WTH are Drudge and Beck trying to achieve? (vanity)
Vanity | 1/24/2012 | tatown

Posted on 01/24/2012 7:46:35 PM PST by tatown

The attacks by both Drudge and Beck on Newt are about as vicious as I've ever seen by either of them even on Obama. I turned off Beck some time ago due to his extreme doomer act and I'm starting to get to the point where I avoid Drudge as well. I understand that they might not be Newt fans but the force of their hatred toward him is stunning.

Drudge isn’t attacking Newt. What he always does is bring up the hottest stories on each candidate. Quite frankly , Pelosi’s statement is something that we should attack her on. She is trying to insert herself and I think that will backfire. I don’t think Drudge has shown any favoritism to Romney or others.

Not sure about your Q. My concern here is that we’re getting the brer rabbit treatment from the “republican establishment.”

“whatever you do, don’t throw me in the (Newt) briar patch, Mr (tea party) Fox. It feels like we’re being set up.

I gave up both of them looong ago. Neither of them are true conservatives - just my opinion.

It’s his web site. No one has to go there.

Drudge is not so much biased as he just picks and chooses stories that are eye-catching and fit his vision of what he wants on the site. It’s a free country.

Beck is just nuts.

A circular firing squad?

Go after Obama and we will see who we want to represent us in the general election!

Read Glenn Beck's book, “The 7: Seven Wonders That Will Change Your Life”, and you'll see that Newt's world view doesn't fit very well with Beck's extreme New Age philosophy

Yeah, Beck has jumped the shark bigtime. The question here is what exactly does Pelosi know? We know the record of what happened. Only one charge stuck and that was because his lawyer screwed up.

Beck has some agenda I don’t know if he is a total Romney sop because of the common cult they are in or not... Drudge is selling web page hits and he knows how to get them that’s all...

Hey, the guys are just trying to make a living. Right? Both betting on getting their toast buttered from somewhere that cascades butter. Drudge has been flattered or fraternized that’s for sure. Blackmail maybe?

Beck has to be making a killing off all the last days scenario, what with the generators, metal meat, aluminum bread, shell casing materials, and the myriads of other survival profiteering equipment. Oh, I forgot the GOLD buying that only the wealthy can do without actually having to go hungry for months first.

RE: Beck
Beck gave Huntsman Sr a big award for Humanity I think

Jon Huntsman Jr and Sr are related to Mitt Romney (Think from grandfather with five wives in Mexico.

The mass fortune of the Huntsman is intertwined and has been for years with Romney/Bain

Running Jr only in NH set up a “straw” candidate that kept the ABM crowd from voting for another candidate and taking the win away from Mitt.

Are you getting the picture....follow the money AND power.

Maybe because this is a free country and people have a right to question any candidate????

I like the others think Drudge is aiming for hits, but Beck in a loon. His reverse psychology and reverse roll playing on his show is a little odd to say the least. Don’t get me started on his food insurance and combat training commercials! Lol

Beck is a mormon. Romney is a mormon.

Not hard to figure out.

You'd think except Beck was for Bachmann, now Santorum is his guy. Beck on Romney "Romney scares me"

Go Santorum!

Beck is logically inconsistent when he can not see the obvious—that Romney is a liberal progressive clearly evidenced by running to the left of Ted Kennedy in Mass, and an inability to articulate and defend conservatism, as Romney doesn't really understand it.

Pelosi is simply telling us who she is scared of. Pelosi knows Newt will actually get rid of the liberal garbage is Washington, while the liberal progressive Romney will grow the horrible things Pelosi holds dear....

I listened to Beck for the first time in a month today. He strated out saying Newt was “lying” about something. I made until he said Newt was drummed out the House for ethics violations...a lie in and of itself. Ironic.
