Bob Beckel Threatens Rumsfeld With Violence
Monday, September 4, 2006 | Kristinn

Posted on 09/04/2006 7:40:00 AM PDT by kristinn

Democrat Bob Beckel threatened Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld with violence today in a discussion on the Fox News Channel about Rumsfeld's speech last week relating the war on terror to World War 2.

Beckel said if Rumsfeld weren't Secretary of Defense and had federal protection, he'd "kick the dog out of him."

Beckel joined a growing number of Democrats who have reacted viscerally to Rumsfeld's remarks, even though Rumsfeld did not single out the Democratic party nor did he name any current Democrats as appeasers.

I wonder if Beckel will join the Code Pinko stalkers outside Rumsfeld's home.

Another variant of Bush Derangement Syndrome - Rumsfeld Rabidity Response, which leads to threats of violence and sometimes foaming at the mouth.

Beckel, who challenged Hannity (or someone) last week to say whether or not libs are traitors by legal definition "undermining the President."

But IIRC, I thought Bob Beckel found Jesus after being caught in some infraction. Not very Christlike behavior, Bob!

"Beckel said if Rumsfeld weren't Secretary of Defense and had federal protection, he'd "kick the dog out of him."


And Rummy would probably bitch-slap Bob into the middle of next year.

"If if if".

The "courage" of those who know they will never actually carry out their threats never ceases to amaze me.

Go Rummy. A sure sign that he's doing the right thing by attacking, is the dims squeal, whine, snivel, play the victim and blame others.

Liberal Democraps showing their true selves. Nobody should find this surprising.

Did anybody on FoxNews call Beckoid on it, or did they let it slide?

The radical Liberals , not able to win electoral national power are evolving towards taking violencxe as a path to power. After all, it works for Islamofascists who they admire, so why won't it work for radical, liberal socialist Democrats?

Now they will resort to guns and knives , just like their Islamofascist brothers.

Bring it on you liberal POSs.

Bekel has been pretty even handed in his commentary, imho (he is not a leftwing moonbat)....but his reaction to Rummy's comments is very telling. Dems are guilty by association, according to themselves, and they are showing it in the wild-eyed reaction to Rummy's comments. Funny how the dems didn't bother to get upset about Senator Turbin and his statements calling our troops Nazi's on the senate floor. What a bunch of hypocrites.

The Defeatocrats are terrified that the American people will finally figure out that their party WANTS a US loss in the middle east. It's their route back to power.

These people are scum.

One by one, the Dems are sounding more and
more like the inept neighborhood kid who
resorts to threats of beating up the boy
with the correct answers on the test.
The frustration of always finding himself
short on smart answers to a logical argument
is just too much for some Inadequates to handle.

I am sure it wouldn't take too much research to find Freepers thrilled at "tough talk" when it goes in the opposite direction.

I don't really care, just sayin'.

They deperately do not want Rummy, or the President or Tony Snow or anyone out there just speaking the simple truth. They don't tell the truth and they simply must try to get our side to stop doing it.

He was in charge of collecting SIGNATURES for partition and he counted 150,000 DEAD PEOPLE in a past election.

Thanks for this post kristinn. OUTRAGEOUS! The 'Rats are taking it to the next level.

I don't have federal protection Bob. I invite you for a tuneup for your Rummy Rumble with me. You'd quickly become the LOSER that you are.

This is not perfectly germane to this thread, but has anyone seen anyone on CNN defend Rumsfeld's remarks? I didn't think so... At least you have to give FoxNews credit for having Bozo's like Beckel and Susan Estridge on the air as FoxNews Contributors: fair and balanced, unlike the drive-by lamestream media.

If Beckel wasn't such an old codger and so full of cr@p, I'd be tempted to think about stomping the devil out of him. But then he wouldn't be Beckel anymore.

Beckel called the telephone number listed on the Web page and made arrangements for the woman to come to his house for a $300-an-hour massage, the affidavit states. The woman, who identified herself as Tiffany, arrived at his home and he paid her $600 for two hours.

Rummy was a wrestler in college (when Princeton still had wrestling as a varsity sport) -- I'm sure he could still rip Beckel's face (or other bodily parts) off.

Beckel said if Rumsfeld weren't Secretary of Defense and had federal protection, he'd "kick the dog out of him."

It's tough to tell the difference between a spokesperson of the Democratic party and a spokesperson of the WWF.

It's amazing that they still have followers.

Wasn't Beckel the scum-bag Democrat strategist who tried to corrupt and turn a Republican elector in the 2000 campaign after it became clear, even to the Supreme Court, the George Bush had won the election?

He's had a sore paw about that ever since.

No kidding! Rummy needs to keep delivering that same speech and not change one word. To do otherwise would be simply caving in to the left's bullying by screams. We should all praise Rummy for telling it like it is and encourage him to keep it up.

I'm sure you're right, but Rummy would never threaten to kick the dog out of Beckel.

I don't even know what that means.

The worst Rummy would say is, "my goodness."

I don't remember that. I do remember that he was the one who floated the idea of "investigating" the pasts of Florida electors in 2000 in order to get some of them to vote for Gore. He tried to downplay it later, but I consider that he made the greatest threat to our electoral system in a long time.

I love it when the Dems get so incredibly stupid ON TELEVISION--right there...for all to see and hear.

What an idiot--and we're supposed to line up behind this joker's "judgment" of Rummy???
