Glenn Beck: The GOP Are ‘Full of Crap’ ‘Cowards’ And ‘This Destroys Bush’s Legacy’
Mediaite ^ | June 28th, 2012 | Jon Bershad

Glenn Beck made no attempt to hide his feelings. In fact, he launched into an absolutely epic rant, furiously condemning not just the Supreme Court, but also the Republican Party and the entire mainstream conservative movement.

Beck promoted the upcoming FreePAC event, saying that today’s result just furthered his frustration with regular conservative groups. He told listeners that he was sick of going to CPAC where he can speak out against progressives, get applause from the crowds, and then be betrayed by the “cowards” in charge who are “won’t come out and tell you what they really are”; “covert progressives.”

One such person who got called out was former President George W. Bush, the president who appointed Chief Justice John Roberts.

Beck went on to mock the notion that there is no litmus test for appointing Supreme Court justices, imagining a scenario where he’d ask potentials if they, for example, were ok with abortion and, if they didn’t answer instantly, he’d send them right out the door.

He also talked about Mitt Romney, warning the presidential hopeful that he “wouldn’t have jack support” in the country if he got into the White House and dared try to be “Mr. Bail Out” or have “a little RomneyCare.”

Glenn Beck and Freedom Works created a group to rival CPAC called FreePac. It sounds like they will hold an event soon.

John Roberts IS the Bush legacy. He is doing the Bush Family’s bidding. The Family is DEVOTED to big government and making sure their pet Pedro can get over the border and sign up for welfare.

I know how he feels but I still stand firm in the face of jello-fication all around.

Not to mention free healthcare courtesy of the American taxpayer.

I don’t normally like Beck but I do agree with him on this. Sick of Washington. Sick of Bush’s stupid legacy of helping destroy republicanism. They are all liars and cowards. They huff and puff but never blow the house down. They do nothing but compromise and now today the compromising is over and all I can say is welcome to Amerika the land of great big taxation and the destroyed dreams of millions.

The two-party concept is just that; a concept. Vested interests on both sides will push through whatever legislation that will benefit them and their handlers the most. Politicians learned long ago to not bite the hand that feeds them, and they make good lap dogs as a result. Both parties are equally guilty of this. If you want so see who is behind the curtain pulling the strings, just follow the money.

Well, to be honest, Bush’s legacy wasn’t much of anything to begin with.

That’s pretty much what he says. Inaccurate headline. Read on.

We can at least hope this accelerates the financial apocalypse to come and end it...

It’s too bad it has gotten this out of hand now. Obamacare was not even written as a tax and now it was re-written as one. Even Bill O’Reilly is ranting about the ruling on a phone call into his show hosted by Laura Ingraham.

Bill is even hot about the Dems walking out on Holder’s contempt vote. He says they walked out on Brian Terry’s family and every other American. The Dems will do what they want not obey laws or tell you the truth is what walking out meant.

Beck makes good points....but he is also part of the problem in some aspect

Many conservatives wanted Obama Eligibility to be addressed..but Beck sided with the Liberal MSM and the Liberal GOP in attacking the Eligibility people...even resorting to the name calling from the Liberal groups

Also, FreedomWorks head Dick Armey is a supporter of Illegal Alien Amnesty and for further integration w Mexico and Canada. I still remember Milton Friedman blasting Armey for pushing NAFTA years ago because Friedman correctly called it “Managed Trade”

It may take for Real Conservatives to walk from the GOP to fix the GOP. Voting and supporting Liberal GOPers is still being liberal

It’s rants like these that confuse me as to how he could support Romney.

Does he believe that Romney will be more “republican” than Bush? (I can’t even use the word conservative in that sentence)

The events and feelings of today were conceived and born in Mass.
