contributions in excess of these costs will then be retained by the SOWF.Notice it does not say ALL proceeds from the sale of merchandise will be donated to the SOWF. It says the NET PROCEEDS will be donated. Notice that it also says All contributions made to the Special Operations Warrior Foundation (SOWF) will first be applied to the costs of the Restoring Honor Rally. This is a scam folks, because Beck is using their name (SOWF) to raise money to pay for his political rally. And then if, and that's a big if, any money is left over they will donate it to the SOWF. So if they raise a million dollars, and the rally cost a million dollars the SOWF gets nothing. But Beck gets his rally either way, which is a scam, if not borderline illegal, or at least unethical. Now as far as I can tell the SOWF is a valid military charity, but you should check them out yourself before you decide to give them money. And I sure as hell would not donate any money to them through Glenn Beck, or Mercury Radio Arts. What you should do if you plan to donate money to them is do it directly, and forget the dishonest and misleading Beck 8-28 rally. Because then you will know they actually get the money. If you donate through the Beck website they might not get a dime of it. Beck is basically using their name to fund his rally, then he claims it is not a political rally, and only after they raise the money to pay for the rally will the SOWF get a donation, and they might not get a dime. Which is just flat out misleading, because if you do not read the fine print you would think all the money is going to the SOWF, and you would be wrong. Because they only get the money left over after the rally is paid for, if there is anything left over at all. I am pretty sure what he is doing is technically legal, but it sure is shady, misleading, and just wrong. And notice that Beck does not mention any of this, or O'Reilly, or Fox News. Nobody reports these details, which is another red flag. As far as I know I am the only person who is reporting this, which is sort of shocking. Beck: Obama To Force Doctors To Do Abortions By: Steve - August 20, 2010 - 8:00am This is so ridiculous it's laughable, and it's just another example of what a massive right-wing liar Glenn Beck is. He basically makes a living lying about what President Obama and the Democrats are doing, and virtually everything he says is either spin, or a flat out lie. Glenn Beck falsely claimed that President Obama wants to rescind a Bush regulation so that "doctors can't refuse to" perform abortions. In fact, even without the regulation, federal law prohibits public officials from requiring recipients of public funds to perform abortions. On the August 17th Glenn Beck show, Beck misrepresented the Obama administration's reported intention to get rid of a Bush regulation to falsely assert that the administration "would like to force doctors who believe abortion is the equivalent -- the equivalence of murder" to perform abortions. He added that according to Obama, "it's totally cool to go forward with a mosque run by a potentially radical nutjob, and it's not -- doctors can't refuse to do procedures that they believe is murder." And now the facts: On February 27, 2009, CNN.com reported that "The Obama administration plans to reverse a regulation from late in the Bush administration allowing health-care workers to refuse to provide services based on moral objections, an official said Friday." The regulation in question had been issued December 19, 2008, effective January 20, 2009 -- the day of President Obama's inauguration. Rescinding the Bush regulation will not force doctors to perform abortions, because they are already protected by federal law. Federal law, prohibits public officials from requiring recipients of public funds to perform abortions or sterilizations in violation of their religious or moral beliefs. And, the federal law also prohibits entities receiving public funds from discriminating against personnel who refuse to perform those procedures for those reasons. And the reason Obama wants to get rid of the Bush regulation, is because the regulation was written so broadly that it could allow workers to decline to participate in many other types of sensitive medical procedures -- from blood transfusions to end-of-life care. And in parts of the country with few medical providers, those refusals could put patients at risk. The rule was so broad that even a cashier at Walgreens or CVS could refuse to provide medication for somebody if the cashier decided they have a religious objection. Funny how Beck never mentioned any of that. How would you like it if you went to get your prescription at Walgreens, and the cashier says I can not sell that to you because of moral reasons. Now that would be ridiculous, and that is why Obama wants to get rid of the crazy regulation passed by George W. Bush. It has nothing to do with forcing doctors to do abortions, zero. Beck Lying & Begging For 8-28 Rally Crowds By: Steve - August 16, 2010 - 8:00am Now this is just sad, but also pretty funny. Beck is so desperate to get people to come to his ridiculous 8-28 rally in Washington he has to lie about hotel rooms, and beg people to come, he says sleep in your car if you have to. Beck: "Sleep in your car. I'm not kidding you, sleep in your car" Then he claims there is a lack of hotel rooms, so when hardly anyone shows up he can say there were no hotel rooms for them to stay in, or the crowd would have been much bigger. He also went on some crazy rant about they are the baby Jesus, which was really strange. And btw, I just did a quick search on Orbitz and found plenty of hotel rooms for that day. I also went to Hotels.com to see what's available for that weekend, and it said 506 hotels rooms were available. So when Beck says the crowd was so small due to a lack of hotel rooms, remember that he is lying. Beck Caught Lying About Jobs Bill Debt By: Steve - August 12, 2010 - 9:00am This is a great example of why you should never believe a word Glenn Beck says, ever. Glenn Beck devoted almost the entire first segment of his Wednesday show to his outrage over the passage of the Educations Jobs and Medicaid Assistance Act, proving that he can dream up outrage out of thin air, and demonstrating why he should not be trusted to report on anything. His problem with the bill, which provides $26 billion to states to help them preserve teacher jobs and pay for Medicaid, is that Washington won't admit that they have a problem with spending. He declared that the day Washington politicians admit they have a problem with spending will be "the day that monkeys fly out of my butt." Then, showing the national debt on screen, Beck suggested that in passing bills like this one, Washington will "make our children a slave" to debt. He later claimed that "American taxpayers, you, had to shell out another 26 billion dollars" in order save the teachers' unions that won't make concessions. Twenty-six billion dollars would be a lot to add to this year's deficit, except that this bill doesn't add to the deficit. According to the Congressional Budget Office, the bill would actually REDUCE the deficit by $1.4 billion over a decade. Then you might ask how the bill can manage to provide $26 billion in state aid while reducing the deficit. By closing tax loopholes, and ending the increased aid to the food stamp program provided by the stimulus bill. Minutes later, Beck complained about some of those very same cuts that help the bill reduce the deficit. So Beck spent more than 20 minutes ranting and raving about the cost of a bill that reduces the deficit. A bill that has a cost offset, so it cost nothing to the American taxpayers, and actually saves the taxpayers $1.4 billion dollars over 10 years. That is just how dishonest Beck is, everything he said was a lie. Beck Attacks Obama For Playing Basketball By: Steve - August 10, 2010 - 10:00am This is how ridiculous Glenn Beck is, Beck reported that President Obama played basketball with LeBron James. But he went on to imply that it shows how out of touch Obama is, because he played basketball with multi-millionaires, instead of just regular folks. Beck reported it as if Obama just played some basketball with LeBron, Rose, etc. for no other reason, except to play with multi-millionaires. But that is a total lie, because it was a basketball game to entertain wounded troops. Here is what actually happened, which is nothing like what Beck reported. President Obama pulled together an informal dream team of current and former basketball superstars. But only a few people got to see it. LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Carmelo Anthony and other NBA all-stars joined Obama in Washington to entertain wounded troops. They were joined by some retired legends, including Bill Russell and Magic Johnson. And the game was played for a group of "wounded warriors" who were injured in action, and participants in the White House's mentoring program. It took place at a gym inside Washington's Fort McNair, a short drive from the White House. And he was attacked for this by Glenn Beck and quite a few people at Fox News. This is what Beck does, turn a great event into something it was not, simply to smear Obama for political reasons. Now if a Republican President had done the same thing, Beck would report how great it was, and what a great man he is for doing that. But when a Democratic President does it, Beck misrepresents the entire event, and attacks him. Beck: Obama Vacation Costing You 75K A Day By: Steve - August 10, 2010 - 9:30am Now this is a good one, Beck claims the Michelle Obama vacation is costing the taxpayers $75,000 a day. Which is just ridiculous, and a flat out lie. And now the facts, something Beck has no clue about. LA Times: Personal expenses, such as hotel rooms and meals, are being paid for by the Obamas. The Los Angeles Times reported on August 5 that the Obamas are paying for their hotel rooms: One White House official said Obama had a small group of friends and minimal staff on the trip, and said personal expenses, such as hotel rooms and meals, were being paid for by the Obamas.CNN: White House says Obama vacation "is a private trip and is being paid for that way." On the August 6 edition of CNN's Rick's List, Brooke Baldwin reported that "it is a private trip and is being paid for that way." This whole thing is ridiculous right-wing garbage to make the Obamas look bad. Beck, Limbaugh, and the rest of the right are doing this for political gain, and they even lie about it. Notice that not one of these a-holes ever said a word about Laura Bush when she took a vacation. And btw, the right-wing spin doctor Dana Perino even dismissed the Obama Spain trip critics, she said this on Fox & Friends: The First Lady "should be off limits, especially if she's paying her own way." Awesome Hate Mail From A Beck Loving Idiot By: Steve - August 8, 2010 - 8:30am Notice how she says she has not even looked at my website, and yet, she still claims I do not know what I am talking about, and that Glenn Beck tells the truth I don't want to hear. And about all I can say to that is wow are you stupid Vicky. Subject: you suckNote to right-wing idiot: I have proven Beck lies, over and over a million times, but of course this moron did not see any of that proof, because they did not even read the website. Making her a massive idiot who is in denial, when the facts are right in front of you. Beck is not only a liar, he is a massive liar, and that is a fact. Beck Goes Even Deeper Into The Gutter By: Steve - August 5, 2010 - 8:00am Okay, if I said to you that there was a man on radio and tv who claims to be a journalist, who asked if someone could tell him if there has even been a President who has had more flies land on his face than Obama, you would probably think I was kidding. And you would be wrong, because that is exactly what Glenn Beck said. He asked if someone could find out if there has even been a President who has had more flies land on his face than Obama. Not only is it not a valid news story, it's insulting, and racist as hell. Beck is saying that because Obama is a black man, he has more flies land on him than any other white Presidents. And he wants someone to check it out, even if it was a joke, it's still insulting and racist. Because you know he would never say that about a white President. And what kind of idiot uses his time on a national news talk radio show to say stupid and racist garbage like that, Glenn Beck that's who. Just when you think Beck can not get any lower, he goes lower. In fact, he should change his middle name to scum, because that is what he is, total racist right-wing scum. Glenn Beck Still Talking Riots & Revolution By: Steve - August 3, 2010 - 9:00am Even after driving some of his viewers to violence, or attempted violence, Glenn Beck is still spewing out right-wing spin about riots and revolution. And crazy Beck claims he is not doing anything wrong, proving that he is just in denial. Telling lies to make people mad at one political party, that he knows will cause some of them to be violent, especially when he uses words like riot and revolution, is wrong. And that's not all, he tells people to get a bat and fight, arm yourself, the revolution is coming, and on and on. This implants an idea into their heads, from Beck, and he knows it. He wants to get them mad so they will get out and vote this November, and if a few wingnuts go off the rails and kill someone, he don't care. All he cares about is using fear and scare tactics to fire up the wingnuts, and to hell with anything that might happen because of it.
