Glenn Beck For Dummies

Glenn Beck is being characterized by the establishment as the leader of the freedom movement and yet a closer analysis of his ideology reveals that Beck is nothing more than a fake revolutionary who has supported and is pushing policies that are diametrically opposed to those embraced by true constitutionalists.

Beck and Fox News have hijacked the patriot movement and are leading conservatives and libertarians down a meaningless partisan rabbit hole in a clear attempt to neutralize genuine opposition to the big government agenda of the Obama administration.

Ok, I'll bite - for WHOM??

Should be ovious...he's a globalist shill.

"Certainly, on several issues Beck jives with populist sentiment, but on all the major fronts – war, the patriot act, warrantless spying, the bailout, and new taxes, he is nothing more than a shill for big government."

"Beck has also been aggressively pushing for new taxes in order to pay for the bailout that he supported."

"On December 4, he appeared on fellow neo-con Bill O’Reilly’s show to promote a 2 percent VAT tax to be adopted that would go directly to pay down the national debt."

"While lending support to the Tea Party movement out of one side of his mouth, out of the other Beck is promoting the exact thing they are protesting against – more taxes."

During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.

that's not what i said, Stone. my beef with Medina is that she folded. she handled Beck fine and then folded. as for Ron Paul, yes, i said that i was disappointed with his quitting with that Trotsky reference memo and his declaration that he's a republican and always will be a republican.

at any rate, i don't see what any of that has to do with Beck's treatment of them.

Yes, he's entertaining and animated, but wouldn't all that seem to indicate Beck is quite spontaneous? And it still doesn't address your presumption that he's "ill" or "will say and do anything he's paid to say and do." AT ALL. Hey, but you're entitled to believe whatever.

Beck has taken on 0bama and his Commie cadre head-on, taken on the criminal Federal Reserve, exposed Wilsonian globalism, been a contrarian pundit - and yet he's characterized by you and others (and Alex Jones) as not only part of the problem, but a puppet and gubmint shill?? Chyeah, right.

I believe he's a phony because even though he pretends to be a constitutionalist he supports wars which we got into without any authorization by Congress. That's a big strike against him. Another is pretending to be against taxes and calling for a VAT. Of course he might say that he is in favor of eliminating something else but the government doesn't work that way. If they can get enough dupes or people who are in on their scam to call for another tax they will be more than happy to add another one on without taking any off. People with good sense already know that.

And yeah, it didn't influence me favorably to see someone crying on cue. Means you can never tell when his emotions are real and when he is just acting. I suspect he is much like O'Reilly and I don't have a lot of use for him either.

Excerpted from Glenn Beck for Dummies.

During his Monday September 22 2008 TV broadcast, Beck expressed his vehement support for the bailout, stating, “The $700 billion dollars that you’re hearing about now is not only I believe necessary, it is also not nearly enough.” However, as soon as Bush left office and Obama picked up the baton and continued the same financial policy, he changed his tune and routinely attacked the bailout as an example of how socialism was taking over America.

The bailout was bad news for America under Bush just as it is under Obama, both were merely performing a transfer of wealth from America to offshore banks and giving the Federal Reserve total dictatorial control over the economy, but Beck only opposed it when Bush was out of office, proving that his opinions are not wedded to right or wrong, but to which puppet is in the White House.

A host of mainline conservative talking heads opposed the banker bailout, as did the majority of the American people, but Beck went on television and publicly supported it. This is irreconcilable with Beck being “a libertarian at heart” as he claims.

In addition, Beck aggressively attacked Ron Paul and his supporters during the election campaign when it looked like the Texan Congressman might have a real chance of winning the nomination. Beck implied that Ron Paul supporters were domestic terrorists and should be dealt with by the U.S. Army, but later tried to side with Ron Paul supporters when the infamous and discredited MIAC report echoed his own talking point that people who support Ron Paul were dangerous.

The smear came during a November 2007 show when Beck was on CNN. Alongside ex-Marxist David Horowitz, Beck demonized Ron Paul supporters, libertarians and the anti-war left as terrorist sympathizers and inferred that the U.S. military should be used to silence them, parroting a talking point that traces back to a September 2006 White House directive. When asked about the issue, Ron Paul dismissed Beck as “pretty discourteous” and a “demagogue”.

Beck has also worked with government propagandists Popular Mechanics in an effort to “debunk” the existence of internment camps in America. Beck’s hit piece consisted of setting up a straw man argument while ignoring the manifestly provable evidence that such facilities exist and that they are admittedly being prepared to house citizens during times of civil unrest.

Beck has ceaselessly attacked 9/11 truthers as dangerous extremists, echoing precisely talking points put out by Obama information czar Cass Sunstein. Just last week Beck said on his nationally syndicated radio show that there are 9/11 truth activists in the White House and they threaten the life of Obama. The fact that Beck is repeating White House talking points to demonize political adversaries of the administration proves that his image as an anti-establishment guru is a manufactured fraud.

Liberty is not a means to a higher political end. It is itself the highest political end.

People with good sense already know that.

Is it possible he's just wrong regarding some separate issues (like taxes) rather than just characterizing him as a total "phony"? Who by your definition who is helping conservatism (you're a conservative, right?) is NOT a "phony"??

But why discount all the good he's doing and his efforts toward promoting conservatism and crucify Beck? I mean, as a employer of FOX, the guy still can't divulge ALL his private thoughts and philosophies.

He came out and called 0bama a "racist" and was made to rescind it. There are limitations in his position on TeeBee, or else you wind up a Michael Savage.

And yeah, it didn't influence me favorably to see someone crying on cue. Means you can never tell when his emotions are real and when he is just acting. I suspect he is much like O'Reilly and I don't have a lot of use for him either.

My opinion of Beck - he's very talented, and yes, his emotions are pretty near the surface. I can see why some like you might think he's an actor. But he's a natural IMO.

During his Monday September 22 2008 TV broadcast, Beck expressed his vehement support for the bailout, stating, “The $700 billion dollars that you’re hearing about now is not only I believe necessary, it is also not nearly enough.” However, as soon as Bush left office and Obama picked up the baton and continued the same financial policy, he changed his tune and routinely attacked the bailout as an example of how socialism was taking over America.

TARP was framed as an "emergency" in Sept. 2008 by economists, and by January 2009 many components were broken down and discovered to be packaged goodies for banks. Dinging Beck for that doesn't work for me.

In addition, Beck aggressively attacked Ron Paul and his supporters during the election campaign when it looked like the Texan Congressman might have a real chance of winning the nomination. Beck implied that Ron Paul supporters were domestic terrorists and should be dealt by the US Army...

Firstly, had some good ideas and views, but he N-E-V-E-R had a chance of winning the Presidential nomination. Get real. Secondly, "implied" RP supporters were "terrorists"? I don't know how legit that charge is, but some Paul supporters ARE moonbat-loony.

Beck has ceaselessly attacked 9/11 truthers as dangerous extremists, echoing precisely talking points put out by Obama information czar Cass Sunstein. Just last week Beck said on his nationally syndicated radio show that there are 9/11 truth activists in the White House and they threaten the life of Obama.

I disagree with Beck in this regard. He ain't perfect.

Why would an obviously faked video of a plane hitting the WTC be aired on International news? Why wouldn't they just use a real video of the plane?

The relationship between morality and liberty is a directly proportional one.

Speaking of Beck, how many people does everyone think were really at Saturday's rally? Based on the pic I'd guess 100K tops.

Glenn Beck calls for national revival - James Hohmann - POLITICO.com

"Hello, America. I have just gotten word from the media that there is over a thousand people here today," Beck said, with a hint of sarcasm. He later said he had heard the crowd was between 300,000 and 500,000, "and if that's coming from the media, God only knows."

some Paul supporters ARE moonbat-loony.

But I suspect more of Beck's followers would fit into that category. Especially given all the police state $#it he actively supports (like the Patriot Act). No actual patriot supports anything like that. Nor do they support having troops scattered all over the world being used by the UN or using our soldiers in "wars" which have not been declared by Congress. There's a LOT of reasons why I don't support Beck. As for your claim that Beck isn't perfect, I don't believe anyone here thought he was.

Actually, he doesn't support the Patriot Act any longer. He's stated such explicitly many times the last few years. He says he did initially, and he assumed it would sunset and go away, but it hasn't and he sees it now as a dupe pulled on us all and a severe danger to liberty.

or do they support having troops scattered all over the world being used by the UN or using our soldiers in "wars" which have not been declared by Congress.

The last 6-8 months or so, he's changed his tune on that as well. Again, clearly stated that we shouldn't have troops everywhere, but he doesn't think that they can all be brought home immediately next week without causing huge disruptions in the world. Not a perfect view, but he has changed it significantly to be certain.

As I've stated on other posts, he seems to be going through an intellectual transformation from neocon to actual libertarian. He's clearly not completed that transformation, but he is on the way from everything I'm hearing him say.

Well, if he ever actually makes it to real libertarian and figures out that there is nothing wrong with "truthers" (that he mocks--what does he prefer, liars?) I might pay some attention to him. It would be good if he took off the blinders and maybe he will. As I have seen you state, none of us came into the world knowing what we know after years of study and trial and error. Or words to that effect anyway. If I know someone is actually trying I will cut them some slack but when someone badmouths people just because they don't swallow the government's fairy tale about 9/11 hook, line and sinker, I take that into account.
