During a discussion of some already controversial statements made by Democratic strategist, Bob Beckel, a very heated exchange developed involving Beckel and Atlas Shrugs publisher, Pamela Geller.
The controversy started when Bolling played a clip of Beckel's previous appearance on the show in which he stated:
"Look, at some point, I know it's sensitive here in New York and probably New Jersey, but we have to get over 9/11."
The short list of ‘non-existent terrorists' since 9/11 that Mr. Beckel must be referring to, include the Madrid train bombers, Russian train bombers, Shoe Bomber, the Lackawanna Six, Fort Hood assassin, the Virginia ‘Jihad' Network, Christmas Day bomber, Fort Dix plotters, and the Times Square bomber.
Beckel might have been feeling the stress of trying to defend such a blatantly insensitive statement, by providing a blatantly inaccurate defense, as he experienced a misogynistic meltdown directed at Geller in the middle of the segment in which he said:
"You're a woman, you better be careful about saying who I carry water for."
Beckel's appearances on FNC have been infuriating at times, but mostly for ideological reasons. He is, after all, a liberal. But he clearly crossed a line tonight with his uncharacteristically aggressive attacks on Geller. Even Arlen Specter knows that you don't start any argumentative statement with the words ‘you're a woman.'

FOX needs to fire that pig Beckel.If you need a lib, use Colmes.
I’m going to defend Morris because I’ve met him personally. I think most would be surprised at how unassuming he is in person. Also, he is one of the most chivalrous men I’ve met. It’s not everyday you meet a man with such excellent manners. He really is a gentleman. Probably the result of being away from Clinton for so long.
He just summed himself up in one sentence.
Beckel has some explaining to do. I’ve always found the Marxist water carrier tedious and annoying.
And how did you come to that conclusion if you don't mind sharing? ..inquiring minds and all.
What a hot-head, I bet he's slapped a few women around.
My money would be on Pamela to kick his ass.
These hacks like Beckel have been staged time and again by Hannity and the like, just to inflame the audience. I take their appearance as merely a weakness on the part of the host. Same with this Columbia coon that O’Reilly parades across about every three weeks to pee some new radical notion. When this trash appears, I just dial up Sponge Bob.
So how many contacted FOX about Beckel?
“...I think most would be surprised at how unassuming he is in person...”
Thanks for the inside info. Interesting!
He always looks like he is about to EXPLODE. He leans on the desk and is slovenly. He’s a jerk. Plain and simple and there again is hannity calling him his FRIEND. That surely get old.
Of all the radio guys, I like Hannity the least. He constantly plugs his concerts or whatever, and he is soft of liberal scum like McCain and others.
The true king of radio is Rush. He’s been on fire lately. Without Rush, none of the others would exist. Levin is great. Local guys on KVI in Seattle are good. But there is no one better than Rush.

If you get a chance listen to Jim Quinn out of Pittsburgh. You can listen on the internet at WPGB site. 6 am-10 am.
I actually think that he is the best of the talker with the most up to date and important info.
They have threads here on FR, The Quinn and Rose Show.
Personal observation as well as a bit of professional inside baseball.
I thought he’s supposed to be sober now; I was just assuming he destroyed too many neurons to have any inhibitions left in what he says, kinda like having a lobotomy.
No word from code pink?.
I’ll take one from Column-A and one from Column-B ... your posts are great !
Nope. It's just another card in the progressive's deck. You're just used to seeing the racist card. This is the sexist card.
Basically, it sounds like he's threatening her because he's a he and she's not.
I would have had to have asked him if it was a threat, because if it was, he could just get bent!
Threatening her?? As in, I'm going to whoop your butt? She should have laughed in his face.
Hee hee... thanks for the lift. I just calls ‘em likes I sees ‘em.
