Glenn Beck Challenges Writer to Read 'Lone Survivor' Review to Navy SEAL's Face
UPI ^ | January 15, 2014 | Evan Bleier

After she wrote a critical review of the new Mark Wahlberg film, Lone Survivor, Glenn Beck offered to fly LA Weekly reviewer Amy Nicholson to his studio in Dallas so that she could read her review to Marcus Luttrell, the former Navy SEAL on whom the movie is based.

“I mean this sincerely -- I will fly you first class,” Beck said. “I will put you up at the Four Seasons … You will dine on the finest possible food, and you will come in here and you will sit down and speak these words to Marcus Luttrell. If you have the bills to say what you just said to Marcus Luttrell and back it up, go for it.”

In her review, Nicholson described Lone Survivor as a “jingoistic snuff film” that preaches “brown people bad, American people good.”

Glenn Beck, conservative television and radio host, speaks during the Tea Party Patriot Audit the IRS rally on the grounds of the U.S. Capitol on June 19, 2013 in Washington, D.C.

"If you have the 'bills' to say what you just said to Marcus Luttrell and back it up, go for it," Beck says.

The review comes down to this one line liberal-speak.
In America these days, everything has been reduced to “brown people bad, American people good.

Usually when a liberal gets all preachy, virtiolic in righteoous indignation, it's brown versus white, exclusively. But to underscore the rampant racism run amok, the reviewer takes it a whole other notch more extreme. It's like racism is so pervasive, the browns are still losing ground.

Now it's browns versus the entire American people.

In America these days, everything has been reduced to “brown people (bad), versus American people (good).”

Why can't we all just get along? Asked in an about-to-break-down-and-cry-squeaky-high-pitched-cartoonish voice.

That Beck has some interesting and diabolically creative Machiavellian ideas... This is pure genius...

He does stuff like this and I wanna cheer and like the guy. But then he goes and screws it up with something else.

Her review was published in Houston in the “free” alternateive-weekly paper that is funded by the back page sex ads (online and in print).

More corporate liberalism.

Libtards have lots of courage preaching to the unwashed from their ivory towers, but suggest they actually CONFRONT one of the nameless unwashed about the libtards’ lofty “ideals” and the TRUE nature of libtardism is revealed for all to see...

It is TIME we start calling these liberals OUT.
If we are unafraid, they will cower like the rats
they are.

PC (politically correct) has absolutely nothing to do with truth. That would be why the “PC” moniker came into fashion.

Amy Nicholson is just a working girl, speaking PC, knee deep in pleasing effeminate men and masculine women, for a check in the mail.

It’s because she could not afford (or make the cut) into “Library Science”.

Just as I said about the Taper - Luttrell interview.
Luttrell would have a better chance of talking to and understanding a alien from Alpha Centauri than 99.999% of progressives.

How long can a house stand when half its occupants can understand nor communicate with it over half?

We have ‘brown’ people in our special forces - that includes SEALS.

Woman’s a loon.

Brown people aren’t bad, but Islamists are evil.

And 4 a year degree with an off the wall major like this tells me why these kids cannot pay their student loans. If they has a BSEE, BSAE, or many other degrees like finance and accounting-they’d have a job. Many of these kids would be far better off to learn plumbing. I have never known a broke plumber.

I understand that feeling. But that’s what allowed them to gain credibility to begin with. See the Global warming/Sierra Club nuts for a case study.

They must be mocked and humiliated at every turn. With the facts they twist and ignore. And it’s easy as hell to do. But people just don’t want to ‘offend’ and so we are where we are.

Honestly she would just call him “racist” they would go on the defensive and then be most likely at a draw per usual. That “anti-racist” crap is nothing but a fraud that actually means nothing more than anti-white for partisian purposes.
