Glenn Beck, conspiracy nut
dallasmorningnews-Opinion Blog ^ | 9-18-09 | Rod Dreher

Posted on 09/19/2009 5:09:56 PM PDT by smokingfrog

How on earth did this crackpot get a national TV show? Watch this amazing eight-minute monologue in which Glenn Beck interprets public art, and ties together the Rockefellers, communism, fascism, corporatism, the United Nations and the Obama White House together in a grand conspiracy. If this were in a movie, you wouldn't believe it. But this is on national TV, on Fox News, every weeknight:

< video >

Where's Beck getting this garbage? Listen to this 1976 speech by Beck guru W. Cleon Skousen, in which he cites Mormon prophecy to bolster his rant against the Rockefellers, the communists, and all kinds of "secret combinations" infiltrating everything, trying to destroy the Constitution at the direction of Satan.

The “Crackpot” got the show because an absolute idiot got the presidency.

There, now, done with another lesson for the bottom of the SAT journalist.

Yep. I don’t think it’s going to work this time. Glenn Beck speaks for so many. He also is the only one doing in depth investigative journalism, instead of just repeating stuff we already know from the internet.

Beck could very well be a conspiracy nut, but that doesn’t mean he is wrong.

Just because you can't see something does not mean that it is not there. Get used to it. The eyes and ears of America are opening

I want to set the record straight, once and for all times!

THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A CONSPIRACY OF ANY SORT EVER IN THE HISTORY OF HUMANKIND! The word shouldn't even exist in any language. If my overlords have their way it will be forever outlawed, and rightfully so.

I'm looking forward to Monday's show. Andrew Breitbart (sp?) said it will have some very good info re: some group other than ACORN. That's the only hint that he gave about it.

Can someone pass along to Rod Dreher and the Dallas Morning News that Glenn Beck is a nobody, and nobody watches his show and he is a cream puff and . . . LOL and s/

“Why” in this case is a rhetorical question. What is surprising (and it is kind of heartwarming) is how pathetic this attack on Glenn Beck is.
Unfortunately no less idiot is presiding over the White House.

Glenn Beck is holding feet to the fire and it is very uncomfortable...

the thing is, he is only asking questions...

he never asked for or advocated the resignation/firing of Van Jones...

he merely asked if this is what Obama believes too?

Let’s hope he keeps asking questions and let’s all join in...

why is Rangel still not in jail, why is Pelosi not in jail for not putting Rangel in jail...

and so on and so forth!!

Viva Glenn Brck!!

The Dallas Morning News seems determined to commit suicide.

...Distract attention away from the important issues, it keeps the heat off their arses. Let ‘em rant, rational, reasonable folks dismiss that bullsh!t. For me, due to the use of mind expanding drugs in my late teens, I see right through them...
