PEOPLE ARE WATCHING THIS LUNATIC (Liberal whining about Glenn Beck effectively countering)
The Washington Monthly ^ | March 17, 2009 | Steve Benen

Posted on 03/17/2009 4:16:50 PM PDT by JSDude1

Glenn Beck, Fox News' deranged media personality, has been telling a national television audience that the Obama administration might be setting up secret "concentration camps" to lock up conservatives. The president, Beck believes, may be using FEMA in this conspiratorial drive towards "a totalitarian state."

Beck, who has already voiced his affinity for the John Birch Society, is also distributing Birchers' literature to his audiences.

If he were just some random right-wing blogger, it would be easier to laugh this off.

Future headline:

"The Obama Youth met with sever resistance", The Hope/Change youth train, bringing hope to the world, came under heavy small arms fire when it tried to recruit a church school bus onto the train. None in the church bus was harmed.

that Missouri Law-Enforcement list of “terrorist” leaning citizens..

linton's FBI also had such a list. I imagine it is being resurrected and enhanced for the present administration. Known Fundamentalist Christians and organizations (like churches)were on the list, also, as I remember.

Hussein is also saying at every opportunity that he is going to “take care” of the vets, much better than Bush did. Perhape he will add aggressive assisted suicide to their medical options.

outright lies. I Listen to his radio program and watch his show EVERY DAY. I heard someone call his show a few weeks back about the concentration camps and Glenn said he'd look into it and that he wanted to "quickly debunk this and move on". I have yet to hear back about said concentration camps.

If Glenn is distributing the book, The 5000 Year Leap - the book the libtard calls into question - I have to call glenn and complain cause I ain't gotten mine yet. Back in reality world, he just recommends you read it. Given the recommendation causes such apoplexy in this libtard communist, the book is probably well worth the read, though I haven't gotten there yet.

I'm watching The Lunatic right now. I've programmed my DVR to record it every day.

I hope the ratings people have some way of factoring the number of people who tape Beck's show.

I enjoyed his "You're Not Alone" special this past Friday. Except for the crying. I fast-forwarded past that.

Glenn Beck is saying aloud what many of us have been thinking for years.

[I guess I will have to start listening to Beck.]

He also has a TV show on FOX with awesome ratings. That is what has the liberals so upset!

I think the legal term for that is “manslaughter”.

“He has hit a nerve and the left wing media knows it.”

Yep, he advocates following the Constitution and the ideals of the Founding Fathers!

Imagine the consternation of the media and the current government!

He did a pretty good imitation of Barney Franks today. I listen to Barney Franks and i wonder why on earth the voters have not retired that guy. Just the way he talks makes me think he’s not fit for the job.

Tell that lib, that under Obama, the only way a wounded American soldier can get free medical care is have his fellow soldiers remove his helmet and replace it with a sombrero before they cart him into the hospital.

"Keep talking Benan. Beck’s numbers are going up"

His Last FIRDAY numbers (IIRC) were triple Chrissy Mathews AND Keith Olberwoman's added together.

“I wish Beck were on at a time we could watch. He’s fascinating. He would stomp BOR’s ratings if he were on later.”

I second that!

Living in the Central time zone puts his show on at 4:00pm and not home from work yet.

FOX should move Glen to BOR’s spot, keep Hannity where he’s at, and BOR to Greta’s spot and do away wit her. Except to do Palin interviews.

I can wish! At least that weasel face Colmes is history.

Funny, that ties to radical organizations is all of a sudden an important issue when it concerns a radio host, but for a Presidential candidate, not so important....

“...haven’t retired that guy?”

Remember in Massachusetts: “All Politics Is Local” - the title of Speaker Tip O’Neil’s book.

Barney is their guy, or girl... ah, whatever!
