The Attempt to Silence Glenn Beck
NoisyRoom.net ^ | 5-18-2010 | Terresa Monroe-Hamilton

Posted on 05/19/2010 1:59:32 PM PDT by Whenifhow

In a blatant attack to silence Glenn Beck, New York Congressman, Weiner (D-NY) is attacking Goldline, a sponsor of the Glenn Beck Show on Fox and on the radio. Weiner claims that Beck and Goldline are profiting from people’s fears and driving up the price of gold. This is a ridiculous and stupid claim since Beck does not have the funds or clout or will to subvert the gold market. And Goldline does not physically affect the worldwide gold market with their buying and selling. They also fully disclose how much of a profit they make off of buying and selling gold which is entirely on the up and up. But if you are looking for someone who could and probably does have something to do with the gold and stock markets, look at George Soros. But of course, the politicians and the media won’t – they are only interested in hunting Beck in a modern-day McCarthy-like witch hunt through the use of Congress. And if they can’t get directly at Beck, they’ll take down his sponsors.

From the Politico:

A Weiner aide forwards his advisory, headed, “‘Goldline’ Rips Off Consumers, Profits Off Public Fears, Likely Violates Federal Law.”

“The company has formed an unholy alliance with conservative pundits to drive a false narrative and play off public fears in order to sell its products,” says the release. Coming soon to MSNBC…

If you are looking for those that actually profit from fear mongering, you better look to Congress and the White House and all their stimulus fraud. And take a hard look at those behind the Chicago Climate Exchange: Al Gore, George Soros, Maurice Strong and Joel Rogers. All have axes to grind and lots and lots of money, power and influence.

These guys must truly fear Beck. They can’t refute him at all or fight the facts he presents because he tells the truth. The left is trying to silence those who speak against them – first they came for Beck…

This isn’t the first attack on Beck. Oh no… Obama’s minister and adviser, Jim Wallis has also attacked Beck and sponsored a boycott to attack Beck’s sponsors. Ex-Green Czar Van Jones also launched a similar attack against Beck. So there has been attack after attack after attack coming from the White House and going after Glenn Beck because he is exposing their agenda and corruption. Now they are trying to use the legal system against him and his sponsors. And don’t forget that Media Matters is also going after Beck’s sponsors – their backer: George Soros.

Will no one stand up out there in the press? What about you businesses out there that see what is going on here? Will you let the elites, the progressives continue to hound one of the few voices that is telling us the truth? Come on, make a stand – get a backbone… If you can, move your advertising to the Glenn Beck show and show Americans you won’t stand for this type of dictatorial persecution.

Make no mistake, this won’t slow Beck, not one bit… He’ll become more and more popular every time these thugs attack him. I guarantee it. This will blow up in their faces. Beck won’t be shut up. If you shut him down on television, he’ll go to radio. If you shut him down on radio, he’ll go with the Internet. If you shut him down there, there will be such a groundswell that he could give speeches in town squares and hand out fliers and the word would still spread. You’ll have to take all of us down and we’d just love to see the government and Soros try.

He has no comprehension that people can make up their own minds whether they want to buy gold now or not. No one’s arm is being twisted, as Obama does.

This drives me crazy. Weiner thinks Americans are too stupid to take care of their own finances.
( I know some are too stupid). But those who buy gold are just being cautious about their finances.

The Government is worried about returning to a gold standard. It would bring their spending to a screeching halt.

It is a matter of survival to the Left and the Obamunists that they silence Beck and every other significant right-wing commentator. They cannot win any argument on factual grounds, and their traditional mouthpieces in the Old Media are shedding market share too fast to track. Watch for a sidearm attempt to reinstitute the Fairness Doctrine, or something quite like it, before they lose their Congressional hegemony on January 3, 2011.

Its not hard to imagine that if you dump three trillion dollars down the drain with nothing to show for it, there might be some impact on the dollar.

If you are looking for those that actually profit from fear mongering, you better look to Congress and the White House and all their stimulus fraud. And take a hard look at those behind the Chicago Climate Exchange: Al Gore, George Soros, Maurice Strong and Joel Rogers. All have axes to grind and lots and lots of money, power and influence.

Exactly. We've been subjected to outright fear-mongering for several years now as they try to establish an artificial market for an artificial product "carbon credits" that you have to buy from them if you want to breathe. If you want to breathe. They've subjected the whole world to their manufactured hysteria in an effort to turn themselves into trillionaires never having created anything at all.

They want to make money the old-fashioned way, by running it off of their laser-printer.

And, anyone remember when they told us that if we didn't pass the bail-out we were headed for economic collapse? No one noticed that the people screaming about collapse were the people who were leading us into collapse. Now they've got three trillion of our dollars to play with. And if we keep listening to them thats only the down payment.

Well, if Tony Weenie knows nothing else, he certainly knows how to "drive a false narrative" and "play off public fears".

After all, that's just second nature for any "NY Democratic Congressman".

New York Congressman Weiner (D-NY)...claims that Beck and Goldline are profiting from people’s fears and driving up the price of gold.

Paging Al Gore...paging Al Gore...how are your carbon-credit-trading investments coming along?

Guess they have a brighter outlook on the future than us peons.

Personally, gold could end up being as worthless as the dollar after the SHTF.

Companies like GoldLine and I think Goldline specifically, have been on AM Radio advertising for the last 2-3 decades. They dont always run ads, rather they are selective. Their usual premise for running these ads is that Gold has been through some price spurt, the smart money has made money, most of the smart people are getting out or in the process --selling, news of the money that has been made is making it to the press and business section of newspapers. The easy or smart money is over. Now its time to bring in the suckers. Run the ads and the radio spots and bring Joe SixPack and family into the gold market because the company 'Goldline' is being supported by the popular press with associated stories and the current, but mostly over, trend. Of course, the trend and the fact that the smart money has already been made is not apparent in the press or to the people who fall prey to this stuff.

Sound familar? Its what happened in the last housing cycle. Bring in all the people who can't afford a home, they are allured by the fact that the money is easy and this is always going to go up.

Currently, I can't fault anyone for pushing gold given the set of circumstances. But these companies have a tawdry past of basically pushing gold at times when it was not well advised, and only neophyte investors, simple people, would fall for their sales/advertising. Usually they run ads promoting gold on radio, long after the smart money has stopped buying gold, now its in the news about people making money in the last 6-9 months and no 'smart money people' are going to bite. So essentially the pattern has been, that companies like this advertise to get Joe SixPack and family to invest, its after the presumed peak,

I want to see how Imus plays this.

He loves Glenn Beck, but he often has Weiner on as a guest. In fact, Weiner was on with Imus, this past Monday morning.
