Does America not realize that this has to stop??!!!!!!! The people that support people like Beck, Rush, Palin have a history of doing things like blowing up the federal building in Oklahoma, bombing abortion clinics, and so on hiding behind the premiss of freedom of speech and right to bare arms. But like Palin said, Our troops are dying to protect that same freedom. So why do people like her and Beck, and Rush keep up the voice that supports domestic terrorism? One word….MONEY! What price will FOX be willing to pay then?
I once saw an Oprah Winfrey show where she was interviewing a rapper and pretty much putting him down because he used slander against woman and glorified the gangsta life. The rapper said that his lyrics were meant to be in the third person and it didn’t reflect his own views, an excuse I’ve heard before. She told him that he needed to be more responsible because the majority of his audience didn’t realize that and assumed that he did indeed believe what he said. The same can be said about Beck who basically is a moron and the Rush Limbaughs of the world. Their rhetoric inflames these hateful people, and yet they recoil in horror when you tell them so. Like Barnicale said, they know exactly what they are doing. They have found a very lucrative gravy train and are milking it for it’s worth. It may be show business for them but people who think they are of the same mind really believe them. The world needs to stop this hatred.
So NBC, the National Barack Channel, has a problem with Obama being busted out for having a racist reaction to the Crowley Case? No surprise there. The comments here about that, however, are sad. They reflect the same ignorance and blind eyes that elected Obama to lead America. There’s no hope for those that will not see what is right before them. The current power in America is showing its true colors more every day. Thankfully most Americans are intelligent enough to recognize that - hence the polls. Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck are quicker, smarter and brighter than many, and like Paul Revere, are carrying lanterns necessary to warn the nation. Listen, don’t listen, no one cares whether you do or not - and none of us will bother to say ‘I told you so’ when the time comes. It would be a waste of breath.
I will start this by saying that obama is not a racist. Beck took this too far in that regard, but doesnt change the fact that obama should just shut his mouth when he doesnt know the facts. Condemning the police force without out knowing anything was a stupid and ignorant thing to do. While Rush and Beck sometimes take it too far, they provide a much needed voice in the media. Cornell needs to shut his mouth and look at facts. Supporting Domestic Terrorism really? Hannity, Rush and company give me the other side of the issues. I dont want to listen to nbc, cbs, or abc drool over there anointed obama, because I know I wont get the full story.
Obama’s racist because he happens to believe racism still exists? I will admit, he responded stupidly when asked about the case but he made a point to say “even when it’s not a case of racism, you can’t help but think it may be.” I’m glad he made his dumb comment in front of America instead of ignoring race like “I don’t see people in terms of color.” Look at how bad he’s haggled with birthers and about his middle name, but people want him to stay quiet and say all is well. Bump that.
@CoCo Joe
Ignorance of what greater truth? I feel I was misguided in voting for Obama because I was under the impression he was going to immediately allow gay marriage, repeal the dozens of executive orders of the previous president, legalize marijuana, destroy the health care system and it’s companies to build a national health care system that covers every single person, prosecute the Bush administration for lying to the American people, and end the war in Iraq and focus on citizen security. Sure it’s a lot to hope for, but I figured it was possible. Maybe you’d prefer America to be defined as a capitalistic nation and allow most people to suffer for the sake of lining the pockets of the already rich. You probably wish there was no minimum wage so the Middle class can polarize into the poor like they’ve already been pushed to. You’d like it for thousands of families to be torn apart by financial ruin due to rising costs of health care. You’d rather see our nation’s youth dying overseas than putting our taxes to something better, like an actual educational program besides the failed NCLB act that will allow our poorer children to achieve what many of us take for granted. You’d rather see thousands of non-violent citizens put in jail for years to become further hardened criminals instead of swallowing your pride and say you were wrong and the facts point to far less problems than other legalized drugs like tobacco and alcohol. You’d hate to wake up every morning and know thousands of gay couples are legally married like other, straight people. Maybe you should start caring more about other people than you do yourself, and when that starts happening you’ll suddenly find that reality has a liberal bias.
Glen Beck only cares about ratings…as does Rush and all the gang. It is only about their pocketbooks. Would the world please start to understand that these guys will say anything, lie about anything and be used by anybody as long as it positively impacts their paycheck!!! And we call the wall st guys greedy. These guys are the worst!!!
He did attend a racist church for 20 yrs. Hmm…
he attended a realistic church for 20 years.
and in reply to the comment in the clip about if someone had called bush a racist, someone did, Kanye West, and many people took offense to it
Well, if folks like Rush Limbaugh and Glen Beck are taking these extreme opinions just to line their pockets with cash, perhaps we as a society should start getting together and make “compassion” and “respect” profitable.
If money is what “they” want, then make what “we” want profitable. Impossible?
The reason “hatred” and “bigotry” is so profitable might have to do with the fact that it’s entertaining. Watching others suffer, hate, or create controversy has been a source of comedy for decades.
How do we make “treating each other with respect and compassion” entertaining?
My theory is that as long as we broadcast entertainment for the enjoyment of millions, others will suffer.
Do we actually need “hatred” to keep our blood boiling, to keep us alive? To keep life interesting with drama and tragedy and comedy? A continuous war of egos?
These are all questions because, like most of you, I don’t have any answers. Just opinions.
So, what do we do now?
I love how we have a “black President”, right up until the moment he say’s something racist, then he it is quickly pointed out he is “half white”.
Tell you what you stupid drones, instead of making a big deal about what Glenn Beck said, talk about what Obama said. But no, no one in the left wing media will do that. Better off to change the subject matter and protect the moron in the Oval Office, then to deal with the issue. Beck is entilted to his opinion (and considering his ratings, many want to hear his opinion, just as the morons on NBC are entitled to theirs. It just so happens not as many want to hear theirs.
Bush gets called a racist, and nobody says anything, Obama gets called a racist, and his own personal TV network is out in full force to defend him.
And you people complain about Fox. At least I’ve seen people from both sides on their shows.
