glenn beck says 'i dont think shes the answer for texas'

911 questions begin at minute 6:17

--------------------------

Debra Medina self-destructs on Glenn Beck radio show Texas gubernatorial candidate Debra Medina appeared on the Glenn Beck radio show this morning and made a lot of news when she wouldn't take a position on whether the US government was behind the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center.

Beck: "Rick, I think you and I could French kiss right now," he said of Texas's current governor, Rick Perry who is running for re-election.

"Wow," Beck continued. "Wow. The fastest way back to four percent," he said of Medina's one-time standing in the polls. A recent survey showed her only four points behind Hutchison with 24 percent of the vote.

What I meant to say was...

Medina quickly put out a statement clarifying what she meant, which just so happens not to sound anything like what she said.

"I was asked a question on the Glenn Beck show today regarding my thoughts on the so-called 9/11 truth movement. I have never been involved with the 9/11 truth movement, and there is no doubt in my mind that Muslim terrorists flew planes into those buildings on 9/11. I have not seen any evidence nor have I ever believed that our government was involved or directed those individuals in any way. No one can deny that the events on 9/11 were a tragedy for all Americans and especially those families who lost loved ones."

So how does Glenn Beck square his french-kissing with Rick Perry who continues to push for a Trans-Texas Corridor?? Or Kay Hutchison continuing support for private toll roads if she becomes governor?? Or Rick Perry's slick move to force Gardasil vaccines on young girls??

Glenn Beck is a horses' ass and a complete fraud.

You are way too kind, my friend; way, way too kind.

Well, that was an ambush if I've ever seen one. It was a question/set up likely given to him by someone who works directly or indirectly for either Perry or Hutchinson. And is looks like Beck is still doing his level best to torpedo her campaign and to be honest, he's probably succeeded. Hutchinson and Perry are going to send out their acolytes to do their dirty work in the media and she'll have to continue defending and defining her position on this. It will be interesting to see what the polls have to say after the fact. My guess is she will drop quite a bit. The good news is, is this is not a national election. Millions probably heard the interview and immediately wrote her off because of Beck and fortunately most of them are outside the state of Texas. The only thing that matters is how Texans viewed this. If the YouTube comments are any indication, Texans like her even more now.

I hate this had to come at her expense, but this is a wake up call to those like Medina who are running for office that they'd better be prepared to answer this question and expect ambushes if they get on any national media outlet like Beck in the future. It sounded to me like she was caught off guard by the question, but I thought she answered it pretty well.

The only place I hear/see Beck anymore is on YouTube. It's one step forward and 10 steps backward with him. He's had good info about the Fed and he does this. Then I'm reminded why I quit listening to him in the first place. Oh yeah- read the sig line...

The question wasn't the problem, her answer was the problem.

Medina's answer was only "a problem" to those who want the rubes to forget nagging unanswered questions about 9/11 as well as their discomfort about the gubment's whitewash official explanation.

Medina is running for elected office. She - unlike Hutchison and Hairdo Perry - recognizes that elected office means that she should be RESPONSIVE to the concerns of the electorate and one of those gnawing concerns appears to be that 9/11 needs to be re-investigated. Medina's answer is reflective of the public's discontent with the story presented by gubment.

As I noted in msg #70, just 4 years ago when the NYT and CBS did a poll regarding 9/11, only SIXTEEN PERCENT of Americans believed the gubment's official story.

Medina's position is in line with the majority of Americans, including Texans.

Beck is a flame throwing talking head entertainer. His ratings depend on generating controversy. In this case the controversy Beck created has actually generated good publicity for Medina. Not exactly what Beck had planned on happening, though he has no room to complain because the Medina controversy has also given a boost to his ratings. I don't watch or listen to Beck often. On the occasion I catch him on my car radio, he's actually kind of mesmerizing - like a goofy bowling ball in a china shop. His ratings are high, not because listeners agree with him, but rather because Beck is unpredictable. Medina got herself a ton of free publicity by being a guest on his show and handling herself in poised, direct, no BS manner.

How can Beck scream about "questioning" authority on every issue except Obama's Birth Cert or 9-11 ???

Is he an Obama supporter ??? I've listened to him for a long time and I'd say he IS an Obama supporter to a certain extent (as a right gatekeeper).

By that, I mean Obama was the selection this past election cycle and the so- called conservative talk pundits did their jobs by getting rid of Ron Paul and keeping the likes of John McNeedsaCane in the race.

We need to get the Truther stigma turned around.

I am proud to want to learn the truth wherever it is to be found.

I try to be truthful and honest in all my affairs.

Is there anyone here who believes differently?

Thanks.

I don't listen to Beck often enough to answer your questions with any authority.

I will say this though. I personally would never associate myself with the Birther or 9/11 Truther movements. Both have been corrupted by disinformation agents. Look who is a leading figure in the Birther movement - a dentist turned lawyer former real estate agent and full fledged Zionist, Orly Taitz. Shish. Orly Taitz has damaged the credibility of the Birther movement beyond repair.

Read this haaretz interview with Orly the Magic Lawyer and you'll see what I mean:

www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/1108 110.html

Orly Taitz: Obama policies are 'clear and present danger to Israel':The driving force behind the 'birther' movement has found her star is rising in Israel.

As for the Truther movement, here's a website that shows how the Truther movement has also been irreparably compromised.

www.truthmove.org/content/disinformation/

I'm not justifying Beck's cheap shot baiting of Dr. Paul and Medina. But I am saying that I can understand why Beck has not aligned himself with Truthers or Birthers. I wouldn't either. And it has nothing to do with being afraid to question authority. It has more to do with common sense and protecting one's career from being tainted by clearly "damaged goods."

Anyways, I think Medina handled Beck's questions perfectly. She stated that questions remain unanswered about 9/11 - which is fact - Medina's response mirrored the 86% of Americans who disbelieve the gubment's official story - and she did not bite Beck's bait by going on at length about what those questions might be. She answered his question directly and then matter-of-factly pointed out to Beck that his focus of questions had veered off topic because he said the interview was supposed to be about getting to know Medina's Governor campaign positions and 9/11 was outside the purview of state governors' responsibilities.
