Glenn Beck on Tuesday tore into Congressman Chris Stewart (R-Utah) over his decision to vote for John Boehner as speaker of the House, saying he believes Stewart who has been his friend for years is losing his soul.
Beck asked the congressman whether it was Boehners decision to fund Obamacare, his support of the CRomnibus bill, or his decision to continually delay any action in opposing President Barack Obamas agenda that garnered his support.
Stewart said the allegations against Boehner arent true, and continued: I think in the time we have here, we cant go back and review the last two, or four, or six years of votes you may or may not agree with him on. But the bottom line is this: I think we should be celebrating today, and its discouraging to me that instead this has become such a divisive day. We had a great election in November. For the first time weve got a united front where we can oppose President Obama.
We have a united Congress, and theyre giving the green light to the president on amnesty, Beck said. Theyre giving a green light on the CRominbus thats a trillion dollars, Chris!
Beck reversed and analogized the situation, asking Stewart what he would do if he found Beck in a brothel, insisting that he wasnt doing anything wrong and was just friends with all the women.
Stewart laughed. Well, it depends, Glenn. How attractive are the young ladies in the brothel, right?
Beck shook his head. You told, us, Chris, to come down on you like a bag of bricks if we ever felt you were losing your soul. This is bag of bricks time. We think youre losing your soul.
Stewart said he appreciated Becks words, but remained firm in his decision, saying he thinks Beck may have misunderstood some of his previous stances.
I do think that there are times where, you and I agree, that youve indicated, that I havent agreed with you, Stewart said. I think youve indicated that Ive said or implied things that I certainly havent, and I never have. And I think you and I agree on far more than we disagree.
It is the game, Chris, Beck said heatedly. Youre playing the game. Stop playing the game!
You dont think we can do better, Chris? Becks co-host Stu Burguiere added. You dont think we can do better than John Boehner?
Listen, gentlemen, who do you suppose that we should support here? Stewart retorted.
All three immediately said Texas Congressman Louie Gohmert would make a far better speaker than John Boehner.
Do you know how many votes Louie Gohmert will get? Stewart said. As much as I like Louie, hes not the person to lead the house right now.
But John Boehner is? Beck said.
We can agree to disagree on that, Stewart remarked.
Beck told Stewart that people are done with the kind of games he is playing, and that he will not be re-elected if he continues playing politics against the interests of the American people.
Glenn, I disagree with you, Stewart said. I think that by 2016, when the American people see what the Republicans have been trying to do for the last years, when we now have allies in the Senate who will help us to do those things in the next two years, were going to be able to move forward on the REINS Act, on reforming Obamacare, or eliminating Obamacare
I dont believe you, Beck said flatly. Theres no evidence. Youve never done it, Chris! Its never happened!
Beck concluded by saluting Stewart for having the courage to come on the show, but reiterated that he is worried about the mans soul.
They’re not competent to work at McDonald’s. That’s why they’re in politics.
Both parties are against us now. They want to do the exact same things. So they aren’t representing us.
thanks for the kind invitation
and yes
it would amaze me that any woman could be drunk enough, ugly enough or desperate enough for a green card to wed you - you are opinionated but can’t back up your drivel - arrogant and have an abusive streak that would, given time, be directed at a spouse
Time to go Galt?
Thats it?
At least other post pictures and stuff.
The GOP has definitely lost me for good. Today’s vote really frosts mine and seals the deal for me.
Pfewwwww!
Not the exact same things — as I said, there are some marginal differences — but mostly the same things.
Well, even the so-called “conservatives” who believe as long as they vote the right way on ‘God/Guns/Abortion’, ect - while selling us out via trade agreements and immigration, and voting for every social program they can isn’t much better.
past time.
I just did my taxes..
This year, mini galt. cutting way back. no reason to continue to feed the beast.
Welcome to Puristville. Glad to have you.
Oh, they’ll “oppose” everything as long as they know that Obama will veto all their “changes.”
I cringe at my potential exposure. How ever shall I cope? (clutches pearls and sobs)
It may come to that,the 2016 election will be the determining factor.
Correct. That is to keep their bases in line. Two tracks with the same destination.
When you find someone working as hard for our country as Mark Levin, be sure to let us all know, ok?
You sure have a thing for pearls, eh?
When he stands by his word, you let me know, OK? Because I’m tired of empty promises and insinuations.
Props for Beck (I don’t say that often anymore).
you survived your mug shot in the paper from the bath house raid - you'll be over this in no time
